Question
Christine Bell described the first paragraph of this agreement as “a masterpiece of ambiguity, violating all rules of legal drafting” while Arthur Aughey described it as “an institutionalised holding operation” composed of the “reworked remnants of failures.” Paul Bew described the result of this agreement as “prosaic, even dull” in contrast to the revolutionary objectives of one party. The negotiations for this agreement were underpinned by the Mitchell Principles, which included the parallel processes of (*) decommissioning and normalisation and an earlier treaty signed at Hillsborough Castle. Signers of this agreement include David Andrews and Mo Mowlam. Incorrectly described as “Sunningdale for slow learners,” for 10 points, what pair of agreements signed in 1998 are seen as marking the end of the Troubles? ■END■
