Simon Harris has been elected Taoiseach by the Irish Parliament.  He was officially installed in the role in a ceremony with the Irish President Michael D Higgins on Tuesday afternoon. Mr Harris takes over from Leo Varadkar who stood down from the role on Monday night.

The 37-year-old becomes the youngest ever Taoiseach.  He told the Dail, it was special for him and said he looked forward to working with the Northern Ireland Executive.

It was a week of political earthquakes, money for education and some relief for those residents of a stricken apartment block. 
Those were just a sample of the stories making the news in Northern Ireland this week, discussed by Carol Jordan and Jordan Moates in this week's UTV Podcast.
The Executive released funding for the Strule shared education campus this week - with the First Minister describing it as "world leading".
Jordan Moates has been reporting on the matter for years - and was at it when it was an Army barracks. He discusses the minefield it has become with costs spiralling and the composition of the campus which is to host 4,000 pupils, when it is built. 
In the Republic, Leo Varadkar's sudden resignation as Fine Gael leader and taoiseach caused ripples across the world. He has said there is "no scandal" behind his sudden departure. 
Simon Harris looks set to be crowned his replacement - and with it become Ireland's youngest taoiseach.  
It was also a week where pressure grew on the Stormont administration to get help and support to the Victoria Square apartments residents. Rates bills have been paused, as too has legal action against those who have not been paying rates. The residents were forced from their homes in 2019 after serious defects were found in the build. 
And for this week's View From Stormont, Jordan looked at the debate around assisted dying legislation. This came after the broadcaster Esther Rantzen launched a campaign for new laws and in the Republic a special oireachtas joint committee called for the introduction of legislation. 
And looking ahead, Northern Ireland's MLAs head off on their Easter break, Carol and Jordan look at what they have achieved in their first few short weeks and the challenges their are facing. 
As ever you can watch our Vodcast on ITVX and on our social channels and also as a podcast.

Former IRA man and author Richard O'Rawe on the importance of Stakeknife to authorities.

America turned green for St Patrick's - and with it was the annual exodus of political figures to Washington for the celebrations. That was the main story for this week and discussed in this week's UTV Vodcast.
Carol Jordan and Jordan Moates discussed how it was all smiles for the new ministers and a buzz of positivity on their various engagements. But the trip, as Jordan notes, was a bit of a break from normal business and on their return there are many challenges facing the reformed Executive.

Carol and Jordan also discuss the horrific case of Roy Reynolds' murder and the frustration of those caught up in the infected blood scandal.

And we revisit the tale of the accidental therapy dog who may need to find a new home.
