Mr. John D. TaylorTo ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland when he last discussed transport links with(a) the Scottish Office and (b) the Republic of Ireland; and if he will make a statement about transport communications from Northern Ireland to both Scotland and the Republic of Ireland.
§ Mr. Tim SmithThere are frequent contacts at official level with the Scottish Office and the Republic of Ireland authorities about transport links with Scotland and the Republic of Ireland respectively. The intergovernmental conference last discussed north-south transport issues on 27 April 1992. Transport links with Scotland have not involved recent ministerial contact.
