Peadar Tóibín: Gabhaim míle buíochas leis na haíonna as teacht isteach inniu chun cur i láthair a thabhairt dúinn. I thank the representatives of CAWT for all the work they are involved in. There is an awful lot of common sense with cross-Border partnerships and co-operation. From my perspective, the Border is a threat to health in that it reduces the services that people need -...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Engagement with Co-operation and Working Together (10 Feb 2022)

Peadar Tóibín: Would it be possible to get a list of the services provided by CAWT, the services supported by CAWT and the services provided on a North-South basis? I would exclude the treatment purchase stuff because to a certain extent that can happen anywhere in Europe, does not really have an all-Ireland dimension per seand is often private. I would also like to get a list of what is not provided on a...

Peadar Tóibín: Mr. McCallion will provide figures in general if he can through the HSE and specifically for the services that CAWT provides and supports. The Good Friday Agreement has been in place for roughly 25 years. When I put questions to Ministers, they talk about InterTradeIreland and the wonderful stuff that is being done on a cross-Border basis. While I agree that these are wonderful things, I...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Engagement with Co-operation and Working Together (10 Feb 2022)

Peadar Tóibín: Scale is very important to me, although I appreciate that it might not be part of CAWT's mandate. I fully respect that CAWT is fulfilling its mandate. However, scale is important. Obviously, there are 1 million people on health waiting lists in the South, and 250,000 people in the North are on health waiting lists for over a year. How do we scale up the delivery of services on a...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Engagement with Co-operation and Working Together (10 Feb 2022)

Peadar Tóibín: Mr. McCallion mentioned community paramedics. Again, this question might not relate specifically to CAWT's mandate. It may do, however. Is there a cross-Border ambulance service? Is that a possibility? There would obviously be a benefit in it, considering it can be very difficult to get an ambulance in a Border area. Does CAWT's remit function in that space?

Peadar Tóibín: Covid-19 was obviously the biggest health threat to the island of Ireland over the past two years. Again this may be outside CAWT's mandate, but there were two separate approaches to restrictions and two separate vaccination programmes. Everything was disjointed between North and South. There were times when illness raged in the North and was lower in the South, yet we saw when Derry was...
