Scope and content

Letter from Boyle to Keen, Administrator, British-Irish Association, thanking her for the invitation of the B.I.A. to the first post-Belfast Agreement conference. Boyle sets out in detail the points discussed by him and Tom Hadden on what implications the new British-Irish relationships might have for the BIA in terms of its future role. Boyle outlines the history and founding goal of the BIA. "It was modelled on the Anglo-German Conference, per David Astor.". . . "The BIA meetings inevitably became more political . . .", discusses the focus of the direction of influence of the BIA, governance and membership of the BIA and other such related issues. Manuscript annotation by Boyle is featured on reverse of last page.
