Description

In light of the UFF (cover name for the UDA) breaking its ceasefire, the British and Irish governments decided to expel the UDP from the talks, by which time the UDP had already left the talks venue. A document released on UDP participation indicated that the UDP could re-enter talks if the UFF maintained its ceasefire.
