Hain: I won't be rushed on UVF ceasefire
Northern Ireland Secretary Peter Hain today said he would not be rushed into any quick-fix judgments on the loyalist Ulster Volunteer Force’s ceasefire.
As he prepared to meet SDLP politicians, party leader Martin Durkan said the failure of the Government to declare the UVF ceasefire invalid, after a bloody summer which has seen the organisation kill four people in Belfast, was unacceptable.
