Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement

Engagement with Institute of Public Health

2:00 am

Ms Sinéad Ward:

Interestingly, the association for cross-border entities has done a mapping exercise for the European Commission - I can send that paper in - which explains the vision more clearly. When you see the map of Europe with the yellow dots of where these b-solutions have been implemented, you will see lots of yellow around the Spain-Portugal border, all down the French border and along the borders of Italy, Germany and Poland. There are no yellow dots around Ireland. It is quite interesting. It is just blank. It has worked. I think it has looked at around 180 cases so far over the years.
