Ms Muriel Thornton:

I will quickly add to that if the Chair does not mind. Like we said in our statement, we have been 20 years attending these meetings and I feel that strangers, all those years ago, made decisions that affected our lives for generations. It is a basic human right to know where you come from so hopefully this Bill is going to do what it needs to do. I agree wholeheartedly with what Ms Mac Manus says about a referendum being the right way to go also.
