Youth Commonwealth Games
It's official, Northern Ireland will now not play host to the Youth Commonwealth Games in 2021.
The reason - funding was not signed off by the Stormont executive before it collapsed.
The Northern Ireland Commonwealth Games Council (NICGC) criticised the failure to guarantee funding saying it was "a slap in the face for our young people".
Secretary of State Karen Bradley has refused to intervene. She says it's a devolved matter.
RHI Moy Park
More revelations from the RHI inquiry last week.
Inquiry barrister Donal Lunny questioned witness Tom Forgrave - he is one of Northern Ireland's most prominent poultry farmers.
Mr Lunny put it to Mr Forgrave that the shortfall that developed between Moy Park's fuel subsidy and the price paid by farmers for biomass pellets was being "supplemented" by RHI income
It was revealed that Tom Forgrave has received 拢750k from the RHI scheme by the end of February last year - but he set out the commercial reality of the situation he was in
Now on to last Thursday's evidence - John Mills again faced the inquiry.
