Both Health Ministers meet under the auspices of the North South Ministerial Council. I plan to attend the next North South Ministerial Council Plenary meeting scheduled for 10 June. A North South Ministerial Council Health Sectoral meeting will be scheduled for the coming months. This will provide a specific opportunity to review existing arrangements for cooperation in health and explore areas for collaboration where mutual benefit for both populations is demonstrated.
