Councillors at Belfast City Hall have voted to introduce the new Irish language policy

Unionist councillors have not signed a letter drafted by group leaders condemning loyalist threats to burn facilities carrying Irish language branding following a landmark council vote on Irish language policy.

Last week, Belfast City Council opted to introduce the new policy, which will see wider use of the language across the city, including a bilingual logo being used on council uniforms and vehicles.
