I agree with most of what the Deputy has said. It is also important to point out that President Biden has appointed Joe Kennedy III as an economic envoy to Northern Ireland. Joe Kennedy spent a lot of time in Northern Ireland both prior to the week of the celebrations of the 25th anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement and during that week. He has had a lot of engagement with industry, business and political contacts. I met the Northern Ireland Business Brexit Working Group, which was very welcoming of the Windsor Framework.

The Windsor Framework provides an opportunity.
