The police should have learned from the mistakes they made, my brother | :00:49. | :01:03. | |
would still be alive. Join me here live at Solitude for the top of the | :01:04. | :01:05. | |
table clash. A witness has told the Inquiry | :01:06. | :01:07. | |
into Historical Institutional Abuse that she cried for weeks | :01:08. | :01:16. | |
after she was told she was being The inquiry, which is being held | :01:17. | :01:18. | |
in Banbridge, has been hearing from witnesses, some of whom were | :01:19. | :01:23. | |
part of the migration scheme without Many were already being abused | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
at institutions in Northern Ireland This was the first time the enquiry | :01:27. | :01:45. | |
heard from witnesses who were shipped off to Australia. 130 | :01:46. | :01:51. | |
vulnerable children. Those who did not want to appear submitted | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
statements. Some -- in person, others by video link from | :01:58. | :02:03. | |
Australia. Des McDaid was born in Donegall Street 1953. He was sent to | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
Australia, not knowing where he was going. It was never asked if he | :02:10. | :02:15. | |
wanted to go. He was only eight years old and he arrived in | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
Australia. Giving evidence from Australia, he spoke with confidence. | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
He set his memory was very good. He said he remembered being thrown in | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
the air and that feeling of helplessness when you know you were | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
going to head the ground after being thrown in the air. He said he was | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
abused as some of the Christian Brothers, by some older boys and the | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
late reacher. A similar picture from other witnesses is emerging. One | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
person said he was two years old when he was placed in care after his | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
mother died in childbirth. Separated from his siblings, he did not know | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
somewhere in the same home until years later. One young girl cried | :02:55. | :03:00. | |
for weeks after she was told she was going to Australia. Another told | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
about being shipped against families wishes. Des McDaid spoke of reading | :03:06. | :03:10. | |
his mother after years of trying to track down. Forgive me, forgive me, | :03:11. | :03:18. | |
forgive me his mother said when they met. The enquiry will hear from 50 | :03:19. | :03:20. | |
witnesses over a three-week period. A 91-year-old man has died after his | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
neighbour's oil tank went on fire. The blaze broke out | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
at a property off the Hillsborough These pictures taken by neighbours | :03:28. | :03:44. | |
show the full force of the fire this morning. Samuel Carson was a | :03:45. | :03:46. | |
great-grandfather who lived alone, but maintained an act broke in the | :03:47. | :03:51. | |
community. A neighbour of his told me that at one o'clock this morning | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
she heard five small explosions coming from the property. Fire | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
Service responded to a call of an oil tank having caught fire at a | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
nearby house. The fire spread to another oil tank, and that caused | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
Samuel Carson's house to go up in flames. I have spoken to one of his | :04:11. | :04:19. | |
daughters this morning. She was here during the night. There will come a | :04:20. | :04:26. | |
day when he will be taken away from us, but to go in this way, they are | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
just processing, that will be the challenging thing. Friends and | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
neighbours have been quick to pay tribute to him. He was described as | :04:36. | :04:42. | |
a friend to the community. He had lots and lots of friends, people | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
calling them every day to see how he was. Lots of friends. Because of the | :04:49. | :04:53. | |
fire is under investigation. The police said it leave there were any | :04:54. | :05:03. | |
circumstances. -- said they don't believe there were any suspicious | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
circumstances. Eight police officers, | :05:09. | :05:09. | |
including two Inspectors, three Sergeants and three Constables have | :05:10. | :05:11. | |
been disciplined over unacceptable and significant failures | :05:12. | :05:13. | |
in their search for a missing man He later died after walking | :05:14. | :05:15. | |
in front of a train. Jonathan McGee went missing on a | :05:16. | :05:24. | |
Friday and was found dead on the Saturday. The ombudsman's reporting | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
to hide the police handled his case was skipping. His family say it will | :05:31. | :05:38. | |
ring him back. The police should have learnt from their first | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
