Consultation on The Executive Office Budget Allocation for 2024 - 2025 launched
Date published:
The Executive Office has undertaken an Equality Impact Assessment on the proposals for allocating the Department’s budget allocation for 2024-2025. The process aims to avoid any adverse impacts and, where possible, take action to mitigate against specific adverse impacts.
The Equality Impact Assessment examines options for reductions and the equality impacts of these options. Consultation responses are also invited on the Rural Needs Impact Assessment (RNIA) and the Children’s Right’s Impact Assessment (CRIA).
The Department will consult for a 12-week period ending on 8 November 2024. Responses are particularly encouraged within the initial four weeks of the consultation period. Views received during this time will be used to inform the Department’s internal reallocations of funds to its business areas within TEO and its ALBs, as well as bids and allocations.
Responses received between Week 5 and Week 12 of the consultation will be used to consider further mitigation measures, to inform in-year budget reallocation processes, and to direct any additional funding (or further reductions) that emerge over the course of the financial year, such as during later Monitoring Rounds.
