This document, identified as Annex C of the strand one subcommittee report, authored by the British Government team, outlines potential frameworks for new political institutions in Northern Ireland to ensure fair representation of all main traditions. It discusses the allocation of Committee Chairmanships within the Assembly, suggesting that positions be distributed according to party strengths, possibly using the D'Hondt Rule, to provide each main party with a significant role. The paper also proposes mechanisms such as weighted majority voting and dissenting reports to prevent minority views from being overridden by majorities. Additionally, it highlights the need for further consideration on the appropriate percentage support required for weighted majority votes and threshold decisions, with different parties proposing varying figures.
