Text
I thank the Member for giving way. As my colleague said, we take the point about a better funding model from Westminster. Will the Member acknowledge two things, however? First, her party, with the DUP, has been in government for 20 years. There has been huge mismanagement and wastage of public funds across all Departments that has been highlighted continually by the Northern Ireland Audit Office (NIAO).Secondly, we have benefited from substantial investment from the Irish Government through the Shared Island Fund and other projects.
