CHARLOTTETOWN Politicians in Prince Edward Island will return to the legislature in April.
Premier Robert Ghiz says the spring session will begin April 4 with a throne speech delivered by Lt.-Gov. Frank Lewis.
The fall session ended Nov. 9, marking the shortest house sitting in the province's history.
Most of the work centred around electing a new Speaker and passing the capital budget.
At the time, Ghiz made no apologies about the brief duration of the session, saying it's common practice after a provincial election.
Islanders gave Ghiz's Liberals their second-straight majority last October.
