Prime Ministers Margaret Thatcher of Britain and Garret FitzGerald of Ireland held what was described as a “very good meeting” on Northern Ireland. The two leaders, in Brussels for a Common Market conference, agreed that talks on the Ulster question should continue at ministerial and official levels, a joint statement said. It added: “They agreed that there was real merit in continuing the process. It is, however, not possible at this stage to predict the eventual outcome.”
