Rights: Principles of Government – UUP paper

Writing Peace: David Trimble Collection

The document from the Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) outlines their stance on the principles of government and human rights in the context of the Northern Ireland peace process. It emphasizes the importance of international human rights law and the need for rights to be protected within the existing territorial integrity of states, as endorsed by the United Nations and the Council of Europe. The UUP argues that Northern Ireland's issues are not unique and should be addressed using the same democratic principles and human rights standards applied elsewhere in Europe. The document critiques the Frameworks Document proposed by the UK and Irish governments, asserting that it does not align with international human rights consensus and could lead to an all-Ireland executive unit, which the UUP opposes. The UUP advocates for a government structure in Northern Ireland that involves proportional participation of all parties and normal cross-border relationships, while ensuring that the Irish Government's role is limited to ensuring good governance without direct intervention in Northern Ireland's internal affairs.
