I am shocked by the report from a Northern Ireland perspective with only one paragraph referring to it. We have had 15 years of cross-Border operation and implementation of the Good Friday Agreement. The document has denied the inclusion of cross-Border support. I will not get into where that came from and why, but there were no checks or balances.
We talk about the implementation of all the strands of the Good Friday Agreement. The members of this committee are very involved but I am not sure if it goes through the Assembly.
