Talks between all major parties in the North are due to take place later today in an effort to get the Northern Ireland Assembly back up and running.
The talks which will come following an eventful week in terms of the political landscape across the border, will see all five party leaders descend on Stormont in an effort to reach an agreement to get the Assembly back up and running in January.
It is believed that all parties are keen to get the Assembly running following the UK election results on Thursday.
The talks will come over 1,000 days since the last sitting at Stormont.
