All change

Mark Devenport | 16:02 UK time, Thursday, 5 November 2009

It looks like we are soon going to get a couple of new MLAs. The SDLP's Carmel Hanna (who is currently sitting in a Health Committee meeting) is planning to retire. A selection meeting has been arranged for next month in South Belfast with Belfast councillor Bernie Kelly and former SDLP spin doctor and well known blogger Conall McDevitt thought to be in the running.

In East Londonderry, as was confirmed some time back, Sinn Fein's Francie Brolly is standing down.The selection meeting there is due later this month and it's believed the runners might include Limavady Councillor Brenda Chivers and Coleraine Councillor Billy Leonard - who, if selected, would be the first former police officer to make it into Sinn Fein's Stormont team.
