Hide AdMr. Bryson goes on to argue in the letter that the bonfire at the Adam Street site in North Belfast is covered by Articles 10 (expression) and 11 (association) of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR).
The location of the bonfire has been condemned for being too close to the predominantly Catholic working class New Lodge area.
"There is no legitimate reason to interfere with the Article 10 and 11 rights of the cultural group on this basis.
"In light of the huge tension within the community - which the bonfire group are keen to work with you to resolve for the benefit of all - I would ask for a speedy response to the request of a meeting."
