In a letter dated 7 June 1996, Patrick Mayhew addresses David Trimble regarding his party's dissatisfaction with the proposed agenda for the Opening Plenary session of the negotiations set to begin on June 10. The Secretary of State expresses regret over Trimble's discontent and notes that it is too late to revise the agenda before the session. The letter clarifies that the arrangements described in the opening day scenario paper are merely proposals from the two Governments and that it will be up to the participants to decide whether to adopt them. Mayhew emphasizes that the initial items on the agenda are crucial as they pertain to the implementation of the six Mitchell principles, which Trimble's party fully supports. The letter suggests that any issues with the agenda can be addressed after this key element is completed and mentions an upcoming meeting with Senator Mitchell and General de Chastelain.
