To examine the problems which arise in relation to parades in Northern Ireland, make recommendations which would contribute to better understanding and amelioration of those problems and report to the Forum by 31 December 1996. From 10 October 1996 the Committee's remit is changed to Public Order Issues: To examine the problems which arise in relation to parades in Northern Ireland, make recommendations which would contribute to better understanding and amelioration of those problems, and report to the Forum and to examine the problems of boycotting in Northern Ireland, make recommendations which would help resolve them, and report to the Forum. From October 1997 the Committee is re-established as the Political Affairs Committee. [Note that the Committee is alleged to meet every Thursday but we do not have records of their meetings. To avoid speculation on meeting dates we have only modelled sessions which we know took place.]
