PER CURIAM:

AND NOW, this 11th day of September, 2001, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is GRANTED, and the matter is VACATED and REMANDED to the Superior Court for consideration of the merits of petitioner’s claim that plea counsel rendered ineffective assistance when he advised petitioner that he would be eligible to participate in the motivational boot camp program after serving two years of his four year minimum sentence.
