:02:38. > :02:57.of us getting justice and being able to go to bed

:03:02. > :03:04.on Bloody Sunday said the police told them they had identified eight

:03:05. > :03:07.suspects they planned to interview That means more arrests

:03:08. > :03:17.of former soldiers could follow. A former soldier is to be prosecuted

:03:18. > :03:20.for the attempted murder of a man 27-year-old John Pat Cunningham, who

:03:21. > :03:28.had learning difficulties, was shot Denis Hutchings, who is 74 and from

:03:29. > :03:34.Cornwall, was charged last April. Today, Armagh Magistrates' Court

:03:35. > :03:38.heard that the case The American health company

:03:39. > :03:44.CVS Caremark is to close its Belfast The centre, which opened in 2012,

:03:45. > :03:52.develops software for the firm, which is one of America's biggest

:03:53. > :03:56.pharmacy chains. Invest NI had offered

:03:57. > :03:58.the company almost ?2 million to CVS Caremark has drawn down

:03:59. > :04:04.about half-a-million of this. Invest NI says it will now

:04:05. > :04:10.investigate getting that back. The First and Deputy Ministers have

:04:11. > :04:13.been talking in upbeat terms about Peter Robinson said the DUP and

:04:14. > :04:19.Sinn Fein had reached agreement on the "substance" of a deal and he

:04:20. > :04:24.was hopeful of agreement this week. Martin McGuinness said while there

:04:25. > :04:27.was more work to be done, However, the Secretary of State,

:04:28. > :04:32.Theresa Villiers, There are a number of areas where we

:04:33. > :04:40.have closed the gap, but it is still very difficult to get a solution on

:04:41. > :04:46.implementation of Welfare Reform. That is absolutely crucial

:04:47. > :04:49.if the Executive will have I don't think we have got

:04:50. > :04:55.a resolution on that. Also, on the legacy bodies,

:04:56. > :05:02.in relation to national security matters, and onward disclosure

:05:03. > :05:05.of documentation continues to be sensitive and we are working

:05:06. > :05:09.on those matters, too. The First Minister said he agreed

:05:10. > :05:21.that a deal could not be guaranteed, I believe that things are going in

:05:22. > :05:26.the right direction. Obviously, when you are dealing with an agreement

:05:27. > :05:29.that the one to get the widest possible support for, the fact that

:05:30. > :05:35.the core of that agreement, the substance of it has been already

:05:36. > :05:40.agreed in dialogue terms between Sinn Fein and the DUP means that we

:05:41. > :05:45.then have to put it into text form. We want to do that in a way that can

:05:46. > :05:49.get the support of the other participating parties. I certainly

:05:50. > :05:54.believe at the beginning of the week, given what I think was great

:05:55. > :05:58.work done by some of the parties over the last couple of weeks were

:05:59. > :06:04.great progress was made, that a deal was achievable by the end of this

:06:05. > :06:07.week. I think of both governments applied the same urgency to the

:06:08. > :06:13.challenges that remain, the same urgency is as the parties have

:06:14. > :06:14.applied, then there would have been an agreement by the end of this

:06:15. > :06:17.week. A deer has been shot dead

:06:18. > :06:20.by police marksmen in the grounds As Maggie Taggart reports,

:06:21. > :06:29.the animal was said to be agitated It is the rutting season for deer,

:06:30. > :06:34.when males fight with each other in competition for females. Today at

:06:35. > :06:38.large stag with antlers were spotted in the grounds of Antrim Grammar

:06:39. > :06:44.School. Stafford told to keep the pupils endorse. I am no expert on

:06:45. > :06:49.dealing with a wild animal like this, but I have to say it was a

:06:50. > :06:54.huge animal. Knowing that and knowing how close are pupils were,

:06:55. > :06:58.it actually ran past some of the pupils when they were outside, that

:06:59. > :07:02.it could have caused damage and that would've been far worse for me as a

:07:03. > :07:04.principle to deal with if a child or a member of the public had been

:07:05. > :07:10.injured. It been hoped the tranquillised the deer in school

:07:11. > :07:13.grounds, but the animal was killed by a police marksman. The police

:07:14. > :07:19.said that regrettably after consultation with that were required

:07:20. > :07:23.to shoot the stag. They said was agitated and a threat to the public.

:07:24. > :07:28.The office of the police ombudsman has been informed.

:07:29. > :07:36.We were aware that shots had to be fired. As far as I can gather, there

:07:37. > :07:40.was no alternative. As you might expect, the 700 pupils here were

:07:41. > :07:44.fascinated by the whole operation even though they were locked inside

:07:45. > :07:48.the school. Some younger pupils were upset at the outcome and the death

:07:49. > :07:52.of the deer, but they understand some police liaison officers will be

:07:53. > :07:55.Looking ahead to BBC Newsline tomorrow, many parents take

:07:56. > :07:58.for granted getting a school place for their child, but what

:07:59. > :08:01.if they can't get a place because the child has not been baptised?

:08:02. > :08:03.Our Dublin correspondent Shane Harrison's been speaking to

:08:04. > :08:07.families who are struggling to get school places for their children.

:08:08. > :08:09.That's on BBC Newsline tomorrow evening at 6.30pm.

:08:10. > :08:22.The weather outlook now with Angie Philips.

:08:23. > :08:34.After last night, Murdoch holds the record for the warmest November

:08:35. > :08:37.night. We are in this warm swathe that is across the country. This

:08:38. > :08:41.warm front is bringing spells of rain throughout the day. In the hand

:08:42. > :08:45.that the error is not quite as mild. We still have the remnants of the

:08:46. > :08:50.front across the south-east through the night. It could be quite damp,

:08:51. > :08:53.particularly for County Down. Temperatures are into single

:08:54. > :08:58.figures, if degrees are still well above average for the time of year.

:08:59. > :09:02.Into tomorrow, we are not quite as optimistic as we have been over the

:09:03. > :09:05.last couple of days. There are showers in the forecast. The rain

:09:06. > :09:10.clears the County Down coast quite quickly than it is mainly dry and

:09:11. > :09:13.bright. The rain will clear the way from the south-east of the Republic

:09:14. > :09:17.of Ireland but lingering across northern England, northern parts of

:09:18. > :09:21.Wales. Scattered showers to the south of that, but mainly dry

:09:22. > :09:25.towards the east of thing in and it is still mild to the south of that,

:09:26. > :09:31.but mainly dry towards the east of thing in and it is still mad the

:09:32. > :09:35.Republic of Ireland. After a brighter start in Northern Ireland

:09:36. > :09:38.for many, this band of showers were moving and could be the risk of

:09:39. > :09:42.thunder before clearing away later on. The breeze will pick up with

:09:43. > :09:47.temperatures just like the above average of 12 degrees. Into

:09:48. > :09:51.Thursday, this deepening low, the first named storm of the season,

:09:52. > :09:56.Abigail, could cause disruption to the north and west of Scotland,

:09:57. > :09:59.certainly bringing us the rain and wind as well.

:10:00. > :10:05.Our next BBC Newsline is at 6.25am during Breakfast here on BBC One.
