Article summary

The Department for International Development (DFID) has announced that the UK will continue to take part in programmes funded under the existing 2014–2010 Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) until their conclusion. Most of the programmes will therefore continue to benefit from EU funding, with some likely receive funding past 2020 and the end of the period of transition. DFID has also said that UK entities can continue to bid for funding under the existing MFF programme, meaning that the financial assurance implemented to safeguard funds in a no-deal scenario is no longer necessary.
