The ruling by Senator George J. Mitchell, dated December 15, 1997, reflects on a the 18 November 1997 meeting and addresses the jurisdiction and procedures of the Liaison subcommittee on Confidence Building Measures. The ruling clarifies that certain issues, such as institutional or systemic aspects of policing, may be more appropriately addressed in a different arena. The ruling emphasizes the importance of consensus and flexibility in addressing potential disputes within the subcommittee. It outlines the agreed-upon agenda for upcoming meetings, covering topics like Prisoner Issues, Economic and Social Development, Paramilitary Activity, Security Issues, and Policing Issues. Senator Mitchell indicates that formal objections and rulings will only be necessary if a participant raises an issue that another participant objects to, emphasizing the aim for reasonable and flexible resolution of disputes.
