:03:41. > :03:47.take action to stop it happening again next air. OFM DFM, they are

:04:33. > :04:34.of the council, the PSNI but more the council.
:04:35. > :04:42.That is their responsibility, not mine.
:04:43. > :04:50.Belfast City Council recently cut back the number of security cameras
:04:51. > :04:57.in the area. Some believe more CCTV would help but others say they have
:04:58. > :05:01.a better idea. If we had enough parents out there, those kids would
:05:02. > :05:07.know they couldn't behave that way. This isn't rocket science. It was a
:05:08. > :05:12.difficult night for the emergency services. A paramedic was assaulted
:05:13. > :05:16.by a drunk teenager who had fallen on the street. While she was
:05:17. > :05:20.treating the patient she was kicked in the stomach and spat at and as a

:05:35. > :05:37.No matter who you talk to, that's one thing everyone agrees on.
:05:38. > :05:41.But Stormont ministers say they are taking the problem seriously and
:05:42. > :05:59.they will talk to residents. Londonderry also sought crumble
:06:00. > :06:07.following the same Patrick's Day parade. What happened? Police say
:06:08. > :06:13.around 13 people were arrested due to disorderly behaviour, indecent
:06:14. > :06:19.behaviour, common assault and resisting police officers. They say
:06:20. > :06:22.a 17-year-old was arrested and was being questioned in connection with
:06:23. > :06:28.a stabbing in Grafton Street in Rosemount. We understand an
:06:29. > :06:32.18-year-old man sustained hand injuries and the police will follow
:06:33. > :06:37.that up but police in the city were at pains to put this into the
:06:38. > :06:43.overall perspective of the day, when they say something in the order of

:06:56. > :07:00.were no reports of trouble at that. Police say most of the trouble was
:07:01. > :07:06.in the evening, from people who were heavily intoxicant.
:07:07. > :07:11.And it was also a busy day for staff at Altnagelvin hospital?
:07:12. > :07:16.Yes, the western trust have confirmed that St Patrick's Day is
:07:17. > :07:24.traditionally busy for staff and yesterday was no different, 172
:07:25. > :07:28.people were treated at A Hospital authorities say a disproportionate
:07:29. > :07:31.number work for assaults but they could not give a breakdown of
:07:32. > :07:37.figures as regarding the people who turned up and whether that was
:07:38. > :07:43.solely related to St Patrick's Day, but it was a very busy day for

:07:46. > :07:47.The former senior detective who led the investigation
:07:48. > :07:49.into the disappearance of Arlene Atkinson has told
:07:50. > :07:52.the inquest into her death that he destroyed all of his notes
:07:53. > :07:56.Eric Anderson also said he arrested the child killer Robert Howard six
:07:57. > :08:00.weeks into his investigation but had no option but to release him.
:08:01. > :08:10.Eric Anderson, seen here, gave evidence to the inquest
:08:11. > :08:15.The inquest was told he was ill and this was the only way
:08:16. > :08:18.Responding to questions by counsel for the coroner, Mr Anderson said
:08:19. > :08:31.How did you destroy your journals? or journals relating
:08:32. > :08:32.How did you destroy your journals? He was asked. By burning and
:08:33. > :08:34.How did you destroy your journals? shredding them, he said. The rules
:08:35. > :08:40.require you shredding them, he said. The rules
:08:41. > :08:46.years after retirement. Asked if he had kept copies, he said no. He was
:08:47. > :08:53.asked if he thought it would be useful at a later date but he said
:08:54. > :08:57.at the time he was under serious threat and it was decided that
:08:58. > :08:58.destroying them was the wiser thing to do.
:08:59. > :09:00.Robert Howard, who was widely suspected of killing
:09:01. > :09:05.Arlene Arkinson, was arrested six weeks after her disappearance.
:09:06. > :09:12.Eric Anderson said it was his decision to arrest Howard because
:09:13. > :09:17.his inquiry pointed strongly to Howard killing our lane. He could
:09:18. > :09:23.not remember the reasons, and asked why Howard was not arrested earlier,
:09:24. > :09:27.Mr Anderson said he was snowed under with information and wanted to get
:09:28. > :09:29.more information on how word to build a case and get him to confess
:09:30. > :09:31.where the body was. Howard was later
:09:32. > :09:33.released and free to go. Mr Anderson was asked if he had any
:09:34. > :09:35.concerns about this. "It was the only decision
:09:36. > :09:38.open to us", he said. It also emerged that the then
:09:39. > :09:44.Chief Constable, Sir Hugh Annesley, ordered a search of the home
:09:45. > :09:47.and garden of Kathleen Arkinson, Eric Anderson will continue giving
:09:48. > :09:55.evidence to the inquest next month. Still to come on the programme:

