A vote of no confidence in Northern Ireland's First Minister, Arlene Foster, has been defeated in the assembly.

Stormont's political institutions are under threat of a meltdown in a row over a botched heating scheme.
Members of the assembly walked out of the chamber twice on Monday morning.
However, Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness said Sinn Féin  - partners in government with the DUP - would not be pulling the plug on Stormont.
In an interview with the BBC, he said: "We are dealing with a shambles and there is an urgent need to restore credibility in the institutions.
"It's very, very important that the executive office finds a way forward through the quite clear difficulties," he said.
He said his party will put forward a motion in the assembly calling for an investigation into the "debacle" and urge the first minister to step aside during an investigation into the scheme.
Earlier, Mrs Foster said she would resist her opponents' "fevered quest" to build her "political gallows".
She exclaimed "trial by television" as she faced a no-confidence vote over the botched Renewable Heat Incentive Scheme (RHI) that could cost taxpayers £400m.
In an interview with the BBC's Stephen Nolan on Thursday, Jonathan Bell, a former enterprise minister, broke ranks with his DUP colleagues and made a number of sensational claims about how the controversial scheme was handled.
The RHI was set up by the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Investment (Deti) under the stewardship of Mrs Foster in 2012 to encourage businesses and other non-domestic users to move from using fossil fuels to renewable heating systems.
But flaws in setting the scheme's subsidy rate left it open to abuse as claimants could earn more cash the more fuel they burned.
The scheme was finally halted early this year, by which time its overall cost had reached £1.18bn.
About £20m a year for the next two decades could be taken from the Northern Ireland budget to cover the overspend.
"They can't gang up and kick out the elected leader of unionism," Mrs Foster told the Northern Ireland Assembly.
"I am here and I will be staying here," she said. "I have acted with the highest level of integrity."
She also treated her political opponents in the SDLP, Ulster Unionists, Alliance and TUV, to a razor-sharp tongue lashing. The gloves were off.
She said she was "glad" that Colum Eastwood, SDLP, and Mike Nesbitt, UUP, "aren't very good" at opposition.
The Alliance Party had, in the past, acted in a more "considered and responsible way", she said, "but that was under a different leader".
"No doubt, at some point, we will hear today this decision is related to the flags protest," she said.
Mrs Foster said the motion to bring her down was "doomed" and that this was a "coup d'état more worthy of a Carry On Film".
While 39 assembly members voted for the no-confidence motion and 36 against, it was still defeated because Assembly votes require a majority of unionists and nationalists to back any motion.
Sinn Fein members were not present in the chamber for the vote.
Earlier, a series of stormy arguments and walk-outs threatened to lurch Northern Ireland into a fresh constitutional crisis.
The row that erupted in the assembly on Monday was over Mrs Foster's decision to "fly solo" .
She prepared to make a ministerial statement without the support of the Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness, Sinn Féin, with whom she shares the joint office.
Analysis - BBC News NI political correspondent Enda McClafferty
When it works, it shows politics in Northern Ireland is moving in the right direction but when it goes wrong it reopens old wounds and leaves the institutions hanging by a thread.
Joint ministerial authority means Arlene Foster and Martin McGuinness have equal power and cannot work in isolation. They have no choice.
That's why Arlene Foster's decision to make a statement without the support of her partner in office today has plunged Stormont into a fresh crisis.
Joint office is the bond which holds Stormont together, it now appears to be melting fast in this heating scandal.
The other parties walked out of the chamber and stormed to the press microphones to voice their anger.
Mr McGuinness made it clear that Mrs Foster did not speak for him or with him. He said she would be acting without his approval or authority.
Earlier, he had warned that a DUP-established inquiry into the so-called "cash for ash" affair would have no credibility.
He also said that there would be grave consequences if the DUP took a unilateral approach and Mrs Foster made a ministerial statement without his support.
Speaker Robin Newton, DUP, found himself at the eye of the storm, facing a barrage from politicians over the right of Mrs Foster to make the statement without the support of her deputy first minister.
But he went ahead and called on Mrs Foster to speak.
She ended up preaching to the converted as nearly all of the MLAs from the other parties left the chamber again.
Her DUP colleagues heard her say that not introducing cost-control measures in a botched heating scheme was the "greatest political regret of my life".
It was not clear whether she was speaking in her capacity as first minister or whether it was personal.
The DUP accused the other parties of "running away" when they left the chamber and Mrs Foster asked: "Where are they? The people of Northern Ireland deserve better than this."
The other parties rolled their eyes.
Eamonn McCann, People Before Profit, said there was "no shortage of clowns but no ring master" at Stormont.
"We are now in La La land and limbo land," he said.
TUV leader Jim Allister said: "I know it's pantomime season but what has happened today is beyond farce."


