Alison Thewliss – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the HM Treasury

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Alison Thewliss on 2016-06-24.

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, if the Government will bring forward proposals to underwrite all EU funding for projects in Scotland in response to the result of the referendum on the UK’s membership of the EU.

Mr David Gauke

As the Prime Minister has made clear, while the UK remains a member of the EU, current EU funding arrangements continue unchanged. It will be for the new Government to begin the negotiation to leave, and set out arrangements for those currently in receipt of EU funds.
