Enclosure: Speaking Note for Robin Butler's Meeting with Albert Reynolds on 20 October 1993

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

Robin Butler was to convey the message from John Major that JD12 would not work, and that the whole initiative was not seen by the British government as a viable option at this point. This conclusion was to be justified with reference to the hostile climate created by knowledge of the Hume/Adams dialogue, and a predicted upsurge in Loyalist terrorism were the British government to go ahead with a Declaration in green language. It also specifically makes the inclusion of the constitutional guarantee in the crucial paragraph 4 a breaking point.
