Protesters against fracking in County Fermanagh have been | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
celebrating the decision by the Environment Minister not to allow an | :00:19. | :00:20. | |
Mark H Durkan said that drilling could have a significant impact on | :00:21. | :00:24. | |
the environment and the shale gas exploration company Tamboran must | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
Here's our South West reporter Julian Fowler. | :00:28. | :00:40. | |
People gathered at the gates of the quarry as they have done for the | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
last three weeks. But feelings of fear | :00:45. | :00:46. | |
and anger were replaced by relief. They held an ecumenical service | :00:47. | :00:48. | |
celebrating the decision The Environment Minister said he was | :00:49. | :00:50. | |
taking a precautionary approach. I have listened to many people over | :00:51. | :01:06. | |
this past period of time who have raised numerous concerns, chiefly | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
around the hydrology in the Fermanagh area. That remains a key | :01:11. | :01:17. | |
concern for me. It is one we have not seen conclusive evidence that | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
there will not be an impact on, therefore in the absence of that | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
evidence I have no option other than to ask for an environmental | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
statement. If Tamboran want to drill here to | :01:29. | :01:29. | |
find out how much shale gas is in the rock, they will now need to | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
apply for full planning permission - It is a great relief that the | :01:34. | :01:47. | |
Minister has made the decision. It is the first time we will have the | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
opportunity to be consulted. It is of grave concern to the local | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
community. The fact that we have to go through the planning process with | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
the impact assessment will delay the project up | :01:59. | :01:58. | |
Tamboran Resources said it was deeply concerned | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
at the minister's decision and is reviewing its position. | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
A major emergency operation swung into action on Strangford Lough this | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
afternoon after a sudden squall hit a world championship boating event. | :02:11. | :02:16. | |
Initial reports suggested scores of people were in the water | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
87 boats were taking part in this boating event on Strangford Lough | :02:20. | :02:36. | |
when a squall, bad weather, came in very quickly. Around 20 competitors | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
ended up in the water. Some of the GP 14s capsized. This is not | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
unusual. The crew are all trained on how to write the boats. A stronger | :02:49. | :02:55. | |
squall registered 37 knots following the first, capsizing a further | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
number of the fleet. The inshore lifeboat was tasked quickly along | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
with coastguard teams. They were on the scene quickly and able to | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
establish how many people were in danger and who were safe. Two | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
helicopters were involved as with the police, the fire service and the | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
ambulance service. The Ulster Hospital declared a major incident | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
in preparation for receiving patients but few needed hospital | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
attention. The operation is over and in the end very few people needed | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
medical attention. Only two people had to go to hospital. One with a | :03:33. | :03:36. | |
suspected broken wrist, the other with an injured knee. | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
The Health Minister's told the BBC he can see merit in the idea | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
of charging people who end up in Accident and Emergency | :03:44. | :03:45. | |
It comes after a number of deaths which have been linked to waiting | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
As Chris Buckler now reports, there has been mixed a reaction | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
The NHS is a service under pressure. Waiting times are a constant worry | :03:55. | :04:04. | |
and resources are often stretched. R is in minutes can mean the | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
difference between successful care and being treated. Collett's mother | :04:08. | :04:16. | |
died at the Royal Hospital. Belfast Trust Ledger admitted the delays at | :04:17. | :04:19. | |
the emergency department may have contributed to her death and former | :04:20. | :04:24. | |
others. Even when she was seen after six hours, it was hours after that | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
before she was skunk. There were numerous issues. We often think if | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
we had made more of a noise may be things that have been different. | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
Waiting times things that have been different. | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
just at the Royal but in health trusts across Northern Ireland. | :04:45. | :04:46. | |
During the busy periods here in the trusts across Northern Ireland. | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
emergency department there have been patients lined up and this room on | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
trolleys either waiting for treatment or waiting to be admitted. | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
That has caused a blockage in the system. The pressure tends to be | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
