- Office of the Strand 2 Independent Chairman
Office of the Strand 2 Independent Chairman
Sir Ninian Stephen was appointed as the independent Chairman of Strand 2 of the Brooke/Mayhew talks. Officially, he took over from the Secretary of State at this point in terms of chairing the talks, and consequently receiving and circulating documents. However, in practice, the Secretary of State and the British Government delegation continued to play a role in the chairing of the overall talks process, most notably insofar as they continued to conduct bilterals with all of the parties as the process ran into difficulties. We have therefore decided to create a separate committee for the Office of the Independent Chairman in order to show the two Chairs working in parallel. We have fewer internal documents for Sir Ninian's team since we do not have access to his archive.
