Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement
Shared Island Unit: Department of the Taoiseach (Resumed)
Mr. Eoghan Duffy:
As Ms O'Donoghue said, we have been working hard to ensure we are involving new voices and groups. We started with key stakeholders and people who are deeply involved with the sector, whether in environment, youth work or civil society co-operation. That was the starting point. We pushed to bring participants together to see how we could get to new representatives and voices. We proactively asked if people were working with women, young or new communities and we asked them to nominate people who could represent those new perspectives.
