Women constitute 14 per cent of the 108 member parliament in Northern Ireland, created in 1998 as an outgrowth of the peace process. Using data from 45 interviews with 27 Members of the Legislative Assembly in 2000 and 2001, this study analyses the role of women in the new Assembly by comparing the women to their male colleagues and considering what opportunities are available for men and women to have an effect on the evolution of this institution. Though the men and women are very similar in their interests and attitudes, important differences exist between them and the institutional opportunities offered them
