An Irish all-party committee urges immediate preparations for a united Ireland, recommending a Green Paper and Oireachtas committee.

An all-party committee in Ireland calls for immediate preparations for a united Ireland, urging every government department to examine the implications of constitutional change. The Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement has recommended that the Irish government prepare and publish a Green Paper outlining a vision for a united Ireland. The report highlights the increased cross-border trade, from approximately €2 billion in 1998 to €20 billion in 2022, and suggests planning for a united Ireland should begin immediately. The group advocates for the establishment of an Oireachtas committee dedicated to the preparations.
