Enclosure: Alliance's submission on the breaches of the Mitchell Principles by UUP, DUP, PUP and UDP, 10 September 1996

Writing Peace: George J. Mitchell Collection

This document outlines Alliance's threefold representations alleging breaches of the Mitchell Principles by the UUP, DUP, PUP, and UDP. The first section details the involvement of the UUP and DUP leadership in the July 1996 Drumcree crisis, both directly and indirectly through their organizational ties with the Orange Order. The second section discusses the PUP and UDP's failure to condemn threats made by the CLMC against Billy Wright. Lastly, the document covers DUP leader William McCrea's participation in a Portadown rally supporting Billy Wright, identified in the press as a militant loyalist and opponent of a loyalist ceasefire. Alliance contends that all these instances constitute breaches of the Mitchell Principles.
