i27770

The document, dated 25 June 1997, outlines the joint position of the British and Irish Governments on the issue of decommissioning paramilitary weapons in Northern Ireland. The governments emphasize their commitment to the total disarmament of all paramilitary organizations, advocating for voluntary and mutual decommissioning within the context of comprehensive political negotiations. They propose mechanisms to ensure progress, including the establishment of an Independent Commission and subcommittees focused on decommissioning and confidence-building measures. The document also stresses the importance of adherence to democratic principles and non-violence by all participants, and the need for periodic reviews to maintain momentum and trust in the negotiation process.
