Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement

Engagement with Londonderry Chamber of Commerce and Foyle Port

Mr. Aidan O'Kane:

We are asking how important it is and if it is still necessary. We have to pose the question, "What if it wasn't there?" It is the best of a bad deal, if you like. We have got something we can work with. It is not perfect. Can we iron out the kinks? That is where our energy should be spent. We should iron out the kinks and try to make it work the way it is intended to work. Then we can take stock of what the future holds. We cannot just decide right now that it is bad and we need to scrap it. That would not be good for our businesses.
