Sinn Fein
Sinn Féin MP Conor Murphy said today that a party delegation led by Martin McGuinness held its first bilateral meeting with the DUP since preparatory talks began two weeks ago.
Conor Murphy said:
“A Sinn Féin delegation led by Martin McGuinness met with Peter Robinson and the DUP’s talks team for comprehensive discussions across a wide range of issues.
We are disappointed that the DUP has yet to participate in a plenary session of talks. We need a credible talks process involving all the parties, the two governments and the support of the US administration.
Sinn Féin is committed to finding a way forward.
We will have a series of meetings tomorrow with the two governments, former Senator Gary Hart, the UUP and the Alliance Party.”
