"Neither, though, can it be achieved through a patchwork quilt of private members' bills which, however well intentioned, fail to deal with the roots of our divided society. "However, we must recognise that these plans are ultimately about managing our divisions. If we want to become a truly reconciled region, we must demand more than a tolerance process. We must finally begin to genuinely embrace our difference and take tangible strides toward building a cohesive, united people. "The time has come for all parties to coalesce around the principles which will underpin lasting and meaningful reconciliation. These include truth, accountability, generosity of spirit and collective endeavour. "Over the past week we have been reminded that some, and in particular Sinn Fein, appear to be seeking peace without accountability. That is not what the people of Ireland voted for 15 years ago this week. There are no amnesties in the Good Friday Agreement and it will be impossible to reconcile our past on amnesties or impunity, be it for state forces or paramilitaries. " If as leaders we are really serious about reconciliation then we are also going to have to be generous. Requiring that truth and reconciliation be accepted as two sides of the same coin would send a powerful signal across society that we are serious about building a new society and addressing our past in an accountable way".
