:02:01. > :02:10.As finance Minister, Mairtin O Muilleoir has one of the biggest is
:02:11. > :02:15.jobs at Stormont but not long ago, he was a member of the Finance
:02:16. > :02:21.committee on the day it heard explosive evidence from this man.
:02:22. > :02:25.Last week his party colleague resigned as an MLA after the
:02:26. > :02:39.revelation that he helped advise him about how to give his evidence.
:02:40. > :02:47.Given that there is reference to the finance member then of the
:02:48. > :02:52.committee, now a minister, that people will be told what he would
:02:53. > :02:57.say, when he would say, at what stage he would come in, that it is
:02:58. > :03:02.now impossible I think in any fair-minded process for a minister
:03:03. > :03:07.to be able to carry on in office and have the confidence of the assembly.
:03:08. > :03:10.The call for the Minister to step aside was backed by all the other
:03:11. > :03:17.parties on the committee, bar Sinn Fein. The confidence has been so
:03:18. > :03:24.seriously eroded and damaged that he cannot possibly continue, regardless
:03:25. > :03:27.of whether he is guilty or not. But Mairtin O Muilleoir 's own party
:03:28. > :03:33.accused the others of paying petty party politics. I believe in
:03:34. > :03:43.scrutiny. I am a passionate advocate of scrutiny. But currently there is
:03:44. > :03:47.an investigation into this whole issue, and that is the place for
:03:48. > :03:53.that investigation to that -- for that place. For all that was said
:03:54. > :03:57.today, the committee cannot force Mairtin O Muilleoir to step aside.
:03:58. > :04:04.That power rests solely with his party and so far he has sinned
:04:05. > :04:11.frames full support. Martin nugget -- Martin McGuinness said today:
:04:12. > :04:18.the committee which has also invited Mairtin O Muilleoir to appear before

:04:31. > :04:33.disqualified from an A-level exam and their grades have been

:04:42. > :04:49.It explain what has happened. I am at the school at the centre of this
:04:50. > :04:55.problem. And the BBC understands that around 15 students who sat the
:04:56. > :05:02.A-level sociology exam which was set by the exam board are affected. It
:05:03. > :05:06.is understood that one student sat the exam early because of a
:05:07. > :05:10.timetable clash and then shared questions on social media. Remember,
:05:11. > :05:17.it would not be unusual for a student to get a timetable clash.
:05:18. > :05:20.They have to sit earlier or later. But normally, they are allowed no
:05:21. > :05:26.contact with the students during that process. It is still unclear
:05:27. > :05:29.how this problem came to light. But the exam board did launch an
:05:30. > :05:34.investigation and the affected pupils have recently been informed
:05:35. > :05:38.of the outcome. We understand they were informed of the sanctions last
:05:39. > :05:44.week. What other detail has the exam board given you? Well, in a
:05:45. > :05:49.statement, they told us that they could not discuss what they called
:05:50. > :05:53.cases of alleged malpractice but a spokesperson said, no one taking our
:05:54. > :05:57.exam should have an unfair advantage so we thoroughly investigate
:05:58. > :06:01.allegations of cheating and take action when there is clear evidence
:06:02. > :06:08.against specific individuals. Our advice to any student is to report
:06:09. > :06:13.any leaked details to a teacher straightaway. What has the school
:06:14. > :06:17.said about it? We of course contacted the school and no one was
:06:18. > :06:21.available for interview. At a short time ago, they also gave us a
:06:22. > :06:29.statement and in that they said they regret to say that there was an
:06:30. > :06:32.incident involving students. They say the matter was dealt with by the
:06:33. > :06:38.school and the examination board in line with joint Council for
:06:39. > :06:42.guidelines and the students involved have been sanctioned. They go on to

:07:39. > :07:41.Our Health Correspondent, Marie-Louise Connolly,
:07:42. > :08:02.Despite his condition, Neill Birnie wants to live for as long as

:08:08. > :08:13.your time. Communicating via a computer and he loves a good joke
:08:14. > :08:20.and has a wicked sense of humour. This can make me come across as
:08:21. > :08:28.bloody-minded. In a busy environment... Let me assure you
:08:29. > :08:38.that the lights are on and I am definitely at home. Mentally alert,
:08:39. > :08:42.in anti-14, after being taken to hospital, he discovered a do not
:08:43. > :08:45.resuscitate order had been placed on his record. He says he did not ask
:08:46. > :08:52.for one nor was it discussed with his family. There was absolutely no
:08:53. > :08:55.effort made to ask my opinion. The consultant stood at the end of my
:08:56. > :08:59.bed flanked by two junior doctors and told me that I had gone through
:09:00. > :09:03.enough and that I had to face facts and that he had consulted with the
:09:04. > :09:08.intensive care unit and they were of the same opinion, so he was putting
:09:09. > :09:14.a do not present -- do not resuscitate notice on my admission
:09:15. > :09:19.file. In a statement, a spokesperson for the health trust said that the

