Apparently published in error on Monday 16 November and withdrawn on Wednesday 18 November, the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) published a list of Councils across England that will receive a share of a £10 million budget to support their preparations for the end of the Brexit transition period.
The Fund is intended to help councils prepare for changes at the border, bolstering local plans to ensure operations can continue to run smoothly at the end of the transition period.
