:00:40. > :00:42.A world champion will lead out the NI team at the Commonwealth

:00:43. > :00:52.And we've done it again - today is now the hottest day of the

:00:53. > :00:55.year so far, but it could be even warmer tomorrow, so don't miss the

:00:56. > :01:02.A man who was shot in both legs in Londonderry last night was

:01:03. > :01:06."shot by appointment", that's according to the DUP.

:01:07. > :01:09.The attack was carried out in a play park in the mainly loyalist Lincoln

:01:10. > :01:13.The Police have described it as horrific and barbaric

:01:14. > :01:22.Here's our North-West reporter, Keiron Tourish.

:01:23. > :01:25.The horror of the play park shooting - specialist

:01:26. > :01:29.cleaners from the DoE had to be brought in to remove blood from

:01:30. > :01:32.the streets of this housing estate in the Waterside area of the city.

:01:33. > :01:35.Most of the footage is too graphic to be broadcast.

:01:36. > :01:44.A 32-year-old man was targeted here at half past eleven last night.

:01:45. > :01:47.He was shot in both legs only a few feet from

:01:48. > :01:51.It's understood he made his way from the scene back to his home

:01:52. > :01:57.a short distance away, a scene which shocked local residents.

:01:58. > :02:05.It is terrible. I thought these things were over. That is a shock.

:02:06. > :02:08.You like to think you're living in a safe area and you do not want any

:02:09. > :02:14.things like that. The DUP say the man who was shot was

:02:15. > :02:18.told to turn up here in advance so this punishment style attack

:02:19. > :02:20.could be carried out. The party says there can be

:02:21. > :02:28.no justification for it. It is totally disgusting that this

:02:29. > :02:33.happened in a playpark. This area has been relatively quiet over the

:02:34. > :02:39.last year, as have a lot of loyalist areas. I am surprised and shocked

:02:40. > :02:44.that this has happened. But to happen in a playpark where you have

:02:45. > :02:50.children playing, any child coming up here, there is a trail of blood.

:02:51. > :02:54.It is down into the residential area. I think it is crazy and the

:02:55. > :02:56.people who did this need a good look at themselves.

:02:57. > :02:58.The Police say they've interviewed the victim in hospital where he's

:02:59. > :03:07.Detectives are keeping an open mind as to the motive for the attack.

:03:08. > :03:13.It is a horrific attack. A beautiful evening last night and this man was

:03:14. > :03:18.shot in each leg. He is seriously injured. Thankfully he is getting

:03:19. > :03:23.medical treatment. It was barbaric. It sends out all the wrong signals.

:03:24. > :03:26.It has brought great injury to the victim. It is important we track

:03:27. > :03:30.down those responsible and bring them to justice. Police have issued

:03:31. > :03:34.an appeal for information. They want to hear from anyone who noticed any

:03:35. > :03:39.suspicious activity or who witnessed the shooting to get in touch.

:03:40. > :03:41.There've been calls for the resignation of a

:03:42. > :03:43.DUP Minister after a Stormont committee found he'd misled it.

:03:44. > :03:45.Only the members of Nelsons McCausland's own party disagreed

:03:46. > :03:52.with the verdict of the majority of MLAs on the Social Development

:03:53. > :03:56.Committee who are carrying out an inquiry into allegations of

:03:57. > :03:58.political interference in the running of the Housing Executive. Mr

:03:59. > :04:00.McCausland denies he misled the committee and has described

:04:01. > :04:07.Here's our political correspondent Gareth Gordon.

:04:08. > :04:10.The inquiry was launched after this BBC Spotlight programme alleged

:04:11. > :04:15.political interference in the running of the Housing Executive.

:04:16. > :04:18.The first issue it considered was a meeting the minister held

:04:19. > :04:23.in April 2012 to discuss double glazing contracts.

:04:24. > :04:27.He claimed it was with a body called the Glass and Glazing Federation,

:04:28. > :04:30.In fact it was with a company called Turkington's which has in

:04:31. > :04:43.In light of the witness evidence given to date and the recent

:04:44. > :04:49.document discovery exercise within my department, I'm acknowledge I

:04:50. > :04:52.inadvertently and unintentionally misinformed the committee in this

:04:53. > :04:58.letter. Let me ask you you that this was not in anyway deliberate. I

:04:59. > :05:02.never sought to hide that staff from Turkington's were there on 16th

:05:03. > :05:04.April. I simply believe they were representing the federation.

