Constitutionally it is the Alliance Party...Checkov<br /><br />Constitutionally it is the Alliance Party Council that has to ratify any decision to take a Ministerial post. It is also a constitutional requirement that 14 days notice be given to delegates of an extraordinary Party Council meeting. Given recent events and the potential fast pace of proceedings it makes sense that a meeting be called in anticipation of movement on the issue.<br /><br />However, there may be no such proposition put to Party Council on the 24 February. Alliance have been clear that there must be: 1) movement on a shared future strategy, namely the CSI report and 2) a broad level of agreement on the policy programme that a potential Minister for Justice can implement once appointed, before Alliance will consider putting a candidate forward for the post. This meeting could be used to update party members on the current situation.<br /><br />Also Alliance called upon the UUP and SDLP to play a constructive role in the negotiation of the Hillsborough Agreement. Alliance hasn’t said that they are duty bound to back it. Unfortunately the SDLP and especially the UUP were more concerned with whinging and moaning rather than playing a constructive role throughout negotiation period. Whilst there may be agreement over the nature of the ministerial post and the process of appointment, there are issues outside of that that Alliance require movement on before considering nominating for the post.Michael Bowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03283761350580133515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623721153002721356.post-50610471428411752022010-02-09T16:08:00.332+00:002010-02-09T16:08:00.332+00:00I'll tell you what is bad form:

That is what the UUP position is. <br /><br />Aside from that even if you don't and simply allocate the ministry to the next party, perhaps you could tell me where exactly the logic is in denouncing the prospect of an Alliance minister on the basis of them being "non-Unionist", whilst a matter of days later enthusiastically embracing the idea of an SDLP nominee for the post?<br /><br />Furthermore, you must be completely out of your head if you think Alban Maguinness could command widespread community confidence.