A teenager arrested over a malicious tweet sent to Team GB diver Tom Daley has been issued with a warning.

Dorset Police said the 17-year-old boy was held at a guest house in the Weymouth area on suspicion of malicious communications and later bailed.
After coming fourth in the men's synchronised 10m platform diving event on Monday, Daley, 18, from Plymouth received a message on Twitter.
It told him he had let down his father Rob, who died in 2011 from cancer.
Police said the teenager was given a harassment warning before being bailed pending an investigation into other communications on his Twitter account.
Shortly after missing out on a medal on Monday, Daley retweeted the message from the boy which said: "You let your dad down i hope you know that."
He then responded to the tweet by posting: "After giving it my all...you get idiot's sending me this..."
The teenager later posted a tweet apologising for the comment.
He said: "I'm sorry mate i just wanted you to win cause its the olympics I'm just annoyed we didn't win I'm sorry tom accept my apology."
He later added: "please i don't want to be hated I'm just sorry you didn't win i was rooting for you pal to do britain all proud just so upset."
After Daley sent the tweet on to his followers, he received a flood of supportive messages.
Rob Daley, who was instrumental in helping his son become one of the world's top divers, was diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2006.
He had 80% of a fist-sized tumour removed that year and had been in remission until a routine health check in 2010 discovered a tumour had returned.
Speaking before the Olympics, Daley said his father had given him the inspiration to compete in the Games.
He told the BBC: "I'm doing it for myself and my dad. It was both our dreams from a very young age.
"I always wanted to do it and Dad was so supportive of everything."


All of the current MPs in Wales will defend their seats in the snap general election, it has emerged.

Wales has 40 MPs - 25 from Labour, 11 Welsh Conservative, three Plaid Cymru and one Welsh Liberal Democrat.
None of them are expected to stand aside ahead of the early general election.
MPs overwhelmingly voted to trigger an early election on Wednesday. The poll will take place on 8 June.
Parliament is set to be dissolved on 3 May, at which point the 40 MPs will become candidates.


Nicola Sturgeon has promised to review and reform gender recognition law for transgender people as part of a series of commitments on LGBTI equality.

