All eyes on Stormont today. Talks to save the Assembly start tomorrow.

They have to tackle the welfare reform stalemate and the fall-out from the police assessment that the IRA is still around.

The DUP has vowed it will not be business as usual today over the IRA issue. Secretary of State Theresa Villiers has upped the pressure on Sinn Fein.

She says that if there's no deal on welfare, David Cameron's government will intervene and impose the reforms itself.

She's also released funding for a major public sector job cuts programme, involving voluntary redundancies.

On the line - the DUP's Arlene Foster.
