Jeffrey Donaldson, MP for the Ulster Unionist Party, provided an aide-memoire summarizing a meeting with Tony Blair on 10 September 1997 to the Prime Minister's Chief of Staff Jonathan Powell. The document memo outlines key points discussed, including the principle of consent as a guiding factor in the talks, the application of a sufficient consensus mechanism, and the Irish government's desire for actual decommissioning during negotiations. It also details the Ulster Unionist Party's request for General de Chastelain to chair both the Strand Two talks and the International Disarmament and Verification Commission, with Prime Minister Holkeri as an alternate. Additionally, the memo addresses various confidence-building measures, such as police reform, local authority empowerment, and the establishment of a commission to support victims of terrorism.
