The document, authored by the Chair of Strand One, dated 18 November 1997, is an aide-memoire intended to guide further discussions in the negotiations leading to the Good Friday Agreement. It poses a series of questions aimed at identifying key elements for any agreement emerging from Strand One, emphasizing the interconnectedness of agreements across all three strands of the negotiations. The questions cover a range of topics including the necessity and structure of new political institutions in Northern Ireland, the extent of devolved political responsibilities, accountability mechanisms, models of government, safeguarding community interests, liaison with the UK and Republic of Ireland, the role of the Westminster Parliament, legal protection of rights, and future policing and criminal justice arrangements. The document seeks to focus discussions on creating a comprehensive and mutually supportive framework for governance in Northern Ireland.
