UUP response to the British and Irish government consultation paper on Strand Three: A New Agreement

Writing Peace: David Trimble Collection

The Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) expressed disappointment and concern regarding the joint proposals in the Consultation Paper 3 'A New Agreement' by the British and Irish Governments, criticizing it for endorsing the Frameworks Documents, which they view as politically unbalanced and unacceptable to Unionists. The UUP emphasized the principle of consent, asserting that it should be determined solely by the people of Northern Ireland and not influenced by the Republic of Ireland. They also called for a clear distinction between identity and allegiance, and sought clarification on terms like 'parity of esteem' and 'equality of advantage' used in the consultation paper. The UUP proposed the establishment of a Council of the British Isles to address the totality of relationships within the British Isles, and welcomed the commitment to human rights protection, though they questioned the need for an All-Ireland Charter or Covenant, advocating instead for adherence to European and international human rights conventions.
