Conor Murphy who was a member of the Sinn Féin delegation that recently met with the new British Secretary of State, Hilary Benn, has said that fair funding is essential for investment in Health, Education and Public Services.
The Economy Minister said,
“A Sinn Féin delegation led by First Minister Michelle O Neill met with the new British Secretary of State, Hilary Benn.
We strongly made the case for fair funding to invest in health, education and public services, the building of Casement Park to host Euro 2028, and the repealing of the Legacy Act”.
The Newry and Armagh MLA continued,
“We also urged the British Government to respect our right to self-determination as support for constitutional change grows.
People here are increasingly looking towards the future and to a new Ireland that ensures the best opportunities in life for everyone who calls our island home”.
