The Police Service of Northern Ireland's (PSNI) chief constable is being urged to consider his position as he faces high-level questions over two serious data breaches.

Simon Byrne is at an emergency meeting of the Northern Ireland Policing Board after cutting short a family holiday.

Earlier this week, the PSNI declared a "critical incident" after releasing information including the surnames, initials, ranks or grades, work locations and departments of all PSNI staff as part of a Freedom of Information (FoI) request.
