I apologise that I will have to leave the meeting a little early to attend to another commitment. I very much wanted to attend the meeting and wish I could stay for the whole afternoon because I am very interested in the subject matter. When I attended a social event in the North approximately a month ago, I met a teacher from an integrated school. I am ashamed to say I had not even been aware that integrated schools existed there. When I heard our guests' contributions, I thought we needed to learn about the subject. I congratulate our guests on their Nobel Peace Prize, which is a fantastic achievement.