The SNP leader unveiled the pledge ahead of a hustings event with the other main party leaders in Edinburgh.
Labour, the Conservatives, Lib Dems and Scottish Greens also back greater rights and support for LGBTI people.
Campaigners welcomed the plans, which they said could allow young people to legally change their gender.
They also said it could mean the law would recognise that some people have a non-binary gender and are neither men nor women.
Scottish Labour said its manifesto would pledge to remove the psychiatric diagnosis requirement from legal gender recognition.
The Scottish Conservatives, Scottish Liberal Democrats and Scottish Greens have called for teachers to be better equipped to deal with LGBTI issues.
Scotland was last year rated the best country in Europe in terms of legal equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex people.
But Ms Sturgeon said more work still needed to be done, and the SNP would look to create "refreshed, age-appropriate strategies and resources" for children to promote tolerance and respect, and prevent prejudice about healthy relationships if it wins the election on 5 May.
Under her plans, all new guidance and promoted teachers would also undertake training on equality so they could tackle prejudice-based bullying in schools.
Ms Sturgeon said young people should be supported to make informed choices about their gender and sexual identity.
In addition, she said an SNP government would work towards every professional working with children being trained on equality and tackling prejudice-based bullying.
And it would aim for all police officers to receive appropriate training on the investigation of hate crime.
Ms Sturgeon said she was proud that Scotland had made "significant progress" on LGBTI equality in recent years, with the country having legalised gay marriage in February 2014.
She added: "Tolerance, respect, inclusion - these are attitudes and principles we want to encourage and foster in a modern, fairer Scotland.
"Enabling young people to make informed choices about their gender and sexual identity is about supporting them to be themselves so that they might fulfil their potential.
"I am hopeful that in the next Scottish Parliament we can build as much consensus on LGBTI issues as we did in this session - and take another leap forward for equality."
James Morton, manager of the Scottish Transgender Alliance, welcomed the pledges, which he said were in line with international best practice.
He added: "That would mean enabling people to change the gender on their birth certificate without intrusive medical diagnosis, recognising trans people as the experts on their own identities.
"It would allow young people to legally change their gender, with parents' support if under 16.
"It would also mean the law recognising that some people have a non-binary gender, that is they are neither men nor women."
But the Free Church of Scotland moderator, Rev David Robertson, warned against "destroying the traditional idea of gender".
He added: "We believe that this will result in confusion and brokenness amongst our children rather than fulfilled potential."
Scottish Labour leader Kezia Dugdale said her party's manifesto would commit to legislating to remove the psychiatric diagnosis requirement from legal gender recognition.
She also pledged to reduce to 16 the age at which people can get legal recognition of the gender they live as, and ensure legal protection for people who do not identify as either men or women.
On the education proposals, she added: "We've got to give teachers the confidence to teach LGBT issues whether that's in social education or elsewhere in the curriculum."
Scottish Conservative leader Ruth Davidson said: "I want to get to a stage where absolutely every teacher in every school in Scotland feels equipped to be able to deal with these issues because every child needs to be able to trust the people in their schools."
She called for relationship, sexual health and parenthood education to be updated much more often "to be able to keep up with the kind of evolving relationship that young people have with sexuality and gender and the way in which it is expressed in their schools."
Scottish Liberal Democrat leader Willie Rennie said: "I think we should be making more progress on education. I don't think we should just be training a small number of teachers I think we should be training all teachers.
"We should be getting gender recognition right, we need to remove the archaic system that we have just now. People should have the right to choose for themselves."
Scottish Greens co-convener Patrick Harvie highlighted the "unspoken issue" of faith schools.
He said: "If we're talking about all teachers then we're also talking about all schools.
"And although there is good and bad practice on both sides of the denominational divide, we still aren't acknowledging that a great many young people are being educated in an ethos which says a lot of us in this room are   and believe it or not they use this phrase - inherently morally defective."


A man has been charged with inciting racial hatred ahead of a proposed demonstration in an area of London with a large Jewish population.

Joshua Bonehill, of Hudson Road, Yeovil, was arrested in Somerset on Thursday in an operation with Avon and Somerset Police, the Met said.
It came as part of an operation ahead of a planned march in the Golders Green area of the capital on 4 July.
Mr Bonehill, 22, is due at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Monday.
In a statement, the Metropolitan Police said: "Officers continue to assess all information and intelligence available in relation to the proposed demonstration and speak with the organisers to ensure an appropriate policing response is in place.
"We are aware of concerns in the local community about the negative impact this proposed demonstration may have on them.
"We are working with residents to ensure that people can exercise their rights in a way that is lawful, while minimising this impact."


Apple is to start making iPhones in the southern Indian state of Karnataka, the state's government has said.

