MEP warns against any slippage on future EU Cohesion and agriculture funding – McGuinness

There should be no slippage in future EU payments for Cohesion and agricultural policies. That’s the warning from the Fine Gael MEP Mairead McGuinness.

The Midlands North-West MEP was speaking in Strasbourg where the European Parliament this week reiterated its position on the EU’s future budget post 2020.

In a vote on Wednesday, MEPs confirmed their position on the next EU long-term budget which will run from twenty twenty one (2021) to twenty twenty seven (2027).

The Parliament has set out a range of priorities for future funding including long-standing farming and cohesion policies which they say should not be reduced.

Here’s Mairead McGuinness.

Out words: those priorities
