The work of the Ireland Newfoundland Partnership is currently under review and any future initiatives will be informed by the outcome of that review which will be completed shortly. The last meeting of the Ireland Newfoundland Partnership Board which was chaired by the then Minister of State at the Dept. of Enterprise, Trade & Innovation took place in November, 2010. Following the recommendation contained in the Report of the Special Group on Public Service Numbers and Expenditure the Board of the Ireland Newfoundland Partnership has been absorbed into my Department.
