LabelTarget achieved: NI normal civic society
Question text People have ideas for the kind of society Northern Ireland should become. For each of the following statements, can you tell me on a scale of 1 to 10 whether you think that the idea has been achieved. You can give a score of 1 if you think that it has definitely not been achieved and a score of 10 if you think that it definitely has been achieved, or you can give a score somewhere between 1 and 10 if you think it has been partly achieved. You might not personally agree with some of the ideas but please score them anyway. Northern Ireland is a normal civic society in which all individuals are equal, where differences are resolved though dialogue and where all people are treated impartially.
