Yes. Mr. O'Connor mentioned some of the politicians, such as John Hume, Seamus Mallon and David Trimble. Would he agree they paid a price for peace? Would he agree that, by extension, they did that knowingly?

I welcome the opportunity to have Mr. O’Connor before the committee today. If needs be, I would love to see him before the committee again. I say this because people like him, who carry the knowledge he does, are vital for us, as politicians across the board, to move on in current-day difficulties.
