Annex B – Code of practice for the new political institutions in Northern Ireland

Writing Peace: David Trimble Collection

This document, identified as Annex B of the strand one subcommittee report, outlines a proposed 'Code of Practice' for new political institutions in Northern Ireland, detailing the roles and responsibilities of Departments, Assembly Committees, and the Assembly at large. It was proposed by the UDUP and agreed upon by the UUP and the Alliance Party, with the SDLP reserving its position on certain aspects. The document specifies that each Department would be responsible for administering programs, promoting good community relations, implementing policy, and advising on policy changes, among other duties. Assembly Committees would coordinate business, scrutinize departmental work, hold hearings, and prepare reports, while the Assembly at large would elect a Speaker, appoint committee members, hold departments accountable, and legislate in the transferred field, with certain decisions requiring weighted majority approval.
