The process for the election of the deputy leader of the Nationalist Party can take a maximum of two months, but the party will seek to establish more reasonable timelines, PN General Secretary Paul Borg Olivier said today.

The PN Executive kicks off the process this evening by taking decisions on the appointment of an electoral commission and setting the timelines for the call for nominations and other stages of the process.

The post became vacant when Tonio Borg resigned on being nominated to serve as European Commissioner to succeed John Dalli.

Dr Borg Olivier spoke to Matthew Xuereb.
