The Welsh Government must work hard with partner organisations to ensure that Wales does not lose out on European funding in three years time, according to a report from the European and External Affairs Committee of the National Assembly for Wales published in December 2009. Wales currently qualifies for up to two billion pounds in EU funds under what is called ‘cohesion policy’. The European Structural Funds programmes are designed to support the Welsh economy, help generate jobs and raise living standards. But unless transitional arrangements are put in place after 2013 it is possible that Wales will not qualify for any more financial help from Europe. |
