    Democratic Audit: Northern Ireland and the Withdrawal Agreement Page 1 of 3 Northern Ireland and the Withdrawal Agreement Boris Johnson’s proposed withdrawal agreement with the EU, which Parliament is due to vote on today, establishes different customs arrangements for Northern Ireland than for Great Britain, to avoid a hard border with the Republic of Ireland. Sean Swan explains how having differential arrangements for Northern Ireland and Great Britain is not novel, and is a reflection of long-existing realities in Northern Ireland’s governance. For them to have democratic legitimacy, though, the Northern Ireland Assembly needs to be reconvened. Harland & Wolff cranes, Belfast (May 2019). Picture: Albert Bridge, via geograph.ie/(CC BY-SA 2.0) licence Certain realities have now forced their logic on to the Brexit negotiations. And Boris Johnson has seen the light. Perhaps he was struck by divine revelation; perhaps he was convinced by the realities of the situation. Whatever the cause, Johnson has become reconciled to Northern Ireland having a different customs regime from Great Britain as the only way to avoid a ‘hard’ Irish border. And avoiding a hard border is the only way to get a Brexit deal. The DUP, despite their strong pro-Brexit stance, are not happy with the proposed ‘customs border in the Irish Sea’, but it appears that most Conservative Brexiteer members of the ERG will be able to live with it. Nobody should be surprised that when it came down to a hard choice, the ERG would prioritise Brexit over Belfast. Brexit is an English thing. But voices are now being raised asserting that this constitutes some sort of unforgivable and unprecedented infringement of the integrity of the UK.

It is exactly two decades since 24-year-old Aidan McAnespie was shot dead by a soldier at a permanent border checkpoint at Aughnacloy in 1988. The victim, who had no criminal record and was not a member of any paramilitary organisation, had been walking to a local GAA match when he was shot in the back from an estimated range of 300 metres. The soldier who fired the fatal shot claimed his hands had been wet and had slipped onto the trigger of the heavy sub-machine gun while he had been moving it around the checkpoint’s look-out post. The soldier, whose identity has never been publicised, was fined for negligent discharge of a weapon and given a medical discharge from the army.

  • Support for Statutory Right to Independent Advice – Amendments 48 & 50
    Support for statutory right to independent advice – Amendments 48 & 50 Statutory right to independent advice The Northern Ireland Advice Services Consortium1 and NICVA support Amendments 48 and 50 as proposed by Mr Roy Beggs and Mr Robin Swann and Mrs Dolores Kelly, Mr Alex Attwood, Mr Alban Maginness and Mr Pat Ramsey respectively.2 We explain the reasons for our support below. Right to independent advice A statutory right to independent advice for anyone affected by the Welfare Reform Bill. This concept was first proposed by Advice NI in evidence to the Social Development Committee during the scrutiny stage of the Welfare Reform Bill. The concept has been warmly welcomed by the Northern Ireland Advice Services Consortium (NIASC) and NICVA.3 Independent welfare advice is invaluable for people receiving social security benefits or who are considering making a claim. We can think of welfare advice as a safety net. It ensures that people receive the benefits they are entitled to or to resolve problems before they escalate. By playing a key role in promoting benefit uptake, welfare advice brings monetary and social benefits to claimants and their communities. What do advisers do? Advisers do not tell people what to do: they empower people by explaining their options and supporting decision making.4 Advisers: - Interview people in a supportive environment to obtain a full picture of any problems - Help the person prioritise the problems and identify solutions - Provide up to date advice about available benefits and assess a person’s eligibility - Help complete applications - Advocate at appeals if necessary - Help people liaise with government departments and negotiate with companies and creditors - Refer externally to other forms of appropriate crisis intervention (e.g.