It said it welcomed a proposal from the tech giant to begin initial manufacturing operations in the state, whose capital is the tech hub Bangalore.
Apple has 2% of India's mobile phone market, well behind rival Samsung.
However, although Apple said this week it is keen to "invest significantly" in India, it has not confirmed any plans.
Despite the low percentage of sales, Apple has almost half of the market for premium phones, which start at around $450 an item, and its sales are growing fast.
Apple has held a series of meetings with government representatives at both state and national level and is understood to be pressing for concessions before going ahead with such a move.
Priyank Kharge, minister of  information technology and biotechnology in Karnataka, told the AFP news agency: "We have an understanding with Apple and we expect them to start manufacturing in Karnataka by the end of April."
Reports said the plant is being set up by Taiwanese manufacturing company Wistron Corp.
Apple's biggest manufacturing partner is Taiwanese giant Foxconn, which runs the biggest iPhone factory in the world in China.
Apple is currently unable to set up its own branded stores in India, which has a raft of rules to curb the activities of foreign companies.
For it to be able to sell direct to customers in India, Apple would have to source 30% of the components of its products locally.
Earlier this week, Apple reported its first rise in sales in nine months after strong Christmas sales of the iPhone 7.
The firm had suffered three quarters in a row of falling revenues as mounting competition, particularly from Chinese rivals, hit sales of the iPhone.


A third health board in Scotland has voted to stop sending patients to the country's only homeopathic hospital.

NHS Lanarkshire took the decision despite the results of a consultation which showed a majority of patients questioned backed the service.
More than 200 people each year in Lanarkshire are referred to the Centre for Integrative Care, formerly Glasgow Homoeopathic Hospital.
NHS Lothian and NHS Highland previously voted to stop patient referrals.
Homeopathy involves treating people with highly diluted substances with the aim of triggering the body's own healing mechanisms.
Medical scientists have said many trials have shown it is no better than a placebo.
In a report that went before NHS Lanarkshire, officials set out the findings of a survey of 153 patients, who attended clinics in the health board area.
On a 70% response rate, 88% said that, overall, the treatment made them feel better than before.
The health board voted, however, to cease new referrals from 31 March 2015 "on the basis of the lack of clinical effectiveness evidence for homoeopathy".
NHS Lanarkshire said patients currently being treated at the homeopathic hospital would continue until their course was completed.


A quarterback for the New York Jets will not be able to play for at least six weeks after a team-mate "sucker-punched" him and broke his jaw.

Geno Smith and linebacker Ikemefuna Enemkpali got into an altercation inside the locker room on Tuesday, Jets Coach Todd Bowles said.
"It had nothing to do with football," Bowles said of the fight. "It was something very childish."
Enemkpali, a relative newcomer, lost his job after landing the punch.
"You don't walk up to another man and punch him in the face," Bowles said.
The team was training for the upcoming American football season, which begins later this month. Smith is expected to miss several games.
Smith, who was competing to become the team's starting quarterback, will need surgery to fix his jaw.
With Smith sidelined, the team's other quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick is likely to assume the starting role.
Later on Tuesday, Smith posted a closed-mouthed photo on Instagram with the caption "I'll be back".


Police in Austria say three Syrian children and their families who were rescued from a van containing 26 migrants have disappeared from the hospital where they were being treated.

The children were taken to hospital in the town of Braunau am Inn on Friday suffering from severe dehydration.
Their discovery came a day after police found 71 bodies, thought to be people fleeing Syria, in a lorry in Austria.
Meanwhile the EU has announced urgent talks on the escalating migrant crisis.
Luxembourg, which holds the rotating EU presidency, said interior ministers would hold an extraordinary meeting on 14 September, saying the situation had "taken unprecedented proportions".
A record number of 107,500 migrants reached the EU's borders last month. At least 2,500 have died since January, most of them drowning in the Mediterranean. Some of them pay large sums of money to people smugglers.
Austrian police said they stopped the minivan in Braunau, which sits on the country's border with Germany, on Friday and arrested its Romanian driver.
The children - two girls and a boy aged between one and five years old - were said to have been crammed in the back along with other migrants from Syria, Afghanistan and Bangladesh.
Police said they were critically ill and almost unconscious when they were found.
The BBC's Bethany Bell in Braunau says they and their families disappeared from the hospital at some point on Saturday.
Authorities believe they may have tried to cross the border into Germany, rather than face deportation back to Hungary.
Separately on Sunday, Hungarian police said they had arrested a fifth man over the deaths of the 71 people who were found in the abandoned lorry in Austria last Thursday.
The man is the fourth Bulgarian to be held over the find near the Hungarian border. The other man is Afghan. Authorities believe the men are low-level members of a human trafficking gang.
Officials said the 59 men, eight women and four children had probably died of suffocation two days earlier.

