:00:16. > :00:20.the private funeral of a very public figure as

:00:21. > :00:27.A row over the appointment of a new Deputy Chief Constable.

:00:28. > :00:34.Anger as an Orange hall is burned down for a second time.

:00:35. > :00:44.We hear from one of the victims of the child migrant scheme.

:00:45. > :00:48.Injury was and coaching and certainty that the players message

:00:49. > :00:53.is keep calm. All the latest from the Ulster Rugby camp.

:00:54. > :00:56.The dry weather may still be with us but it's still looking a bit grey

:00:57. > :01:04.Ian Paisley, the man who lived his life in

:01:05. > :01:08.the public eye, was today buried in a quiet County Down churchyard far

:01:09. > :01:13.While his funeral, attended only by close family

:01:14. > :01:16.members, was taking place, those who knew him and those who

:01:17. > :01:35.As Ian Paisley's funeral cortege travelled through the streets, in

:01:36. > :01:39.another part of east Belfast, MLAs gathered Beach to him. The image of

:01:40. > :01:43.the former First Minister was centre stage at Stormont. Inside the

:01:44. > :01:50.chamber, his successor led the tributes. As a leader of men, a

:01:51. > :01:54.friend of the people, a servant of the state and the undisputed leader

:01:55. > :02:02.of unionism, in Paisley outclassed all around him. Ulster will never

:02:03. > :02:08.see the light of him again. The Deputy First Minister recalled his

:02:09. > :02:15.memories. We genuinely grew to like each other and in doing so, we

:02:16. > :02:23.confounded the world. I think that was a good thing. He certainly made

:02:24. > :02:28.a huge effort. One of the first conversations we had together, he

:02:29. > :02:31.said to me, we can rule ourselves, we don't need these other people

:02:32. > :02:36.coming from England telling us what to do. Others spoke of their

:02:37. > :02:43.encounters with the former DUP politician. My personal relationship

:02:44. > :02:46.with Ian Paisley was more centred on my days as a journalist, than a

:02:47. > :02:53.politician, and I have to say, interviewing in Paisley was always

:02:54. > :02:57.something of an event. If you had not been admonished by Ian Paisley,

:02:58. > :03:02.you could not consider yourself a proper journalist. There were

:03:03. > :03:07.expressions of sympathy to the Paisley family from the SDLP leader

:03:08. > :03:14.and the Alliance leader. One MLA talked about his differences with

:03:15. > :03:28.Ian Paisley. It is an abiding regret for me that after his decades of

:03:29. > :03:35.principled stand, his legacy in this house is terrorists in government.

:03:36. > :03:37.And a system not fit for purpose. After the tributes, MLAs signed a

:03:38. > :03:44.book of condolence in the great Hall. Stormont was part and parcel

:03:45. > :03:48.of Ian Paisley's life and in Paisley was part of the history and fabric

:03:49. > :03:53.of this building so it was only appropriate that MLAs came here to

:03:54. > :03:54.pay tribute to his life and Legacy, the very place where power sharing

:03:55. > :04:00.began with Sinn Fein. Public books of condolence have been

:04:01. > :04:03.opened in Londonderry and Ballymena. At Belfast City Hall,

:04:04. > :04:19.one of those who signed was the In honour and memory, a flag at

:04:20. > :04:22.half-mast and as Ian Paisley was laid to rest at a private family

:04:23. > :04:28.ceremony, people came to pay their respects publicly. Lord Mayor of

:04:29. > :04:33.Belfast was the first to sign the book at the City Hall. Doctor

:04:34. > :04:37.Paisley was certainly a large character in our world of politics

:04:38. > :04:41.and he certainly underwent a long political journal which is

:04:42. > :04:43.reflective of Ira peace process so it is important people have the

:04:44. > :04:50.opportunity to express their sympathy. Among the tributes, at

:04:51. > :04:53.message in Irish from the Sinn Fein President, my heartfelt condolences

:04:54. > :04:58.to you, Eileen, and your family. Some people might used at he and

:04:59. > :05:01.Martin McGuinness showed they can have a good working relationship and

:05:02. > :05:08.could end up eating friends with former enemies so I think we need to

:05:09. > :05:14.see more of that. He was a real character, he took time for anybody

:05:15. > :05:20.and he was a man of God that preached the world. I wrote that he

:05:21. > :05:27.was a godly man and a true statesman. I have never known him to

:05:28. > :05:31.tell a lie. He was one man you could depend on. Books of condolence were

:05:32. > :05:35.opened in town halls and Civic Centre is across Northern Ireland

:05:36. > :05:40.the weekend and other today has been about privacy and mourning for the

:05:41. > :05:42.family, friends and supporters say they are glad to have had the chance

:05:43. > :05:48.The private nature of Ian Paisley's funeral was surprising for some.