mistakes that they made, if they did he would still be here. If they had | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
done their job is right. The family of the missing mild had contacted | :05:49. | :05:51. | |
the police days before his death, stressing their concern for his | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
safety because he suffered from depression and had tablets in his | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
possession. The ombudsman pointed up a number of missed opportunities and | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
failure to pass on information about the missing mild. It was a series of | :06:05. | :06:13. | |
incremental failure is. Information was not passed it should've been. | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
There was a failure in communication handling from one officer to | :06:19. | :06:23. | |
another. Steps were not followed through properly. There was a whole | :06:24. | :06:25. | |
series of things that meant the police did not take the act steps | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
they could have done. Jonathan McGee's life ended here at this | :06:30. | :06:37. | |
bridge on the outskirts of Lisbon. The ombudsman hopes that his | :06:38. | :06:39. | |
recommendations will help prevent situations like this arriving again. | :06:40. | :06:47. | |
The Police Ombudsman has ended unprecedented legal action | :06:48. | :06:48. | |
Michael Maguire had taken the PSNI to court after accusing it | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
of obstructing investigations into allegations against police | :06:53. | :06:54. | |
But the police have now agreed to give him access to sensitive | :06:55. | :06:58. | |
Our Home Affairs correspondent, Vincent Kearney, reports. | :06:59. | :07:11. | |
The UDF murders of six Catholics as they watched the World Cup in 20 | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
years ago is one of the cases that prompted this legal action. The | :07:18. | :07:21. | |
killers have never been caught. It has been claimed that the police did | :07:22. | :07:26. | |
not conduct a full investigation into the shooting because they were | :07:27. | :07:30. | |
protecting an informer, and that there was collusion between some | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
officers and the killers. Similar claims were made about the police | :07:35. | :07:40. | |
investigation into the murder of officer John Lorimer. He was off | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
duty and working in this ice cream shop in the Lisburn Road when | :07:46. | :07:48. | |
killers struck in 1988. His son, Gavin, has claimed that no one was | :07:49. | :07:56. | |
convicted because at least one IRA informer was involved. The ombudsman | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
accused Matt Baggott of making it impossible for his officers to | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
investigate those claims and other serious allegations of criminal | :08:06. | :08:08. | |
activity and misconduct by police officers. Answering those questions | :08:09. | :08:15. | |
requires access to a range of intelligence. I need access to that | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
to be able to look at those allegations. The ombudsman's office | :08:22. | :08:26. | |
does not investigations by negotiation. When the case went to | :08:27. | :08:33. | |
court in June, the judge urged both sides to come to an agreement to | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
avoid a full hearing. The dispute has now been resolved. In a | :08:39. | :08:41. | |
statement the ombudsman said the police has now accepted that his | :08:42. | :08:46. | |
office has a legal right to seek any material it wishes during an | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
investigation. It said the information the police had refused | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
to give access to has not been made available. The policing board has | :08:56. | :08:57. | |
welcomed the end of the dispute. We're live at Solitude ahead | :08:58. | :08:59. | |
of a full programme of Getting children interested | :09:00. | :09:04. | |
in school can be an uphill struggle for parents and | :09:05. | :09:13. | |
teachers alike, but one community has come up with a new plan to raise | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
standards and encourage learning. There have been many attempts | :09:17. | :09:19. | |
on the Shankill Road in the past, but those behind this scheme hope | :09:20. | :09:22. | |
it will change school life Our education correspondent, Maggie | :09:23. | :09:25. | |
Taggart, has this exclusive report. This family are making schooling at | :09:26. | :09:48. | |
priority for their children and while Clare did a university degree, | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
her husband left school with no exams. I could not wait to get out | :09:53. | :09:57. | |
of secondary school. We went encouraged to do exams or anything | :09:58. | :10:02. | |
then. It was a case that you did your five years and you left. Maybe | :10:03. | :10:11. | |
there are other things that are seen to be more important and education | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
can get moved to the side. Nobody is in any doubt that the problems of | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
