Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement

Engagement with Institute of Public Health

2:00 am

Ms Sinéad Ward:

To be truthful, I do not think it is the Department of Health specifically. I am not sure which Department it would rest with to enact the legislation but I do understand from reading the legislation that there is a requirement for the Government to set up a co-ordination point - I think that is what it is called - to allow entities to come and say, "We have a problem cross-border." It might be data, problems around taxation of employees, travel problems or accessing funding and so on. It is supposed to be like a one-stop shop.
