Gordon Lyons: DUP minister defends meeting group linked to paramilitaries

He was also questioned by SDLP MLA Daniel McCrossan about meeting the LCC ahead of other groups.

Lyons denied that he prioritised meeting the LLC ahead of other organisations who had requested talks but were turned away.

He said he had received a total of 763 invitations from groups to attend events and meetings since taking up office and he had accepted 395 of those.

The minister also revealed he plans to meet the GAA next Thursday to discuss the redevelopment of Casement park in Belfast.

Earlier this month, DUP MLA and Education Minister Paul Givan faced criticism for meeting with the LCC, having declined 205 meetings with other groups and organisations.
