A driver competing in the Ulster Rally has been killed | :00:09. | :00:11. | |
20-year-old Timothy Cathcart was from Enniskillen. | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
Our reporter Chris Page is at the rally headquarters at St Angelo. | :00:15. | :00:17. | |
Well, this was the base for the rally drivers and the teams, but | :00:18. | :00:36. | |
tonight he have all packed up and driven away after a very sad | :00:37. | :00:42. | |
evening. The rest of the Ulster Rally has been called off as a mark | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
of respect to Timothy Cathcart. Although all the race attracts | :00:46. | :00:54. | |
drivers from all over, Timothy Cathcart was local. It was during | :00:55. | :01:00. | |
special stage three of this competition near five male tone that | :01:01. | :01:09. | |
this crash happened. -- Fivemiletown. There were no other | :01:10. | :01:16. | |
vehicles involved. His codriver was injured. He was a mac listed by the | :01:17. | :01:23. | |
helicopter -- here lifted -- air lifted. The Ulster Rally is | :01:24. | :01:38. | |
organised by the Northern Ireland Motor Club. They see that there will | :01:39. | :01:43. | |
be an investigation which they will cooperate fully with. Once the | :01:44. | :01:48. | |
police have finished looking into this then there will be another | :01:49. | :01:51. | |
inquiry carried out by the governing body of the sport. They say that the | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
thoughts and prayers of everyone connected with the Ulster Rally I | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
with the family and friends of Timothy Cathcart. -- are with. The | :02:02. | :02:09. | |
role of Co Fermanagh has been stunned by this news. -- the Hall | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
of. The Arts Council has told | :02:14. | :02:15. | |
the groups it funds that they should make plans for cuts of up to 5% of | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
their budgets for this year. As our arts correspondent | :02:19. | :02:21. | |
Maggie Taggart reports, 37 bodies were told that it's the result of | :02:22. | :02:23. | |
?78 million worth of cuts agreed by As the Belfast Circus School has | :02:24. | :02:36. | |
final rehearsals for it August show, the organisers are dealing | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
with unwelcome financial developments. 37 organisations which | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
get the largest annual funding were called to a hastily arranged meeting | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
yesterday. They were told to prepare for cuts of up to 5% by October. We | :02:52. | :02:57. | |
were told to go away and preparing 5% cut to submit the impact of that | :02:58. | :03:04. | |
cut to the Arts Council. For us, that means that we have to break at | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
savings of ?8,000 in the remainder of this financial year and it was a | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
big shock to think that we had the security of a grant being awarded to | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
us back in the end of March and then in August to find out that, no, that | :03:21. | :03:27. | |
is not going to happen. Almost halfway through the financial | :03:28. | :03:30. | |
year organisations like these ones were told to work out how they could | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
save 2.1% of their budgets. They said that the message was not that | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
the cuts were potential but definite. The Arts Council has tried | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
to reassure and says that it will work to mitigate the effect on those | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
that it supplies of funding. That did not come across yesterday, that | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
would be lovely if that was the case, but that did not come across. | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
Wait map or did come across? That this is how it is and that this will | :03:59. | :04:08. | |
get worse. The initial cut for this organisation would be around ?3000. | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
At this point of year it is a big change to our plans for the year. It | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
also means that we will have to look closely at where our key funding | :04:18. | :04:24. | |
will be. The cost is from artist -- for artists come from the Arts | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
Council funding. We have to make changes quickly and we do not have | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
time to find the funding complement it. The Tate a mac Northern Ireland | :04:34. | :04:40. | |

now -- a list of possible savings to be delivered within less than a | :04:57. | :04:57. | |
week. The police have confirmed they are | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
conducting enquiries in to the death of a 22-year-old man at Belfast City | :05:02. | :05:04. | |
