Answer
The Executive agreed, on 5 December 2024, to extend the existing mitigations schemes for another 3 years.
There is no current timetable for a further review of mitigations.
It will be for the Executive to decide on any future mitigation package of new measures and to consider the allocation of the additional funding such a package might require.
