Is there something more than that, which the Government, political parties or even this committee could be doing to encourage conversations and to try to allay the fears? As Dr. Mitchell says, it could be with some people that they have lost their identity or they feel they are losing it because of Brexit, so there might be something we could do to assure them they have not and that their identity within the new Ireland would be secure and respected. I presume there is more that could be done by politicians as well.
