I welcome the witnesses and thank them for their interaction with the committee. I will not go over ground that has been covered already. It is a huge issue. I travelled with Senator Feighan to Liverpool as part of the British-Irish delegation and we had a very good engagement with Professor Dougan. His views on Brexit are concerning and we learnt a lot there. It is a massive question and the witnesses have covered much of it in their responses.

I would like to understand, in terms of the peace process itself, the challenges that Brexit presents. What are the views of the witnesses in this regard? The witnesses have said they work with different organisations. How have they progressed the issue of Brexit? Given Mr. Sheridan's last few comments on the peace process, it is fragile. I would like to know what type of work has been done, including behind the scenes, to consider the impact of Brexit.
