She said: "There are other ongoing investigative processes into RHI and it was the correct decision by the Public Accounts Committee to adjourn its public session.

"Sinn Féin will require the highest standards of transparency and scrutiny to be achieved as a result of these processes. Nothing less than that is acceptable."
