and on BBC One we now join the BBC's news teams where you are.

:00:00.:00:14.

Good evening, the headlines on BBC Newsline:

:00:15.:00:19.

The Director of Public Prosecutions hits back at critics

:00:20.:00:22.

It isn't something to this office and to the lawyers -- insulting who

:00:23.:00:38.

do their work daily with absolute integrity.

:00:39.:00:39.

A former Army colonel says he was a "kind

:00:40.:00:41.

of torturer" when serving here during the Troubles.

:00:42.:00:43.

Three people escape injury in a pipe bombing at a house in Londonderry.

:00:44.:00:48.

Why the price of fruit and veg prices, bus fares

:00:49.:00:50.

A little bit of Northern Ireland comes to Las Vegas as Carl Frampton

:00:51.:01:02.

prepares for his world title defence at the weekend.

:01:03.:01:08.

And the cold wind will ease over the next 24 hours,

:01:09.:01:10.

but unfortunately we replace it with some rain.

:01:11.:01:13.

The Director of Public Prosecutions has hit back at critics who have

:01:14.:01:24.

accused him of treating former soldiers unfairly

:01:25.:01:29.

by deciding to prosecute some for Troubles related killings.

:01:30.:01:33.

Barra McGrory says they've insulted him and his team.

:01:34.:01:38.

Our home affairs correspondant Vincent Kearney asked him to respond

:01:39.:01:41.

to claims that he's not impartial because, as a solicitor,

:01:42.:01:45.

he represnted the Sinn Fein president Gerry Adams

:01:46.:01:47.

Mystified is the mildest way I can put it because anyone who is

:01:48.:02:02.

informed about these matters would know that as a professional lawyer

:02:03.:02:08.

you represent anybody who seek the representation from you. I have been

:02:09.:02:14.

a professional lawyer for 30 years during which period I have

:02:15.:02:20.

represented many paramilitaries, Republic paramilitaries, members of

:02:21.:02:26.

the DUP, members of Sinn Fein, I have represented a broad

:02:27.:02:30.

cross-section of people. Who I have represented in the past really has

:02:31.:02:34.

nothing to do with it. As Director of Public Prosecutions now, do you

:02:35.:02:40.

view that criticism as an attempt to influence your decision making, an

:02:41.:02:44.

attempt to put pressure on you not to prosecute former soldiers? I

:02:45.:02:51.

can't speak for the motivation of people who say such things but some

:02:52.:02:54.

of them ought to know better. If you're not trying to influence me,

:02:55.:02:58.

then the are certainly being personally insulting and the

:02:59.:03:04.

questioning my integrity. What concerns me more about that is it

:03:05.:03:13.

isn't something to this office -- insulting and two lawyers who work

:03:14.:03:17.

here and do their work daily with absolute integrity and to be

:03:18.:03:21.

bettered ability. I am personally offended by the remarks but I am

:03:22.:03:27.

more offended on behalf of of the individuals who work for the public

:03:28.:03:31.

positives in service and who do a fantastic job. I think those making

:03:32.:03:34.

the comments ought to think a bit more carefully before the speak.

:03:35.:03:41.

Credit card questioned how you can decide to charge former soldiers

:03:42.:03:43.

were one of your predecessors said there was insufficient evidence to

:03:44.:03:49.

merit a prosecution. They have said you have reached a different

:03:50.:03:51.

conclusion based on the evidence that was considered previously. That

:03:52.:03:58.

inaccurate, Vincent. In each of the three soldiers cases which this

:03:59.:04:03.

office has examined there has been new evidence, whether that be

:04:04.:04:09.

evidence which has been forthcoming, following an inquest and referred to

:04:10.:04:14.

me by the coroner, the powers available to coroners, or new

:04:15.:04:20.

evidence obtained by PSN eye in the context of its investigations or in

:04:21.:04:26.

any other context through forensic evidence which has emerged through a

:04:27.:04:32.

variety of routes since the original decision was taken. Anyone who has

:04:33.:04:38.

said that this is the retaking of a decision in respect of which nothing

:04:39.:04:41.

else has changed is quite simply wrong.

