In Haiti the nomination of PM-designate, Gary Conille, has been approved by the Chamber of Deputies. In fact, the nomination was approved by all 89 deputies who voted! What a turnaround.

The nomination now goes to the Senate. Radio Kiskeya is reporting that at least one senator has denounced the vote. One of the major stumbling blocks seems to be the constitutional requirement for residency in Haiti. PM-designate Conille has been absent on UN business. The Chamber of Deputies decided to find a way around this potential problem. The Senate may not do so.
