British-Irish Agreement (Amendment) Bill, 2002: Second Stage.

 

The process has been extremely successful, as have the bodies. Some people in the Irish language lobby were concerned that some uniqueness would be lost by virtue of the all-Ireland dimension, but I do not believe that is the case. I have seen some of the leaflets produced by the Ulster Scots Agency and while I am still a little dubious whether the language that is called Ulster Scots is actually spoken anywhere, the issue of Ulster Scots culture and its impact on the United States has been completely understated in this part of the island.
