Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:
To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, pursuant to the Answer of 26 November 2021 to Question 80317 on UK Community Renewal Fund, what assessment he has made of the impact on the roll out of the UK Shared Prosperity Fund of delays to and the deadline extension to 30 June 2022 for the delivery of projects under the Community Renewal Fund.
To ensure that successful applicants still have the same delivery window as set out in the fund prospectus, we have extended the delivery timeline for the UKCRF by three months to 30 June 2022. Later this year we will publish an Investment Framework for the UK Shared Prosperity Fund which will commence in 2022.
