I thank Mr. Russell for his presentation. I will ask three short questions. Fisheries is obviously one of the big sticking points and it is a critical industry in Scotland. How does he believe the fisheries issue can be resolved satisfactorily?

There has long been close co-operation between Irish higher education institutions and Scottish higher education institutions. There obviously will be challenges, in particular in the research space, but there will be also opportunities. How does Mr. Russell believe that can best develop?

How does he believe the Oireachtas can develop closer links with the Scottish Parliament in a post-Brexit scenario?
