Sinn Féin submission to Strand One and Strand Two on justice issues, rights and safeguards: Agenda items 5 & 6

Writing Peace: David Trimble Collection

This document is a submission by Sinn Féin to Strand One and Strand Two of the peace talks, dated 10 November 1997. It outlines the historical and ongoing grievances of nationalists in Northern Ireland, emphasizing the systemic denial of cultural, economic, and democratic rights due to British policies and partition. The submission calls for comprehensive equality and justice measures, including the protection of group and individual rights, economic development, cultural recognition, and the establishment of mechanisms to safeguard these rights. Sinn Féin stresses the need for a new, representative police service, demilitarization, and the creation of an all-Ireland Human Rights Commission to ensure parity of esteem and equal treatment for all citizens.
