Summary

Northern Ireland’s public services are set to receive a hundred million pounds—but without a clear budget, will it be enough to truly turn things around?

This funding might be a lifeline—but the real challenge lies in making sure it actually works. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
