The session covered the Arts & Culture and Community & Regeneration Streamlined Routes from January 2026, as well as the newly published Housing Streamlined Route, noting its high maximum subsidy thresholds and other distinctive features. The speakers also explored how to effectively manage the awarding of subsidies under the Streamlined Routes.
Finally, the webinar examined the recent judgment of the Competition Appeal Tribunal in Bristol Airport v the Welsh Ministers [2026] and its broader implications for subsidy management and strengthening challenge resilience.
