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

This minute, prepared by David Cooke for Prime Minister John Major, outlines points of discussion for a meeting that was going to take place on 14 March 1993. Cooke discussed the aspirations of the Irish Government and John Hume, hoping that the Joint Declaration would persuade PIRA to cease its campaign of violence. He also delved into the progress made by the Butler/Nally group, the Taoiseach's assurances regarding the initiative, discussions regarding an explicit reference to Northern Ireland's constitutional guarantee, and Cooke's communication with Jim Molyneaux.
