Pressure on coalition as Dewar faces operation
2000
Overview
However, Labour was also forced to move to ensure that it did not surrender its power as the majority executive partner. Jim Wallace, the Lib Dem deputy first minister, will deputise for Mr Dewar, but it was confirmed last night that Henry McLeish, the enterprise minister, will share control on the orders of the First Minister. Labour back-benchers, who gave broad support to Mr McLeish's elevation, indicated that it had put a swift end to fears that the Lib Dems would use Mr Dewar's illness to try to dominate executive policy. Mr Dewar, 62, is due to be admitted to hospital within four to six weeks to have a mechanical device fitted to replace a leaking aortic heart valve. Doctors said he could suffer heart failure if the procedure were not carried out urgently. He will need to spend ten days in hospital recovering from the surgery, before convalescing at home for up to 12 weeks.
