Some waiting list

British minister Angela Smith has revealed that, almost two years into her term of office with responsibility for health in the Six Counties, she has yet to formally meet 26-County Health minister Mícheál Martin.

The minister's admission came in a reply to a question from Sinn Féin MLA and spokesperson for All-Ireland Integration, Barry McElduff.

This disgraceful state of affairs highlights the failings of the governments in relation to implementing the North-South aspects of the Good Friday Agreement.

It also shows the crying need for the reinstatement of the power-sharing institutions in the North.
