Here, on BBC One, it's time for the news where you are.

:00:00.:00:00.

A series of hoax bomb calls to schools has been described

:00:07.:00:12.

by the police as very serious and worrying.

:00:13.:00:18.

Some of the schools closed following the telephoned warnings

:00:19.:00:22.

which were similar to calls made in other parts of the UK yesterday.

:00:23.:00:25.

The threats were received at seven skills, among members won in alarm.

:00:26.:00:40.

The caller threatened that there was a bomb in the premises and we should

:00:41.:00:45.

not make a phone call to warn anybody about it.

:00:46.:00:49.

Hundreds of children were sent home and. When to stand there were

:00:50.:00:53.

something unusual about the weird messages were community --

:00:54.:01:01.

communicated, they were recorded. We will work with other UK forces

:01:02.:01:06.

because we think there were similar calls received in England.

:01:07.:01:14.

27 calls overall. They have caused widespread disruption across

:01:15.:01:20.

Northern Ireland. 400 young people had to be evacuated from the school

:01:21.:01:24.

and nursery classes were also suspended.

:01:25.:01:28.

Parents unexpectedly called in to collect children were annoyed.

:01:29.:01:37.

I was informed that it was a bomb threat and that the police received

:01:38.:01:44.

a recorded message. I think it is disgraceful these kids are just

:01:45.:01:46.

trying to -- I think it is disgraceful. They are just trying to

:01:47.:01:50.

learn. It is disgusting. The schools will

:01:51.:01:54.

reopen for classes in the morning. The Deputy First Minister has

:01:55.:01:56.

introduced the Sinn Fein ministerial team, without giving away

:01:57.:01:59.

which departments Martin McGuinness said

:02:00.:02:01.

he was confident a Justice Minister would be agreed with the DUP

:02:02.:02:07.

by tomorrow, which has to happen before the rest of the Executive

:02:08.:02:15.

can be appointed. Earlier, I asked our political

:02:16.:02:17.

editor, Mark Devenport, what he made of the make-up

:02:18.:02:19.

of the new Sinn Fein team. Maybe a little bit of a surprise

:02:20.:02:29.

that Conor Murphy's name was not there as he is often talked about a

:02:30.:02:36.

potential replacement for Martin McGuinness. Putting that to one

:02:37.:02:40.

side, it was a young looking team. Megan Fearon at the age of 24 is the

:02:41.:02:46.

youngest. We do not know which department she will be allocated to.

:02:47.:02:57.

Mairtin O Muilleoir could be someone who fancies and economic brief. He

:02:58.:03:07.

is a businessman with a background in media business. He has visited

:03:08.:03:14.

the United States and his previous capacity as Lord Belfast. Michelle

:03:15.:03:17.

O'Neill provides continuity with the previous ministerial team. We do not

:03:18.:03:22.

know whether jobs will be but Martin McGuinness was strong and talking

:03:23.:03:26.

about their qualities as a ministerial team.

:03:27.:03:29.

They are all of my friends, they are all highly intelligent, they are all

:03:30.:03:34.

hugely dedicated Irish republicans and they are backed up by all of our

:03:35.:03:41.

other colleagues who are just as intelligent and determined. We could

:03:42.:03:47.

have full these positions to three times over.

:03:48.:03:50.

There is still confusion over the Justice Minister. How will that be

:03:51.:03:57.

resolved? That is still unclear. We know that

:03:58.:03:59.

they have to resolve it otherwise they cannot get on with appointing

:04:00.:04:03.

other ministers. That would trigger an collection. Martin McGuinness has

:04:04.:04:15.

said that will not happen. It seems the only option will be an

:04:16.:04:20.

independent Unionist or DUP Justice Minister. These comments were seized

:04:21.:04:29.

on that it could come from elsewhere.

:04:30.:04:34.

The make-up of the next administration will be in the mean

:04:35.:04:39.

between the DUP and Sinn Fein. There will be further discussions about

:04:40.:04:43.

that. We're expecting the assembly to sit

:04:44.:04:46.

at noon tomorrow and will get the answers to those questions as to to

:04:47.:04:54.

the Justice Minister will be and what portfolio will go to the Sinn

:04:55.:05:01.

Fein ministers. Martin McGuinness denied that seeing in the mine was a

:05:02.:05:03.

slap. Our political editor

:05:04.:05:07.

speaking to me earlier. A 16-year-old has appeared in court

:05:08.:05:08.

charged with the murder of Gerard Quinn in Londonderry

:05:09.:05:11.

at the weekend. The teenager's relatives said

:05:12.:05:13.

they offered their deepest Here's our North-West

:05:14.:05:16.

reporter, Keiron Tourish. The 16-year-old boy was accused of

:05:17.:05:28.

the murder of Gerard Quinn and with the attempted grievous bodily harm

:05:29.:05:34.

with intent on a second man. The court heard goalies were called to

:05:35.:05:39.

an incident when a man was stabbed in the throat. When they arrived, he

:05:40.:05:44.

was lying on the ground and had lost a lot of light. Members of the

:05:45.:05:50.

public were trying to revive him. He later died. A postmortem examination

:05:51.:05:55.

revealed that Gerard Quinn died from a star point to the neck from broken

:05:56.:06:02.

glass. It caused immediate bleeding which could not be stopped. The

:06:03.:06:07.

detective said prior to the incident there was a fight involving the

:06:08.:06:12.

deceased, as brother and another 16-year-old individual. She

:06:13.:06:15.

confirmed the accused raised the issue of self defence of himself and

:06:16.:06:20.

others. A defence barrister said the accused's family wanted to convey

:06:21.:06:25.

