Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, for what reasons the public consultation on the UK Shared Prosperity Fund has been delayed.
The Government continues to agree the terms of our departure from the EU and continues to plan for all scenarios. It remains committed to consulting on the UK Shared Prosperity Fund. This will give all interested parties the chance to inform final decisions on the Fund, which are due to be taken at the spending review.
