Description

"John Major, then British Prime Minister, and John Bruton, then Taoiseach (Irish Prime Minister), held a press conference in Belfast to launch the Framework Documents: 'A New Framework For Agreement' and 'A Framework For Accountable Government In Northern Ireland'. The 'Framework for Accountable Government' proposed a single-chamber Assembly elected by proportional representation and containing 90 members. The 'Framework for Agreement' dealt with, among other things, North/South institutions. Major tried to reassure Unionists by referring to the safeguards built into the documents however most Unionists opposed the development."
