Question
to the Northern Ireland Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, what steps his Department is taking to support exporters in Northern Ireland.
Answered by Conor Burns
The Government is committed to supporting Northern Ireland exporters, who I regularly visit.
Through the New Deal, we have invested £8 million to expand Invest NI’s presence overseas.
I am pleased that exporters, including some who I have visited such as Armagh Cider Company, Mash Direct, and Kiverco, are reaching out to access the specialist support offered by the DIT hub in Northern Ireland, which also includes access to the Export Academy, to help businesses trade globally.

Question
to the Northern Ireland Office:
What support his Department is providing to the health service in Northern Ireland during the covid-19 outbreak.
Answered by Robin Walker
The UK Government and Northern Ireland Executive are communicating at all levels, with the NI Health Minister regularly attending the Government’s health meetings. So far £1.2bn has been made available to the Executive to support the response to Covid-19.
We will continue to support the Health Service in Northern Ireland in any way possible, such as the Government’s UK-wide drive to increase testing and PPE supply. As part of this, we have rolled out three test facilities in Northern Ireland - Belfast, Londonderry, and Craigavon - for the testing of frontline and key workers.
