Ms Michelle Gildernew:

This has been a fascinating and useful discussion. Mr. Powell's experience is shining through. There is lots of engagement at council level, and there was at assembly level while it was still functioning. Even when it was not functioning we would still have engaged extensively with unionists and loyalism. There are lots of unionists and Protestants engaged in the united Ireland debate. The challenge now is finding additional ways to engage with unionists on the issue of a new Ireland. That engagement is going on and that trust is being built. I have certainly benefited from relationships I have developed over the past 20 or 30 years with people within my own community, across parties. How do we find additional ways of engaging in order to enable people to be involved in discussions around our future and unity as that develops?
