This instrument amends Regulation 1303/2013 laying down common provisions to allow programmes currently funded by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) and the European and Maritime and Fisheries Fund (EMFF) to continue to receive funding for the 2014-2020 programme after EU exit. Regulation 1303/2013, as it applies to the European Social Fund (ESF) and the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), will be amended by a separate instrument. This instrument also amends the Common Agricultural Policy (Control and Enforcement, Cross-Compliance, Scrutiny of Transactions and Appeals) Regulations 2014. It amends the definition of the Common Provisions Regulation so that it refers to Regulation 1303/2013, as amended by this instrument.
