THE DUP have revealed the five ministers that will be appointed to the Executive.
In a post on Twitter, DUP leader Arlene Foster revealed that MLAs Paul Givan, Alastair Ross, Simon Hamilton, Peter Weir and Michelle McIlveen will be appointed as ministers.
One of the five ministers will be a junior minister, as the DUP will have four executive seats to Sinn Féin's three following the appointment of Independent Unionist Claire Sugden as Justice Minister.
