Sunday, 12 October 1997

i28002

The Labour Party's submission on 'Principles and Requirements' for Strand Two of the negotiations emphasizes the need for arrangements on the island of Ireland that garner widespread acceptance and support from all its people. It stresses that Northern Ireland's future should be decided by its people, while also recognizing the legitimate Irish as PIRAtions of Northerners in a meaningful way. The document calls for the removal of the Irish Republic's jurisdictional claim over Northern Ireland and the establishment of cross-border institutions that reflect the existing practical cooperation between Northern Ireland and the Republic. Labour advocates for democratic, accountable, and transparent control of new institutions, and proposes that different methods of administration be applied based on the nature and scope of these institutions, ensuring that their composition and activities are approved and monitored by relevant legislatures.
