The Five Demands

OFMDFM to meet Parades Commission (BBC News Northern Ireland)
The first and deputy first ministers are to hold their first ever joint meeting with the Parades Commission this week.
The meeting will be held at Stormont Castle on Tuesday.
The issue of contentious parades will be discussed.
The Commission’s chairman, Peter Osborne, has said he hopes the Grand Lodge of the Orange Order would soon reverse its policy of refusing to speak to the Parades Commission.
“I don’t think it does a service to the Orange institution that they don’t talk to everybody and they don’t engage with us,” he said.
“I think increasingly within the Orange family, I think people are frustrated at that and certainly the engagement we have with Orange institutions, with Orange parading organisations, would suggest that.”
Last July, the Orange Order rejected proposals for new legislation on how to deal with contentious parades set out by a joint DUP and Sinn Fein working group.
The six-strong group was set up to work on the matter after the Hillsborough Agreement in January 2010.
The proposals focused on dialogue and a code of conduct for both residents and marchers. They also spelled the end of the Parades Commission.

The First and deputy First Ministers are to meet with the Parades Commission later this week to discuss potential disturbances during the marching season.
A spokesman for the commission said they have been meeting political and community leaders – and marching organisations – over recent months.
During a recruitment drive for new members of the Parades Commission last year, Minister of State for Northern Ireland Hugo Swire said the commission’s goal will be to avoid a repeat of the “mindless violence” seen in the summer 2010, during which the PSNI spent £2.2m in policing four days of rioting in the north Belfast area of Ardoyne.
Speaking during a religious procession in the area, Holy Cross Parish Priest Father Gary Donegan said the people of Ardoyne are keen to have a peaceful summer.
“There’s a lot of talks going on in backgrounds with various groups and residents associations and representatives of both sides of the community to make it, hopefully, a peaceful time,” he said.
People in Ardoyne turned out on Sunday to take part in the Holy Cross Corpus Christi Parish procession, which Father Donegan added was a chance for those in the area to show their hopes for the future.
“It shows the normality of the community – sometimes the headlines coming out of Ardoyne from these streets is very negative and this is a religious procession which shows how the community will unite.”
