The Council has also met four times in plenary format, twice in Dublin and twice in Armagh. These have been historic occasions. Ministers from both parts of the island have gathered around the table to discuss matters concerning the people of Ireland, North and South, and agree ways in which the two Administrations can work together for the benefit of all. The Government looks forward to renewed engagement with our Unionist and Nationalist ministerial colleagues in the North-South Ministerial Council following the restoration of the Assembly.
