Northern Ireland education to receive extra £30 million
The Northern Ireland secretary James Brokenshire has announced that more funds will be poured into the education sector following reallocation of money.
Known as the monitoring round, education will be getting £30 million from a £131 million pot.
The health sector will receive £60 million and the rest will be split between other departments, with civil servants in control of spending.
The secretary of state also noted that the funding is not part of the £1 billion agreed for Northern Ireland between the Conservative and Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) as part of a deal to secure support for Theresa May’s minority government.
