Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what funding has been awarded to each (a) nation and (b) region as part of the Government’s levelling up agenda during the 2019 Parliament.
This Government is committed to levelling up opportunity across all regions and nations of the United Kingdom, including by spreading funding across the UK. For example, as confirmed at the recent Spending Review, the government is investing to drive growth and regenerate places through the new Levelling Up Fund worth £4 billion for England, delivering a Shared Rural Network to extend 4G mobile coverage to 95% of the UK, and increasing the total Barnett Block Grant by £2.4bn for the Scottish Government, £1.3bn for the Welsh Government and £0.9bn for the Northern Irish Executive.
