Junior doctors in Northern Ireland have said they will stage further strike action after pay talks with the Department of Health broke down.

Two 48-hour walk outs will take place from 07:00 GMT on Wednesday 22 May to Friday 24 May and from Thursday 6 June to Saturday 8 June.

Northern Ireland Junior Doctor Committee (NIJDC) chair Dr Fiona Griffin said "regrettably" junior doctors had been left with "no choice but to escalate" strike action.
