This document contains a draft statement made by the Irish Government on 20 May 1996, likely in response to an interview with Gerry Adams wherein Adams said Sinn Féin was willing to commit to the Mitchell Principles if other parties were going to do the same. The statement calls Adams' statement a welcome announcement and expresses hope that this encourages PIRA to reinstate the ceasefire. The date and the word "urgent" are scribbled on the document with a marker.
