Good evening. This is Newsline. The headlines: The health minister | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
warns of no let up in the pace of change in local hospitals. Capsized | :00:28. | :00:34. | |
off the Cork coast, the crew of a racing yacht praise their rescuers. | :00:34. | :00:39. | |
The hospitals and doctors have been great. If I could find an excuse to | :00:39. | :00:44. | |
come back I would find one. Residents call for the banning of | :00:44. | :00:51. | |
traditional bonfires in Londonderry. I don't know where they came out | :00:51. | :00:55. | |
from. They were eleven or 12 and they were blocked. And if you get | :00:55. | :00:59. | |
the bus to work in Belfast, you're going to need to know about big | :00:59. | :01:04. | |
changes in the city centre. I'm live with the details. There is | :01:04. | :01:10. | |
anger at the scam that has dealt the Ulster Grand Prix a financial | :01:10. | :01:15. | |
blow. If you're heading to Belsonic, there should be some pleasant | :01:15. | :01:22. | |
evening sunshine on offer. Health minister has warned there'll | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
be no let up in the changes to our health service. He spoke to BBC | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
Newsline on a visit to the Royal Victoria Hospital which will have | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
to cope with more patients when the City's accident and emergency | :01:33. | :01:36. | |
temporarily closes next month. An indication of the pressure such a | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
closure puts on other facilities has emerged with the latest waiting | :01:39. | :01:44. | |
times at the Antrim Area Hospital. In three months the number of | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
people waiting over 12 hours for emergency care more than doubled. | :01:47. | :01:57. | |
:01:57. | :01:57. | ||
Our Health Correspondent Marie- Louise Connolly reports. Sunday's | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
bus crash in Belfast triggered an emergency response. According to | :02:01. | :02:07. | |
those who managed the crisis at the royal A&E, it prove Belfast can | :02:07. | :02:14. | |
cope with just having one main tra maw -- trauma centre. The staff | :02:14. | :02:19. | |
responded. The control team worked efficiently as well. In supporting | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
the clinical staff on the ground. After catching up on the headlines, | :02:24. | :02:29. | |
the Health Minister saw for himself thousand royal intends to cope with | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
thousands more -- how the royal intends to cope with thousands more | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
patients. He said the change is just the start. I think the next | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
year will be crucial. I don't intend to make rash decisions, I | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
intend to make considered decisions. Be I don't intend to dither that. | :02:48. | :02:55. | |
Can do as much damage as the cuts could do. And we have to live | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
within a scenario are a tight budget, but if we manage our | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
resources better, we can ensure as much of that budget is kept in the | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
front line. This isn't the first time services have been transferred | :03:06. | :03:15. | |
on to one site. When the mid Ulster's A&E unit closed in 2010, | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
patients were transferred to Antrim. That hospital is still under | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
pressure. Between April and June this year, the number of people who | :03:23. | :03:28. | |
had to wait more than twelve hours in Antrim for emergency care more | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
than doubled. Figures for the Royal Victoria Hospital's show the number | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
having to wait has gone down, the question is will that remain the | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
case once it has to cater for patients who normally would have | :03:40. | :03:46. | |
attended the City Hospital? While a new unit will open in 2013, what is | :03:46. | :03:51. | |
happening at Antrim is proof that even with the extra beds and staff, | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
managers can't plan for every eventuality. The one thing that | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
happen tafd changes that we couldn't have predicted was the | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
scale of the demand for admissions for older people. We're working to | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
make sure we take doctors to patients and to keep people | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
independent at home. But it is those on the Fron line who will | :04:11. | :04:17. | |
ensure that the system cope. But according to unions, workers aren't | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
being consulted. When decisions are being made in the absence of any | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
