UKUP principles on decommissioning

Writing Peace: David Trimble Collection

Robert McCartney QC MP, representing the UK Unionist Party, outlines the principles that the party believes should guide the decommissioning process in the Northern Ireland peace talks. The document stipulates that Sinn Féin or any party associated with terrorist groups must declare a complete and permanent ceasefire and subscribe to the six Mitchell Principles. Additionally, it requires both the British and Irish governments to ensure that Sinn Féin's participation in the talks is contingent upon this ceasefire and the enactment of necessary legislation for decommissioning. The UK Unionist Party also emphasizes that the decommissioning process should proceed independently of the political negotiations, calling on other pro-Union parties to adopt these principles.
