Dear Col. Ratwatte,
Thank you for your letter dated 13th December 1994.
We are impressed and encouraged by your assurance that the immediate and urgent 
issues facing the Tamil people will be given primacy and resolved. This is 
crucialfor the restoration of a peaceful environment and for the normalisation 
of civilian life.
We are pleased to note that you are willing to declare a cessation of 
hostilities on the fist of January 1995, for an initial period of two weeks. We 
wish to assure you that we will reciprocate by observing a cessation of 
hostilities during that period once you make an Official declaration and 
intimate the same to us by letter. The LTTE will also make a similar declaration 
and inform you.
You will appreciate that a detailed discussion clarifying the procedures and 
modalities of the implementation of the ceased re is vial before the declaration 
of cessation of hostilities. We are glad to note that you are prepared to send a 
delegation to Jaffna to discuss this issue. The Government delegation is welcome 
to Jaffna either on the 21st or 22nd of December as is convenient to them. 
Please confrm the date of arrival and the names and details of the Government 
delegates.
Thanking you. 
Yours Sincerely.
