Despite the ongoing issues of the Political Protocol in the University of Ulster, a successful debate titled '10 Years Since the Good Friday Agreement' took place last week.

Sinn Féin's Martina Anderson MLA and Cllr. Colm Eastwood of the SDLP, spoke and answered questions from the floor in a healthy debate.

Chairperson of the Sinn Féin society in the University of Ulster Magee, Jack Murray said he was "delighted to see the debate take place" and encouraged the University of Ulster to "take a hard look at their Political Protocol."

He commented further,

"10 Years of change needs to be recognised by the University of Ulster. They should take a hard look at their protocol and ask themselves is it in-line with society in Ireland in 2008."

"Unfortunately they will find it is not. It is our view that this protocol must go immediately.
