Question:
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure to detail (i) revenue; and (ii) capital financial support provided to Translink during (a) 2020/21 financial year to date; (ii) 2019/21 financial year; and (iii) 2018/19 financial year.

Answer:

My Department has allocated £132m to Translink to date in the 2020/21 financial year. This includes £50m of COVID-19 recovery funding and I will be allocating a further £20m based on the additional COVID-19 recovery funding announced for Translink in August. Capital funding allocated for the same period is £154.6m.

For 2018/19, my Department allocated £83.1m of revenue funding and £101m of capital funding. The revenue allocation for 2019/20 was £71.4m and a £100m capital allocation.