Next month's emergency meeting was announced after Germany, France and the UK called for "concrete steps" to resolve the issue.
They want migrants to be fingerprinted and registered when they arrive in Italy or Greece. They also said the EU should establish a list of "safe countries of origin" that would allow immediate repatriation of some migrants.
The call came after French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius criticised Eastern European countries for refusing to take in refugees.
"When I see a certain number of European countries, particularly in the east, who do not accept quotas [of migrants], I find it scandalous," he told French radio station Europe 1 (in French).
He pointed specifically to Hungary's 175km (108 mile) razor-wire barrier along its border with Serbia, saying it "did not respect Europe's common values".
Hungary says it plans to replace the temporary barrier, which was completed on Saturday, with a 4m-high (13ft) fence to "provide a defence against illegal border-crossers".
So far this month more than 40,000 asylum seekers, the majority of them Syrian, have arrived in Hungary via the Balkans.
On Sunday, Pope Francis led prayers in St Peter's Square for migrants who die "on their terrible journeys" and urged co-operation "to impede these crimes, which offend the entire human family".

Hibernian moved top of the Championship despite a draw with Raith Rovers extending their winless run to five matches in all competitions.

Hibs were reduced to ten men in the first-half, Marvin Bartley seeing red after kicking out at Bobby Barr.
Chances were a rarity in a niggly affair that featured six yellow cards in addition to Bartley's red.
Despite dropping points yet again, Hibs go top after Queen of the South's thrashing by Morton.
These sides met seven times last season and it appeared that a few feuds had carried over as the first-half was punctuated by niggling challenges and numerous appeals from both sides to referee Steven Finnie.
Chances were sparse. Jean-Yves M'voto reacted quickly in the box to deny Grant Holt and Paul Hanlon hit the bar with a diving header from the resultant corner.
The talking point of the half came after 38 minutes when Hibs were clearing their lines, Raith conceded a free-kick but Bartley became involved with Barr and kicked out at the Raith player in front of the referee who showed no hesitation in showing a straight red card - Hibs third red in their last four league matches.
The half ended with more cards than serious goal chances - Holt, McManus and Thompson all saw in yellow in addition to Bartley's red.
Neil Lennon re-jigged the Hibs side after the red card, with an emphasis on the midfielders getting forward quickly to support Holt.
Ross Callachan was booked for simulation as he clearly dived seeking a penalty decision as Raith grew frustrated in trying to make their numerical superiority count.
Hibs were not prepared to sit back and play for a point. More than once they sent low crosses across the box but could not find the finishing touch.
An afternoon that neither manager will view with great fondness, the sense of frustration on the park bled over to the technical area with Gary Locke hoping for more from his side, while Lennon earned a quiet word from referee Finnie.
It was a strong performance from Hibs after going down to 10 men and they were not prepared to sit back and play for a point. The Easter Road side were also frustrated by a two penalty claims that the referee  waved away.
Raith Rovers manager Gary Locke: "There were a lot of tackles going and a lot of stop-start play, it is hard to get momentum in a game when there are so many fouls.
"The sending-off changed the game and I thought Hibs sat back but were dangerous on the break.
"If we'd just shown a wee bit composure in the final third I thought we could have caused Hibs a lot of problems, which I thought we did early in the game but in the second-half our quality wasn't what it should be."
Hibernian manager Neil Lennon: "The referee's performance was frustrating but my team were outstanding. That is the best we have played and was totally the opposite to where we were last week.
"We were on the front foot second-half and our fitness levels were fantastic. It was frustrating not to win the game but we've gone top of the league and that is a big boost for us.
"I'm pretty sure once the referee looks at the red card he will realise he's made a mistake.
"What I saw was Marvin (Bartley) was fouled then a stramash and Marvin gets a red card. Marvin told me it was for retaliation and referee said he stood on the kid's groin.
"I've looked at it from three or four different angles and it was a trip and was nowhere near his groin. I will speak to the referee about it and both the penalties that we were denied."