consultation, any information, or any input from the unions, which | :04:26. | :04:30. | |
will lead to industrial action if they carry on. The people who are | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
instigating the change will be hoping their sense of optimism is | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
contagious. Because without the support of the health unions, the | :04:38. | :04:45. | |
public, ve ten politicians, the transition will become more painful | :04:45. | :04:51. | |
and not just here in Belfast, but right across Northern Ireland. A | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
Belfast man was among those who rescued the crew of a yacht, that | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
capsized off county Cork last night during the Fastnet Race. Geoff | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
Kirkpatrick's dive boat answered the distress call and picked up | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
five crew who were thrown overboard. 16 others who held on to the | :05:03. | :05:06. | |
upturned vessel were rescued by the RNLI. Our Dublin reporter Julie | :05:06. | :05:16. | |
:05:16. | :05:25. | ||
Kirby has more. The rambler 100 was leading the Fastnet fleet when | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
disaster struck yesterday. It took just 15 seconds for the yacht to | :05:30. | :05:35. | |
suddenly flip over. Some of the 21 crew were asleep below deck at the | :05:35. | :05:41. | |
time. At the helm was a five-times round the world champion. We just | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
jumped off a wave and heard a big bang. I thought it was in the rig | :05:45. | :05:50. | |
and I looked up in the mast and everything looked OK. But the mast | :05:50. | :05:57. | |
was falling over. So it was obvious that we worked out the keel had | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
broken. 16 crew managed to cling to the hull of the yacht, but five | :06:00. | :06:06. | |
others were swept out to sea. An emergency beacon was activated and | :06:06. | :06:13. | |
a May Day went out. On board one vessel was a Belfast man on a | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
photography trip. We saw this small dot on the water and we only | :06:18. | :06:23. | |
thought it was one person. But it was five people that were grouped | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
together they had tied themselves together. Then we got alongside | :06:27. | :06:34. | |
them and threw a rope over. So there was one of the, a lady in the | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
group of five, which was the owner's girlfriend, she was in a | :06:38. | :06:45. | |
very poor state. She was nearly losing consciousness. Woman was | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
airlifted to hospital in Kerry, where she is recovering. But it | :06:49. | :06:54. | |
could have all ended so differently. Back in 1979, two days into the | :06:54. | :07:04. | |
race, a storm blew up. Hurricane winds tossed the yachts over waefrs | :07:04. | :07:10. | |
80 feet high, devastating the fleet and leaving 15 dead. Although this | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
a challenging event, technological advances mean it is a safer race | :07:14. | :07:20. | |
and crews are more aware of the dangers. It was a relieved crew on | :07:20. | :07:26. | |
dry land last night. Great they gave us more care than we needed. I | :07:26. | :07:35. | |
guess if I could find an excuse to come back I will find one. Probably | :07:35. | :07:41. | |
that -- one that is less traumatic. Now the operation to salvage the | :07:41. | :07:50. | |
multi-million pound yacht will begin. A 65-year-old man has died | :07:50. | :07:57. | |
in a road accident in kill Keele. The police say the road will be | :07:57. | :08:07. | |
:08:07. | :08:11. | ||
closed for some time. The Presbyterian Church is at | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
loggerheads with one of its own ministers over comments in an | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
Orange Order statement. It accused the Parades Commission waging a | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
holy war against the loyal orders. The Church says the language is | :08:19. | :08:21. | |
unacceptable. Here's our political correspondent Gareth Gordon. Orange | :08:21. | :08:26. | |
men on Sunday parade, traditionally marched to the sound of traditional | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
hims. But this one was told it could only play abide with me as it | :08:32. | :08:39. | |
followed a nationalist area. They claimed they were the victim of | :08:39. | :08:45. | |
Jihad. The hymns will be played shall be the choice of bands. We | :08:45. | :08:52. | |
won't be kick Tait -- dictated to. They may play abide with me, they | :08:52. | :08:56. | |
may not. We have an agency of the Government banning Christian hymns. | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
I can't believe that. What the Parades Commission couldn't believe | :09:00. | :09:07. | |
was the language. They were labelled Mullahs, accused of an | :09:07. | :09:11. | |
action worthy of the Taliban. So they wrote to the Presbyterian | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
