I will take seven and a half minutes before I pass over to my colleague. I hope this exchange can be conversational because I have many questions. This is a report about perspectives on constitutional change. It will come as no shock that I am in favour of constitutional change and am open-minded about how we do that and what it would look like. Dr. Barrett mentioned that the shared island unit facilitates research. In his opinion, how much of that kind of work needs to be done before we start putting together proposals for what a new Ireland could look like? How much work is needed in the gathering of data to allow us to start compiling visions of what things might look like?
