Catherine Martin (Dublin Rathdown, Green Party) | Oireachtas source

I am in absolute agreement with the Deputy, and that is why I so warmly welcome the restoration of the Assembly and Executive. I am really looking forward to working with my counterpart in the Executive and to the early convening of the North–South Ministerial Council. I have made contact with the office of the minister, Conor Murphy, and am looking forward to setting up a call at the earliest opportunity. There will be amazing shared opportunities in the period ahead to ensure the all-Ireland economy is supported. It is a source of prosperity, positivity, growth and livelihoods for many from all communities across this island.