church to complain. We have obtained a copy of the response. It | :09:15. | :09:19. | |
said the language would only be used with the intention of causing | :09:19. | :09:25. | |
offence. It was, said the church, unhelpful and unacceptable. That | :09:25. | :09:31. | |
and can pbl be seen as a criticism of the order and in particular it | :09:31. | :09:38. | |
own minister, the Reverend Gibson. Mervyn Gibson is minister here and | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
he told us he wasn't impressed with by the clutch's response and said | :09:42. | :09:48. | |
they hadn't discussed the mat we are him. He has also submitted a | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
freedom of information request, seeking copies of correspondence | :09:51. | :09:55. | |
the commission has about him, with a view, he says to possible legal | :09:55. | :10:05. | |
:10:05. | :10:07. | ||
action. Still to come on the programme: How some fans cheated | :10:07. | :10:12. | |
their way to watch the Ulster Grand Prix. The fans are gathering and it | :10:12. | :10:20. | |
has got to be the opening night of the Belsonic music festival. | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
Bonfires marking the Feast of the Assumption, an important day in the | :10:23. | :10:25. | |
Catholic calendar, have provoked anger in some nationalist estates | :10:25. | :10:28. | |
where they were once a traditional ritual. Residents in part of | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
Londonderry say several bonfires were lit close to their homes last | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
night and they have called for them to be banned on health and safety | :10:34. | :10:44. | |
:10:44. | :10:47. | ||
grounds. Here's our North-West reporter, Keiron Tourish. It is | :10:47. | :10:51. | |
estimated around half a dozen bonfire were lit across the city | :10:51. | :10:57. | |
yesterday in what has become a tradition on August 15th. Wood and | :10:57. | :11:05. | |
other material was piled high and burned in several nationalist areas. | :11:05. | :11:11. | |
In Moss Park, there was a big clear up operation today. Locals were | :11:11. | :11:16. | |
furious after a large crowd gathered there last night to watch | :11:16. | :11:20. | |
the bonfire. I don't know where they came out of. I'm here 30 odd | :11:20. | :11:27. | |
years and the crowd was there last night. And there was between 11 and | :11:27. | :11:34. | |
12 and they were blocked. Where is the parents? I had enough. And the | :11:34. | :11:39. | |
rest had enough. We're not doing it next year. One community workers | :11:39. | :11:49. | |
said the council must act to ban the tires. -- fires. Youngsters, | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
they reckon there was 500 people here watching this bonfire. No one | :11:52. | :11:58. | |
has talked to locals about this. The locals are upset. This is a | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
housing executive site and this has gone ahead. They have been | :12:01. | :12:07. | |
terrified and hemmed into their own homes and had their property | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
damaged. One priest in the city says the annual bonfires have no | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
link with the Catholic church and they should be scrapped. This area | :12:14. | :12:22. | |
in the most part is elderly people. And people coming from all parts | :12:22. | :12:29. | |
for the occasion to drink alcohol, and to just make a nuisance of | :12:29. | :12:34. | |
themselves and cause fights. This kind of coming together, it has no | :12:34. | :12:41. | |
place in the Christian calendar. The council will spend some time | :12:41. | :12:46. | |
clearing up. But for some the issue remains unresolved. News now of | :12:46. | :12:48. | |
changes to some bus services and stops around Belfast City centre. | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
Due on 1st September, they're part of the Department of Regional | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
Development's initiative, Belfast on the Move, which aims to reduce | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
the amount of traffic on the roads. Our reporter Alexandra Mackenzie is | :12:57. | :13:07. | |
:13:07. | :13:07. | ||
outside the City Hall. What are the headlines in these changes? Well | :13:07. | :13:14. | |
I'm here in Donegall Square, an area busy with buses and as we have | :13:14. | :13:19. | |
seen... All right we are going to. Clearly we have people trying to | :13:19. | :13:25. | |
disrupt our broadcast in Belfast. We will try the get back to her | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
later. Organisers of motorcycling's Ulster Grand Prix say they've been | :13:28. | :13:37. | |
dealt a serious financial blow. Here's Stephen Watson. Thousands of | :13:37. | :13:42. | |
spectators eneveryone joyed seeing the -- enjoyed seeing the top racer. | :13:42. | :13:48. | |
But many got to see it for a lot less. They were able to cheat their | :13:48. | :13:54. | |
way on to the circuit with fake wrist bands. Chris Page reports. It | :13:54. | :14:00. | |
is the world's fastest road race. But some spectators have pulled a | :14:00. | :14:08. | |
fast one. �25 get you into the Ulster Grand Prix. Fake wrist bands | :14:08. | :14:13. | |
