NI abortion: Givan 'will resist' government order to Stormont
First Minister Paul Givan says he will resist the UK's government order forcing Stormont to commission abortion services in Northern Ireland.
He says he is taking legal advice and is prepared to go to court to block the move.
Last week Northern Ireland Secretary Brandon Lewis directed Stormont to set up full abortion services by no later than next March.