the Shankill have been complex and there have been multiple initiatives | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
to try to solve them. This is a 20 year plan, trying to right the | :10:25. | :10:30. | |
wrongs of 40 years of history. Actors spelt out the problems on the | :10:31. | :10:35. | |
Shankill. He does not go to school, he runs around all night long | :10:36. | :10:45. | |
drinking. Are you not going to school? I go to school sometimes. | :10:46. | :10:53. | |
There have been many action plans in the past. Community workers point to | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
22 initiatives in 20 years, but say they were short term and the results | :10:59. | :11:04. | |
are short lived. And you children soon will last for 20 years and the | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
plan is that all government departments and cumulative groups | :11:09. | :11:12. | |
will work together. What it will devise in the context of this zone | :11:13. | :11:25. | |
is that it will provide wraparound support for every child on the | :11:26. | :11:31. | |
Shankill. A former Shankill boy is now a night of the realm and fully | :11:32. | :11:37. | |
backs this zone. We need a framework to pull everything together. One of | :11:38. | :11:45. | |
the difficulties it is that it is like a box of firework is. If you | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
like all of the same time it will be M My children will be well | :11:51. | :11:56. | |
educated. They will be taken to school every morning. The people | :11:57. | :12:05. | |
behind this say they are not asking for money, but for people to pull | :12:06. | :12:12. | |
out all the stops to support this generation long project. | :12:13. | :12:13. | |
The Northern Ireland Audit Office is to investigate what progress has | :12:14. | :12:16. | |
been made implementing the health plan 'Transforming Your Care'. | :12:17. | :12:18. | |
The news emerged following a meeting between auditors | :12:19. | :12:20. | |
and the SDLP's Fearghal McKinney, who has called for greater | :12:21. | :12:23. | |
interrogation of how the Department of Health is spending its budget. | :12:24. | :12:25. | |
There's been much criticism among the health sector that the changes | :12:26. | :12:28. | |
promised under Transforming Your Care have failed to materialise. | :12:29. | :12:30. | |
But now that level of scrutiny has stepped up a gear | :12:31. | :12:33. | |
with the Audit Office confirming it's to scrutinise what progress has | :12:34. | :12:35. | |
been made and what targets, if any, were set to measure performance. | :12:36. | :12:49. | |
For too long we have been asking questions are not getting the proper | :12:50. | :12:56. | |
answers around Transforming Your Care. We have not been able to see | :12:57. | :13:02. | |
targets, implementation plans, no measurement for proper outcomes, yet | :13:03. | :13:06. | |
we or three years into the plan which is meant to take five years. | :13:07. | :13:11. | |
It is costing lots of money. We believe it is leading to the logjams | :13:12. | :13:15. | |
in the health service, which again promotes the health service to spend | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
millions patching up these difficulties. | :13:21. | :13:21. | |
Pastor James McConnell has announced he is stepping down. | :13:22. | :13:23. | |
The cleric, from the Whitewell Metropolitan Tabernacle, caused | :13:24. | :13:25. | |
controversy recently when he called Islam 'heathen' and 'satanic'. | :13:26. | :13:27. | |
Pastor McConnell told his congregation that, after 57 | :13:28. | :13:29. | |
years of ministry, he felt the hour had come to hand over the reins. | :13:30. | :13:33. | |
The 77-year-old has recently suffered from ill health. | :13:34. | :13:44. | |
A doctor has appeared in court accused of sexually | :13:45. | :13:46. | |
It's claimed the offences took place at Richhill Health Centre | :13:47. | :13:49. | |
Our reporter Claire Savage was at this morning's hearing at | :13:50. | :13:52. | |
Dr Tony Chee, who lives in Moira, faces seven charges of touching six | :13:53. | :14:10. | |
women in a sexual nature out of Richhill Health Centre over a | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
three-year period. Dr Tony Chee, he is 45, appeared in the dock and | :14:16. | :14:20. | |
spoke to confirm his year of birth and nodded to his show he understood | :14:21. | :14:27. | |
the charges. The investigating officer told the court she believed | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
she could connect Dr Tony Chee to the charges. He was granted bail at | :14:32. | :14:37. | |
?1000 as long as he did not try to contact any of the women making the | :14:38. | :14:41. | |
complaints were treated any female patients. The district judge said Dr | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
Tony Chee was free to leave as long as he obeyed the conditions of his | :14:48. | :14:51. | |
bail. He will appear in court again in six weeks on 14 V berth. -- on | :14:52. | :14:58. | |
the 14th of October. Money for the poorest students | :14:59. | :15:01. | |
in Further Education has been cut The Department of Employment | :15:02. | :15:03. | |
and Learning, which supplies the money, says | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
they've invested in other schemes. But some colleges say they've even | :15:07. | :15:08. | |
