Gerry Adams - 'Upfront' discussions with Orde

Sinn Féin leaders have had their first meeting with Northern Ireland's Chief Constable, Sir Hugh Orde, since the party agreed to back the police service. 

Gerry Adams led a delegation; it was their first time inside PSNI Headquarters in east Belfast. 

Mr Adams said they had an 'upfront' discussion on a range of issues. 

He said the issue of collusion was also discussed and that it was an important first step in the process of delivering a new relationship between the republican community and the police.
