I am aware of the good work being undertaken by the project referred to by the Deputy. I am strongly supportive in principle of an extension of the PEACE II programme having regard to its contribution to fostering mutual understanding and co-operation, especially, involving the community and voluntary sectors, on both sides of the Border. Proposals for an extension to the PEACE II programme for the years 2005 and 2006 are being examined. It is expected that these proposals will be submitted to the commission by the end of the month.