:05:05. > :05:07.But a majority of the committee found that determined efforts that

:05:08. > :05:09.the Minister and his Special Adviser made to remove Turkington's

:05:10. > :05:15.from the record were neither unintentional nor inadvertent.

:05:16. > :05:20.This is the only jurisdiction in western democracy where a minister

:05:21. > :05:25.would face such charges and still remain in office. His own party

:05:26. > :05:29.should take action and tickets quickly and effectively. It is a

:05:30. > :05:32.serious conclusion the committee has reached and there clearly are

:05:33. > :05:33.serious questions needing to be addressed by those who have been

:05:34. > :05:35.named in this report. This DUP committee member claims

:05:36. > :05:44.the inquiry is a witch hunt. I do not believe that he has done

:05:45. > :05:50.anything wrong other than hold meetings with a company which, as a

:05:51. > :05:53.result of those meetings, he has saved millions of pounds for the

:05:54. > :05:58.public purse which means there is more money to spend on other things

:05:59. > :06:00.in housing. That is not a minister who is neglecting his duty, he is

:06:01. > :06:01.doing his duty. It's emerged that earlier this

:06:02. > :06:03.month, Mr McCausland wrote to the committee claiming the report

:06:04. > :06:06.is fundamentally flawed and weak in its analysis and statement of

:06:07. > :06:08.the facts and therefore should not The majority

:06:09. > :06:12.of committee members also expressed "deep concern about the inaction of

:06:13. > :06:17.senior civil servants" to robustly challenge the Minister

:06:18. > :06:19.when they "knew he was factually incorrect in his statements to

:06:20. > :06:29.the Assembly and the Committee.? But the DSD's Permanent Secretary,

:06:30. > :06:31.Will Haire, wrote to them saying officials felt the need to put

:06:32. > :06:34.on record their "disagreement" with the report's views "in relation

:06:35. > :06:46.to the role of civil servants." Nelson McCausland was not giving any

:06:47. > :06:50.interviews today. The inquiry is far from over. It begins in September

:06:51. > :06:54.and this report will be evaded in the Assembly. -- debated.

:06:55. > :06:56.In fact the committee intends to double

:06:57. > :07:01.the number of evidence sessions in the autumn from one to two a week.

:07:02. > :07:09.Still to come... It has been so busy here on the

:07:10. > :07:10.north coast there will be big traffic jams and big queues for ice

:07:11. > :07:23.cream. The jury has retired to consider

:07:24. > :07:26.its verdict in the case of John Brown, the brother

:07:27. > :07:28.of Eurovision winner and former The 60-year-old from Bracknell is

:07:29. > :07:32.accused of five counts of indecent assault against two girls aged as

:07:33. > :07:35.young as five and ten in the 1970s. It's been alleged during the trial

:07:36. > :07:39.that his sister Dana helped to keep the alleged attacks secret for more

:07:40. > :07:42.than 30 years - something she denied The jury has been told by

:07:43. > :07:48.the judge to be "coolly analytical" The Northern Ireland Executive is

:07:49. > :08:02.coming under pressure to make up a shortfall

:08:03. > :08:04.in funding to turn Armagh's historic It comes after the private developer

:08:05. > :08:08.involved in the project said he was Here's our business

:08:09. > :08:12.correspondent Julian O'Neill. The jail's conversion into a hotel

:08:13. > :08:15.and housing will cost ?25 million. But its owner, Armagh Council, is

:08:16. > :08:21.fearful the project could be lost. It is hugely disappointed

:08:22. > :08:23.its private development partner may withdraw his 11 million

:08:24. > :08:25.because Stormont departments will One MLA believes they want to

:08:26. > :08:42.be cautious with public money. It will be disappointing for the

:08:43. > :08:46.developer to walk away but the reality is there have been questions

:08:47. > :08:50.over the business case over the last number of months. If the business

:08:51. > :08:51.case stacks up, I do not see any reason as to why people can't

:08:52. > :08:52.support that. The developer wants a pledge

:08:53. > :08:56.of an extra ?4 million by September and after seven years work neither

:08:57. > :09:10.he nor Armagh wishes to go back to Scaling back on the project's cost

:09:11. > :09:14.is not considered a preferable option. The city council feels

:09:15. > :09:15.reducing the capital will reduce the regeneration potential of this

:09:16. > :09:16.project. By regeneration, the council does

:09:17. > :09:30.not just mean jobs in a hotel, And investment like this should be

:09:31. > :09:35.very welcome and government, I think, should do all in its power to

:09:36. > :09:39.secure that development. The contribution being asked of the

:09:40. > :09:40.public purse in relative terms is quite small.

