The refugee crisis is still dominating the news - and the political agenda in Europe. European Union ministers are expected to approve a plan to relocate 120,000 refugees across the EU. At Stormont, MLAs have been calling for Northern Ireland to do its bit. An Assembly resolution passed yesterday called on the Executive to make sure plans are in place to welcome Syrian refugees here. But not everyone believes large-scale relocation is a good idea.
SDLP MLA Claire Hanna spoke in the Assembly debate yesterday. Columnist Julia Hartley-Brewer is also on the line.
