Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, from which part of the Government's budget the £1.5 billion package of funding attributed to the supply and confidence deal with the Democratic Unionist Party came; and whether the funding for that deal had any implications for other spending commitments.

The Government routinely makes adjustments to public spending throughout the year and will deal with the cost of additional resources for the Northern Ireland Executive within our overall plans in this way.
