RTE has reported on the Ad Hoc Committee’s meeting with Northern Ireland Secretary Brandon Lewis in Washington.
An excerpt:
The Ad Hoc Committee to Protect the Good Friday Agreement said the meeting was “cordial and candid”, and that it focused on the Northern Ireland Protocol as well as the UK’s proposed amnesty to address the legacy issues of the Troubles.
Former US Congressman Bruce Morrison, who is the co-chair of the committee, said that members stressed that outstanding issues with the Northern Ireland Protocol should be resolved between the UK and EU and that the focus should be on the practicalities of implementing the measures.
“On the legacy issue, we suggested that the UK needs to rethink its amnesty proposal given the lack of support among stakeholders in Northern Ireland,” Mr Morrison said.
