To ask the First Minister and deputy First Minister, in assessing the value of a Delivery Unit based on the Welsh model, to detail any consideration that was given to the structural reality that the Welsh Government has a single Permanent Secretary, unlike Northern Irelands system of fully independent Departments.

In establishing the Delivery Unit, we have drawn on the principles and learning from a range of models, including but not limited to that adopted by the Welsh Government, while designing an approach that reflects our own distinctive circumstances. The Unit is intentionally flexible and its approach will continue to evolve as lessons are learned through evidence and experience, including what most effectively supports departments to deliver complex, crosscutting priorities.
