The constituents of the People’s Alliance have decided that the
executive presidency will be abolished as promised in 1994 and provided for in the
constitutional reforms presented to parliament in October 1997, but transitional
provisions will be discussed with other political parties, Justice, Constitutional Affairs
and National Integration Minister G.L. Peiris said yesterday. |
