Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
To ask Her Majesty's Government when they will publish the prospectus for the UK Shared Prosperity Fund; and what criteria will be used in assessing bids.
The UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF) will help to level up and create opportunity across the UK for places most in need, such as ex-industrial areas, deprived towns and rural and coastal communities, and for people who face labour market barriers.
The Government will publish a UK-wide investment framework in the Spring and confirm multi-year funding profiles at the next Spending Review.
