The future of Ireland is for the people of this island to decide, and for the people of this island alone.

This matter cannot be allowed to drift through further administrative delay.

time [was] of the essence

It cannot be missed," she said. "It must be grasped."

Without that we are going to continue with the nightmare that we are seeing on our streets, and just to remind ourselves people have been badly injured and worse.

Urgent steps must now be taken to engage with survivors and to appoint a mediator without further delay. This process should now be expedited to ensure full justice and full redress.

What's required is enforcement, the Government haven't said anything or certainly haven't made the commitments that we need in respect of garda resources and garda training.

A ban is all well and good but it means nothing if it's not enforced, and all of the evidence across our communities is that the law and regulations are not enforced.

The question is not whether we can afford reunification. It is whether we can afford partition.

You were up against it all, and the State which should have protected you from this monster, instead let you down catastrophically.

There has been nothing rushed, hasty or pre-emptive about this process. Over the last three decades, we had big challenges, disagreements, political confrontations, we have had high and lows - of that there is no doubt. However, the peace…

It was never given to the survivors, so the investigation, the criminal case, and the survivors' civil cases were conducted without this key piece of evidence.

The survivors walked a long road that you should never have had to walk.

Partition failed the people of Ireland and we all have a responsibility now to plan and prepare for unity.

The question is not if there will be unity referendums, but when those referendums will be held.

Britain's union is now under unprecedented pressure.

We have seen the consequences of the Brexit chaos play out across the water; we do not want a repeat of that.

This is in everybody's interests.

We cannot afford to be caught flat footed.

It's intent is very straightforward, it simply places a responsibility on Government now to move towards the production of a Green Paper that would set out all of the dynamics and dimensions of the reunification journey.

A united Ireland is about collapsing division and bringing the people of this island together to shape a better for all

Without a public inquiry, the full circumstances of the disaster may never be established.

This meeting needs to happen very, very soon.
