The Prime Minister has arrived for a working dinner with world leaders in the US city of Pittsburgh, ahead of the G20 Summit of leading world economies. He says the Summit is a historic opportunity for countries to agree on a coordinated plan for sustainable growth. Leaders will examine the progress of the world's economic recovery from the global financial crisis and chart a course to avoid it happening again.

Earlier, the UN Security Council unanimously voted to stop the spread of nuclear weapons. The US President Barack Obama says the resolution gives the Security Council the authority and responsibility to respond to violations.

"The historic resolution we just adopted enshrines our shared commitment to the goal of a world without nuclear weapons. And it brings Security Council agreement on a broad framework for action to reduce nuclear dangers as we work toward that goal." It's only the fifth time the 15-member Security Council has met at this level.

And Britain's largest hoard of buried treasure has been discovered in a field in Staffordshire in central England. The collections of 1,500 gold and silver jewelling crafted pieces are thought to date back to the 7th century. Experts say it’s unparalleled in size and worth a seven-figure sum.

We'll have more news later.
