Mr. Brian Lynch:

Insofar as it goes, it is absolutely unworkable and frankly, a form of a madness from our perspective. Fáilte Ireland and Tourism Ireland are absolutely correct in their representations in that regard. It would cause an unmitigated mess and there is no other way to put it. It would be horrendous. I am old enough to remember the old days up North when it was not that pleasant to cross the Border and here we are heading back to that again. It is unthinkable to be honest and I do not know what the solutions are. If we can, we should try not to allow that to happen.
