Audit and Re-Imaging of Memorials- Amendment 1
Leave out all after ‘in a way that’ and insert: ‘upholds the rule of law and avoids causing pain or hurt to others, including innocent victims; expresses concern that there are memorials on public land that were erected without lawful authority and include imagery and emblems that can be seen as marking territory and glorifying terrorism; calls on the Executive, in consultation with the Northern Ireland Housing Executive, to determine the need for an audit to assess the number of memorials on public land, and to promote a consistent approach to enforcement where planning permission is not sought; and further calls on the First Minister and deputy First Minister, building on work to date through the Communities in Transition programme, to support communities to re-image these memorials, including by removing paramilitary imagery and emblems and references to criminal acts of violence.’
