ARMS DECOMMISSIONING
Early day motion 1815, tabled 27 October 2003 by David Burnside (Independent Ulster Unionist). Signed by 3 members.
That this House welcomes the act of decommissioning by the Provisional IRA in October; regrets the number and types of guns and amounts of explosives have not yet been made public; and calls on the IRA and all so-called loyalist paramilitary groups to announce and carry out in a public, transparent and quantifiable manner the decommissioning of all illegally held arms and explosives by Christmas Day 2004 and commit their political front organisations such as Sinn Fein to use totally legal and democratic methods in the future.
Signatures by party: Conservative 2, Independent Ulster Unionist 1.
