On the point about further engagement, Mr. Andrews will be aware of the politics in action programme which involves schools on both sides of the Border. It is part of the programme for Government and has been active, even during Covid. I have been hearing, anecdotally, that this engagement is very productive. The conversations are not focused only on the issues involved in our political discourse but also cover issues that affect young people. The clerk will be happy to pass on the details. There is a lot of engagement between Belfast and Dublin but maybe Brussels should also be involved in some way. This is just an idea.
