Karl McCartney – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the HM Treasury

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Karl McCartney on 2016-06-07.

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether he has seen the latest draft of the EU Commission’s proposals for the (a) EU Budget and (b) any re-assessment and adjustments relating to previous years budgets; and if he will publish those proposals and their effect on the public purse before 23 June 2016.

Mr David Gauke

We have not received any unpublished EU budget proposals or any re-assessments and adjustments relating to EU budgets of previous years. Any budget proposals must conform to the legally binding annual expenditure ceilings agreed in the Multiannual Financial Framework 2014-2020.