were being sold on Saturday for just �10. So some people got to see | :14:13. | :14:18. | |
the action cut price. You can't call yourself race fans. It doesn't | :14:18. | :14:23. | |
help our case. It costs a lot to put this on. We work hard all year | :14:23. | :14:29. | |
to make it happen. And its annoying after that to hear these thins. | :14:29. | :14:34. | |
Some of these were passed off. Organisers are investigating, but t | :14:34. | :14:40. | |
at the moment, they don't know how many of 10,000 spectators got away | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
with paying full price. The size of the circuit means it is difficult | :14:44. | :14:51. | |
to secure the whole way around. The Grand Prix is held between Antrim | :14:51. | :14:58. | |
and Lisburn. The circuit is made up of rule roads. We have the man | :14:58. | :15:03. | |
power around the 13 approach roads, them guys work hard. Trying to get | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
people. But there is always people who will try and beat the system. | :15:07. | :15:14. | |
The money lost adds up. The Grand Prix costs �500,000 to run. | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
According to a farmer champion, its is important that people pay. | :15:17. | :15:21. | |
People look at the people here and the cars that are here and say they | :15:21. | :15:25. | |
must make a fortunement 3 they don't see where the money is going | :15:25. | :15:29. | |
out to bring the teams and top riders here and insurance and the | :15:29. | :15:34. | |
rest of the things that goes with the vents. The grand stands are | :15:34. | :15:39. | |
coming down sh but organisers are planning for the 2012 race. They | :15:39. | :15:43. | |
will try to make sure that no spectators are able to cheat the | :15:43. | :15:53. | |
:15:53. | :16:05. | ||
system. You can see highlights tonight at 10.35 on BBC1. Robbie | :16:05. | :16:08. | |
Keane has revealed a chat with David Beckham was key in his | :16:08. | :16:10. | |
decision to join Major League Soccer club LA Galaxy. The Republic | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
of Ireland captain, who'd been unhappy at the lack of first-team | :16:13. | :16:16. | |
football at Spurs, is moving to California on a two-year deal. | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
Austin O'Callaghan reports. There is a long stanged joke about Robbie | :16:18. | :16:25. | |
keen's fool ball clear. He has had more clubs than Jack Nicklaus. Some | :16:25. | :16:31. | |
prompt happy memories, others less so. LA Galaxy will be his ninth | :16:31. | :16:35. | |
club. Some of his team mate will be familiar. David Beckham trained | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
with Spurs recently and it would appear that is when the idea of a | :16:39. | :16:44. | |
move for him to California began. He is a great addition to our team. | :16:44. | :16:49. | |
We're excited about bringing him here. I think he is excited as well. | :16:49. | :16:54. | |
I know he is. I think he could be an excellent addition to the squad. | :16:54. | :16:59. | |
He is an experienced player. A proven player at the club and | :16:59. | :17:05. | |
international level. I think at an age where he still will have many | :17:05. | :17:11. | |
productive years ahead of him. was part of the so-called golden | :17:11. | :17:17. | |
generation of Irish footballers that emerged in the 90s. There is | :17:17. | :17:22. | |
no arguing with 108 international caps. But it is hi club form which | :17:22. | :17:27. | |
has fluctuated over the years. His new team mate though believe LA | :17:27. | :17:32. | |
offers a solution. He is the type of play hear the will succeed, | :17:32. | :17:37. | |
because of his, I think he is a humble player, he works hard and he | :17:37. | :17:45. | |
wl put himself in good spots to score. It is not yet clear if the | :17:45. | :17:48. | |
distance will complicate his commitment to the Irish team. | :17:48. | :17:53. | |
Travelling home for a friendly match could be an issue. But Robbie | :17:53. | :18:00. | |
keen is happy to be California's second biggest footballing star. | :18:00. | :18:03. | |
Brendan Rogers from Carnlough had his first experience of managing in | :18:03. | :18:05. | |
the Premier League last night. He took his newly-promoted Swansea | :18:05. | :18:07. | |
City to face big-spending Manchester City. Unfortunately for | :18:07. | :18:09. | |
Rogers, another debutant grabbed all the headlines. Nial Foster | :18:09. | :18:19. | |
:18:19. | :18:27. | ||
reports. Brendan Rogers got a warm reception. That was from his | :18:27. | :18:30. | |
opposite number, Roberto Mancini. There is no doubt the support he | :18:30. | :18:39. | |
had from his own side's fans. Despite touchline pacing, Swansea | :18:39. | :18:46. | |
kept City at bay for an hour. But another player grabbed the | :18:46. | :18:53. | |
headlines, Aguero inspired City's headlines, Aguero inspired City's | :18:53. | :18:58. | |
glol flurry. -- goal flurry. What a way to round off your City and | :18:58. | :19:03. | |
Premier League debut. For large Premier League debut. For large | :19:03. | :19:05. | |
parts of the game we were good. In particular the first hour. Some of | :19:05. | :19:13. | |
