UUP motions for submission to plenary, 2 December 1996

Writing Peace: David Trimble Collection

The Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) submitted a document to the Plenary on 2 December 1996, addressing the protocol for bringing a Notice of Motion before the Plenary for debate and voting. The UUP emphasized that the Northern Ireland Political Talks Process is primarily about negotiations rather than serving as a debating facility. They referenced Rule 37 of the Rules of Procedure, which allows participants to request the Northern Ireland Forum for Political Dialogue to consider specific subjects. The UUP proposed that only matters of urgent or significant importance that could impact the negotiations should be debated in Plenary, and suggested guidelines for when such motions could be allowed by the Chairman.
