Alliance Leader Naomi Long Urges Reform for Stable Government in Stormont Assembly

…By Henry George for TDPel Media.

During a hearing with the Northern Ireland Affairs Committee, she also questioned Secretary of State Chris Heaton-Harris about the prolonged period without fully functioning devolved government in Northern Ireland.

This recent instability follows a three-year collapse of the Assembly after the resignation of former Sinn Fein deputy first minister Martin McGuinness in 2017.

While reform of the Assembly is not a precondition for her party’s return to government, she emphasized its necessity for good and stable governance.
