NOTE FOR THE RECORD

POLITICAL MOVEMENT AND THE PROVISIONALS

The PUS chaired a meeting in the VCR on Thursday 14 February at which the following points for action were agreed:

(i) agreed to provide, in 2-3 weeks, a report encompassing any information on future intentions re the ceasefire coming out of the Republican movement in the light of the mortar bombing;

(ii) Further thought should be given to developing points in which the Provisionals would have an interest were they to consider a ceasefire or related topics. In particular Mr Ledlie agreed to pursue the issue of Republicans still in prison in Great Britain;

(iii) the other area to which thought would be given by those present was the identification of specific types of language towards which we would like to entice the Provisionals. Allied to this, but less in terms of specific language was the identification of any concessions we would need to seek from the Provisionals to ease the position of a British Government in responding to a ceasefire.
