Sinn Féin is up for reforming the Stormont institutions to remove the ability of one party to collapse powersharing, Conor Murphy has said.

Northern Ireland's economy minister said his party recognised that the veto was a “continued problem” and was keen to find agreement with other parties to reform the structures.
