As for what has been said regarding cross-Border co-operation in health care, one practical consideration is there must be a tie-up between the Departments of Health and Transport, Tourism and Sport on the development of the road infrastructure between counties Monaghan, Cavan, Fermanagh and Armagh, because at present it is atrocious. Over the past 40 years, this infrastructure has never been developed and to get from one county to another at present is a nightmare. That must be developed in co-ordination between the aforementioned Departments.