had to open food banks for students Joining me now from Foyle is | :15:09. | :15:11. | |
Willie O'Donnell, from the You actually got extra money this | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
year - how does The north-west is a very deprived | :15:16. | :15:35. | |
area. We have students who come here from all parts of the North, and the | :15:36. | :15:42. | |
site. We have a situation where students are in need. Before the | :15:43. | :15:48. | |
cuts, we had a new initiative going, which was a student welfare | :15:49. | :15:55. | |
supply system. This happened through the generosity of staff members who | :15:56. | :15:58. | |
brought in nonperishable foods that we give to the students who were | :15:59. | :16:03. | |
finding things tough. Cuts have happened all over, but we knowledge | :16:04. | :16:15. | |
the fact that we have ?75,000 more this year as regard our hardship | :16:16. | :16:20. | |
front. How many students are you talking about? The demand last term | :16:21. | :16:26. | |
was 25 students who were in need. We have been working on the coal face | :16:27. | :16:31. | |
with the students, able to detect that these students were in need. It | :16:32. | :16:38. | |
wasn't just food, there were other issues, but when talking to them we | :16:39. | :16:42. | |
realised that there was great hardship for them. How do you | :16:43. | :16:48. | |
overcome the cynicism that some people have that students appear to | :16:49. | :16:51. | |
have money for other things, like socialising? I think it is a myth | :16:52. | :16:57. | |
but a lot of people. The college here is a very caring college. The | :16:58. | :17:04. | |
staff here are very generous and students are not always puts in the | :17:05. | :17:11. | |
front light. Things are obscured a little bit when it comes to | :17:12. | :17:13. | |
students. They are in great hardship. The college is a second | :17:14. | :17:19. | |
chance for many students and they come here to grab the opportunity | :17:20. | :17:24. | |
they have given. With the support, particularly of student services, we | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
have a lot of support for the students here. We have put together | :17:29. | :17:34. | |
this initiative, long before the cuts, that would help our students | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
in little ways to survive while they are here in the city and coming to | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
the college. Samuel Beckett is one | :17:43. | :17:44. | |
of our best-known writers. He's celebrated with | :17:45. | :17:46. | |
an annual two-week festival in Enniskillen, but is his work | :17:47. | :17:48. | |
accessible to a younger generation? One woman who thinks it crosses | :17:49. | :17:50. | |
the generations is starring in a trilogy of his plays at the MAC | :17:51. | :17:53. | |
in Belfast this week. 'Not I, Rockabye' and 'Footfalls' is | :17:54. | :17:56. | |
fresh from a run in London's West End and requires its star to undergo | :17:57. | :17:59. | |
quite a transformation to get I first opened up this play and I | :18:00. | :18:31. | |
expected the kind of people who were big fans of Samuel Beckett. It | :18:32. | :18:36. | |
wasn't the case. We were blown away by how young the audiences where, | :18:37. | :18:40. | |
people with no relationship with Samuel Beckett. | :18:41. | :18:43. | |
There's a full programme of Irish Premiership football tonight | :18:44. | :18:45. | |
and Stephen Watson joins us from, arguably, the pick of the games. | :18:46. | :18:52. | |
Here at Solitude, the champions, Cliftonville, take on Linfield. | :18:53. | :18:54. | |
Cliftonville, the league leaders, are just one point ahead. | :18:55. | :18:59. | |
I'm joined by Cliftonville manager Tommy Breslin, whose team has picked | :19:00. | :19:02. | |
We have made a very good start. We are hoping to improve our home | :19:03. | :19:26. | |
form. It should be a good game, there is a big cloud coming. Your | :19:27. | :19:33. | |
star striker has gone to pastures new, but that hasn't affected your | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
goal scoring. Ten goals in four games. Players come and go, that is | :19:38. | :19:45. | |
just the ball. Liam has gone to pastures new. We are delighted for | :19:46. | :19:55. | |
them. The ball goes on. How are you and the players approaching this | :19:56. | :19:59. | |
season knowing you can be the first Cliftonville side ever to wind the | :20:00. | :20:04. | |
league three times in a row? We are not even thinking about that. We | :20:05. | :20:13. | |
will take as many games as we can, C how many we can wind and if we wind | :20:14. | :20:17. | |
the league, we will take that. We are just looking forward to | :20:18. | :20:22. | |
tonight. What do you make of this Linfield teen? New manager, of | :20:23. | :20:27. | |
course. It is strange. David was such an institution but Warren has | :20:28. | :20:37. | |
come in and put his mark on it. Lots of different players, young players. | :20:38. | :20:43. | |
They can do as well as they like, as long as they don't do it tonight! | :20:44. | :20:49. | |
As well as the local football, Northern Ireland start their | :20:50. | :20:54. | |
European Championship campaign, Ulster's rugby players kick | :20:55. | :20:55. | |
off a new season and there's world championship boxing in Belfast. | :20:56. | :21:05. | |
Carl Frampton fights Kiko Martinez for a world title in the | :21:06. | :21:08. | |
