Ulster -What Next?
Presented by Gerald Priestland When the Constitutional Convention of Northern Ireland adjourned earlier this month, there were few signs that the province was any nearer to a political solution. And the talks, informal and official, between the parties, have gone on against a background of undiminished violence. What chance is there of compromise on the crucial question of power-sharing? How important is Mr William Craig 's campaign for political moderation? Can the Convention find a constitutional settlement ' likely to command the most widespread acceptance throughout the community '?
Producer MICHAEL GREEN
