Mr. Mark Bassett:

I will not add much because Professor Harvey covered many of the points. It is very important that there is engagement from unionism in the debate about what the shared island will look like in future but it cannot prevent the debate from happening. Those in a position to assist, explain and reassure should do so.

We would very much like to provide an inventory of those aspects of Irish law or UK law that could be criticised as not being consistent with the Good Friday Agreement. It is a little bit of work and we will be happy to submit it to the committee later in the year. If the referendums are lost, the status quo will remain. Everyone will have had his or her say and it will have been a fair procedure.