:04:42.:04:42.

The Director of Public Prosecutions speaking to Vincent Kearney.

:04:43.:04:44.

Politicians have been divided on what Mr McGrory said.

:04:45.:04:55.

And the legacy issue. There is a disproportionate evidence --

:04:56.:05:02.

emphasis. Those people who have suffered as a result of terrorism

:05:03.:05:05.

engagement aren't having their cases looked at all. As a consequence of

:05:06.:05:09.

that, when the cases are investigated and sent up to the DUP,

:05:10.:05:13.

he is making decisions in relation to the evidence that is brought to

:05:14.:05:16.

him. Meanwhile the other cases aren't being looked at all. There is

:05:17.:05:21.

a difficulty in terms of proportionality and there is

:05:22.:05:23.

certainly a difficulty in relation to balance the needs to be

:05:24.:05:29.

addressed. They are bound to be absolutely without practice and

:05:30.:05:35.

unbiased, I believe that's 40 years. I don't even know any of the names

:05:36.:05:44.

of the other people. But you try and attack that institution on the basis

:05:45.:05:48.

that a small number, less than three soldiers, it may have been charged

:05:49.:05:55.

and one or two of them, it is a pointless attack. It's not an

:05:56.:06:02.

accusation, it's the perception on the streets from the large

:06:03.:06:06.

proportion of this committee and if the perception is that the

:06:07.:06:10.

investigations are against one particular group then there is an

:06:11.:06:14.

issue here. That has to be addressed. I had a number of

:06:15.:06:18.

meetings with Barra McGrory when I was Minister of justice and he was

:06:19.:06:22.

doing his job as he was supposed to do, in partially considering the

:06:23.:06:25.

evidence put before him by the police, when the cases were brought

:06:26.:06:26.

to him. Campaigners for victims

:06:27.:06:28.

of the Birmingham pub bombings have been told their lawyers will be able

:06:29.:06:30.

to apply for legal aid. The Government has intervened

:06:31.:06:33.

to remove legal barriers which had stopped their Northern Ireland based

solicitors from The inquests into the deaths of 21

:06:36.:06:37.

people who were killed by the IRA in November 1974 are due to resume

:06:38.:06:42.

later this year. A former army officer has said

:06:43.:06:49.

he was a "kind of torturer" when it came to interrogating terrorist

:06:50.:06:52.

suspects during the Troubles. Bob Stewart, who is now an MP,

:06:53.:06:56.

was reacting to remarks by the US President Donald Trump about the use

:06:57.:07:00.

of waterboarding when questioning Before entering the world

of politics, MP Bob Stewart The outspoken former army

colonel came to prominence However, it's remarks he made

:07:13.:07:17.

about his time as an officer serving in Northern Ireland

:07:18.:07:22.

during the Troubles that have The Conservative MP was speaking

:07:23.:07:24.

on BBC radio earlier today. I was a soldier in north Belfast.

:07:25.:07:42.

There were forbidden techniques introduced in 1977, some of which I

:07:43.:07:48.

had used prior to that. Sleep deprivation. In a way, technically,

:07:49.:07:56.

as you look at it today, I was the kind of the torturer. Of course, it

:07:57.:08:00.

was acceptable then. It is no unacceptable. -- now with.

:08:01.:08:05.

The UK Government authorised the use of five interrogation methods

:08:06.:08:08.

during the early years of the Troubles, but this

:08:09.:08:10.

A man who was arrested and claimed he was waterboarding

:08:11.:08:13.

during questioning spoke to the BBC about it a few years ago.

:08:14.:08:19.

The water torture, putting a gun against my head and seeing if I

:08:20.:08:26.

didn't admit to killing a soldier they would have shot me dead.

:08:27.:08:27.

A group known as the hooded men have been challenging the authorities

:08:28.:08:30.

here over allegation of torture after they were

:08:31.:08:32.

And that campaign is still going through the legal process.

:08:33.:08:39.

