Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, with reference to the Answer of 26 March 2026 to Question 113590 on Erasmus+ Programme: Finance, what the planned timetable is for the negotiation of the next Multiannual Financial Framework.

We have successfully finalised the UK’s association to Erasmus+ in 2027. This agreement explicitly recognises that any future agreement into the next Multiannual Financial Framework must also reflect a fair balance of financial contributions and be informed by the experience of participation in 2027.

We will need to agree specific terms for the 2028-2024 Multiannual Financial Framework in due course. Our immediate focus is to continue to work with institutions and our young people to maximise take-up across all sectors, so that the benefits of Erasmus+ association in 2027 can be fully realised.
