Recommendation
The UK Government must clarify how and when EU rural development funding, including the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) and European Maritime Fisheries Fund (EMFF), will be replaced. Otherwise, there is a risk that expertise and capacity built up through delivering those funds will be lost. (Paragraph 19) Allocation of funding
Government Response Summary
The government will consider at Spending Review 2021 whether to replace LEADER and EAFRD funding through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund or other farm support programmes, thereby deferring clarification on how and when this funding will be replaced.
