Justice Minister Naomi Long has reiterated her view that she sees “no substantive reason” for a judge-led review into the Bobby Storey funeral.

Mrs Long also told the Assembly that comments last week from the Loyalist Communities Council (LCC) that violence in opposition to the Northern Ireland protocol is not “off the table”, were “reckless”.
