P511 CEEFAX 1 511 Thu 02 Dec 19:28/22HISTORIC POWER HANDOVER TO N IRELAND Power has officially been handed over from London to Northern Ireland's new multi-party executive at Stormont. The Northern Ireland Assembly has taken over new powers from MPs in Westminster — including control of the school system, transport and the health service.
