To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Scott of Bybrook on 2 February (HL4921), why the Levelling Up Fund Round 2 allocated (1) 9.98 per cent of funding to Wales against an entitlement share of 4.70 per cent of UK funds under the Barnett formula, (2) 3.41 per cent to Northern Ireland against an entitlement share of 2.75 per cent, and (3) 8.49 per cent to Scotland against an entitlement share of 8.08 per cent.

I refer the noble Lord to the answer to Question UIN HL4921 on 2 February 2023.
