Aims for the Prime Minister can be summarised as: cessation of PIRA violence; Unionist acceptance and absence of violence; acceptance by majority of moderate people in UK. Disagreement over drafts of the Joint Declaration and confusion over which audience is being targeted. Rev. Magee recorded as telling the Taoiseach that the unionist paramilitaries are represented by him, not by Paisley and colleagues, and that they would not quarrel with JD. Prime Minister had heard otherwise. PM keen to meet on 3 December but Taoiseach less keen on the basis that no profress was being made. Arguing over whether the leak came from the IRA or the British Government. Discussion of the proposal for an Irish Convention.
