Abstract

The Declaration of Principles on Interim Self-Government Arrangements (DoP) provided a blueprint for the transfer and exercise of powers and responsibilities to the Palestinians and the levels of sovereignty to be attained by the Palestinians. The DoP prepared the establishment of a nominal cessation of hostilities agreement. The DoP instituted a mutual recognition pact. The DoP stated the parties’ intent to transfer specified territorial enclaves to Palestinian authority. The DoP provided for the inauguration of an autonomous self-governing Palestinian entity with the prospect of elections to such an autonomous legislative body combined with the devolution of additional civil powers and responsibilities. The DoP arranged for the withdrawal and redeployment of Israeli military forces from specified locations and population centres. The DoP founded a framework for the resolution of disputes and Israeli-Palestinian public order and security cooperation.