Malky Mackay has been sacked as Cardiff City manager by the club's board of directors.

Media playback is not supported on this device
Billionaire Malaysian owner Vincent Tan said the dismissal was "regretfully" necessary to be fair to the club and its fans.
"It has been an unbelievable few weeks.
"First of all you had the statement by Simon Lim (Cardiff's chief executive), quoting Vincent Tan being openly critical of Malky Mackay.
"I think Vincent Tan thought the Southampton defeat was the last straw.
"The search has started for a new manager and I would suggest Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, managing in Norway the moment, would be a pretty firm favourite for the job."
In a statement, Tan said: "Far too much dirty linen has been exposed to the public gaze but, I stress, not by me."
The move comes a day after a 3-0 home defeat by Southampton left Cardiff only one point above the relegation zone.
Mackay said he could look back at his time at Cardiff with "immense pride".
"I leave with my head held high having gained a level of experience that, upon reflection, I suspect would have been difficult to find anywhere else in British football," he said in a statement issued on his behalf by the League Managers' Association.
"The foundations laid at Cardiff City FC will provide a solid platform for my successor. And for the sake of the club, I hope that all of the progress that has been made so far will not be impaired in any way by today's enforced changes."
Mackay's removal follows a public row with Tan, who wrote to to the manager on 16 December asking him to resign or be sacked.
Tan also accused Mackay of overspending in the transfer market and announced the manager would have nothing to spend in the January window.
The 41-year-old Scotsman refused to resign, and subsequently led the team in Premier League matches against Liverpool and Southampton before his dismissal.
Mackay's assistant David Kerslake is expected to be in charge for the home match against Sunderland on Saturday.
Mackay, who is the sixth Premier League boss to lose his job this season, had been in charge at Cardiff for two-and-a-half years after taking over from Dave Jones in June 2011.

He guided the club back to the top flight of English football after a 52-year absence when they won the Championship in April.
Tan claimed in a statement that Mackay's dismissal was necessary for the good of the club.
"There has been a good deal of publicity generated by, and about, Mr Malky Mackay for the last few months," it read.
"I have deliberately not responded to this, hoping that the club can be judged on its football rather than personalised arguments about who said what to whom.
"I have, however, regretfully concluded that it is no longer fair to the club, its players, its fans and the public more generally for this uncomfortable state of affairs to continue.
"Cardiff City Football Club means far too much to us all for it to be distracted by this."

The first signs of a problem between the owner and the manager emerged in October 2013 when the club's director of recruitment Iain Moody was removed from his post.
Moody, a long-term friend and colleague of Mackay who worked with him at Watford, was replaced by 23-year-old Kazakh Alisher Apsalamov, a friend of Tan's son.
Moody played a major role in the recruitment of summer signings Gary Medel and Steven Caulker and the decision to remove him upset Mackay, who described his colleague as "a class act".
No official reason was given for Moody's departure, but it emerged in December that Tan felt he was responsible for an alleged overspend of £15m on the club's transfer budget.
Played: 125 games
Won: 54
Drawn: 37
Lost: 34
Success rate: 43%
Tan claimed the club had spent £50m on transfers following their promotion to the Premier League after being given a budget of £35m.
Moody and Mackay both denied there had been an overspend.
The latest row was sparked by Mackay's comments after Cardiff's 1-0 win over West Brom on 14 December that he would like to recruit three players in January.
The comments prompted a strident response from Tan, with many observers surprised that Mackay was still in charge for the game at Anfield on 21 December.


Falkirk's hopes of securing runners-up spot in the Scottish Championship suffered a blow after conceding a last-gasp equaliser to Dumbarton.

Mark Docherty was sent off for blocking John Baird's attempt with his hand and the striker scored from the spot.
Danny Rogers produced a smart save to deny Christian Nade and Kevin Cawley put the rebound just wide.
However, Nade was brought down by Rogers and Garry Fleming converted the second spot-kick of the match.