:10:54. > :10:55.clandestine newspaper. A hundred years on, the centenary
:10:56. > :10:57.of these tumultuous events has produced a mountain of literature,

:11:01. > :11:02.and the Battle of the Somme from the perspective
:11:03. > :11:05.of the Christian faith. It includes an interview
:11:06. > :11:07.with the Attorney General, John Larkin, who says
:11:08. > :11:31.of the Easter Rising: It's a view likely to provoke strong
:11:32. > :11:44.reactions, both for and against. He's giving that as a legal
:11:45. > :11:47.perspective and it was great to have his voice as somebody who had
:11:48. > :11:53.studied that, but at the same time the bit most interesting to me is
:11:54. > :11:58.him saying that reconciliation is not possible without forgiveness and
:11:59. > :12:00.that requires God, so a number of interesting comments he made.
:12:01. > :12:02.John Larkin is not afraid of saying difficult things.
:12:03. > :12:04.He stirred controversy when he argued there should be
:12:05. > :12:06.an end to prosecutions for Troubles-related killings.

:22:46. > :22:50.I have not heard a reaction from other players but not just joke but
:22:51. > :22:54.this coaching staff is one of the best I have ever worked that and it
:22:55. > :23:00.would be great to keep it together and keep pushing Ireland forward.
:23:01. > :23:05.OK, we are playing hopefully for third place tomorrow but if we
:23:06. > :23:10.delivered two championships in three years, it's not a bad return. This
:23:11. > :23:18.weekend Schmidt will come up against his former boss at French club
:23:19. > :23:25.Laverne. It is a bit bizarre, I will catch up with him and before the
:23:26. > :23:29.game we will have a bit of a chat about everything but rugby. You
:23:30. > :23:36.really want to win but you don't want him to lose, but there is only
:23:37. > :23:41.one winner. Ireland have just come off a buoyant victory against Italy,
:23:42. > :23:47.so it is exciting to have another crack at good opposition and see
:23:48. > :23:52.where we go. Irish rugby fans have been spoiled over the past two
:23:53. > :23:56.seasons. There was not the a prize tomorrow but what is up for

:25:59. > :26:03.this is not today's sunset, this was St Patrick's day's sunset in the
:26:04. > :26:08.morn is that the sun wasn't that far away today. The bulk of the sunshine
:26:09. > :26:13.was done so and can you imagine how cross we would be if we had
:26:14. > :26:20.yesterday's weather today, at least we had to date but cloudy skies for
:26:21. > :26:27.many Northern counties, any holes in the cloud will feel in tonight. Last
:26:28. > :26:32.night we saw temperatures as low as -5.6 degrees, tonight they will stay
:26:33. > :26:39.positive but there will still be mist and low cloud, and that made it
:26:40. > :26:44.the coldest spring night so far. We expect lots of dry weather this
:26:45. > :26:48.weekend, more cloud than sun and it will be cruel at times with those
:26:49. > :26:53.cloudier skies. To begin with quite great and misty, but hopefully it
:26:54. > :26:58.will brighten as the day goes on but at least it is dry, mist and low
:26:59. > :27:02.cloud should lift off the hills to the morning and it will brighten up
:27:03. > :27:08.as the day goes on, so here's our midday picture, temperatures around
:27:09. > :27:10.eight or nine, maybe six or seven in places where it stays still up
:27:11. > :27:15.towards the north places where it stays still up
:27:16. > :27:19.do get some sunshine to the south places where it stays still up
:27:20. > :27:23.the morn is, you may see 10 degrees but not
:27:24. > :27:26.the morn is, you may see 10 degrees figures. If you are heading south
:27:27. > :27:31.for Ireland's last match in the Six Nations, cloudy skies although it is
:27:32. > :27:36.dry in Dublin. Sunday looks like there is more chance of seeing a bit
:27:37. > :27:40.of sunshine, so we should see temperatures up to ten or 11
:27:41. > :27:49.degrees. More dry weather in the new week due to high pressure that still
:27:50. > :27:50.pretty cloudy. Our late summary is at 10:30pm tonight
