Excellent progress was made on the restoration of devolved Government in Northern Ireland this week after the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) endorsed a Government deal to restore power sharing.
This historic deal has been hailed on all sides; Sinn Féin's Michelle O'Neill said it was a "day of optimism" for Ireland.
Northern Ireland Secretary Chris Heaton-Harris published details of the agreement between the government and the DUP which will "secure Northern Ireland's place in the UK internal market".
