Writing Peace: David Trimble Collection

The Alliance Party's paper, dated 13 October 1997, outlines fundamental principles and structural proposals necessary for a settlement in Northern Ireland. The document emphasizes the need for a regional government to foster self-determination and unity among the people of Northern Ireland, advocating for an elected assembly with legislative and executive functions. It stresses the importance of protecting minorities through proportional representation and a Bill of Rights, and underscores the necessity of respect for the rule of law. Additionally, the paper discusses the importance of establishing clear relationships with the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland, and the European Union, advocating for structures that promote partnership, democratic accountability, and subsidiarity.
