The North's Parades Commission has rerouted a controversial Orange Order parade due to take place in west Belfast on Saturday. The commission ruled that the Whiterock march is to be kept further away than before from the peace-line interface.

Two feeder parades will not be allowed to pass the Ardoyne shops in north Belfast or to proceed beyond the junction of Woodvale Gardens and Twaddell Avenue. A protest march by the nationalist Springfield Road Action Group also faces restrictions.