their deepest condolences to the victim's family for what he

:06:26.:06:31.

described was a tragedy. He said the 16-year-old was caught grating

:06:32.:06:36.

fully. Nielsen said there would be no repercussions, hopefully. The

:06:37.:06:43.

district judge conveyed his sympathy to the victim's family and said it

:06:44.:06:47.

was a tragedy for all. A 29-year-old man has been arrested

:06:48.:06:52.

after he handed himself into gardai this evening in connection

:06:53.:06:55.

with the murder of a man in Dublin's Gareth Hutch, who was in his 30s,

:06:56.:06:58.

was shot several times around ten o'clock this morning

:06:59.:07:01.

in North Cumberland Street. It's thought to be the latest

:07:02.:07:03.

attack in a ongoing feud. He is the seventh person to die

:07:04.:07:07.

since February as a result of a dispute between the Hutch

:07:08.:07:10.

and Kinahan gangs. This morning was another outrageous

:07:11.:07:20.

event. Very violent and indeed extremely worrying.

:07:21.:07:26.

The GAA says it hopes to start building a new Casement Park stadium

:07:27.:07:30.

A new planning application will be submitted soon and the GAA says it

:07:31.:07:36.

will address fears over the emergency exiting arrangements

:07:37.:07:38.

The association also says it wants to hear the views of

:07:39.:07:43.

GAA started adding feeds that are both what size and shape Casement

:07:44.:07:56.

Park should be. The last planning application was overturned. This

:07:57.:07:59.

time they hope the outcome will be different.

:08:00.:08:01.

The submission of the planning application will be that the quarter

:08:02.:08:05.

of this year. Colchester construction next year if we get

:08:06.:08:11.

planning through any intent from GAA is to have construction completed by

:08:12.:08:14.

2019. Critics said you were too arrogant

:08:15.:08:20.

last time. Do you accept that? I would not accept the charge of

:08:21.:08:24.

being arrogant but I would say that GAA approached it in good faith. The

:08:25.:08:28.

number of lessons have been learned. We want to be good neighbours and

:08:29.:08:33.

have been in the past. I hope that in the upcoming process and when

:08:34.:08:36.

Casement Park is completed then we can be no -- good neighbours.

:08:37.:08:44.

This was the original design for the stadium and another new one is being

:08:45.:08:51.

worked on. The GAA say they do not have to have 38,000 seats and they

:08:52.:08:57.

will not be demolishing nearby houses to accommodate it.

:08:58.:09:01.

We have no plans to purchase or demolish anybody's homes. We have no

:09:02.:09:11.

authority in relation to compulsory purchase orders.

:09:12.:09:18.

It is an ambitious plan to have this old stadium redesigned, rebuilt and

:09:19.:09:21.

fully functioning all within the next four years. But the GAA say

:09:22.:09:24.

they are confident plan will work. And tonight's BBC Spotlight

programme investigates the delay That's here on BBC One

straight after this news. The Prince of Wales sampled

ancient and modern culture He also got an irreverent

:09:35.:09:37.

tour dealing with some Maggie Taggart was at Hillborough

:09:38.:09:41.

for a musical event tonight. This is the final event of the day

:09:42.:09:58.

here at Hillsborough Castle where, in theory, the royal couple can kick

:09:59.:10:02.

off their shoes and listen to relaxing music, before retiring for

:10:03.:10:07.

the night. Around 200 guests joined them in the audience and afterwards

:10:08.:10:10.

they met the performers. While most were on their best behaviour, one

:10:11.:10:16.

comedian could not resist teasing the first-mac.

:10:17.:10:25.

I'm nervous but not because of you, because of this lady. She do so,

:10:26.:10:32.

this is a big gig for me because she might offer me a post if it goes

:10:33.:10:38.

well. The Prince visited a church

:10:39.:10:49.

community centre. That has been there since I remember

:10:50.:10:53.

and it is lovely to see it all done up.

:10:54.:10:57.

County Armagh is the next stop and a food and drink event.

:10:58.:11:04.

It was lovely to meet them. We did not know they were good to be here.

:11:05.:11:09.

We thought we would ring her down and meet royalty for the first time.

:11:10.:11:16.

Then the chance to you the making of a carpet destined for Buckingham

:11:17.:11:17.

Palace. I'm glad to discover that the carpet

:11:18.:11:23.

destined for a given Palace is going to arrive on time.

:11:24.:11:32.

It was marvellous to get a cross-section of Northern Irish

talent to remain people what talent there is.

:11:56.:11:56.

The weather forecast now, with Cecilia Daly.

:11:57.:12:06.

Temperatures have been up to 19 degrees in some spots today but

:12:07.:12:12.

cooler on the coast. We have had clear skies tonight and they will

:12:13.:12:21.

remain overnight. The risk of Frost on the grass and fog patches in the

:12:22.:12:26.

river valleys. It will be a chilly start tomorrow with early-morning

:12:27.:12:30.

fog. But there will also be sunshine. It will warm up quickly.

:12:31.:12:34.

It will be another pretty good day although it will turn cloudy from

:12:35.:12:47.

the East as it goes on. The rain will spread from the East through

:12:48.:12:59.

the Midlands. Dreyer further west. Western counties of Northern Ireland

:13:00.:13:01.

will have sunshine tomorrow afternoon. Not as warm as today but

:13:02.:13:05.

still 16 degrees in places. Cloud and cooler in the East but at least

:13:06.:13:13.

it is dry. Some rain in the East in the morning on Thursday. It should

:13:14.:13:19.

not amount to much and the emphasis is on dry weather. Warming up over

:13:20.:13:21.

the weekend. Our next BBC Newsline is at 6:25am
