We have drawn on a number of different sources to compile this list of events. It is used to interweave events taking place outside the negotiations with our digital timelines.
"The Combined Loyalist Military Command (CLMC), speaking on behalf of all Loyalist paramilitary organisations, announced in a statement a ceasefire as from midnight: "... the CLMC will universally cease all operational hostilities as from 12 midnight on Thursday the 13th October 1994. The permanence of our cease-fire will be completely dependent upon the continued cessation of all nationalist/republican violence; ..." Thus the Loyalist ceasefire was made conditional on no return to violence by the Irish Republican Army (IRA). [...] The CLMC offered "abject and true remorse" to "innocent" victims of Loyalist violence. [It was unclear which victims of Loyalist paramilitaries were considered "innocent".] John Major, then British Prime Minister, said the announcement was, "another important part of the jigsaw falling into place". Albert Reynolds, then Taoiseach (Irish Prime Minister), made a statement in the Daíl about the ceasefire: "This decision effectively signifies the end of twenty-five years of violence, and the closure of a tragic chapter in our history"."
