The British Government's paper on decommissioning, dated October 30 1996, outlines its endorsement of the International Body's report, which advocates for some decommissioning to occur during multi-party talks. The government emphasizes the importance of decommissioning illegal arms to build trust and confidence necessary for successful negotiations, and it supports the total and verifiable disarmament of all paramilitary organizations. The paper details the government's commitment to inclusive negotiations, the establishment of a committee to implement the report's recommendations, and the need for legislative measures to facilitate the decommissioning process. Additionally, it highlights the importance of confidence-building measures, including the cessation of paramilitary activities and the provision of information on missing persons, to foster trust among all parties involved.