:05:49. > :05:53.BBC Newsline's Mark Simpson has been speaking to the only person outside

:05:54. > :05:57.the immediate family circle who was present and contrasting today's

:05:58. > :06:05.service with the funerals of other Unionist leaders.

:06:06. > :06:11.It is a side of Ian Paisley which were sometimes lost it on the

:06:12. > :06:18.politics and the protests. Paisley, the fiercely loyal family man. Come

:06:19. > :06:22.on, grandchildren expect the family have rarely been out of the public

:06:23. > :06:27.eye but together they decided today is a final farewell should be

:06:28. > :06:31.private. The funeral could hardly have been more low-key. A family

:06:32. > :06:36.service at the home in East Belfast. Followed by a private burial. One of

:06:37. > :06:43.the few people outside the family who was there was David McIlveen.

:06:44. > :06:47.This was a very preferable decision and I believe that was the right

:06:48. > :06:50.decision. I think it reflects something of the humility of the

:06:51. > :06:55.family in that they wanted to express their grief outside their

:06:56. > :07:00.public observation and that is exactly how it has turned out to be.

:07:01. > :07:05.In Paisley's followed in recent years with senior members of the DUP

:07:06. > :07:09.and the free Presbyterian Church that also have been factors in

:07:10. > :07:12.today's low-key approach. Whatever the reasons, his final journey was

:07:13. > :07:21.very different to that of his political hero, Edward Carson. His

:07:22. > :07:24.funeral was very public. Among the pallbearers is the Prime Minister

:07:25. > :07:31.and the widow and her son look behind the coffin. You had the

:07:32. > :07:37.judiciary, representatives of the police, but the specials, it was a

:07:38. > :07:40.grand public affair. Filing up the steps of Saint and Cathedral.

:07:41. > :07:46.Compare that to the quiet and private mystic ceremony today. There

:07:47. > :07:50.is a massive contrast. He never said exactly how he wanted to be

:07:51. > :07:55.remembered but when he stood down at Stormont, he did reflect on his

:07:56. > :08:01.career. I have had a good innings, I made good friends and I have

:08:02. > :08:06.reconciled a lot of enemies. His family say they will be a public

:08:07. > :08:07.opportunity to pay tribute to Ian Paisley at a memorial service in the

:08:08. > :08:17.coming weeks. A major row has erupted on the

:08:18. > :08:20.Policing Board over the appointment of a new Deputy Chief Constable. The

:08:21. > :08:24.board has handed the name of its preferred candidate to the justice

:08:25. > :08:31.minister but earlier, Sinn Fein walked out of the recruitment

:08:32. > :08:39.process. What is the background? Two people were interviewed for this job

:08:40. > :08:43.and they had their first interviews last week. The scores were so close

:08:44. > :08:48.that second and reviews had to take place this morning. What is the

:08:49. > :08:51.problem? Just before the second interviews, Sinn Fein's

:08:52. > :08:56.representative announced she was withdrawing from the process. She

:08:57. > :08:59.said she believed the process might have been compromised and believed

:09:00. > :09:06.the best course of action was to have a fresh recruitment process.

:09:07. > :09:09.Objections, the process went ahead and a preferred candidate was

:09:10. > :09:13.identified. Officials from the Policing Board went to Stormont this

:09:14. > :09:17.afternoon and they met the justice minister because legally, he has two

:09:18. > :09:21.approve the appointment. I fully expected a statement a short time

:09:22. > :09:25.ago confirming an appointment had been made. Instead of that, I

:09:26. > :09:29.received a statement from the board saying a recommendation had been

:09:30. > :09:33.made to the Minister for him to consider. Policing Board members are

:09:34. > :09:39.surprised by this delay and Sinn Fein insists this is about process.

:09:40. > :09:44.Others insist it is about personalities and they point out

:09:45. > :09:48.that one of the candidates, Drew Harris, sanctioned the arrest of

:09:49. > :09:51.Sinn Fein leader Gerry Adams earlier this year. Their suggestion is that

:09:52. > :09:54.Sinn Fein doesn't want to be part of any process that could lead to him

:09:55. > :09:59.being appointed Deputy Chief Constable. Sinn Fein say they will

:10:00. > :10:02.not comment on this issue at this stage.

