Record of Meeting between Danny McNeill and John Hume Regarding Hume's Contact with Sinn Féin on 4 January 1991

Writing Peace: The National Archives of the UK (TNA)

1991-01-04

This document provides an account of the meeting between Danny McNeill and John Hume on 4 January 1991 regarding Hume's talks with Sinn Féin, where Hume confirmed that the Christmas ceasefire of 1990 was a signal that PIRA was interested in pursuing the cessation of violence. Hume had also briefed Taoiseach Charles Haughey on the same, and Haughey was willing to consider acting with the British Government in the form of a joint declaration or convening an all-Ireland Forum with the British Government's agreement. The record shows that both Hume and Haughey preferred achieving an end to violence over the success of the talks initiative. The date is incorrectly noted as 1990, and should read 1991.
