The Stormont Assembly is being recalled for a special meeting to discuss the violence and disorder following an anti-immigration protest in Belfast on Saturday.
Rioters destroyed a number of businesses and damaged others owned by foreign nationals.
The special meeting has been arranged following a proposal from the Alliance Party which was backed by Sinn Féin, the Ulster Unionists, SDLP and Independent Unionist Claire Sugden.
A statement confirming the recall came shortly after Stormont First Minister Michelle O'Neill and deputy First Minister Emma Little-Pengelly issued a joint statement saying there must be a "zero tolerance approach to racism and wanton destruction".
In a letter to all Assembly members, Stormont Speaker Edwin Poots said they were being summoned to meet at noon on Thursday.
The motion for debate states that "this Assembly condemns the criminal damage and targeting of businesses in recent day" and "rejects all forms of Islamophobia, xenophobia and racism".
Earlier, the First and Deputy First Ministers issued a joint statement after taking part in a video call with PSNI Chief Constable Jon Boutcher to discuss the police response to the violence and plans for future protests.
"While people are entitled to take part in peaceful protest there is no justification for racism or for the violence and intimidation that occurred on our streets on Saturday," they said.
"Today we have spoken to the Chief Constable and offered him our full support and we pledged to work to deliver a shared, peaceful and inclusive society.

"There must be a zero tolerance approach to racism and wanton destruction. Nobody should have to live in fear or threat of violence."
Several business owners have said they felt abandoned by police as crowds involved in a protest in the city centre dispersed and attacked shops and restaurants.
Stormont's justice minister, Alliance Party leader Naomi Long, today defended the police response, saying officers had faced a challenging situation and sporadic violence that was difficult to counter.
Meanwhile, four men appeared in court today to face charges linked to the violence.
It comes as the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) said on Monday evening they are aware of social media posts calling for protests across Northern Ireland in the week ahead.
The PSNI said officers will monitor the situation and will be engaging with groups likely to be affected by any protests.
'Disinformation and outright lies'
Stormont's Justice Minister Naomi Long hit out at the radicalisation of people online "through disinformation and outright lies".
Ms Long said if there are any lessons to be learned from the policing operation at the weekend, she has no doubt the PSNI will learn them.
She told the BBC's Good Morning Ulster programme: "We have people in our community this morning who have invested their lives in building businesses, in settling into our community and in providing services to our community, who have now seen their entire livelihoods wiped out in one night of sickening violence, and that has to stop.
"We are already seeing now on social media people making preparations for another round of this this week.
"This cannot continue, we cannot have this kind of Islamaphobia, xenophobia and hatred on our streets.
Policing Board chairman Mukesh Sharma described the violence in Belfast as "deeply depressing and disturbing".
"As a board, we join in the condemnation of all those who engaged in this disorder, and we welcome police commitments to bring all those responsible to justice," he said.
"We all have a real job of work to do to provide reassurance to the community that the violent actions of a few are not representative of our society."
Retail NI chief executive Glyn Roberts said: "These attacks are despicable and should be condemned. Racism has no place in our community and those behind these attacks should be brought to justice.
"Our thoughts are with the owners and staff of these businesses going through such a traumatic experience.
"We hope that the police will learn lessons from last weekend and ensure that these disgraceful, racially motivated attacks on business owners are prevented in future."
