PN deputy leader election: 'No decision yet' - Fenech and de Marco

Tonio Fenech and Mario de Marco this morning said they have not yet decided whether to contest the Nationalist Party's deputy leadership post. Asked about their intentions this morning during a joint press conference on public procurement, both said they had not yet decided. Mr Fenech said he had taken no decision yet while Dr de Marco added he will make his intentions known in the coming days. At one point, Dr de Marco jokingly turned to Mr Fenech and told him "I will be your campaign manager". Asked whether there was any agreement for MEP Simon Busuttil to be the sole candidate, Mr Fenech responded that he was not aware of any such arrangement. The PN executive yesterday established that the election for the post will be held between November 29 and December 2.
