MP Marwan Hamadeh on Saturday predicted difficulties in efforts to appoint commanders for security administrations and other main posts in the public sector.
"It wouldn”t be easy to appoint anyone to fill in the vacant posts before the parliamentary elections" of 2009, Hamade said in a radio interview.
He was apparently referring mainly to the posts of Army Commander, Director of military intelligence and director of General Security.
The post of army commander went vacant by the election of Gen. Michel Suleiman President. The post is held now by Chief of Staff Gen. Shawki al-Masri as Acting army commander.
Premier Fouad Saniora”s cabinet would not achieve "miracles," Hamade said.
He said the Phalange Party and the Lebanese Forces have expressed reservations over the cabinet”s policy statement draft and "might practice such reservations through their ministers in the cabinet."
