Louise O'Reilly (Dublin Fingal, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

We will be very happy to take the Minister up on the offer of a meeting. We want to see some progress. It is not as if we would have to reinvent the wheel because there are already circumstances in which health services in both jurisdictions are accessible from either side of the Border. It is possible to do this. I do not want to pour cold water on the Minister's commitment, but while we welcome the offer of a meeting, we are conscious of the fact that, albeit the numbers are small, women continue to travel. While I accept that €450 may not be a barrier for some women, it is a significant barrier for many others-----
