After committing to the Occupied Territories Bill during the election the Government have now walked away.

This blatant u-turn is a cynical and monumental act of bad faith.

No more excuses, no more prevarication, enact the Occupied Territories Bill now!

The DUP Education Minister oversaw £710,000 in funding for a state-of-the-art pitch at a school already overflowing with facilities, while many other schools struggle.

This decision smacks of cronyism.

Sinn Féin will continue to hold the Minister to account.
