I wish to refer to a serious issue associated with the Good Friday Agreement, namely, cross-party and cross-Border co-operation. Many football teams from Northern Ireland recently competed in the successful Setanta Cup. However, the match in Dublin last Saturday night was marred by violence because of a premeditated plan by people wearing Shamrock Rovers and Glasgow Celtic shirts. They wanted to cause trouble and had no right to be at the game. Is there a national hooligan register to deal with such young people?
