Committee engagement with 2023/24 departmental budgets
- Date: 04/03/2024
This Briefing Paper aims to facilitate Northern Ireland Assembly committees (statutory committees and Audit Committee), when engaging with departments near the end of the current financial year - 2023/24 – and in anticipation of a (draft) Executive Budget 2024/25 for the next financial year commencing 1 April 2024. Such committee engagement occurs after numerous developments relating to Northern Ireland budgeting and public spending have arisen since the Executive fell in February 2022 and until it returned in February 2024. The Paper’s contents are not exhaustive given variance in the information available to RaISe at the time of writing. Potential scrutiny issues are outlined throughout for the committees’ consideration when discharging their advisory and scrutiny functions.
