This negotiation contains a selection of mini-models designed to provide an insight into the ongoing work of PACT and to demonstrate Quill's approach to visualising the archive material and tracking the process of negotiation. It differs from our usual approach in that we will be presenting only certain documents and moments in isolation, rather than including everything tabled during the course of a negotiation. This collection is still under construction, and we will be regularly adding small amounts of new material.

The discussion on Directive Principles originated in the subcommittee, and B.N. Rau used this discussion as the basis for a set of clauses, one of which is the text of what would become Article 39.
