Enclosure 1: Paper on confidentiality emerging from discussions on 23 September 1996

Writing Peace: David Trimble Collection

The document outlines the agreed points and questions for discussion regarding confidentiality in the multi-party talks leading to the Good Friday Agreement. It specifies that records of formal meetings, minutes, and documents produced by the Office of the Independent Chairmen or participants will not be shared with non-participants unless agreed upon by all participants or required by judicial or police proceedings. The rule of confidentiality applies to the two Governments, the Independent Chairmen, and the participating political parties. Additionally, the document raises questions for discussion about regular media briefings, the duration of the confidentiality period, the consequences of breaching confidentiality, and the handling of third-party responses to accusations of breaches.
