Recommendation 25

25 Paragraph: 84

UK Shared Prosperity Fund's 3-year allocation causes difficulties for long-term programmes

Conclusion
One criticism of the UKSPF, which has been reiterated is that funding is only allocated for 3 years. In comparison, previous EU funding was allocated over 7 years. The shorter time frame for this replacement fund has caused difficulties for many organisations who require a longer term in which to achieve the interventions for which they are seeking funding.
