The forum’s meeting coincided with the gathering of a splinter group of the Minority caucus which resolved it would no longer contest the Speakership seat of the next Assembly.
The Minority Caucus, which tagged itself, the Greater Majority, had set up an 11-man Committee to search for any member interested in the presiding seats of the 10th House of Representatives.
