Dr. John Bradley referred to stimulation. Could we stimulate in a much broader way the opportunities in tourism between the two? One of the criticisms in recent times has been the fact that the wonderful Wild Atlantic Way stops short of the Border. There is also the new tourism initiative called Ireland's Ancient East, which starts short of the Border. If there was one opportunity for all-Ireland co-operation, it surely would be tourism. We have a tourism body to do that but we do not seem to be using it to nearly the extent to which we should. I ask the delegates if they have any comments in this regard.
