Mr. Raymond McCord:

Some of the people involved were people who - we can speak again about this - received Government funding. I have no doubt from the information received that they get some from Dublin. There is a large group, and I will not go into details, but it is in this community. I am looking at documents given to me just yesterday. A good part of this board is Ulster Volunteer Force, UVF, lifers. Other people who sit on it are relatives of senior UVF men and another one is a UVF man. There are no community workers on it. I have the figures in front of me of the money it receives. Those things need to stop.

There needs to be more interaction between people from Northern Ireland and the people who sit in power here. The way forward is through people working with each other. I criticise Deputy Mary Lou McDonald and I will criticise any politician. It could be a leader of a Northern political party. I criticise people. Some are from a political party that wants a united Ireland while others want to remain part of the union. Just because I criticise and do not agree with the words she or the DUP uses does not mean they are my enemy.
