Promised funding must now be delivered - Murphy

Following his appointment as Finance Minister, Conor Murphy has said it’s time for the two Governments to deliver the promised financial package.

Minister Murphy said: “The New Decade, New Approach document presented by the Governments contains ambitious commitments for public services and workers. To deliver these commitments, the Governments pledged a substantial injection of funding, over and above the block grant.

“The local parties have done their part by restoring the power-sharing Executive. The two Governments must now honour their pledge and provide the funding needed to deliver on the New Decade, New Approach document.”
