Question:
To ask the Minister of Finance for an update on when the Northern Ireland Fiscal Council will be placed on a statutory footing.

Answer:

The Bill to place the Fiscal Council on a statutory footing has been included in the Executive’s legislative programme for this year (2024/25). The drafting of the Bill is at an advanced stage, and I anticipate introducing it to the Assembly before the summer recess.
