Cash management and departmental supply

All central government income and expenditure flows through the Northern Ireland Consolidated Fund.

Departments forecast their monthly block grant requirements which are drawn down from Her Majesty's Treasury (HMT), through the Northern Ireland Office (NIO). Any daily surplus balances in the government pool of accounts are invested with the Bank of England by Government Accounts Branch (DoF). The branch also ensures that the daily cash requirements of all departments (including EU monies) are met and in so doing disburses some £14 billion in annual supply.
