Political Negotiations and Continuing Violence Motion

There are 0 proposed amendments related to this document on which decisions have not been taken.

The Northern Ireland Forum regrets that continuing violence and the threat of violence has inhibited the progress of free and fair negotiations at the Stormont talks; calls upon any present or future Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland to initiate fresh negotiations directed to a democratic settlement within the United Kingdom; and, recognizing that Sinn Fein/IRA are irrevocably wedded to violence, calls for such fresh negotiations to be only between those dedicated exclusively to democratic procedures.
