I apologise that I was not here for the presentation as I was at another meeting. I have a brief practical question on practices relating to information sharing, assessment and disclosure. Without getting too deeply into the politics, the practical nature of life has been that there is an invisible Border. Ironically, some people have exploited the Border. Families and communities straddle the Border.

My question relates to practical information sharing and the matter of assessment to which Mr. Henderson referred. Will it be possible to share information, and reach whatever conclusion based on that, on a cross-Border basis or will it be restricted to within each jurisdiction?
