The people have agreed to it. We are not prepared to cause  obstructions to it. We will see as to what points we can agree on and we  will provide our fullest support to it,` MP Nimal Siripala de Silva  said.  Mr. de Silva said they would accept the new Prime Minister even though there were some constitutional issues in appointing him.  `A new Prime Minister was sworn in. There may be constitutional  issues with regard to the appointment of the Prime Minister, however he  has been sworn in. We assume that they will appoint their own cabinet of  ministers,` he said.  He said all the ministerial portfolios are considered to be void after the new Prime Minister was sworn in Friday.  `We are not going to raise any technical issues,` he added.  Addressing the same press briefing, the UPFA Parliamentarian Dinesh  Gunawardena said that the people of the country expect President  Sirisena to implement his 100-day programme and as the legislative group  with a majority in Parliament they will support the endeavor.  President`s 100-day plan says at the end of 100 days period a  Parliamentary system will be put in place instead of the Executive  Presidential system and a National Government of all parties represented  in Parliament will be established to govern for a period of at least  two years.</blockquote>
