Brexit Preparations Update: Discussion
Stephen Donnelly (Wicklow, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source
I wish to return to the cross-border directive. It is in place and we are 26 working days away from God knows what. My understanding of what Mr. Breslin is saying is that there is an active agreement in place such that on the 27th day, people will be able to continue to go to Belfast, Derry or wherever, they will pay for their treatment as they currently do and the HSE will reimburse them when they return. Can Mr. Breslin confirm that is the case and that there is an agreement, in writing, between the two Governments to the effect that it will continue?
