That is why we will never be neutral in expressing our support for the Union and Northern Ireland\u2019s place within it\u201d. Northern Ireland benefits immensely from being part of the United Kingdom while the United Kingdom as a whole is stronger and better together.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>This Government firmly believes the Union is strongest when all its people can see and feel its benefits in their everyday lives. Northern Ireland benefits hugely from being an integral part of the world\u2019s sixth largest economy.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>The financial advantages of being in the Union can be clearly seen in the Chancellor\u2019s Autumn Statement, for example through the range of tax measures announced such as full expensing, that will help support local businesses. The National Insurance cut, combined with the increase in the National Living Wage, will mean a pay boost for nearly one million people in Northern Ireland. From January, 800,000 workers in Northern Ireland will benefit from £311 back into their pocket due to the National Insurance cut. The Belfast area has recently secured £3.8 million UK Government funding to become one of the UK\u2019s 10 5G Innovation Regions which will benefit local creative industries, advanced manufacturing, and transport and logistics.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>The UK Government was also proud to host the Northern Ireland Investment Summit, showcasing the opportunities across Northern Ireland for global investment, and highlighting the benefits of the Windsor Framework. This Government governs for the whole of the country, ensuring that the Union delivers for all citizens across every part of the UK.<\/p>"}
