Mr. Stephen Kelly:

I want to reinforce the concern that we have, as a business community in the North, that we do not have a voice in those structures. The EU will not permit it, and rightly so. We are not a member of the EU. No other third country in the world occupies the position that we do currently. That is difficult for the EU. We need to ensure that there is a free-flowing, open conversation that includes the voice of people of the North being represented in some fashion.