:10:03. > :10:05.Members of an Orange Lodge in County Donegal say they are angry

:10:06. > :10:08.and dismayed that a local hall has been destroyed in an arson attack.

:10:09. > :10:11.Newtowncunningham Orange Hall was targeted yesterday morning.

:10:12. > :10:19.The repair bill could run to around ?300,000.

:10:20. > :10:24.The fire was discovered in the Orange Hall on Main Street in

:10:25. > :10:29.Newtowncunningham just before 8:00 yesterday morning. It is not the

:10:30. > :10:34.side door was forced open and a fire was started just inside. A forensic

:10:35. > :10:40.team carried out a detailed analysis before briefing lodge members. This

:10:41. > :10:46.has been a deliberate act of arson. We have been targeted and we are

:10:47. > :10:53.devastated. As a very small minority community here, that we have been

:10:54. > :10:56.targeted after all the acts of friendship and openness we have

:10:57. > :11:00.extended to the wider community. It is hoped a brass plaque which

:11:01. > :11:04.commemorates the 37 lodge members who served in the First World War it

:11:05. > :11:09.can be salvaged. There are 33 members in the knowledge here and

:11:10. > :11:13.around 20 in the accordion band. But the moment, there is anger and

:11:14. > :11:16.dismay at the attack. One thing that is noticeable about the village is

:11:17. > :11:21.the exemplary committee relations within this place. Very good working

:11:22. > :11:27.relationships between both sides of the community. At the recent opening

:11:28. > :11:29.of the hall, they retired Catholic priest was present and I think that

:11:30. > :11:35.is an indication of the good community relations. The Orange Hall

:11:36. > :11:39.in Newtowncunningham celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2011 and had

:11:40. > :11:42.just reopened after another arson attack a year earlier. It is also

:11:43. > :11:47.used for a range of activities including keep fit and line dancing

:11:48. > :11:50.by people from across the community. One of the things that happened here

:11:51. > :11:55.is that everyone gets on with the work that has to be done and we

:11:56. > :11:58.support the GAA, the Colombian hall, the Orange Hall, begins behind

:11:59. > :12:05.whichever that this will cause a lot of distress on the Catholics and

:12:06. > :12:09.Protestants in this area. The orange order says while it is devastated at

:12:10. > :12:13.the loss of this hall, it is determined to rebuild bigger and

:12:14. > :12:15.better. The order says it has been heartened by the messages of support

:12:16. > :12:18.from across the committee. Over the past two weeks,

:12:19. > :12:22.we have heard powerful, often disturbing testimony from

:12:23. > :12:24.people who suffered abuse in care The Catholic

:12:25. > :12:29.and Protestant children were sent there in a child migrant scheme now

:12:30. > :12:32.being investigated by the Historical Kevin Sharkey has been speaking

:12:33. > :12:55.to one of the witnesses who Today the chairman of the enquiry

:12:56. > :13:02.launched a Terry and saying it did not provide correct information. The

:13:03. > :13:09.past fortnight has been for other -- has been about for a migrant

:13:10. > :13:15.children. A journey of life coming full

:13:16. > :13:19.circle. This is where Nick has been coming to find his family roots but

:13:20. > :13:23.this is a town he never knew. He was born in a workhouse, said into care

:13:24. > :13:30.and then unable to Australia at the age of eight. They said, you're

:13:31. > :13:35.going to Australia. We didn't know where it was. Within days, Nick was

:13:36. > :13:45.confronted with abuse and brutality at the hands of Christian Brothers.

:13:46. > :13:50.We lay in the sun all day. We had blisters and wear red Rock all over.

:13:51. > :13:56.Then the next day, we went to school and straight after school, we had to

:13:57. > :14:05.put our work clothes on and do work. I could not lift the rocket up and

:14:06. > :14:10.the spreader Superior gave me a thrashing and I was in the infirmary

:14:11. > :14:13.for two weeks. He also had some happy times over the years with

:14:14. > :14:18.young friends in Australia. One of his happiest days when he was

:14:19. > :14:22.eventually reunited with his mother in England but even now as he gets

:14:23. > :14:28.to know his maternal hometown, memories of his early life in care

:14:29. > :14:32.in Australia still haunt him. In the dormitories at night-time, we had 30

:14:33. > :14:38.boys the dormitory and the brothers had their run beside the

:14:39. > :14:48.dormitories. I was a lucky one. They used to come around and I used to

:14:49. > :14:53.see them coming around, they would take the boy into their bedroom for

:14:54. > :14:56.the night. He says he cannot forget his many friends who now live lonely

:14:57. > :15:00.lives in Australia and he considers himself one of the lucky ones and he

:15:01. > :15:03.has his own family and grandchildren. He says he is

:15:04. > :15:09.fortunate to have found his family roots and some -- somewhere to call

:15:10. > :15:13.home. Just one account of 50 hurt here at

:15:14. > :15:17.the enquiry over the past fortnight or so. Voices from the other side of

:15:18. > :15:20.the world that have been silent for years but after the testimony of the

:15:21. > :15:23.last fortnight, those voices are silent number.

