Friday, 07 November 1997

i28063

The document is a submission by the Labour Party dated 7 November 1997, concerning rights and safeguards in the context of the Good Friday Agreement negotiations. It outlines several fundamental principles, including the right of the people of Northern Ireland to determine their future, the protection of minority rights, and the development of North/South bodies to serve mutual interests. The submission emphasizes the need for executive powers for these bodies under the supervision of both governments and highlights the complexity of authority distribution in the proposed new Assembly. Additionally, it calls for the continuation of the British–Irish Intergovernmental Conference, transparency in its operations, and various proposals such as the removal of Articles 2 and 3 from the Irish Constitution, legislative measures on civil rights, and support for judicial and police systems.
