Ulster Unionists to reject devolution deal
Staff and agencies
"The Ulster Unionist Party last night confirmed it will reject the deal brokered to stabilise Northern Ireland's power-sharing government when a crunch assembly vote is held today.
"It faced pressure from the government, from other Stormont politicians, plus past and present US administrations who called on the party to back the devolution of policing and justice powers to Northern Ireland.
"But last night Ulster Unionist leader Sir Reg Empey said his party's executive endorsed a decision to vote against the proposals, claiming the power-sharing government is not ready to take on the new powers."
