This document outlines a proposed replacement for the current Rule 1 governing the negotiations. It specifies that the negotiations are conducted under the provisions of Section 2(1) of the Northern Ireland (Entry to Negotiations, etc) Act 1996 and are guided by the Ground Rules for Substantive multi-party talks published on 16 April 1996. The document emphasizes that the conduct of these negotiations is solely the responsibility of the participants involved and that the rules of procedure are adopted as the single governing set for the negotiations. Any amendments to these rules can only be made through agreement, following the decision-making process detailed in paragraphs 23 through 28, and after discussion in the Business Committee.
