:00:33. > :00:40.Our the man's name has not been released but he is 33 and from
:00:41. > :00:50.Derry. He voluntarily turned up at a police station. The charges arise
:00:51. > :00:57.from the discovery last Saturday of 35 men, women and children in a
:00:58. > :01:00.shipping container from Belgium. They are all from Afghanistan and
:01:01. > :01:09.are believed to be the victims of a people trafficking operation. One

:01:21. > :01:26.and he was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter and facilitating

:02:23. > :02:35.Editor John Campbell reports. It is a substantial business and
:02:36. > :02:39.does work for the NHS. It is a way for the health service to keep
:02:40. > :02:45.waiting lists under control by contracting out work. By the start
:02:46. > :02:52.of July the pause button was pressed because of budgetary initiatives.
:02:53. > :02:59.There is still a lot of work which has been done for the NHS. It is
:03:00. > :03:04.said because of this move it cannot keep the same number of staff and is
:03:05. > :03:20.expected to lose 50 jobs from a total workforce of 240.
:03:21. > :03:23.A coroner has criticised a local hospital for mistakes which led to

:03:46. > :03:48.A security alert in Londonderry has ended and been declared a hoax.
:03:49. > :03:51.It began when masked men placed an object in the back
:03:52. > :03:54.of a lorry and told the driver to go to Strand Road Police station.
:03:55. > :03:56.Police have condemned those responsible and said,
:03:57. > :03:59.it was a frightening experience for a man going about his work.
:04:00. > :04:19.The alert began after a lorry was hijacked. An object was loaded onto
:04:20. > :04:31.a beagle and the driver was ordered to take it to Strand Road police
:04:32. > :04:36.station. -- onto the vehicle. I can only imagine the driver was
:04:37. > :04:40.extremely frightened and terrified as any individual would be and I
:04:41. > :04:49.condemn those who put him in that position. The driver of the vehicle
:04:50. > :04:57.parked the van at a school not far from here. Staff were asked by
:04:58. > :05:01.police to leave the building. The children were due to get exam
:05:02. > :05:06.results, we are we are we had the lot of people in the school so it
:05:07. > :05:12.has caused huge disruption. People were also used -- moved from
:05:13. > :05:21.business units in a nearby industrial estate. Communication was
:05:22. > :05:27.very poor as to what was going on. It was so close to us we were very
:05:28. > :05:34.concerned. Customers could not make it in, it caused disruption. Police
:05:35. > :05:43.and local people have condemned those behind the hijacking.
:05:44. > :05:46.There's been a significant increase in the number of people contacting
:05:47. > :05:48.Northern Ireland's main helpline for people at risk of suicide.
:05:49. > :05:50.Calls to the Lifeline crisis response service
:05:51. > :05:53.have increased by almost a third in the last three years.
:05:54. > :05:55.They've gone up to 1,500 calls per week.
:05:56. > :06:01.It's a big challenge for a charity which isn't getting any more money.
:06:02. > :06:07.We are upping the amount of stuff on the service and through the night
:06:08. > :06:15.they are moving from three councillors to four councillors and
:06:16. > :06:17.we believe that would bring us as close to 100% call cancer rate as
:06:18. > :06:24.possible at this time. House prices here are continuing to
:06:25. > :06:26.rise and the number It's being seen
:06:27. > :06:30.as evidence that the market is Here's our business
:06:31. > :06:51.correspondent Julian O'Neill. A typical detached house now costs
:06:52. > :06:59.162,000 pounds, the average semi is ?104,000. Terrorist act 72,000 while
:07:00. > :07:05.apartments are worth 84,000. Prices are back at 2005 levels still only
:07:06. > :07:15.around half of what they were when the market peaked in late 2007. This
:07:16. > :07:22.is now a much more active market. The finance minister said in a
:07:23. > :07:28.statement that there were clear signs that the market is
:07:29. > :07:34.stabilising. Growth at a steady pace is considered ideal for the economy.
:07:35. > :07:41.We do not want a boom and bust situation like me hard. A gradual
:07:42. > :07:46.rise brings stability, confidence and ultimately that is what the
:07:47. > :07:53.economists want, what your viewers want and what businesses want. The
:07:54. > :08:00.last time prices fell was 2012 and recent figures represent the
:08:01. > :08:10.strongest growth for years. The improvement is most pronounced in
:08:11. > :08:15.Belfast and its surrounding areas. Tomorrow morning we hear why a legal
:08:16. > :08:22.loophole means the prosecution cannot apply for stronger services
:08:23. > :08:25.to be given out to men convicted of animal cruelty earlier this year.
:08:26. > :08:41.It was a really cold night last night but it should not be so bad
:08:42. > :08:49.tonight. Cloud filling in bringing some showery conditions.
:08:50. > :08:54.Temperatures will be eight or 9 degrees overnight. A cold and cloudy
:08:55. > :09:01.day tomorrow with plenty showers around. It is all down to this
:09:02. > :09:08.frontal system sinking slowly southwards throughout the day. A wet
:09:09. > :09:11.start throughout the morning and that is reflected across Scotland
:09:12. > :09:17.and northern England as we go through the day. The wind will pick
:09:18. > :09:23.up behind quipping around the wall pressure. Much warmer, drier and
:09:24. > :09:28.brighter across the south-east in particular. Things do pick up as we
:09:29. > :09:32.go through the afternoon. Showers sinking south and a few more bright
:09:33. > :09:42.spells. Temperatures struggling to feel much above 15 Celsius. On
:09:43. > :09:49.Friday, another day of sunshine and showers but rather more sunshine I
:09:50. > :09:54.would think. Again not having a huge impact on temperatures, high is
:09:55. > :10:02.around 14 degrees. Fewer showers by the weekend but not very warm for
:10:03. > :10:04.the time of year. That is all from us for now. Good night.
