North/South Ministerial Council: Transport Sectoral Format
Ministerial Statements

Danny Kennedy (UUP)
I am very grateful to the Member. Tip O’Neill was absolutely right — “all politics is local”. As the Member knows, and wants me to explain again, I recently met her in relation to that issue of park-and-share and park-and-ride facilities at Sheepbridge off the A1 bypass. I also had the opportunity to meet members of Newry and Mourne District Council — of which she is a former member, like me — to discuss the issue. Officials are looking at how we can improve the existing situation, given the financial constraints that we face, and I will seek to update the Member accordingly.
