Proceeding contribution from Lord Coaker (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 13 November 2017. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Northern Ireland Budget Bill.


Northern Ireland Budget Bill

I just seek to understand the figures that the Secretary of State has given out, and this relates to the question raised by the hon. Member for Upper Bann (David Simpson). Our understanding is that we can be talking only about 95%. Does that amount to a £600 million reduction in spending ability for the Departments in Northern Ireland? Who will decide which Departments face the reductions to make that £600 million reduction?
