Simon Coveney will meet the Northern Ireland Secretary today to ask what his plans are for fresh elections.

Chris Heaton-Harris has failed to announce a date for a new poll, despite having a legal obligation to do so after the latest failed attempt to restore a power-sharing government.

It's thought the new British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is hoping that ongoing negotiations between Britain and the EU over Brexit, may result in a move on the Nothern Ireland Protocol which the DUP is insisting be scrapped.

The Foreign Affairs Minister will seek clarity today from Mr. Heaton-Harris on the latest developments.