Hospital more than a year ago. Sean-Paul Carnahan died five months | :05:05. | :05:07. | |
after he sustained a brain injury The details emerged at a preliminary | :05:08. | :05:10. | |
inquest hearing into his death. Sean-Paul Carnahan was admitted to | :05:11. | :05:29. | |
Belfast City Hospital in March, 2013, after he had tried to take his | :05:30. | :05:36. | |
own life. He had been a regular user of so-called legal highs. He was | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
left brain damaged. Following his death, his mother spoke publicly to | :05:41. | :05:46. | |
warn others of the dangers of taking legal highs. Do not touch that | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
stuff. You would not want to be left the way that my son was left. He was | :05:52. | :05:59. | |
a happy Kent. A brilliant chef. -- are happy child. Always smiling. And | :06:00. | :06:12. | |
fortunately, like most children, he did not realise the danger he | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
brought onto himself. She accuses the hospital was not looking after | :06:17. | :06:24. | |
him properly. They gave up on him. My child died of starvation. I had | :06:25. | :06:27. | |
to watch my child died, waste away in front of my eyes. When my child | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
died he was six foot and he died in front of my eyes. When my child | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
five stone. I am traumatised by that. I thought that when I put my | :06:36. | :06:42. | |
child into their care that he would get better, not basically that he | :06:43. | :06:54. | |
would be starved to death. Mrs Carnahan's solicitor did confirm | :06:55. | :06:58. | |
that she has put in an official complaint about the care given to | :06:59. | :07:04. | |
her son. The coroner queried whether this constituted a charge of | :07:05. | :07:10. | |
corporate manslaughter. There has been agreement that it did. The | :07:11. | :07:16. | |
inquest cannot continue until the PSNI's investigation into the | :07:17. | :07:23. | |
complaint is carried out. The hospital said that it offered its | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
complaint is carried out. The deepest condolences to the family. | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
It also said that it would be inappropriate to make any comment | :07:31. | :07:31. | |
whilst there is an ongoing process. The Catholic Primate Cardinal Sean | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
Brady has confirmed that he offered his resignation to | :07:36. | :07:38. | |
the Pope last month in anticipation During his 18-year period as | :07:39. | :07:40. | |
Archbishop of Armagh he has had to deal with strong criticism of his | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
and the Church's handling of cases The Coadjutor Archbishop, Monsignor | :07:45. | :07:47. | |
Eamon Martin, will become the next Primate of All Ireland when Cardinal | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
Brady's resignation is accepted. The number | :07:52. | :08:00. | |
of new mortgage repossession cases coming before the courts fell to | :08:01. | :08:02. | |
the lowest level since 2007 There were just over 1,600 | :08:03. | :08:04. | |
cases between January and June. That compares to almost 2,000 cases | :08:05. | :08:11. | |
in the same period last year. Belfast City Council has confirmed | :08:12. | :08:18. | |
that an event hosted by George Galloway will take place | :08:19. | :08:20. | |
at the Ulster Hall as scheduled. The council, which owns the | :08:21. | :08:23. | |
Ulster Hall, had taken legal advice after the DUP called for next week's | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
event to be cancelled because of anti-Israeli remarks made | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
recently by Mr Galloway. Now let's have a look | :08:31. | :08:39. | |
at the weather forecast. It has been a reardrive day-to-day. | :08:40. | :08:58. | |
Things Damian McBride, just the odd shower overnight. Temperatures stay | :08:59. | :09:08. | |
in double figures -- things have been Parma. Quite cloudy start of | :09:09. | :09:16. | |
the day on Saturday, the Shermer is starting to work their way in on the | :09:17. | :09:23. | |
westerly breeze. In north -South split. A very different day across | :09:24. | :09:34. | |
England and Wales. For us, we will see those Shermer is coming from the | :09:35. | :09:37. | |
west as they go through the afternoon on Saturday. It should not | :09:38. | :09:43. | |
be enough to disrupt the racing, but it is not what we would expect for | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
the middle of August, with those temperatures topping out at around | :09:48. | :09:53. | |
17 degrees. We will notice these wind gauges starting to pick up, the | :09:54. | :09:59. | |
north-westerly breeze coming in, holding down the temperatures, the | :10:00. | :10:04. | |
showers become much heavier. The temperatures struggling above 14 | :10:05. | :10:10. | |
degrees. A disappointing end to the weekend, next week looks like it | :10:11. | :10:13. | |
will be autumnal. | :10:14. | :10:15. |