It was destroyed almost 500 years ago but for the first time the remaining fragments of Robert the Bruce's ornate tomb are to be displayed together.

After the monument was destroyed during the Reformation, relics found their way into various collections around the country.
One of them was that of Sir Walter Scott and from Saturday his Borders home will host the unique collection.
It will be accompanied by a 3D digital image of the warrior king's grave.
The computer-generated picture will form part of the exhibition, titled The Lost Tomb of Robert the Bruce, at Abbotsford, near Melrose.
It has been created using the original artefacts and the latest archaeological research by various Scottish heritage bodies.
Kirsty Archer-Thompson, heritage and engagement manger for the Abbotsford Trust said: "It is fitting that Sir Walter Scott, the man who ignited such passion for Scottish history, acquired a piece of this archaeological jigsaw puzzle.
"Everyone involved in the project is thrilled that the public can see this precious collection of remaining fragments back together again."
Following his death in 1329, Bruce was buried at Dunfermline Abbey but the grave was destroyed in 1560 when the church was ransacked by Reformers.
During the early 19th century what were believed to be Bruce's remains were discovered with fragments of carved and gilded marble from the vanished tomb.
These relics subsequently found their way into museum collections in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Dunfermline.
At least one fragment fell into the hands of Sir Walter Scott.
Historians believe he may have acquired it the same time that he acquired entrance hall panelling from Dunfermline Abbey, together with a cast of Bruce's skull.
The exhibition runs until 30 November.


The Great Barrier Reef is worth A$56bn (Â£33bn; $42bn) and is critical to supporting economic activity in Australia, according to a new report.

Deloitte Access Economics calculated the figure on the reef's total "economic, social and icon value".
It found the reef contributes A$6.4bn to Australia's economy and supports 64,000 jobs.
The report said more should be done to protect the reef, which has been hit by recent mass coral bleaching events.
The study was commissioned by the Great Barrier Reef Foundation, a charity dedicated to protecting the World Heritage-listed icon.
"This report sends a clear message that the Great Barrier Reef - as an ecosystem, as an economic driver, as a global treasure - is too big to fail," said foundation director Steve Sargent.
"As the largest living structure on earth and one of the world's most complex and diverse natural ecosystems, the Great Barrier Reef is justifiably considered priceless and irreplaceable."
Using economic modelling, the authors calculated the reef is worth A$29bn to tourism and A$3.2bn to recreational visitors such as divers.
It is also worth A$23.8bn in "indirect" or brand value - meaning Australians who have not visited the reef but value knowing it exists.
The data was based on a six-month study of scientific and economic sources, and a new survey of more than 1,500 people from 11 countries.
Mr Sargent said the total value was 12 times greater than the Sydney Opera House.
Lead author John O'Mahony said the results confirmed the reef had "incredible value" in terms of biodiversity, creating jobs, and reputation internationally.
Mass coral bleaching in consecutive years damaged two-thirds of the reef, according to surveys in April.


A councillor was apparently lost for words after her partner popped the question at a council meeting.

Martin Trollope-Bellew proposed to fellow Conservative Rosemary Woolley during his final speech as authority chairman.
Ms Woolley said she was "caught unawares" and did not answer straight away but said yes after a few minutes' hesitation.
The couple have been together for more than 12 years.
More on this and other Lincolnshire stories
Mr Trollope-Bellew said he thought the council chamber was "an appropriate time and place to do it."
His bride-to-be said it "was definitely a shock" and joked that she waited to answer so not to appear too keen.
"I did think he ought to wait before I answered," she added.


Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel was fastest in second practice at the Bahrain Grand Prix with the Mercedes and Red Bull teams close behind.

