I thank Mr. Hynes for his address. Before I call Sinn Féin, I want to acknowledge the presence of Mr. Hynes' organisation everywhere that I, as Chairman, visit, particularly in Northern Ireland. Even as recently as yesterday, I attended a peace summit which was sponsored in part by the Glencree Centre for Peace and Reconciliation. There was very good attendance. The issues the Glencree Centre for Peace and Reconciliation raised are raised here in Mr. Hynes' speech. It is timely that Mr. Hynes has come here. I want to acknowledge the Glencree Centre for Peace and Reconciliation. If Mr. Hynes will accept praise, it would be well overdue to the Glencree Centre for Peace and Reconciliation for the work that it does.

I call Sinn Féin. We will take ten minutes per group, if that is okay.
