I seek our guests' views on a personal issue. We have many parks and monuments to battles and other historical events. The Anglo-Irish Agreement has been in place for 30 years and the Good Friday Agreement will be 20 years old in three years. As an historic agreement, the latter should be commemorated, perhaps by naming a park or theatre after it. Do the witnesses have any views on that suggestion? A lady suggested to me about a year ago that a peace garden should be named after the Good Friday Agreement. It is a significant agreement and the focus of the work of this committee. Many good things have come out of it. Do our guests wish to comment?