The German was only 0.041 seconds quicker than Mercedes driver Valtteri Bottas.
Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo was third with Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen and Lewis Hamilton's Mercedes behind him.
We have hopefully closed that gap a little bit
Vettel's session was interrupted when his car shut down out on the track as he was began his race-simulation run.
But after managing to crawl back to the pits, Ferrari fixed the car and he was able to complete his work.
The four-time world champion said: "It was not the best day for us, we still need to improve the car. The car feels good. On one lap it was OK. Long run we might be quite a bit behind, but I am sure we can improve for tomorrow."
It was the second technical problem for Ferrari, after Raikkonen broke down with a turbo overheating problem in the first session. The Finn needed a new internal combustion engine to be fitted as well ahead of the second session.
Hamilton's true pace was not seen - he had a messy session and set his lap when his tyres were older than his rivals'.
Hamilton aborted his first lap, was blocked by Renault's Nico Hulkenberg on the next and finally nailed a time on his third attempt, when the edge would have gone from the rubber.
He and Vettel are tied on points at the top of the championship after a win and a second place apiece in the first two races of the season in Australia and China.
The pattern of the season so far in qualifying has been Hamilton on pole by a small margin, with Vettel and Bottas second and third separated by thousandths of a second.
Conditions are very different in Bahrain compared to Melbourne and Shanghai and Hamilton is concerned that Ferrari will be faster in the desert as a result of what he expects to be their lighter demands on the tyres.
On the race-simulation runs, Hamilton appeared to have a small advantage over the other drivers on the super-soft tyres and the soft tyres - other than two very quick laps by Raikkonen on the softs right at the end of the session.
But Hamilton said he had been told Ferrari were quicker than Mercedes in race pace.
"I didn't get to finish my lap. I would hope I would be in amongst [the top three if I had]," he said.
"Ferrari's race pace is a couple of tenths faster than ours. We have to work out how we are going to close that gap.
"The car did not feel spectacular on the long run. There are some things we have to work on just with the tyres. But it could all be different on Sunday."
The stage seems set for a very close race between Mercedes and Ferrari, with Red Bull much closer on raw pace in the dry than they have been so far this season.
Red Bull team boss Christian Horner told BBC Sport the team had made some changes to the car and it had been "a positive day", especially for Ricciardo.
"We have hopefully closed that gap a little bit. Hopefully we can build on that through the weekend," he added.
Behind the big three, Hulkenberg was an impressive sixth fastest for Renault, ahead of Felipe Massa's Williams.
Hulkenberg's team-mate, Englishman Jolyon Palmer, was a second off the German in 13th place, just ahead of the McLaren of Fernando Alonso.
Red Bull's Max Verstappen was only eighth fastest but on his qualifying simulation his floor was damaged by a small wing that had come off Bottas' Mercedes. The Dutchman looked relatively competitive on his race runs.


A fraudster who posed as the 12th Duke of Marlborough, racking up hotel bills of almost £12,000, has been sentenced to three-and-a-half years in prison.

Alexander Wood defrauded six top London hotels including Claridges in Mayfair - where he spent £1,788 over three days - between February and July this year.
Wood, 34, from Southend in Essex, also pretended to be a senior member of British Airways staff.
The judge at Southwark Crown Court said his actions were due to "simple greed".
The fake aristocrats who tried to pull a fast one
Wood admitted several counts of fraud by false representation.
He was first arrested on 28 May after booking into the Great Northern Hotel in King's Cross under the name Lord Jamie Spencer - the 12th Duke of Marlborough is called Jamie Spencer-Churchill.
Staff became suspicious after he exceeded his daily tab of £100 on the first night, buying expensive drinks for other guests. His bill totalled £1,738.
Wood walked out of the hotel after being asked for ID by staff and tried to bribe a security guard who stopped him, the court heard.
But after being bailed his crime spree continued, with the conman racking up bills of nearly £8,000 at hotels in Mayfair, Canary Wharf and South Kensington. He was arrested again on 11 July.
In mitigation, Wood claimed he was hiding from a former employee - an escaped convict - who was making death threats against him and his family, and he argued that five-star hotels could afford to be swindled.
But prosecuting lawyer Hamish Reid said the man Wood feared was already in prison by September 2014. He added: "If you feared threats, why choose such a high profile identity?"
Passing sentence, Judge Alistair McCreath said: "I do not accept his decision to stay in hotels had anything to do with being under threat from anybody.
"The explanation is one of simple greed."