:09:41. > :09:43.The council has written to the Office of the First and Deputy

:09:44. > :09:47.It has not given up, but is now pinning its hopes

:09:48. > :09:55.Staying with the economy and a major regeneration project in Strabane has

:09:56. > :09:58.been given the go-ahead by the Environment Minister Mark H Durkan.

:09:59. > :10:03.The Three Rivers project will involve developing a 50 acre site

:10:04. > :10:08.It will include a hotel, business park and wildlife centre.

:10:09. > :10:10.The developers claim it could eventually create work

:10:11. > :10:15.But some retailers say the inclusion of a supermarket in

:10:16. > :10:19.the plan could have a devastating impact on the town centre.

:10:20. > :10:26.Our Economics and Business Editor John Campbell is here.

:10:27. > :10:35.The potential of 1000 jobs on a 50 acre site is quite substantial? This

:10:36. > :10:39.is probably the biggest regeneration scheme Strabane has seen in a

:10:40. > :10:45.generation. The developers say that all told, they look to spend about

:10:46. > :10:49.?50 million and include a hotel, a supermarket, leisure facilities, a

:10:50. > :10:52.sports centre and wider environmental improvement of the

:10:53. > :10:57.area. They say it is not just about Strabane but that it will bring

:10:58. > :11:01.benefits to the whole area. Retailers are not happy, why?

:11:02. > :11:06.Originally this scheme did not contain a retail element then in

:11:07. > :11:10.2012, there was a new planning application which included a

:11:11. > :11:16.supermarket. Retailers and the chamber of commerce say they are for

:11:17. > :11:19.anything which improves Strabane but put a new supermarket on the

:11:20. > :11:21.outskirts of the town and it will make things impossible for retailers

:11:22. > :11:26.in the town centre. They say it is tough enough to make a living as a

:11:27. > :11:30.retailer in Strabane, and if they have to compete with an out-of-town

:11:31. > :11:34.centre it will be impossible. They say that the Planning Minister and

:11:35. > :11:39.the Environment Minister, Mark H Durkan, came up with the policy

:11:40. > :11:43.called Town Centres First a few months ago and it is all about

:11:44. > :11:50.retail in town centres. He is riding roughshod over his own policy. What

:11:51. > :11:56.has the Minister said in response to the concerns? The minister says he

:11:57. > :12:02.has never said never, he has just said town centres first. He has to

:12:03. > :12:05.take a broader view of the economic impact of any application. He says

:12:06. > :12:09.when you look at a town like Strabane and its problems, he will

:12:10. > :12:13.not apologise for making the decision the development to go

:12:14. > :12:18.ahead. We all know that Strabane is an area of high deprivation and one

:12:19. > :12:23.that needs any boost it can get. Strabane does not get that many

:12:24. > :12:27.chances and I am certainly happy to approve this project to give it the

:12:28. > :12:32.chance. What will happen next with the project? It will be down to the

:12:33. > :12:35.developers to a pointy contractors. You could also possibly see the

:12:36. > :12:38.retailers rang to challenge the decision in the courts. -- trying to

:12:39. > :12:40.challenge. It's been blue skies pretty much

:12:41. > :12:43.across Northern Ireland today. Yesterday we'd the hottest day of

:12:44. > :12:46.the year so far with temperatures That was recorded at the Giant's

:12:47. > :12:49.Causeway on the north coast. And that's where BBC Newsline Mark

:12:50. > :13:02.Simpson headed off to this morning. We are looking at another good few

:13:03. > :13:07.days. I can see you have plenty of sun cream. Did we reach a record

:13:08. > :13:11.high? I have never seen anything like it,

:13:12. > :13:15.particularly here in Portstewart when I arrived at around ten o'clock

:13:16. > :13:22.this morning it was already a sweltering 24 degrees. Have a look

:13:23. > :13:25.at what it is like here tonight. People are enjoying themselves.

