The Ulster Unionist Party (UUP), in their submission dated 24 October 1997, addresses the need for new relationships and arrangements between the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland, reflecting the existence of two separate states within the British Isles. They criticize the Anglo-Irish Agreement and its institutions as undemocratic and unacceptable to the people of Northern Ireland, proposing instead the establishment of a Council of the British Isles to facilitate discussion and cooperation. The UUP emphasizes that any new relationships must recognize the territorial integrity of the United Kingdom and that trust between participants is essential, which can only be built progressively. They argue that cooperation requires mutual integrity and an unequivocal acceptance of the realities of the situation.
