I am pleased to inform the Deputy that there is excellent ongoing cross-Border co-operation with counterparts in Northern Ireland on relevant justice matters. There has been regular contact between my predecessors as Minster for Justice and the Minister for Justice in the Northern Ireland Executive.
There is also excellent ongoing cross border co-operation between our respective Departments on a range of issues as well as between An Garda Síochána and the Police Service of Northern Ireland and other agencies with their counterparts. Notwithstanding the current absence of a functioning Executive, my officials continue to work closely with officials in the Northern Ireland Department of Justice to progress matters of mutual interest.
The information requested by the Deputy is detailed in tabular form below.
