The assembly recall follows government plans to end prosecutions for Troubles-related offences.
The Northern Ireland Assembly will debate the government's proposals for dealing with the legacy of the Troubles later.It would also end future inquests and civil actions.
The government has yet to outline how its plans, which it wants to introduce later this year, would affect the eight live Troubles-related prosecutions before Northern Ireland's courts.Following the announcement, Infrastructure Minister Nichola Mallon called for assembly members to return from their summer break to discuss the proposals.
Ms Mallon added that she hoped assembly members would come together to say "very clearly that we do not allow - we do not give our consent - to Boris Johnson and his government to do this to victims and survivors".But there was rare unity in opposing last week's announcement by the secretary of state including an end to civil actions, prosecutions and inquests.But the government is already well aware of how the Stormont politicians feel.
A number of parties accused Sinn Féin of misrepresenting their role when its president Mary-Lou McDonald stated she would be chairing talks between the parties.
