The money will be split between England, Wales and Northern Ireland and the division of the funding has yet to be agreed.
The European Commission Decision that was approved by the Standing Committee allows allocated EU funding to be used to reimburse member states for three measures: the costs of tuberculin testing, gamma interferon blood testing and compensation for cattle slaughtered.
The Decision sets out the maximum of the costs that member states can claim for each:
tuberculin test: €1.75 per test
gamma-interferon test: €5 per test
compensation: €375 per animal.
