Update 1.20pm: The north’s deputy first minister says he never suspected any wrongdoing in the sale of Project Eagle – but he did think there were a series of irregularities.

Martin McGuinness – who’s appearing before the Public Accounts Committee – says the only involvement he had was a conference call in January 2014 when Michael Noonan informed him and Peter Robinson that the sale of NAMA’s northern loanbook was to happen.

He’s told the committee that he learned through the media of a number of other meetings in 2013 and 2014 involving the former first minister, DUP ministers and others.

Mr McGuinness says throughout the process he never suspected any wrongdoing.

Meanwhile, a fresh invitation from the Public Accounts Committee to appear before it has been sent to Peter Robinson.

It is after the former first minister said he never received an invite sent last month.

Committee chair Seán Fleming says the original invite was sent to DUP offices for onward transmission but a new invite has now been sent to his home address by courier.
