Replacement of EU Funding for Community and Voluntary Sector (Revised Wording) - Amendment 2
Leave out all after ‘Development Fund’ and insert:
‘, the European Social Fund and the EU funded NI Rural Development Programme have had on our society; notes British Government failure to deliver on the commitment to fully replace EU funding after Brexit; further notes that the previous British Government's Shared Prosperity Fund does not constitute the full replacement of EU funding; recognises the uncertainty for community and voluntary sector organisations regarding the continuation of the Shared Prosperity Fund post 2025; further recognises the specific impact on rural communities from the loss of funding provided through the NI Rural Development Programme; calls for an end to the power grab undertaken by the previous British Government, reverting back to enabling distribution and decisions to be made locally; and further calls on the current British Government to fulfil its promise to replace EU funding in full and to provide certainty for community and voluntary sector organisations beyond March 2025.'
