The behaviour of some adults in contributing to the actions of young people during the recent street violence in Northern Ireland amounts to child abuse, NI's children's commissioner has said.
Koulla Yiasouma said those adults were engaged in "criminal exploitation" and "have to be held accountable".
Saturday night was the first without major incident since Good Friday.
The lack of trouble has been linked to the death of the Duke of Edinburgh, although there were disturbances in Belfast and Coleraine on Friday night, hours after his death was announced.
