Making Hay

- 30 Apr 07, 06:20 PM
Just reported on Radio Ulster's Evening Extra that Willie Hay will be the next Speaker. Sinn Fein had been keen that the role should be rotated with two years for the DUP, followed by two years for Sinn Fein's Francie Molloy. But although they are keen to secure the position in the next Assembly, they have now conceded that the DUP can take the job for the next four years.

A very complicated political question to test the limits of your knowledge of the Northern Ireland devolved power sharing assembly...
What does MLA stand for ? [sorry..]
Surely not Member of Liberal Assembly ?
That would imply a political affiliation
I've looked everywhere, but everyone seems to assume 'previous knowledge' on this one..
MLA - Member of the Legislative Assembly.
Nice 'work' if you can get it.
Member of the Legislative Assembly
