Events held by the previous version of the forum were successful. We need to move the process forward.

At my committee's inaugural meeting last week, we visited places in Northern Ireland and spoke with community groups. This is an activity with which we will continue. At our meeting tomorrow, I intend to raise the issue of the all-Ireland consultative civic forum and drive forward the process.
