The Foreign Affairs Minister Charlie Flanagan has warned that the peace process in the North is still fragile.

Mr Flanagan said that peace and reconciliation projects in the North need to be supported, particularly in the wake of the Brexit.

It comes as he announced €1.2m in funding for 57 organisations in the North.

Minister Flanagan said it is important the Government keeps funding peace projects as it has done for 30 years.

He said: “This funding reflects the enduring commitment of the Irish Government to supporting peace and reconciliation on the island of Ireland.”

“Civil society organisations continue to play a vital role in sustaining and deepening the very real progress that has been made on this island since the Good Friday Agreement.”

“We cannot and do not take this progress for granted. In recognition of this, the Government included a commitment in the 2014 Stormont House Agreement to guarantee an annual budget of €2.7m for the Reconciliation Fund.”