greatest at the weekend when alcohol inevitably contributes to the | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
numbers at hospital. It has led some to call for a debate about charging | :05:08. | :05:10. | |
people who end up needing treatment as a result of drink or drugs. The | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
principle of it has merit. We already charge people, insurance | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
companies for example, for people who have come in as a result of road | :05:22. | :05:28. | |
traffic collisions, etc. There is an ability to make money from various | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
sources. It is not something wholly alien to the system. The suggestion | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
of making people pay is controversial but there was some | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
support for it in Belfast. If you are going in drug it is self | :05:42. | :05:47. | |
afflicted. Fair enough, because they are taking the time of the doctors. | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
Health services in our bad when something has to be done but I do | :05:52. | :05:57. | |
not about charging. -- the health services in a bad way. And are | :05:58. | :05:57. | |
always difficulties when services in a bad way. And are | :05:58. | :06:05. | |
change to the principle of the health service being free for all. | :06:06. | :06:07. | |
Holywood's very own Rory McIlroy is due home later this week to show | :06:08. | :06:10. | |
He clinched the PGA title yesterday just weeks after picking up | :06:11. | :06:14. | |
As darkness descended on Valhalla, on the course | :06:15. | :06:24. | |
As darkness descended on Valhalla, Rory McIlroy lifted his fourth | :06:25. | :06:29. | |
major. This morning just a few hours later, the senior steam from his own | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
club, Hollywood, where competing against Don Murray. The Hollywood | :06:34. | :06:40. | |
men lost this match but their spirits were up after Rory | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
McIlroy's winning Kentucky's. He has been fantastic for the club. Playing | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
in the father and son competition, the juvenile people around Hollywood | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
are incredible and there has been great encouragement. I is the Rory | :06:54. | :06:59. | |
McIlroy factor affecting tourism? Visiting golfers put more than ?22 | :07:00. | :07:04. | |
million into the local economy. The average spend per day is ?385 | :07:05. | :07:13. | |
compared to ?55 by other tourists. As well as the duels in our crime we | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
have a real breath of courses for different abilities and budgets. -- | :07:18. | :07:26. | |
the duels in our crown. At Hollywood golf club today several visitors | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
from England were looking forward to teeing off on Rory McIlroy's | :07:30. | :07:36. | |
concourse. If he keeps going that way he will be top of the pile. | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
Without a shadow of the doubt. He will be a great. Next to Bono he is | :07:42. | :07:46. | |
probably the best-known Irish face on the planet. If you go to some | :07:47. | :07:52. | |
South American jungle you will find somebody who knows who he is. The | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
hopes and dreams of many a golfer have been dashed or realised on the | :07:58. | :08:03. | |
golf course but still people pick up the club. The staggering success of | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
Rory McIlroy on the world stage has not just added bounce to his stab at | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
also, as a massive boost to the game here in Northern Ireland. | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
Let's get the weather. What is left of tropicals and birth | :08:18. | :08:25. | |
is controlling our weather at the moment. -- tropical storm Bertha. | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
Tonight scattered showers will continue to come in but many areas | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
will end up dry tomorrow morning. Temperatures down to ten or 11 | :08:38. | :08:40. | |
degrees. Tomorrow will be much like today and there will be bright and | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
sunny spells. Plenty of dry weather but by the afternoon you showers. To | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
get up. Tomorrow morning many will get off to a dry start. A good start | :08:50. | :08:58. | |
across town and Armagh. The storm will affect much of Scotland | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
tomorrow with blustery conditions. South of that, not as windy but | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
still quite breezy. The breeze is bringing in the scattered showers | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
across Ireland and Britain and it will feel fresh for us all and more | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
autumnal the further north you are. Tomorrow looks as though the brunt | :09:16. | :09:19. | |
of the showers will be towards the north coast. They will drift further | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
south during the day. There will be a few scattered showers. | :09:25. | :09:29. | |
Temperatures will struggle. Towards the north coast, 15 degrees, and not | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
much better further south. A better picture into Wednesday. The wind | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
will stay with us and so will be showers. Bright and sunny where | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
where as well and temperatures up to 19 degrees. For Thursday and Friday | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
things will settle down for plenty of dry and bright weather and | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
temperature is hopefully a little bit as well. | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
