News coverage of Blair and Ahern's visit to Belfast Waterfront Hall to announce the deal that didn't happen and the reaction from local parties. Reports begin with Ken Reid's analysis concentrating on the positive aspects of what was agreed, despite the transparency of decommissioning issue not being agreed, then first film report covering this morning's DUP meeting with John DeChastelein (Decommissioning Body, Head). Afterwards, I. Paisley said the IRA aren't going to decommission as nothing had been agreed with DeChastelein, he says he won't talk to their representatives (SF) until the IRA is done with guns and criminality. He refuses to withdraw anything he has said about the blood thirsty monsters of the IRA, then M. McLaughlin (SF) says Paisley's tried to humiliate the IRA and this has impaired the negotiations, and he says it was designed to do so. Then in the afternoon the two Prime Ministers arrived at the Waterfront Hall. Blair begins by outlining what was agreed. He says he's weary as a traveller but there's an inevitability about the process that's not locked in and he can't see the process going backwards, he will he says put in the extra effort to finish the journey. Then B. Ahern (Irish Prime Minister) comments on this hugely impressive landmark package. Not quite a total success but he'll keep working on it to see things through. Next film report looks at the devil in the detail of today's Government document, listing all the things that were agreed and the one item, visibility, that wasn?t. It begins back in September at Leeds Castle and what concessions started the process towards today's Government document, in arms, government and demilitaristion issues. The next film report comes from Gerry Adams press conference, he says what's holding agreement up is the DUP demand for a process of humiliation. He talks positively of the progress that was made. Then from a DUP press conference I. Paisley says the IRA wouldn't discuss with DeChastelein any matters concerning decommissioning, when or how or inventory, or the independent witness idea. He refutes Adams view the deal fell on solely the photos issue. Next report comes from Belfast City Centre, where shoppers are asked for their views on events, dissappointment seems to be the general mood. Then in the studio, Ian Paisley (DUP Leader) is asked why the word of a trusted protestant clergyman who could witness decommissioning isn't better than photos. Paisley replies that the previous three decommissioning charades shattered peoples belief and the people need to see decommissioning to re-establish their belief. The Clergyman idea can't do that on it's own, seeing is believing. Paisley then comments on the trust idea and questions trusting Blairs word, he outlines the photos he wants taken, and again repeats what DeChastelein told him today. In a further film report, S, Mallon (SDLP) gives his reaction how a deal's central point wasn?t resolved over three months of talks, then David Ford (Alliance) feels if success isn't managed by mid-January everything might collapse, then Robert Eames (Church of Ireland, Primate) statement followed by a Gerry Adams (SF) interview in the studio, he's asked is a photo humiliation? Adams says against huge difficulties, the talks delivered the substance of what the DUP wanted, yet he himself called the decommissioning issue a process of humiliation, demanding witnesses and a photo album. Adams says he warned Paisley about his language on the matter and he also comments on Paisley's role in forming Ulster Resistance, and the views of the Republican heartlands on these matters. Adams tells his people in reply how far Paisley has moved, accepting Sinn Fein in Government, despite a lifetime of opposition. Adams says Paisley should engage in face to fave talks then live from London D. Trimble (UUP Leader) says it's interesting that the DUP accept the Government paper has solved all issues except the modalities of decommissioning because the paper makes no changes to the Good Friday Agreement, which the DUP seem now to accept. Trimble claims he's still got a role, they're the architects and the implementor of the agreement. Then in the studio, Ken Reid gives his views on the Blame Game that has begun and what the governments will do now with a General election due next May. He feels the government will try and bank what has been agreed as that agreement was remarkable, he feels an agreement will now happen, it's just a matter of when.

Paisley denies he used the photo issue to get out of a deal, but Adams says photos were always a Paisley demand for humiliation. Robinson highlights Bloody Friday bombs thirty two years ago on site of Waterfront Hall, as mark of how far things have progressed, but no final deal as yet. Next report from Angus Walker in Belfast looks at the issue of photographic evidence and it's importance to the DUP. He visits Unionist areas to hear how people there support the DUP stance, then in Republican areas where Paisley's demands are rejected by people there.
