The UK Unionist Party's motion on decommissioning outlines conditions for the participation of parties in the negotiations. The motion stipulates that any party associated with paramilitary organizations must declare a complete and permanent cessation of violence and terrorism. Specifically, it calls for Sinn Féin, the Progressive Unionist Party, and the Ulster Democratic Party to publicly endorse the Mitchell Principles. Additionally, the motion demands that any declaration of cessation must be accompanied by the immediate decommissioning of a significant portion of arms as a demonstration of commitment to peaceful methods. It emphasizes that progress towards a settlement must be based solely on democratic procedures, independent of the decommissioning process. Furthermore, the motion requires that all necessary legislation and regulations for decommissioning be enacted before any party can participate in substantive negotiations. Finally, it asserts that all terms and requirements agreed upon before the start of substantive negotiations will be binding on all current and future participants relevant to the decommissioning process.
