Nia Griffith – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the HM Treasury

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Nia Griffith on 2016-07-18.

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether he plans to make additional funding available to Wales after the UK’s exit from the European Union.

Mr David Gauke

The people of the UK have voted to leave the EU. It would not be appropriate to commit, without due consideration, to continuing to spend money over a long period as if we had not voted to leave the EU. But the Government remains committed to encouraging economic growth across the regions and nations of the UK. The Government is therefore carefully considering the use of these funds and will make an announcement on EU funding in due course.
