US Attorney General faces contempt of Congress vote

To the United States where the House Judiciary Committee is voting on whether to cite the US Attorney General William Barr for contempt of Congress. The vote comes after Mr Barr refused to hand over an unredacted version of the Mueller report to the committe, that's the report into Russian interfence in the 2016 presidential election. Mr Barr has missed two subpoena deadlines to hand over the material - which, he says, contains no evidence of a conspiracy between Russia and President Donald Trump's election campaign. Mr Trump has hit back by asserting executive privilege over the report, shielding it from public view. Our correspondent in Washington is Kevin McAleese.
