This additional funding allocation means there is a revised total grant-in aid-budget of £984,849, 100 for the 2025-26 financial year, as set out in Annex 1  \nThe revised funding allocations in Annex 1 are provided for Medr to perform its functions held under relevant legislation, particularly the Tertiary Education and Research (Wales) Act 2022 as commenced. The funding is also provided to perform those functions it is exercising on behalf of the Welsh Ministers, as set out in the Agency Agreement between Medr and the Welsh Ministers made under section 83 of the Government of Wales Act 2006.  \nThe funding will be monitored against delivery. In accordance with the Framework Document, timely forecasts and monitoring information should be provided to officials, including prompt notification of any expected overspends and underspends. Ministers may adjust the grant in-year accordingly if required through the supplementary budget process.
