FORMER PNM vice-chairman Robert Le Hunte said under the PNM constitution, the party can continue to run with the remaining members of the executive until the convention when a new political leader is elected. He said this must happen within six months.

Political leader Dr Keith Rowley, chairman Stuart Young and deputy political leader Rohan Sinanan resigned on April 30 and Dr Rowley revoked the appointments of deputy political leaders Dr Nyan Gadsby-Dolly and Colm Imbert.

This leaves general secretary Foster Cummings, lady vice-chair Camille Robinson-Regis and deputy political leader Ancil Dennis as the remaining members of the party executive. On May 1, Arima MP Pennelope Beckles was chosen by the party to be Opposition Leader.