:09:27. > :09:30.taken when a professional feels that as attempts would be futile and not
:09:31. > :09:34.in their best interests in providing a dignified death. The trust said
:09:35. > :09:39.this was discussed with Neill Birnie initially and put in place at a
:09:40. > :09:43.conversation with his next of kin. Guidelines emphasise the need for
:09:44. > :09:48.medics to clearly discuss the impact of a notice. That means a patient
:09:49. > :09:52.will not be resuscitated, equally a family should be prepared for the
:09:53. > :09:59.impact CPR can have on a person's body. It is terribly distressing
:10:00. > :10:06.because someone has had CPR apply to them who is maybe elderly, who is
:10:07. > :10:12.maybe frail, maybe very sick and the CPR can be traumatic. And I think
:10:13. > :10:15.then the family can get very upset by how their loved one appears when
:10:16. > :10:23.they finally get to their bedside and CPR has been applied. A puppy
:10:24. > :10:29.arrived last week for Neill Birnie 's birthday. The family hope it will
:10:30. > :10:33.help heal the mental scars. The precious gift of my life was
:10:34. > :10:40.considered valueless by the hospital. He says his mission is to

:12:13. > :12:16.hotel Pat Hickey 's wife told officers he had gone home to
:12:17. > :12:18.Ireland. He was later detained in an adjoining bedroom. His lawyers have
:12:19. > :12:25.released a statement saying his detention by police was under mere

:12:30. > :12:32.he was sleeping in one of the three rooms allocated to him and his
:12:33. > :12:36.family due to an insomnia. The lawyers went on to say that he did

:12:40. > :12:43.and then go to the next room. The statement also said that his wife

:13:15. > :13:25.Here's our south west reporter, Julian Fowler.
:13:26. > :13:30.The Secretary of State has been meeting people across Northern
:13:31. > :13:35.Ireland to hear first-hand their concerns. Here it was the issue of
:13:36. > :13:41.the past that this group wants to see progress made. He told them he
:13:42. > :13:44.would make it his priority. I am in no doubt as to the compact cities of
:13:45. > :13:51.the issues and indeed what people are looking to get from this whole
:13:52. > :13:54.process. But what I think there is a clear message is that the existing
:13:55. > :13:58.system is not working and that we do need to see change. We do need to
:13:59. > :14:02.see things move forward and that is why I am very intent to see that
:14:03. > :14:06.these new institutions that were set out in the Stormont House Agreement
:14:07. > :14:09.to come to fruition but do so in a way that is able to command
:14:10. > :14:14.confidence and respect and brings people with that process. He spent
:14:15. > :14:17.more than an hour listening to their experiences of the troubles and
:14:18. > :14:22.these victims and survivors said he listened to what they had to say. I
:14:23. > :14:26.think a lot of innocent victims like ourselves have been forgotten about.
:14:27. > :14:30.Everybody wants us to go away but we will never go away. I think he
:14:31. > :14:36.listened very intently to us. There were several of us here with very
:14:37. > :14:43.hollowing, horrible stories and maybe he take it from -- harrowing.
:14:44. > :14:46.Maybe he will take that on board. People have been let down. I know it
:14:47. > :14:53.is not easy to establish as I say the truth and as I say move forward,
:14:54. > :15:00.but I think over time, and I think if everybody could embrace the
:15:01. > :15:03.possibility of a major feature for the next generation in Northern
:15:04. > :15:08.Ireland, I think that could be achievable. But it will be a hard
:15:09. > :15:12.job. When it comes to the past, it will be impossible to please
:15:13. > :15:16.everybody. This is the last in a series of meetings held with victims
:15:17. > :15:20.groups across Northern Ireland. Having told their stories, victims
:15:21. > :15:22.and survivors will be waiting to see what the Secretary of State can

:15:35. > :15:37.has placed ?180,000 on hold for the project
:15:38. > :15:40.at the Oisin Glenariffe club. That's because of a set of gates
:15:41. > :15:43.currently at the ground bear the names of two IRA men killed
:15:44. > :15:46.in a gunbattle with police in 1922. Our north east reporter,

