About these Events
The Subsidy Control Act 2022 provides the framework for a new, UK-wide subsidy control regime. This regime will enable public authorities, including devolved administrations and local authorities, to give subsidies that are tailored to their local needs and that drive economic growth, while minimising distortion to UK competition and investment and protecting our international obligations.
More information on the new regime can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/subsidy-control-regime.
These online advice sessions are for public authorities in England to talk to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy’s (BEIS) Subsidy Control casework team about subsidies and schemes that public authorities are designing under the new Subsidy Control Act.
Following registration, public authorities can forward questions/issues they want to discuss with the casework team up to 48 hours in advance of the session. Please send any questions to: subsidycontrol.engagement@beis.gov.uk.
Public authorities in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland should contact the subsidy control teams in the Scottish Government, Welsh Government and Northern Ireland Civil Service for advice:
- Subsidy Control Division (Scotland): subsidycontrol@gov.scot
- Subsidy Contol Team (Wales): State.Aid@gov.wales
