I do not mean to create limitations; it was just a platform for hearing what the witnesses have to say. What they are saying is very refreshing and chaotic in its creativity, and they are quite right that we must find ways around the issue. There is cross-Border co-operation even in health, the arts, culture and tourism - and milk. Starting with milk, even if one knew nothing, one could see this co-operation every day of one's life in what one eats and drinks. I also see it in education all the time. I therefore agree with the witnesses. It is just that we do not hear enough of people like them speaking publicly with creative solutions.