:15:24. > :15:27.A Londonderry taxi driver says he is lucky to be alive after suffering

:15:28. > :15:31.Remarkably, within 90 minutes of arriving at Altnagelvin's

:15:32. > :15:34.emergency department, Christie O'Donnell had a stent inserted and

:15:35. > :15:39.It all took place on what the trust has described

:15:40. > :15:50.as a 100% day where staff went the extra mile to beat targets.

:15:51. > :15:56.Back home in Derry and Christie O'Donnell is taking life easy. After

:15:57. > :16:01.developing chest pains while taxiing on Friday, he drove himself to

:16:02. > :16:04.Altnagelvin hospital with the medical team present and extent was

:16:05. > :16:10.inserted all within 40 minutes. This is what they want to do now. The

:16:11. > :16:14.only trying it out for a couple of days but they were hoping it was

:16:15. > :16:21.going full-time the doctors and nurses would be on call, whether it

:16:22. > :16:24.is during the day or night time. He could not have chosen a better day

:16:25. > :16:28.to become ill. Last Friday, the hospital said out to sea, treat and

:16:29. > :16:34.admit or discharge emergency patients with international for our

:16:35. > :16:38.target. Branded as 100% today, according to the trust, staff agreed

:16:39. > :16:43.to go the extra mile to ensure patients were not post or trapped

:16:44. > :16:46.within the system. Extra staff were employed and some services kept open

:16:47. > :16:52.longer to ensure targets were met. The success was the dependent on the

:16:53. > :16:55.collaboration of many different sectors and departments and this

:16:56. > :17:00.included the Northern Irish emergency services and all levels

:17:01. > :17:06.within the hospital and community health. This video by the College of

:17:07. > :17:12.emergency medicine highlight the problems of credit emergency

:17:13. > :17:15.departments. It is calling for all hospital departments to work

:17:16. > :17:19.together so patients can be treated and discharged as quickly as

:17:20. > :17:23.possible. As demonstrated by Altnagelvin staff last Friday. The

:17:24. > :17:29.big challenge will be sustaining that and that will require not just

:17:30. > :17:35.cultural change but also investment within the system. Staff here have

:17:36. > :17:38.proven that in order for the emergency department to work, it

:17:39. > :17:45.requires the support of the entire health and social care system. It is

:17:46. > :17:46.100% day also proved that often it is more about management and

:17:47. > :18:09.millions. When a report in the Isle of Man

:18:10. > :18:12.suggested its native language was extinct, they forgot to tell the

:18:13. > :18:15.people who spoke it. Decades later, there has been a resurgence in the

:18:16. > :18:18.Manx language which is very similar to Ireland's Gaelic and Scotland's

:18:19. > :18:21.Gallic. Our reporter is from the island and in the first of two

:18:22. > :18:32.reports, he tells us how Belfast 30 years ago, just if you listen to

:18:33. > :18:45.speakers of Manx existed and now there are hundreds this is the

:18:46. > :18:50.school where the children are taught solely when he started 15 years ago,

:18:51. > :18:54.we had no idea where to start so we thought we would go to Northern

:18:55. > :18:57.Ireland and the what is there because the Northern Irish Gaelic is

:18:58. > :19:01.very similar to the Manx Gaelic. We went to Belfast and some schools

:19:02. > :19:06.there and had a really good time. We found out about what they did. The

:19:07. > :19:09.good years ago, the people here rejected Gaelic, believing the

:19:10. > :19:33.language was not civilised. Now attitudes are very different.

:19:34. > :19:41.Here, Gillick has crossed support and it is and it wouldn't pride of

:19:42. > :19:53.parliamentary proceedings. And public service broadcasting. The

:19:54. > :19:58.language is impossible to avoid. Neither is the influence and

:19:59. > :20:06.Northern Ireland. They started teaching the Irish. I did a GCSE in

:20:07. > :20:11.areas from an exam board in Belfast. It had to be arranged

:20:12. > :20:16.especially and I had to do the exam in a little room somewhere. If you

:20:17. > :20:21.knew I was already, you will find Manx that strange but it is fairly

:20:22. > :20:25.easy to get into. These islands are connected by more than just the

:20:26. > :20:29.Irish Sea. Through language, people are discovering a shared cultural

:20:30. > :20:41.and -- identity that transcends national boundaries.

