David Hilditch, who recently retired on health grounds, was elected to the first NI Assembly in 1998.

Tributes have been paid to David Hilditch, a veteran member of the Northern Ireland Assembly, who has died at the age of 60.

"In recent times, his illness and treatment were taking an incredible toll on his body, but David would still come to meetings and speak up for the people he represented," Sir Jeffrey said. The DUP's chairman, Lord Morrow, said the former assembly member "leaves a legacy of public service to others which will live long into the future".
