Dr. Anne Smith:

On the issue of parliamentary sovereignty, this is where the expertise of human rights experts would come into play. There are different mechanisms to address parliamentary sovereignty under a bill of rights. That is why it is important to get the political parties around the table, supported by both the British and Irish Governments. It is what we will be pushing for in the coming weeks and putting forward more proposals for further funding. We hope we can take this forward. As Professor McWilliams said, too much work has been done in Northern Ireland on the bill of rights process to let it go.