Belfast City Council wants 66,000 more people to live here but is a

:08:40.:08:52.

bigger city a better city? GPs have been saying for some time

:08:53.:08:55.

that the profession is entering a "perfect storm" over problems

:08:56.:08:59.

with recruitment and Yesterday their union voted

:09:00.:09:02.

to ballot members on practices leaving the health service -

:09:03.:09:06.

a move that would mean As our health correspondent

:09:07.:09:09.

Marie-Louise Connolly reports, the fact that an increasing number

:09:10.:09:15.

of doctors are choosing to remain as locums is only

:09:16.:09:17.

adding to the problem. Conan Castles is typical

:09:18.:09:23.

of a growing number of GPs. As one of over 400 locums

:09:24.:09:26.

in Northern Ireland, he doesn't have a permanent position

:09:27.:09:30.

and instead opts to fill As a locum, I still see patients as

:09:31.:09:43.

any GP would and it means I can spend most of my time dealing with

:09:44.:09:45.

their medical problems. But Dr Castles also represents

:09:46.:09:45.

the growing number of GPs who don't want the same responsibilities

:09:46.:09:48.

and burdens as their forefathers. Such a move is forcing

:09:49.:09:50.

practices to adjust. There are a lot of negatives. A

:09:51.:10:03.

large financial burden, especially people in retirement, spiralling

:10:04.:10:10.

workload, taking away from tiny could be seeing patients. The

:10:11.:10:13.

flexibility being a locum allows me to pick and choose when I want to

:10:14.:10:17.

work and the time I can take off for holiday and see family is a big

:10:18.:10:18.

plus. The British Medical Association has

:10:19.:10:19.

been warning of the perfect storm for some time over a lack

:10:20.:10:21.

of funding and recruitment. They say they're so frustrated that

:10:22.:10:24.

yesterday they voted to take another step closer to actually leaving

:10:25.:10:26.

the health service by asking members That means they'd work independently

:10:27.:10:29.

and charge patients, While that may never

:10:30.:10:35.

happen as we have already reported, what is unfolding

:10:36.:10:41.

at Bannview Practice in Portadown is a real sign that

:10:42.:10:44.

General Practice is in trouble. It's become the first local practice

:10:45.:10:47.

to be managed and funded by a health trust as opposed

:10:48.:10:50.

to being owned by GPs. This step away from how things have

:10:51.:10:59.

been traditionally done is difficult But with 15 local doctors

:11:00.:11:01.

due to retire in March, This GP due to retire in two years,

:11:02.:11:07.

he's not confident about finding Young doctor is quite rightly want

:11:08.:11:25.

to value their worklife balance, devalue their home life, they are

:11:26.:11:30.

not really willing to commit to the time and work commitment that is

:11:31.:11:35.

needed to be a partner in practice, particularly when they could earn

:11:36.:11:37.

more or less the same money working as a locum.

:11:38.:11:38.

General Practice is facing an uncertain future.

:11:39.:11:40.

GPs now have to decide whether to support tradition or play a new role

:11:41.:11:43.

But we will be keeping a close eye on what happens with GPs in the

:11:44.:11:54.

weeks and months ahead. A man who died in a crash

:11:55.:11:56.

on the Westlink yesterday afternoon was 69-year-old Victor Shaw

:11:57.:11:59.

from north Belfast. The accident happened in the lane

:12:00.:12:01.

out of the city near Roden Street. The road was closed for several

:12:02.:12:04.

hours during the afternoon Another man died on

:12:05.:12:07.

the roads last night. His motorbike was involved

:12:08.:12:11.

in a crash with another vehicle on the Lough Fey Road near

:12:12.:12:13.

Cookstown. Two men and a woman escaped injury

:12:14.:12:19.

in a pipe bombing on a house Terrified neighbours say it left

:12:20.:12:22.

their children deeply traumatised. Here's our north-west

:12:23.:12:28.

reporter, Keiron Tourish. Police were carrying out an

:12:29.:12:42.

extensive search of the gardens in the mainly Loyalist Irish street

:12:43.:12:46.

after this pipe bomb attack last night. Two men and two women escaped

:12:47.:12:51.

injury after the device exploded at 20 past ten in the garden of a

:12:52.:12:55.

house. People say they were left badly shaken. The remnants of the

:12:56.:13:01.

