Gabhaim buíochas leis an leas-Chéad Aire as ucht a ráitis. It is a significant milestone for the four-party Executive, particularly as it sets out the priorities of the draft PFG for the rest of the mandate. How confident is the deputy First Minister that the draft PFG commitments will be delivered?
