McElduff critical of commission
Sinn Fein's Assembly member for West Tyrone Barry McElduff has
criticised the Patten Commission's plans to hold only one meeting
to cover Omagh and Strabane and it is being held during
work-hours on December 2.
``People in this area have a lot to say about future policing
arrangements in this society,'' said McElduff. ``This is why I am
unhappy at the hearings taking place during work-hours.''
McElduff has requested the Commission to schedule hearings for
the evening. He is also calling for two separate meetings to be
held in Castlederg and Carrickmore to ``properly gauge opinion in
these parts of Tyrone''.
