The Northern Ireland Women's Coalition, in their submission dated 27 October 1997, outlines a comprehensive framework for new political arrangements in Northern Ireland. They propose a Political Forum/Assembly consisting of a directly elected chamber and a civic chamber representing business, trade unions, and voluntary sectors, with a 50/50 gender balance in both chambers. The document emphasizes the importance of balanced committee structures, proactive North/South cooperation, and engagement with Scotland, Wales, England, and the European Union. Additionally, it calls for compliance with EU and international obligations, protection of civic and political rights, and a transition period of 4-5 years to monitor and report on the effectiveness of these arrangements.
