Robin Butler was to convey the message from John Major that JD12 would not work, and that the whole initiative was not seen by the British government as a viable option at this point. This conclusion was to be justified with reference to the hostile climate created by knowledge of the Hume/Adams dialogue, and a predicted upsurge in Loyalist terrorism were the British government to go ahead with a Declaration in green language. It also specifically makes the inclusion of the constitutional guarantee in the crucial paragraph 4 a breaking point.
