Public Expenditure: Northern Ireland

The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, to list chronologically the dates, the amounts and the purposes, of each new Barnett Consequential allocation made by the Treasury in relation to Northern Ireland from 1 January 2020 until the present.

Answered by Lucy Rigby

The Block Grant Transparency publication breaks down all changes in the devolved governments’ block grant funding from the 2015 Spending Review up to and including Spending Review 2025. The most recent report was published in October 2025. The report will be updated in due course.

It is for the Northern Ireland Executive to allocate its Barnett-based funding as they see fit, and they are accountable to the Northern Ireland Assembly for those decisions.
