I welcome the funding and co-operation the Minister mentioned to seek European funding for cross-Border projects, particularly in respect of transport, but he did not reply regarding senior citizens travel. This issue could be progressed. I acknowledge that his Northern counterparts are looking at a new ticketing service. Have detailed discussions been held with them regarding the systems used here such as Smarter Travel, Leap card, apps and real time information provision and what they are doing in this regard to try to move us towards an integrated system across the island? That is important and it would have huge benefits.
