We will move on to a second round of questions. Deputy Ó Murchú is first on my list. Before I call him, I have a brief question. We are constantly being introduced to new jargon in the European Union. I thank Mr. Andrews for that new medical jargon term, connective tissue. It stands out. I appreciate what he and the eight MEPs were trying to do. It is important to have that link between Belfast and Brussels. Has Mr. Andrews tested the water in Belfast on this issue and I am specifically referring to unionism? What would this look like in practice? Potentially how would he see this operating in practice?
