Alliance Party Leader Sean Neeson is calling on the British and Irish Governments to state publicly that the Good Friday Agreement is not up for grabs after the forthcoming Westminster Election.

Mr Neeson says:

"It is time for the DUP and Sinn Féin to get real and understand that the Agreement is not up for re-negotiation. All the concessions and compromises have already been made and what is required is the delivery of the outstanding issues. I am contacting both governments to make public that this is the case and that recent statements by Sinn Féin and the DUP are only ploys to mislead the electorate".
