Voices of All Communities on the Constitutional Future of the Island of Ireland: Discussion
Emer Currie (Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
I thank the Cathaoirleach for all of the work that has gone into today. We read the submissions, went through them and decided who was coming, but it was the Cathaoirleach who made sure this room worked today, and we are very appreciative of that. I do not think the Good Friday Agreement asked the constitutional question; I think it left it open-ended. I believe the values that underpin it are compromise, generosity, partnership, inclusion and reconciliation, and of all the words I would like to end on today, it is “reconciliation”.
