Lord Jay of Ewelme:

We are coming to the end of time, or at least our side will have to disappear. I want to say thank you very much indeed. It has been a very helpful two hours' discussion. We said at the beginning that what really mattered in this very difficult situation is not just formal relationships but also personal relationships. I feel we have developed both a formal relationship and personal relationships in the past two hours. That is very important and I hope we can build on that. I hope, as others have said, that we can have another discussion of this kind, either in Dublin or in London and perhaps later in the year when we have produced our report and things will have changed and evolved, where we can build still further on these relationships. From our side, thank you very much indeed for an extremely useful and very worthwhile discussion.

I am most grateful to members for being there and to our side for being here.
