The restoration of the new Northern Ireland Executive will provide an added impetus for enhanced North South co-operation in the areas of tourism, arts, culture, and sport. In that context the potential for co-operation across the horse and greyhound sectors will be explored building on contacts which have already been made in these areas and at future Ministerial meetings.
