Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have, if any, to provide additional police funding to the Northern Ireland Executive as a result of the costs incurred in policing the recent street disorder in Belfast.
On 18 June the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland announced a £4 million one‑off in‑year funding provision to provide immediate support to the Police Service of Northern Ireland given the significant challenges they faced in confronting the disorder.
The emergency funding will help with the costs incurred by the PSNI during the disorder, including the cost of the Mutual Aid support and overtime paid to police officers.
