Hilary Benn

Labour — Leeds South

Speaking in the House of Commons on 24 July 2024

Debate

Barnett Formula

Contribution

I certainly do agree. All Governments, including the Northern Ireland Executive, have the money they have coming in, the money they can raise in addition, and how they will prioritise their spending. The Northern Ireland Executive have more funding per head of population than England, and it is for the Executive to take decisions about what their priorities are, and allocate funding accordingly.
