Northern Ireland is to get a further £300m in funding from the UK government to tackle the Covid-19 pandemic.

The money can be spent now or carried into the new financial year in April, which the Treasury says shows “unprecedented flexibility”.

The further funding was welcomed by Finance Minister Conor Murphy: “I’m pleased flexibility has been granted in relation to this funding which will ensure continued support for the health service, individuals and businesses in the tough months ahead.”
