Funding and delivery of public services: follow up

Inquiry

The Northern Ireland Affairs Committee is launching a follow-up inquiry into the funding of public services in Northern Ireland.

The inquiry is looking at the challenges facing Northern Ireland’s public services (including health, education and the police) and considering: Northern Ireland’s level of need relative to the rest of the UK; the implications of the Autumn Budget for NI public services; and what measures might be included in Northern Ireland's Final Fiscal Framework, including options for raising revenue.
