The DUP and Sinn Fein have agreed to meet again today for more talks aimed at saving power sharing.
Arlene Foster is due to meet her Democratic Unionist assembly team later for the first time since the elections.
The party leader has faced calls to stand down but insists there is no 'revolt' within the party.
Sinn Fein has vowed not to re-enter devolved government with her as first minister.
For the first time, there is no Unionist majority at Stormont.
The election was called after former deputy first minister Martin McGuinness resigned in protest at Mrs Foster's refusal to stand aside as first minister for a public inquiry into the RHI green energy scheme.
It could cost the Northern Ireland taxpayer close to half a billion pounds.
Secretary of State James Brokenshire has been meeting Stormont party leaders in an attempt to persuade them to form a new power-sharing executive.
The parties have three weeks to overcome their differences with all of the main groups so far indicating they want to see devolution work.
Parties which went into opposition last year say they're going into talks with the intention of being in Government if a deal can be reached.
