In the event that the UK leaves the EU without a deal, the Government has guaranteed EU Programme funding due to UK organisations.

Departments have well-developed contingency plans to implement this guarantee, if required. I refer the Hon. Member to the technical notices published by the Government on the guarantee. Departments have drafted the individual notices setting out how this guarantee will operate for specific programmes.
