The return of power-sharing in Northern Ireland marks a significant occasion, with Chancellor Rishi Sunak emphasizing the importance of addressing pressing socio-economic issues and the need for immediate action and cooperation among the political parties. The resumption of power-sharing in Stormont allows for the addressing of long-standing challenges, with a focus on issues such as funding stability and the delivery of public services. The return of power-sharing was prompted by the restoration of Northern Ireland's government after two years of deadlock, following a deal struck with the UK Government and a significant funding package of £3.3 billion offered by Westminster.
