Cabinet to discuss IMC report on Belfast bank robbery
The Cabinet is due to discuss the Independent Monitoring Commission's report on the Belfast bank robbery at its weekly meeting later today.
The report is believed to support the PSNI's assertion that the Provisional IRA was responsible for the £26.5m (€38m) heist at Northern Bank headquarters, despite the organisation's denials of involvement.
It is also believed to recommend financial sanctions against Sinn Féin Assembly members as punishment for the IRA's complicity.
The report is expected to be made public in the coming days.
The Belfast robbery has led to yet another deadlock in the peace process, with unionist politicians, backed by the Irish and British governments, now demanding that all IRA activity end before any further progress is made.
