Question:
To ask the Minister of Finance in the event of continued closures due to COVID restrictions, whether the Localised Restrictions Support Scheme will be extended into the 2021-22 financial year.

Answer:

It is my intention to continue with the Localised Restrictions Support Scheme in tandem with progress made against the Executive’s Pathway out of Restrictions document and the removal of restrictions on various categories of business, subject to the funds being available to the Executive to continue to provide this support.
