<p>Like all Departments the Northern Ireland Office is planning for a number of EU
Exit scenarios to make sure we are ready on Day 1. EU Exit affects a number of work
areas across the Department and will therefore encompass a proportion of workload
for staff, the amount of which will vary over time.</p><p> </p><p>Over £250m of additional
funding has been approved across a number of Departments in 2017/18 to prepare for
Brexit. The Northern Ireland Office has received additional funding this year, and
has reprioritised to meet new pressures arising from Brexit preparations. Additional
funding received from the reserve for 2017/18 will be set out at Supplementary Estimates.
Decisions on funding in future years will be confirmed at a later date.</p>
