That is why, as co-guarantor of the Good Friday Agreement, the Irish Government has a responsibility to do that. It would not be the financial and stressful burden for the Irish Government that it would be for individuals. It is a way of avoiding it.

Does Glencree have a policy to expand its engagement by cascading out through its current network contacts or does it depend on making the connections itself? I suppose what I am asking is that we are in a totally different era now in a different context, and how does Mr. Hynes see Glencree's work expanding into the future and dealing with the here and now where we are in terms of the institutions being back up and running, the commitments within the Good Friday Agreement in terms of a referendum and so on? Where does Mr. Hynes see Glencree fitting into all that?
