The Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) drafted a comprehensive set of rules of procedure for the negotiations. The agenda focuses on addressing relationships within Northern Ireland, between Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic, and between the United Kingdom and the Irish Republic. The negotiations are structured into three strands, each covering one of these relationships, and will involve representatives from the British and Irish governments and political parties that have demonstrated a commitment to peaceful methods. The document stipulates that Sinn Féin/ PIRA's [sic] participation is contingent on a permanent cease-fire by the PIRA. The rules outline the format of the negotiations, including the roles of chairpersons, the conduct of negotiations, and the decision-making process, which will operate on the basis of consensus or sufficient consensus. The Business Committee will coordinate the progress and procedures of the negotiations, ensuring that all issues are addressed coherently. The document also details the responsibilities of chairpersons, the confidentiality of proceedings, and the process for maintaining records of meetings. Finally, it specifies that the outcome of the negotiations will be subject to referendums in Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic (for matters relevant to its jurisdiction) before being ratified by their respective parliaments.
