I received a positive response from the parties. The introduction of increased transparency of donations to Northern Ireland parties was also a Conservative Manifesto commitment at the recent Parliamentary election.

The Government and Department are continuing to engage on this issue with the Executive and the Northern Ireland Minister of Health in particular and his department.</p><p><br> <br></p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 12/10/2020 16:41:28 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

In the meantime, though, we acknowledge that Northern Ireland’s unique circumstances cannot simply be ignored, especially given the pressures that we have seen in the continued absence of an Executive.</p><p> </p><p>That is why I announced during the Second Reading of the Northern Ireland Budget Bill on 13 November our commitment to make available £50m from the Confidence and Supply Agreement for addressing immediate health and education pressures in the 2017/18 financial year. If the Northern Ireland administration confirm that they would access this in 2017/18, that funding would form part of the Supplementary Estimates process in the New Year and be subject to the full authorisation of the House of Commons.</p><p /> answering member constituency Old Bexley and Sidcup answering member printed James Brokenshire question first answered 16/11/2017 12:36:01 answering member 1530 label Biography information for James Brokenshire previous answer version 13527 answering member constituency Old Bexley and Sidcup answering member printed James Brokenshire answering member 1530 label Biography information for James Brokenshire
