SDLP joins call for questions over Sinn Féin references over Michael McMonagle .

First Minister Michelle O'Neill should be questioned in assembly over references.

Charity says senior party official knew references given by former colleagues did not raise concerns about his suitability for employment.

In September , Mc Monagle admitted a series of sex offences including attempting to incite a child to engage in sexual activity.

Sinn Féin has been criticised for not alerting charity to McMonagle 's police investigation.

DUP leader Gavin Robinson called for questions in the Assembly on Saturday .

TUV leader Jim Allister said the party had dug themselves into an "indefensible position" Alliance leader Naomi Long said there are still questions to be answered.
