The Orange Order has again been barred from parading along a contentious stretch of road in north Belfast.
Three lodges and two bands wanted to walk along a stretch of the Crumlin Road that separates unionist and nationalist communities on Saturday.
They wanted to complete a parade that was restricted on 12 July last year.
Several nights of rioting took place after that march was stopped, with scores of officers injured.
The trouble followed a controversial ruling by the Parades Commission, banning the parade from marching past an interface at Ardoyne on their way home from traditional Twelfth of July commemorations.
Loyalists have maintained a continuous presence at a protest camp at the Woodvale/Ardoyne interface at Twaddell Avenue since last July.
'12th completion parade' turned down
