Ahern to meet North's new Justice Minister today

Justice Minister Dermot Ahern will meet the the North's new Justice Minister at Stormont today.

David Forde was elected to the position last Monday, as part of the devolution of policing and justice powers.

The meeting will also be attended by the PSNI Chief Constable Matt Baggott and the Garda Commissioner Fachtna Murphy.

Ahern says the threat from dissident republicans will be high on the agenda.
