Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, whether he plans to update the guidance on the UK subsidy control regime.

The Department for Business and Trade keeps guidance on the subsidy control regime under regular review. The last substantive update to the statutory guidance was in December 2023 and the next update is planned for early 2025. The Department has also recently published two new guides to assist public authorities in completing subsidy control principles assessments.
