ARBIL, Iraq, May 7, 2006 (AFP) — Kurdish lawmakers in Iraq's northern Kurdistan on Sunday voted for a single administration to run their autonomous region, ending the previous system of two separate local governments.

"We now have one government for Kurdistan," the speaker of the Kurdish parliament, Adnan Mufti, said after the 111 parliamentarians voted unanimously in favour of one adminstration.
