The Alliance Party's submission on Justice and Human Rights, dated November 1997, addresses issues pertinent to all three strands of the Northern Ireland peace talks, with a primary focus on Strand One. The document advocates for the establishment of an elected Assembly with a cross-community Executive, emphasizing the need for new institutions to uphold high standards of justice and human rights. It proposes the creation of a Department of Justice to ensure public engagement and independence in policing and judicial matters, while also suggesting enhanced cross-border cooperation on security and crime. Additionally, the submission supports the incorporation of the European Convention on Human Rights into UK and Irish domestic law and calls for stronger mechanisms to combat discrimination and promote a human rights culture.