our possession and confidence that we showed coming hoor was I was -- | :19:13. | :19:18. | |
here, I was proud of the players. They got the two quick goals, that | :19:18. | :19:21. | |
were disappointing. But I think I was given many positives from | :19:21. | :19:27. | |
tonight. It has given us great hope. Better Tays will surely come. -- | :19:27. | :19:33. | |
day will surely come. Johann Muller was training with his Ulster team- | :19:33. | :19:36. | |
mates today for the first time since being named as the new club | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
captain. The South African takes over the reins from Rory Best. | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
Muller joined at the start of last season and at the end of the | :19:42. | :19:45. | |
campaign was named Ulster Rugby Personality of the Year. The team's | :19:45. | :19:48. | |
opening game in the Rabo-Direct Pro-Twelve League is now less than | :19:48. | :19:58. | |
:19:58. | :20:00. | ||
three weeks way. Glasgow will be the visitors to Raven Hill and you | :20:00. | :20:05. | |
can see it live here. We managed to shake off the hecklers in Belfast | :20:05. | :20:14. | |
City centre. Alexander MacKenzie is there to tell us about changes to | :20:14. | :20:22. | |
the buses. A bit of peace for you now. What are the headlines? Yes, a | :20:22. | :20:27. | |
bit calmer here in Donegall Square west A lot of buses behind me. | :20:27. | :20:31. | |
People going home from work, people coming back into the city centre | :20:31. | :20:35. | |

I'm feeling nervous. I don't want to look at the crowd. But it is an | :23:38. | :23:42. | |
incredible opportunity to be here on a great platform and in Belfast. | :23:42. | :23:48. | |
It is good. This us your biggest gig and you're on soon. How you | :23:48. | :23:55. | |

of luck. I know you're on in about ten minutes. Thank you. You have to | :24:20. | :24:28. | |
turn around to see this crowd. It - - there is expected to be... What | :24:28. | :24:33. | |
do you think of that? About 50,000 people expected over the next nine | :24:33. | :24:41. | |
days. Absolutely legendary. If you would like to hear more about the | :24:41. | :24:45. | |
Belsonic line up, there are tickets available on their web-site. Back | :24:45. | :24:52. | |
to you. Just waver back. She was diing to burst into song there. | :24:52. | :24:57. | |
we can guarantee that it will be pretty try tonight. I don't know | :24:57. | :25:01. | |
know about the -- dry tonight. I don't know about the next eleven | :25:01. | :25:06. | |
days of the festival. It is good for them tonight? Yes what a releaf, | :25:06. | :25:14. | |
I wouldn't like to have to say it will rain. It should stay dry | :25:14. | :25:18. | |
tonight. We had a good deal of cloud in the first part of day, but | :25:18. | :25:24. | |
a fine end to the day with some pleasant evening sunshine. It is a | :25:24. | :25:28. | |
largely dry story. Of course, these clear skies will enable | :25:28. | :25:32. | |
temperatures to take a hammering tonight. It will be cool, with | :25:32. | :25:35. | |
Heathers -- temperatures well down on the seasonal average. But | :25:35. | :25:40. | |
largely dry tonight. But there could be the odd shower in the | :25:40. | :25:46. | |
north west. But generally cry dry - - dry, but temperature down to four | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
in the south-west. The winds will be light. So there is the chance of | :25:50. | :25:59. | |
the odd pocket of mist. Specially - - specially towards the south. It | :25:59. | :26:03. | |
will be a sunny start to Wednesday. Cool, but at least plenty of | :26:04. | :26:09. | |
sunshine will come flooding in for the first part of Kay. The -- part | :26:09. | :26:13. | |
of the day. Through the afternoon we will see more cloud at types. | :26:13. | :26:17. | |
But it won't spoil things too much. Sunny specimen will break break | :26:17. | :26:21. | |
through and we have less of a breeze. When the sun comes out it | :26:21. | :26:27. | |
will feel warm. Temperatures up to 17 or 18 degrees. I can't guarantee | :26:27. | :26:31. | |
it will stay dry all day. There will be some showers during the | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
afternoon. But a ridge of high pressure takes over tomorrow and it | :26:34. | :26:39. | |
is largely a dry story. But you see the clouds thinning as the day | :26:39. | :26:44. | |
wares on. And there is more Belsonic activities tomorrow. It | :26:44. | :26:50. | |
won't be as Sonny tomorrow. But it should stay -- as sunny tomorrow, | :26:50. | :26:55. | |
but it should stay dry. It will turn cool on Wednesday night. | :26:55. | :26:58. | |
Thursday a mixture of sunshine and showers. Although Thursday's | :26:58. | :27:01. | |
showers will be heavier. So be warned. Again in the sunshine | :27:01. | :27:06. | |
temperatures up to 17 Celsius. So some good weather to come on | :27:06. | :27:10. | |
Wednesday. And on Thursday, sunny spell and showers. The showers | :27:10. | :27:15. | |
beefier orp on Thursday. Friday is starting off sunny, but there is | :27:15. | :27:19. | |
rain on the way and it look like it will arave on the second part of | :27:19. | :27:25. | |
Friday. Thank you. Sunshine but also always a but. We will leave | :27:25. | :27:34. | |
you with the stories making the headlines: On a visit to the Royal | :27:34. | :27:36. | |
