I was glad that the Executive were able to agree £20 million for new social housing in the June monitoring round. There was a limited pot of capital available to us to allocate and a huge volume of bids. That was also the case when we were setting the Budget, so I was pleased that we were able to allocate a…

I wrote to the Chief Secretary to the Treasury back in April to ask for £180 million to be reprofiled in 2024-25 from the repurposed funds in the financial package to support Education Authority pay and grading review workers.

Obviously, VAT is a reserved matter. My officials engage regularly with their counterparts in Treasury. We have made the case on many occasions, and will continue to make the case, that, for example, we should have the ability to reduce VAT for hospitality and tourism. We are in the particular circumstance of having…

I put on record my thanks to the Justice Minister for her constructive engagement on setting the Budget and on June monitoring.

I do not have those figures in front of me, but it is not written off after a period.

I have set out my position on June monitoring and pre-election guidance to Mr O'Toole on, I think, four occasions. I considered the pre-election guidance, and I consider June monitoring to be normal and routine business for the Executive. The pre-election guidance is clear that each case should be considered on its…
