Trimble expressed satisfaction that the procedural motion, which included key phrases on consent and decommissioning, was passed with sufficient consensus, despite Sinn Féin's opposition. He highlighted the significance of isolating Sinn Féin and breaking up the pan-nationalist front, viewing it as a crucial step towards achieving progress in the negotiations.
