Irish Unification: Motion (Resumed).
11:00 am
Michael McDowell (Dublin South East, Progressive Democrats)
In building a united Ireland what is needed to be done is to reconcile the orange and green traditions on this island. I find it strange that the provisional movement comes to the Dublin Government asking for its assistance in establishing a dialogue with the orange tradition in Northern Ireland. The truth is that persuasion for Irish unity is the vocation of every republican in this House and elsewhere.
