This document outlines the initial report of the Independent International Commission on Decommissioning, established by the Governments of the United Kingdom and Ireland in 1997. The Commission's legal mandate, strategy, and guiding principles are detailed, including the establishment, tasks, and mandate given by the two Governments. The report addresses key issues related to decommissioning, focusing on weapons, ammunition, and explosives held by paramilitary groups engaged in the ceasefire. The document discusses the operational features of decommissioning, including phases such as contact, deployment, decommissioning, and post-decommissioning. It also highlights the technical assistance required for the decommissioning process and concludes with a call for peace and cooperation in the decommissioning efforts. [The report was presented to the liaison subcommittee on decommissioning on 25 November 1997.]
