To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, what steps his Department is taking to help ensure that Wales receives an equitable share of funding allocated through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund following the UK's departure from the EU.

The UK Government will, at minimum, match EU funds in Wales through Wales’s share of the £2.6 billion UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF). Wales will also continue to benefit from EU funding over the coming years. Additionally, Wales will benefit from other local growth funding - including through the Levelling Up Fund and Community Ownership Fund.
Further information on UKSPF allocations will be announced in due course.
