Former DUP leader and First Minister Arlene Foster is to leave the Assembly by the end of this month.
In a statement last night, she indicated the process to select her successor in the Fermanagh South Tyrone constituency has already begun.
It’s expected that Deborah Erskine, a Fermanagh and Omagh District councillor and former DUP press officer will be co-opted in Ms Foster’s place.
