To clarify, the Irish Government completely supports all aspects of the Good Friday Agreement, including the bill of rights. There is no consensus in Northern Ireland. I want to put that on the record. The commitment of the Irish Government has been demonstrated by the Minister, Deputy Charles Flanagan, the Minister of State, Deputy Sherlock, and their officials who were involved in intensive talks in Northern Ireland.