BBC Sport has been given special access to Frampton in training, | :21:09. | :21:11. | |
Working hard to join the boxing greats. The title dream that has | :21:12. | :21:30. | |
been Carl Frampton's focus is within his grasp. It is an understatement | :21:31. | :21:35. | |
to say I am looking forward to it. It has been a long time coming, not | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
just the world title but to get it at home. I just need to showcase my | :21:41. | :21:48. | |
talent. I am getting a chance to do it. This fight is going worldwide, | :21:49. | :21:55. | |
if is going to be sure and in China, Brazil, America. The mild with the | :21:56. | :22:01. | |
belt has lost a Carl Frampton once before, but remains dangerous. You | :22:02. | :22:06. | |
always get entertained. He comes at you. He can take a good shot, as | :22:07. | :22:15. | |
well. We work done similar things we did last time. The pressure is on | :22:16. | :22:19. | |
Carl Frampton because he has at home. Everybody is expecting him to | :22:20. | :22:24. | |
knock him out and wind the world title. It is not done yet. If there | :22:25. | :22:43. | |
is anybody who can do it, he can. As a manager, as opposed to being a | :22:44. | :22:48. | |
fighter, I am sitting on the safe side of the ropes, but it is much | :22:49. | :22:52. | |
more nerve wracking. When I was fighting at least they have control | :22:53. | :22:57. | |
of things. As a manager, when you are watching, you don't have the | :22:58. | :23:04. | |
same level of control. It is more nerve wracking. I believe I am a | :23:05. | :23:09. | |
better fighter than when a timber first time. I think he is better as | :23:10. | :23:14. | |
well. I have improved leaps and bounds. I will not make the same | :23:15. | :23:20. | |
mistakes again. It will not be an easy fight, but I will wind. I have | :23:21. | :23:25. | |
that power to take any super-bantamweight in the world | :23:26. | :23:30. | |
hides, but also I have the engine to go 12 rounds. All I will predict is | :23:31. | :23:31. | |
a wind. Rory McIlroy was unable to find his | :23:32. | :23:42. | |
best form in the final round of the Deutschebank Championship near | :23:43. | :23:49. | |
Boston. A final round of 70 left him at 11-under par, which meant he | :23:50. | :23:52. | |
finished in a tie for fifth place overall, four shots behind the | :23:53. | :23:55. | |
winner - Chris Kirk of the United States. McIlroy lies in second place | :23:56. | :23:58. | |
in the Fedex Cup standings. The overall winner in a fortnight's time | :23:59. | :24:00. | |
will win $10 million. McIlroy and Graeme McDowell both | :24:01. | :24:06. | |
automatically qualified for the European Ryder Cup team. Today, | :24:07. | :24:08. | |
captain Paul McGinley revealed the three remaining players to make up | :24:09. | :24:10. | |
his team to take on the US at Gleneagles. He picked Ian Poulter, | :24:11. | :24:17. | |
Lee Westwood and Scotland's Stephen Gallacher. That means no place for | :24:18. | :24:20. | |
former world number one Luke Donald. He has been an incredible performer | :24:21. | :24:36. | |
over the years. His record in the Ryder Cup is outstanding. He will go | :24:37. | :24:41. | |
on to make many more appearances at the Ryder Cup. He said, you know, I | :24:42. | :24:53. | |
back you to be the captain, even though you have not picked me, I | :24:54. | :24:56. | |
still believe you will be a great them. His last two words were, in go | :24:57. | :25:04. | |
Europe! I think that says a lot about him. | :25:05. | :25:04. | |
Just a reminder that there is live coverage on Radio Ulster Medium Wave | :25:05. | :25:07. | |
We'll have highlights of the action on our later bulletin | :25:08. | :25:11. | |
We have a big area of high pressure sitting over us at the moment. This | :25:12. | :25:34. | |
evening, it will be cloudy. It will stay dry. Overnight temperatures at | :25:35. | :25:43. | |
ten or 11 degrees. One or two pockets of fog or a mist form | :25:44. | :25:47. | |
overnight, but they will not last long tomorrow morning. Tomorrow, | :25:48. | :25:53. | |
would be much like today. Cloudy with some sunny spells. To begin | :25:54. | :26:01. | |
with, there will be a fair amount of cloud, breaking up of times allowing | :26:02. | :26:06. | |
some morning sunshine. That will come and go through the afternoon. | :26:07. | :26:12. | |
The winds will be like. We get the sunshine, will be warm. In the sun, | :26:13. | :26:23. | |
we could see even 22 degrees. Under the cloud, 17 or eight team degrees. | :26:24. | :26:30. | |
Over Britain, there will be cloud around in all places, but it will | :26:31. | :26:37. | |
break up in some areas, reaching potentially 24 degrees in London. | :26:38. | :26:41. | |
Temperatures not bad across the board. The wind will stay light into | :26:42. | :26:55. | |
tomorrow evening, and it will stay dry. Not much will change from | :26:56. | :27:00. | |
weapons the into Thursday. Another mild night tomorrow. Into Thursday, | :27:01. | :27:12. | |
the high-pressure world remain in control. Much the same. It is a bit | :27:13. | :27:18. | |
like groundhog day! Cloud, but it will brighten up at times. 21 | :27:19. | :27:24. | |
degrees will be the hive. Those temperatures are about 5 degrees | :27:25. | :27:28. | |
above average for the time of year. For the weekend, the high-pressure | :27:29. | :27:32. | |
will stay in control, so it will be settled for the weekend. | :27:33. | :27:34. | |
