Gerry Adams Appears Before Good Friday Agreement Committee of the Oireachtas

Gerry Adams appeared before the Good Friday Agreement committee of the Oireachtas on Thursday. He said, "No Irish government has ever produced a strategy to build a new and inclusive Ireland and give effect to Irish unity.

"The absence of Irish government planning is indefensible and incredibly short-sighted.

"There is no excuse for this.

"The Irish government should establish a Citizen’s Assembly or series of such Assemblies to discuss the process of constitutional change and the measures needed to build an all-Ireland economy, a truly national health service and education system and much more."
