After 100 days of talks and just two days before Christmas, Sinn Féin, the DUP, the Ulster Unionists and the SDLP reached an agreement at Stormont that saved devolved government in Belfast from collapse.
The reform of the welfare system in Northern Ireland was the major stumbling block of the marathon talks that at one stage directly involved the British and Irish governments.
