Dilemmas the students are given a few dilemmas (e.g. Which would you choose - your taste or your smell?). They have to discuss it and make a choice.
Dilemmas. The bank devotes attention to dilemmas that you may face as a consequence of the Banker's Oath and the instructions issued by the bank in that context. There is also a toolkit that contains all necessary information and various tools. In addition, the bank has an Ethics Committee. Any issues you face for which no clear-cut answer can be found, either in legislation or regulations or by means of internal consultation, can be submitted to this committee. Contact point Once you have taken the Banker's Oath, you may be called to account by third parties if you fail to act in accordance with the rules of conduct. Third parties may call you to account through an independent disciplinary committee of the Foundation for Banking Ethics Enforcement (FBEE). The bank has established a contact point that serves as a channel for communication between the FBEE and employees. This contact point: • acts as a point of contact for the FBEE and the disciplinary committee; • keeps records of reports filed by third parties; • in the event of complaints or reports, establishes within the bank whether any previous complaints have been made, any matters are currently under investigation and any sanctions have been imposed against employees; Appendix II Banker's Oath and disciplinary law • assesses requests on their merits. The contact point decides whether a complaint requires further action within the bank, coordinates necessary action and informs the employee and/or departments involved about any further action to be taken; • acts as your point of contact if you require representation. Cost of legal assistance If a complaint, as provided for in the Disciplinary Regulations, is made against you, the bank will give you the opportunity to defend yourself. You will be given time to do this, following consultation with your line manager. If you are the subject of a disciplinary complaint procedure covered by the Disciplinary Regulations, the bank will pay the cost of the legal assistance you require. This does not apply, however, if the bank has good grounds to believe at the outset that you acted in a seriously culpable manner. You can obtain legal assistance from a person designated by the bank. If you opt for legal assistance from another service provider, the bank will make a one-off payment to you of up to EUR 5,000, including VAT, towards the cost of this legal assistance. If the complaint is upheld by the Disciplinary Committee or a higher authority to which an appeal is made,...
Dilemmas. Over the course of the negotiation process, Pax Christi Netherlands saw itself confronted with a number of dilemmas. Peace versus justice The more general peace-building dilemma of whether to prioritize justice (trying war criminals) or peace (ending the violence) was, and still is, the most hotly debated issue with regard to the northern Ugandan process. The ICC was unwilling to compro- mise on the justice issue, emphasizing that without justice there would be no true peace. Local civil society groups in northern Uganda were divided, but many took a surprisingly forgiving stance towards the LRA and stated that ending the violence was most important, at whatever 12 · NGO involvement in Juba cost. Pax Christi tended towards the latter position: the everyday costs of the war were simply too high. In its contributions to the debate it emphasized the importance of the possibility for the victims of injustice of ‘owning’, identifying with, the justice meted out to those responsible for the war crimes. Furthermore, bringing the five LRA leaders to court would by definition be a limited and one-sided way to ensure justice for the victims of crimes committed by both sides. Trust-building versus legitimizing criminals That ‘addressing the root causes of the conflict’ was put on the agenda was largely due to Pax Christi, which had stressed these issues already in its reaction to the Bigombe process. In retrospect, Xxx Xxxxxxx’s insistence on dealing with the root causes of the conflict, which is crucial for the sustainability of peace, might have given the LRA a legitimacy which it claimed, but no longer deserved. Confidentiality versus transparency When Xxx Xxxxxxx engaged in the peace process, it had the intention to keep the negotiations confidential, if possible until the day an agreement was reached. By severely limiting the choice of venues, the ICC indictments frustrated this plan. Under normal circumstances Juba would never have been an option. The vis- ibility of the talks hindered informal contacts and confidence-building between the members of the delegations. Fear of being suspected of a lack of loyalty restricted the interaction between the individual members of the two delegations. The presence of the press sometimes gave xxxxx- xxxx the opportunity to turn the negotiations into an unhelpful public drama. The back-channel negotiations at Mombasa and Nairobi were insulated from the media in order to encourage the parties to participate freely. Though IK...
