North's leaders to discuss appointment of Minister for Justice

Political leaders in the North meet today to discuss who should be their new Minister for Justice.

Alliance Party leader David Ford is favourite for the job, but he says he needs more clarity on the workings of the position.

Meanwhile the First and Deputy First Ministers Peter Robinson and Martin McGuinness last night appointed a working group on how to tackle the issue of parades.

The six members are all drawn from the Assembly and only the DUP and Sinn Féin are represented.
