Enclosure: Procedural motion proposed by the British and Irish governments to the Plenary

Writing Peace: David Trimble Collection

The document, dated 24 September 1997, outlines a proposed procedural motion for the plenary session of the negotiations leading to the Good Friday Agreement. It details the agreement to adjourn certain discussions to future plenary sessions and welcomes the appointment of General de Chastelain as Chairman of the Independent Commission, alongside Senator Mitchell and Prime Minister Holkeri as Joint Chairmen of Strand Two. The plenary emphasizes the critical role of decommissioning in the negotiation process and establishes two subcommittees: one on Decommissioning and another on Confidence Building Measures, both tasked with assisting in the implementation of relevant aspects of the International Body's Report. The document concludes by launching the three-stranded negotiations, inviting relevant chairmen to convene meetings, and setting a schedule for reviewing progress to ensure sustained confidence and momentum towards an agreement.
