With regard to pensions, there are 110,000 British people living here at present, and there are Irish people here who are entitled to pensions from the UK. You come across the latter all the time. Obviously, it is a continuous liability on the British state, regardless of any constitutional change. Would that not automatically mean that, in respect of those who paid contributory pensions in the North, this would continue regardless?
