The Social Democratic and Labour Party (SDLP) submitted a document to the Multi-Party Talks in November 1997, addressing justice, rights, and safeguards [items 5 and 6] within the context of Northern Ireland's political and social issues. The submission highlights the profound implications of the Northern Ireland conflict on human rights, particularly in legal, security, and policing areas, emphasizing the need for a Bill of Rights and internationally accepted principles to protect fundamental rights. The SDLP underscores the necessity of creating a policing service supported by both Unionist and Nationalist communities, advocating for a comprehensive reassessment of policing to ensure it operates on a consensus basis. Additionally, the document calls for equality and equity in social order, respect for civil liberties, cultural rights, and a major review of the legal system to eliminate emergency legislation and ensure justice and fairness for all communities in Northern Ireland.
