IRA ruling Army Council may be disbanded
Martin McGuinness is to enter into talks with Peter Robinson, the Northern Ireland First Minister, about disbanding the IRA's ruling army council, in an attempt to break the province's political deadlock.
The continued existence of the council is at the centre of mounting political disagreement holding up the transfer of policing powers from Westminster to Northern Ireland.
It's coming up to 10 years since the Good Friday peace agreement, and if there is no ongoing war then there is no need for a IRA ruling council and it should be disbanded. If the need arises in the future, I am sure the mothballs will be shaken off before normal service will be resumed.
