Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what information her Department holds on whether the British Council has produced guidance on grant reductions relating to the Erasmus programme.

Information on grant reductions is set out in EU documents, including the Erasmus+ Programme Guide, available at: https://erasmus-plus.ec.europa.eu/erasmus-programme-guide. An example of the relevant model grant agreement is available at: https://ec.europa.eu/info/funding-tenders/opportunities/docs/2021-2027/common/agr-contr/ls-mga_en.pdf.

As the Granting Authority, the National Agency will direct grant awardees to all relevant European Commission guidance on grant reductions under EU funding programmes as part of the grant management process.
