The Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) announced on 8 September 1997, that their Talks Team would not attend the inter-party talks at Castle Grounds, Stormont, scheduled for the following day. The UUP stated that attending the talks would pre-empt the upcoming meeting of their Party Executive on Saturday. They criticized the talks as a charade, arguing that Sinn Féin's commitment to the Mitchell principles lacked credibility and emphasizing that actions, rather than words, are necessary to build confidence within the community. The UUP also noted that no further interviews or statements would be made on this matter.
