The government's £3.3bn financial package does not mean there is much respite for public services.
Stormont ministers will be called to "a vote on account" to authorise spending until a budget is in placeIt is not an ideal situation but it is manageable.
But added that those efficiencies will not bridge the entire spending gap and that some will only be achieved through upfront investment.Robin Swann said it was a wrestle in the mud for a knife when describing budgeting for the health service"We need to push back against any notion that there is a magic reform fairy who can wave a wand, save us billions, transform services overnight and turn grey skies blue," he told an audience of GPs.
However, the increase for the justice department has been just 3% and efficiencies are "all maxed out"."We are in a very critical situation and 2024/25 is the most challenging year we have ever had." About £685m of the £3.3bn Stormont restoration financial package is earmarked to settle pay claims for 2023/24.
