Thank you for the invitation. It was an honour to present our research at Stormont earlier this week to members of the NI Assembly and of the Oireachtas. Lots of interesting questions and discussion!

Have some analysis of the parties spending plans on TheJournal.ie. In short: Fine Gael, Fianna Fáil and Sinn Féin all have serious questions to answer
