Reid considers representational politics

Senator Ruel Reid
 
Senator Ruel Reid, Minister of Education, Youth and Information, has said he is considering entering representational politics.
 
Senator Reid in responding to questions posed by the media on Tuesday said he is being encouraged to take the step.
 
He was asked whether he was interested in the St. Andrew North Western seat which has been vacated by Derrick Smith.
 
"I really don't want to create any public issue on the matter at this stage cause I'm sure the party will do its internal work and the candidates that it fields using the processes of the party will be selected as the party's flag-bearer in the constituency," he told reporters.  
 
Mr. Smith's resignation from Parliament reportedly took effect on Monday. His exist comes 35 years after he entered representational politics in 1983.
