Robinson to meet Garvaghy residents
Peter Robinson
Nationalist residents involved in the long-running Drumcree dispute in Portadown are due to meet First Minister and DUP leader Peter Robinson today.
The Orange Order has been banned from parading in the Garvaghy Road area of the town for the past decade due to the opposition of local residents.
Mr Robinson is also due to meet Orange representatives today to see if a basis can be found for a resolution to the dispute.
Meanwhile, leaders of the Orange Order in Belfast are also meeting senior police officers today to discuss a spate of attacks on the order's main hall in the city centre.
The annual Orange parade in Belfast takes off from the building at Carlisle Circus on Monday.
Last night, it was paint-bombed for the third time in six days.
