HC Deb 17 February 2000 vol 344 c673W
Mr. Wigley

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what steps he is taking to ensure adequate finance from the Treasury on a contingency basis, to cover the eventuality that expenditure on Objective 1 schemes in Wales in the year 2000–01 exceeds the sums covered in the budget of the National Assembly, while still being within the limit laid down by the EU for that year.

Mr. Paul Murphy

The provisions for seeking additional finance from Treasury on an exceptional basis are detailed in "A Statement of Funding Policy", which was published by HM Treasury on 31 March 1999.
