The document, authored by the Alliance Party on 13 October 1997, outlines the fundamental principles and realities necessary for a settlement in Northern Ireland. It emphasizes the need for a community government that allows the people of Northern Ireland to determine their own future through self-governance, advocating for an elected assembly with legislative and executive functions. The Alliance Party stresses the importance of protecting and valuing minorities through proportional representation and the establishment of a Bill of Rights. Additionally, the document highlights the necessity of respect for the rule of law, the importance of fostering relations with the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland, and the European Union, and the need for permanence and stability in any agreed outcome, which should be endorsed by the people through a referendum.
