Enclosure: Briefing for John Major's Meeting with Jim Molyneaux

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

1993-11-23

This outlines the points and arguments that the Prime Minister John Major should make should be meet Jim Molyneaux. This involves reaffirming the British and Irish Government's commitment to a Joint Statement despite the Humes/Adams statement and the leak of an Irish draft paper. He should be clear about the desire for the statement to begin concrete moves towards an end to violence, but that the British have drawn up their own version of the Declaration that will be more amicable to the Unionist community. Despite this, Major should be clear that Molyneaux cannot see this text nor is it right to ask for his approval at this stage.
