When you look at the ongoing good relations strategies that we have in the Executive Office, you see that T:BUC, for example, has had a clear impact on the lives of people here through the development of and investment in headline actions and wider commitments by removing interface barriers and bringing people together through sport, education and the camps. As I said, since 2015, we have invested over £12 million in the camps programme, and more than 950 have been delivered. We have reached a massive 33,000 young people. As I said, that demonstrates the commitment of the First Minister and the deputy First Minister, and junior Minister Cameron and me. We will do all that we can to continue that work.
