British-Irish Agreement (Amendment) Bill, 2002: Second Stage.

 

The Good Friday Agreement provided for greater levels of co-operation in six main areas: transport, agriculture, education, health, environment and tourism. It was decided that structures should be put in place to carry out the policies agreed by the North-South Ministerial Council and that these structures would be Waterways Ireland, the Food Safety Promotion Board, the Special EU Programmes Body, the North-South Language Body, and the Foyle-Carlingford and Irish Lights Commission. It was also agreed that Tourism Ireland would be created to market the island of Ireland as an international tourism destination.
