The 'Beige' Budget
J
11:14Jodie CarsonGUEST
I was just going to say that I think one thing that strikes me is that when we talk about relative need and we talk about the 124 versus the 127, what we're really talking about largely there is current expenditure, resource expenditure, because it's very service-based.
J
11:27Jodie CarsonGUEST
So all things said, we do need to do things differently and we need to get things over the line and we need to look at incentives.
J
11:32Jodie CarsonGUEST
To go back to the point of whether we are sufficiently funded, there probably is a significant economic argument for a review of Northern Ireland's capital need.
J
11:41Jodie CarsonGUEST
And that goes to some of the work that you've done, Andrew, around investing in infrastructure and so on.
J
11:49Jodie CarsonGUEST
Again, all the focus has been quite narrow in the sense that we're only looking at resource need and how much we have in pounds, shilling and pence, as opposed to looking at how we're spending money, whether there's capital issues around a legacy of underinvestment in the past, that there might be legitimacy there in that argument, that we are not adequately funded.
