[SDLP Statement Proposed by the UK Government to Break the Impasse]

The SDLP [...] agree to a working up of arrangements which [exclude] a direct external input. They [...] do so on the basis that they [reserve] the right to return to their own preferred scheme in Strand 2 if the Unionists [do] not come forward with adequate proposals then. [In] principle [they could] live with a worked up scheme for internal government minus external commissioners provided the Strand 2 outcome was satisfactory.