:13:26. > :13:34.There are three words to describe it had a - hot, hot, hot. It is not

:13:35. > :13:38.spin, it is not Portugal. It's not Brazil, its Northern Ireland.

:13:39. > :13:42.Visitors who came here expecting rain rather than sunshine could not

:13:43. > :13:49.quite believe it. I love it, it is really nice. It is like this all the

:13:50. > :13:54.time. Know it is not! This is the first time it has been sunny. The

:13:55. > :14:04.weather in Cyprus is normally 13 degrees but it is nice here. It is

:14:05. > :14:09.cooler? Yes. In Cyprus you're used to high temperatures that this is

:14:10. > :14:12.Portstewart. When the weather is good people, I'd earlier and stay

:14:13. > :14:17.later and everybody is in better form. It helps the ice cream sales.

:14:18. > :14:23.It is good for everybody. I love it but it is too hot for working. I am

:14:24. > :14:28.going on holiday on Saturday so I can sunbathe then! It was so hard,

:14:29. > :14:35.no wonder so many people came to Portrush to try to cool down. Even

:14:36. > :14:40.the water is pretty warm - it is not often you can say that about the

:14:41. > :14:46.north coast. And when the weather is so good it is only right to make a

:14:47. > :14:55.song and dance. And here, fresh from Britain's Got Talent, and Irish

:14:56. > :14:59.dancing group. Across Northern Ireland, the sun was shining. It has

:15:00. > :15:04.been a relatively good summer so far, but nothing quite like this.

:15:05. > :15:10.The longer the day went on, the hotter it got. It brought back

:15:11. > :15:15.memories of last year's heatwave. And it looks like it is not going to

:15:16. > :15:19.be a one-day wonder, with more sunshine to come this week from

:15:20. > :15:29.morning to evening, from east to west, and from coast-to-coast. As

:15:30. > :15:33.always, the good weather has taken a lot of people by surprise and

:15:34. > :15:38.talking to the hotels around here and the B owners, they say they do

:15:39. > :15:41.have some availability left for the rest of the week. As we know, the

:15:42. > :15:46.weather for the rest of the week is supposed to be very good, maybe even

:15:47. > :15:48.hotter than today. If I don't turn up for work tomorrow, you will know

:18:43. > :18:46.say, what jobs? Some may have had their minds made up but others were

:18:47. > :18:50.swayed by what they heard from their peers. You think that in ten or 15

:18:51. > :18:54.years, we will have to do with the consequences. I think it is

:18:55. > :19:02.important that they are the ones to discuss the issue now. Even night

:19:03. > :19:06.with the recent events, you can see the conflict in the room. Whether

:19:07. > :19:12.fracking goes ahead or not will affect not just the people in this

:19:36. > :19:38.Very little. The opening ceremony takes place this evening at the

:19:39. > :19:42.Celtic football ground. As you probably know, all of the details

:19:43. > :19:48.are a closely guarded secret. Like all of the big opening ceremonies.

:20:01. > :20:04.Ireland. He won a bronze medal at the last Commonwealth Games in Delhi

:20:05. > :20:09.and since then he has become a major name in cycling. Last year he struck

:20:10. > :20:13.gold at the World Track Championships becoming the first

:20:14. > :20:20.Irishman to do so and 117 years. He is a big medal contender here in

:22:17. > :22:19.themselves. For the first time ever, Northern Ireland will be represented

:22:20. > :22:25.in the sport of netball at the Commonwealth Games. The lady says

:22:26. > :22:34.Mullaly at the SECC. -- the lady 's face Mullaly.

:22:35. > :22:36.The boxing competition is where Northern Ireland has traditionally

:22:37. > :22:38.always done well at the Commonwealth Games.

:22:39. > :22:40.Four years ago the team returned from Delhi with

:22:41. > :22:42.five medals and, historically, our boxers have won more medals

:22:43. > :22:46.Hopes are high here again, especially as we have top women

:22:47. > :23:01.Women's boxing makes its Commonwealth Games debut in Glasgow

:23:02. > :23:05.and Northern Ireland has two fighters determined to make their

:23:06. > :23:08.mark. Michaela Walsh already has medals from European and World

:23:09. > :23:15.Championships and is continuing a strong family tradition in the

:23:16. > :23:21.sport. My brother boxes and my father is a coach. I asked if I

:23:22. > :23:25.could try and he said it was not for girls. I kept torturing him and he

