The UK Government is committed to delivering for the most vulnerable in our society. I hope that today’s announcement by @DWPgovuk of the 2023 Cost of Living Payment support package will bring reassurance to families in NI & the rest of the UK, worst affected by rising costs.
RT @DWPgovuk: "This is all part of a £26 billion package for 2023 and beyond to help every household in the UK with the rising cost of living" - Minister for Social Mobility @mimsdavies

NI households will receive help with their energy bills with a £600 payment beginning in January.
I am grateful that officials, Ministers & suppliers have found a solution, especially given the complexity of NI’s energy market, but I would rather this delivered by the Executive.
RT @NIOgov: NEW: All homes in Northern Ireland to receive £600 energy bills support this January 💡
A single lump-sum will be paid to every household irrespective of how homes are heated…

218 days after the May Assembly election, MLAs are in a state of stagnation as the political stalemate continues.
This is unacceptable.
I have notified MLAs of a 27.5% reduction to their pay. This figure remains under review.

I have written to NI’s MLAs to inform them I will cut their pay by 27.5%. That political stalemate persists 218 days after May’s Assembly election is unacceptable.
Elected representatives cannot fulfil all their duties. This pay cut is unfortunate but necessary.
RT @NIOgov: The Secretary of State @chhcalling has made a determination on MLA pay and allowances. MLA pay will be cut by 27.5% from 1 January 2023.

Northern Ireland has a wealth of skills and expertise that the government is committed to promoting on the international stage.
