Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether the legislative provisions of the European Commission, Proposal for a Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing a budget expenditure tracking and performance framework and other horizontal rules for the Union programmes and activities, COM/2025/545 final, July 2025, Article 18, will apply to UK participation in the Erasmus+ programme as a third country.

The document referred to is a proposal and is not currently law.

The UK will be utilising EU funds, and so EU legislation relating to their use may apply in certain circumstances.
