[QUOTE="nivilla1982, post: 7606615, member: 45400"] Trimble makes the argument that some of the bodies created by the Belfast Agreement can be used to create the structure for such a system. "The institutional framework established by the GFA - especially the British Irish Council (BIC) and the British Irish Intergovernmental Conference under Strand Three - provide for the necessary cooperation required to make a Mutual Enforcement structure work. The BIC mandate is very broad - to “promote the harmonious and mutually beneficial development of the totality of relationships among the peoples of these islands.” Moreover, the BIC anticipates that it can be used to discuss EU issues and comes with an obligation to “exchange information, discuss, consult and use best endeavours to reach agreement on cooperation on matters of mutual interest within the competence of the relevant Administrations. Suitable issues for early discussion in the BIC could include transport links, agricultural issues, environmental issues, cultural issues, health issues, education issues and approaches to EU issues.” The GFA is affirmed and “protected in all its parts” by the Protocol, even though the Protocol is in fact inconsistent with the GFA. The GFA imposes best endeavours obligations on Ireland and the UK as described above. The use of the BIC therefore to discuss the modalities of a system such as Mutual Enforcement to remove the need for border infrastructure is not merely an option; it is an obligation on both the UK and Irish State." Though it would requires political willingness from all sides etc, so big if etc. [/QUOTE]