:15:49. > :16:04.about the background Good evening. Talk of building a
:16:05. > :16:09.cross community Centre at the sight of the GAA club has been ongoing for
:16:10. > :16:12.the last number of years. The project is set to cost more than ?1
:16:13. > :16:18.million and it was hoped that ?180,000 that would come from the
:16:19. > :16:22.Causeway Coast and then council. That was proved in theory earlier
:16:23. > :16:26.this year but when it went to the full council, the DUP raised
:16:27. > :16:36.concerns about the commemoration gates. They bear the name of two IRA
:16:37. > :16:40.men killed in 1922. The DUP say that if those names remain, they simply
:16:41. > :16:51.could not be viewed as a cross community project. I beg your
:16:52. > :16:56.pardon. What is due to happen there this evening that the council in
:16:57. > :17:02.Coleraine? The matter of funding will be discussed here this evening.
:17:03. > :17:04.The council as I was going to say sought legal advice on the issue and
:17:05. > :17:07.that advice will be related to night. I understand that will take
:17:08. > :17:12.place in committee, meaning that members of the public and the press
:17:13. > :17:18.will not be allowed to hear it. And what statement has been made by the
:17:19. > :17:24.council? Sorry, by the club? We have not heard anything from the club
:17:25. > :17:27.Bickley but I have spoken to a few members today and they told me that
:17:28. > :17:31.they did not want to speak on camera. This matter is too sensitive
:17:32. > :17:35.to do that. They want to wait until the outcome of tonight 's meeting.
:17:36. > :17:40.However they did tell me that of the 160 odd members that they have in
:17:41. > :17:44.the club, only around 35 of them actually turned out to vote on the
:17:45. > :17:50.matter and of that, only three voted against. They are willing to see if
:17:51. > :17:55.that decision not to move the gates from the entrance to a nearby
:17:56. > :17:58.hurling site, not to remove them completely but to relocate them,
:17:59. > :18:03.will secure them ?180,000 worth of funding from this council. Clearly

:21:10. > :21:16.on a specialist milk formula, crushed fish and cream, it is time
:21:17. > :21:20.to put them back. Initially at least, they don't seem that keen on

:21:27. > :21:30.at birth and that normally means certain death unless an expert
:21:31. > :21:33.intervenes. They have to be able to follow their mothers into the water

:25:48. > :25:51.things are looking more cheery tomorrow. It is starting to dry up
:25:52. > :25:54.in a lot of places at the moment. You can see from the satellite
:25:55. > :25:58.picture, some brighter skies coming into the West. A bit of late
:25:59. > :26:02.sunshine and the weather front that brought today's rain and drizzle is
:26:03. > :26:06.clearing away. Maybe not the spectacular sunsets that many people
:26:07. > :26:10.saw yesterday evening but there will be some dry weather around this
:26:11. > :26:16.evening. It will get clearer as the night goes on and temperatures
:26:17. > :26:20.dropping into single figures. A fresh start to Wednesday. Maybe one
:26:21. > :26:25.or two spots of fog first thing but otherwise a really nice day. Great
:26:26. > :26:30.for the end of the summer holidays. Lots of sunshine around in the
:26:31. > :26:33.morning. Small amounts of cloud and although it will start cool, it will
:26:34. > :26:38.start to feel warm towards lunchtime. Temperatures in the
:26:39. > :26:42.afternoon around 19 Celsius, maybe even 21 in some spots. Light winds
:26:43. > :26:47.as well. As the afternoon goes on, a little bit more cloud developing
:26:48. > :26:54.over the West. That cloud may produce some light showers but most
:26:55. > :27:00.places will stay found. -- fine. A nice sunny evening to come tomorrow
:27:01. > :27:02.evening. You're not need your Wellington boots tomorrow night. And
:27:03. > :27:08.then on Thursday, we are looking at just one or two showers. Again, a
:27:09. > :27:11.lot of bright weather. Temperatures just a fraction down on tomorrow.
:27:12. > :27:17.More chance of seeing some showers towards the end of the day. Friday,
:27:18. > :27:20.a ridge of high pressure. Not too much anyway of rain over the next
:27:21. > :27:23.couple of days but it is this low pressure we are looking at for the
:27:24. > :27:26.coming weekend, bringing some wet weather at some stage this weekend.
:27:27. > :27:30.At the moment, we still have a few things to tie-up with regards to the
:27:31. > :27:33.timing of that rain. A nice day to come on Friday. Likely to see some
:27:34. > :27:37.rain later on on Saturday. You can also keep in contact with us