:20:42. > :20:45.Tomorrow, we report on the Gillick spending -- Gaelic speaking people

:20:46. > :20:48.in the Outer Hebrides. Time now for sports news and an

:20:49. > :20:56.injury blow to the Ulster rugby team. Ruane Pienaar has damaged knee

:20:57. > :20:59.ligaments while on international duty with South Africa and is almost

:21:00. > :21:06.certain to miss the big European games next month. What about the

:21:07. > :21:14.coaching team? Speculation continues to mount that the coaching setup and

:21:15. > :21:17.personnel. The director of rugby was only a temporary replacement and the

:21:18. > :21:21.IRS he says he must return to Ireland to his international duties.

:21:22. > :21:32.Good a deal brokered to bring him back to Ulster cosmic --? Uncertain

:21:33. > :21:36.time for Ulster. A side note Ulster fan went to see

:21:37. > :21:40.at the weekend. Ruane Pienaar separate a freak injury on

:21:41. > :21:43.international duty with South Africa will stop suspected knee ligament

:21:44. > :21:48.damage can now run him out for up to eight weeks. He will miss two key

:21:49. > :21:52.clashes in Europe. And unsettling piece of news following the IRS

:21:53. > :21:57.and's insistence that the acting director of rugby returns to his

:21:58. > :22:02.Ireland duties next month but the captain remained calm. I think when

:22:03. > :22:06.you have coaches that we have that have been around Ulster in the last

:22:07. > :22:10.few years, you can put a lot of faith in them. Les has come in at a

:22:11. > :22:15.very uncertain time and has put stuff in place. It is very, very

:22:16. > :22:20.good hand it is being left in the three coaches left. The players know

:22:21. > :22:25.them inside out and have a lot of respect for them will stop and think

:22:26. > :22:32.Ulster rugby is in a good place at the moment. As we saw in Friday

:22:33. > :22:36.night 's win. The collision has been growing that new dog could be

:22:37. > :22:42.promoted from assistant to head coach, ending this period of

:22:43. > :22:46.uncertainty. We knew this was coming in in the interim period. It is a

:22:47. > :22:51.big year for Irish rugby with the World Cup coming up. He has been a

:22:52. > :22:54.great help to us and the powers that be will look at the structures and

:22:55. > :22:58.make their decisions accordingly for the benefit of Ulster rugby. We are

:22:59. > :23:02.in the process of just making sure we prepare the team begin, week out

:23:03. > :23:05.and make sure we win. After say they hope to make a statement about the

:23:06. > :23:11.new coaching structure within the next two weeks.

:23:12. > :23:16.After starting the final day in joint first place, Rory McIlroy

:23:17. > :23:23.finished in a tie for second at the PGA Tour championship in Atlanta.

:23:24. > :23:26.The title was won by Billy Horschel. McIlroy finished three shots behind

:23:27. > :23:31.American and separate a blow when he found the water on the sixth for a

:26:45. > :26:51.from the odd shower, a lot of dry weather. There will be bright spells

:26:52. > :26:56.and the winds should be no more than a light to moderate breeze. The

:26:57. > :27:03.cloud certainly played its part today. Still some brightness towards

:27:04. > :27:06.the West at the moment but even there, we will find it filling in

:27:07. > :27:11.with cloud through the course of this evening so not too much

:27:12. > :27:15.brightness as we end the day. That cloud, if anything, will close in as

:27:16. > :27:20.we go through the night. Apart from the odd coastal shower, it stays dry

:27:21. > :27:26.and is mild with temperatures of ten or 11 degrees. Tomorrow, the dry

:27:27. > :27:30.seen continues. We're looking at a lot of cloud, particularly first

:27:31. > :27:39.thing in the morning. It will be a great start and quite buggy across

:27:44. > :27:47.if we get some breaks later on, we might even get some funny games is

:27:48. > :27:52.as well. Temperatures will rise to eight team degrees. It could start

:27:53. > :27:56.on to sharp showers but they will be the exception rather than the rule.

:27:57. > :27:59.Mainly dry tomorrow and that is the way it continues through the rest of

:28:00. > :28:04.the week. But of cloud but hopefully some right intervals as well.

:28:05. > :28:06.That's all from us, good night.