:23:26. > :23:31.finally got me there and I have been in the sport ever since. And I am

:23:32. > :23:39.not on the Commonwealth team. It is the best feeling in the world. -- I

:23:40. > :23:52.am now on the Commonwealth team. Li-wen of -- Li-wen for Britain was

:23:53. > :23:57.celebrated. She is the reason that women's boxing is where it is and

:23:58. > :24:04.especially she is from Ireland, it gives us more confidence. We have

:24:05. > :24:08.got the best pound for pound girls ranking in the world. There is no

:24:09. > :24:12.better preparation and training alongside an athlete like Katie

:24:13. > :24:15.Taylor. Four years ago the Northern Ireland squad topped the boxing

:24:16. > :24:19.medals table with three gold and two silver. Michael Conlan lost in the

:24:20. > :24:24.quarterfinals but is determined to make up for the disappointment. I

:24:25. > :24:31.definitely think I am full of confidence. I am a lot stronger and

:24:32. > :24:35.I have a four -- I am a far better fighter. I was only a kid then. I

:24:36. > :24:42.did not have the mental strength for it. This time I am super-confident.

:24:43. > :24:47.I am going to win gold. Paddy Barnes will defend his Commonwealth title

:24:48. > :24:53.and the two-time Olympic bronze medallist is out to prove that age

:24:54. > :24:56.is no barrier to success. I act like I am the youngest even though I am

:24:57. > :25:01.the oldest. It is very young and very inexperienced, the team. But

:25:02. > :25:10.the talent is there, there is no doubt about it. We discredit I do

:25:11. > :25:13.our best. Boxing has produced medals for Northern Ireland and there is no

:25:14. > :25:20.reason to think I it will be any different in Glasgow.

:25:21. > :25:26.Andrew White today became Northern Ireland's most capped cricketer of

:25:27. > :25:40.all time, 227 games not out. Quite a record. Cecilia can tell us what we

:25:41. > :25:45.can expect from the weather. You are at Lee Dickson Park?

:25:46. > :25:51.The hottest part of the day may have passed but it is still very warm

:25:52. > :25:55.here. There is still quite a few people wandering between the roses.

:25:56. > :25:59.It is a particularly good show this year. That is not my opinion, I

:26:00. > :26:04.spoke to an expert earlier. The sunshine has brought out the blooms.

:26:05. > :26:08.To keep the life of the Roses going they need some water at the roots.

:26:09. > :26:14.It looks like that will come this weekend. How hot has it been? The

:26:15. > :26:18.hotspot was Castlederg with 27.2 degrees. It is likely that tomorrow

:26:19. > :26:22.will be hotter still. Many people have been cooling down on the north

:26:23. > :26:29.coast, not just because Mark Simpson was there. Some people have been

:26:30. > :26:34.taking a dip at Portstewart. If you fancy coming down to Grows Weak, it

:26:35. > :26:40.continues to the end of the week. Warm sunshine coming over the next

:26:41. > :26:43.couple of days. The shower will sprinkle over the roses and make

:26:44. > :26:48.them look even nicer on Saturday. Getting warm. The temperatures were

:26:49. > :26:54.not fall that much tonight. 15 or 16 degrees will be the low. Maybe the

:26:55. > :26:57.odd shower, but most places dry. Tomorrow the headline is for more

:26:58. > :27:01.hot sunshine. To begin with in the morning there may be some early

:27:02. > :27:05.morning mist a County Down coast. That should bring back quickly.

:27:06. > :27:10.There may also be ploughed in the West with one or two light showers.

:27:11. > :27:16.-- there may also be applied in the West. We can expect lots of very

:27:17. > :27:19.warm sunshine in the day. Temperatures will range from 20

:27:20. > :27:24.degrees on the east coast with the breeze coming off the sea, 226, 27

:27:25. > :27:30.or 28 over parts of Tyrone Londonderry. Those could set off

:27:31. > :27:33.some thundery showers later in the day but there are more likely of

:27:34. > :27:39.clinical. It is a good day for heading to the beach. As someone

:27:40. > :27:44.else told me, only leave footprints behind. The weekend is bringing some

:27:45. > :27:49.showers on Saturday and turning pressure.

:27:50. > :27:54.Thank you very much. Make most of the good weather. That is it from

:27:55. > :27:56.the BBC Newsline team. Good night and thanks for watching.
