Northern Ireland

Asked if there was anything further from the talks the Prime Minster had held yesterday with Dr. Paisley, the PMOS said no, but he added that the DUP were going to return with some proposals, and it was a chance to have a longer discussion than the one last Friday in the aftermath of the robbery. The PMOS said what was noticeable was the uniformity of view now expressed by all leaders of political parties, both North and South, except Sinn Fein, about what had happened and the unacceptability of it.

Asked if there were any plans for meeting with Sinn Fein at the moment, the PMOS said there were none at this time, but there would be meetings in the future. The purpose of them would be to deliver a message that these activities must be brought to an end.
