Almost all of the objectives in Northern Ireland's environmental plan are largely off track, the UK's environment watchdog has warned.

It found good progress had been made towards just two of the 38 targets - air quality and climate change mitigation, mixed progress towards six, limited progress towards 27 and three others could not be assessed.

The watchdog said the current pace and scale of action would not deliver the change that was needed for the plan to be effective.
