answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/12/2023 answer text <p>Transport is a devolved matter in Northern Ireland. It is for the Northern Ireland Department for Infrastructure to make decisions on transport-related funding and spending decisions.</p><p>As I set out in my Written Ministerial Statement to Parliament on 27 April, Northern Ireland Office officials and I have worked intensively with the Northern Ireland departments to set a budget for Northern Ireland for the 2023-24 financial year. This year's budget allocation from the UK Government gave the Northern Ireland Department of Infrastructure a total allocation of £523 million.</p><p>It remains our firm view that the right people to make these decisions are locally elected politicians in a fully functioning Northern Ireland Executive and Assembly. That is why this Government is doing all it can to engage with the party leaders to support a return to stable government so that these important issues can be addressed by those elected to do so.</p> answering member constituency Daventry answering member printed Chris Heaton-Harris question first answered 20/12/2023 15:01:36 answering member 3977 label Biography information for Chris Heaton-Harris

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/06/2021 answer text <p>As a matter of practice, the BBC has, since March 2020, provided BSL interpretation on its News Channel in respect of the vast majority of Covid media briefings, and continues to do so. A clean feed of the BSL interpretation has, since May, been made available for use on government social media channels.</p><p>In the relatively rare event that the BBC chooses not to provide BSL interpretation, we will be notified in advance of the briefing. We will then arrange for an independent organisation to provide BSL interpretation of the briefing in question, further to an arrangement that came into effect on 26 November. That BSL interpretation will be made available on government social media channels (including the No 10 YouTube channel). It will also be made available to broadcasters and other media outlets for TV and social media channels.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hornchurch and Upminster answering member printed Julia Lopez question first answered 07/06/2021 12:03:38 answering member 4647 label Biography information for Julia Lopez
