Cyprus MPs delay vote on new plan for bailout deal

MPs in Cyprus have delayed a vote on a new plan for a bailout deal until tomorrow.

The European Central Bank has given the country until Monday to find a solution to avoid bankruptcy.

It is thought the country's second largest bank - Laiki - faces closure as part of a number of measures to rescue the economy.

MP Marios Mavridis doesn't want that to happen.