device were removed by army bomb experts. John lives two doors away

:13:02.:13:05.

with his heavily pregnant wife and their two girls, aged five and

:13:06.:13:12.

seven. What ever was throwing meet a bang, the rest of it was lying. We

:13:13.:13:17.

thought the whole thing might have went off so we didn't know what to

:13:18.:13:22.

do. The children were terrorised and scared to come back to the house

:13:23.:13:26.

this morning. My wife is pregnant and I thought there was going to be

:13:27.:13:32.

an early delivery last night. We're going to see if she can see her

:13:33.:13:38.

doctor today. Up to 40 people were moved to a nearby community centre.

:13:39.:13:42.

Detectives investigating this attack have issued an appeal for

:13:43.:13:45.

information, they want to hear from anyone who noticed any suspicious

:13:46.:13:51.

activity in this area around 10pm last night to get in touch.

:13:52.:13:53.

Three men, including the Lurgan republican Colin Duffy,

:13:54.:13:55.

will stand trial later this year on a range of terrorist related

:13:56.:13:59.

offences connected to a gun attack on police officers in north

:14:00.:14:03.

49-year-old Colin Duffy, from Forest Glade in Lurgan,

:14:04.:14:12.

is accused of directing terrorism and belonging to a banned

:14:13.:14:16.

His co-accused, 55-year-old Alex McCrory of Sliabh Dubh View

:14:17.:14:23.

In addition, McCrory and a third man, 48-year-old

:14:24.:14:28.

Henry Fitzsimmons of no fixed abode, are charged with attempting

:14:29.:14:31.

to murder police officers and possessing ammunition.

:14:32.:14:36.

The charges are linked to a gun attack on a police patrol

:14:37.:14:39.

No-one was injured, but at least ten shots struck the vehicles.

:14:40.:14:44.

The court was told the three accused were secretly recorded

:14:45.:14:48.

the day after the shooting in a park in Lurgan.

:14:49.:14:53.

The court also heard that more covert recordings were made of Duffy

:14:54.:14:56.

They were released on continuing bail.

:14:57.:15:04.

The trial is expected to begin later this year and will last

:15:05.:15:07.

A mother refused bereavement allowance because she wasn't married

:15:08.:15:24.

to her partner who died is to take her case to the Supreme Court. She

:15:25.:15:30.

is from County Antrim and says she is the victim of discrimination. The

:15:31.:15:33.

Court of Appeal in Belfast has refused to allow her to take her

:15:34.:15:40.

case. She said she could petition it directly in London.

:15:41.:15:41.

We catch up with the local man he was off to London to take up a big

:15:42.:15:49.

job in the world of music. Belfast City Council wants more

:15:50.:15:52.

people to live in the city to try to bring the population up

:15:53.:15:55.

to pre-Troubles levels. They aim to have another

:15:56.:15:57.

66,000 residents BBC Newsline's Mark

:15:58.:15:59.

Simpson has more. 50 years ago, Belfast had a lot more

:16:00.:16:17.

people. They weren't just working shopping in the city, we lived in

:16:18.:16:22.

Belfast. Around 100,000 more people than live here now. The council is

:16:23.:16:27.

trying to get people back and it's got a number in mind, an extra

:16:28.:16:34.

66,000 by the year 2035. It looks ambitious but the council is

:16:35.:16:37.

confident of reaching its target. That takes Belfast back to where it

:16:38.:16:41.

was in terms of scale and when you look at other capital cities within

:16:42.:16:46.

the UK and beyond, there is a general urbanisation and gravitation

:16:47.:16:49.

towards the city. That is based on its role as an economic driver and

:16:50.:16:55.

when Belfast succeeds, we would suggest other parts of Northern

:16:56.:16:58.

Ireland succeed as well. Although there is no detail yet about the

:16:59.:17:01.

plan, the initial reaction has been positive. Blind we could have been

:17:02.:17:07.

doing this why this place has been blown apart 2030 years ago. We have

:17:08.:17:12.

a lot of catching up to do. We lost four decades in this city. I think

:17:13.:17:19.

it would be welcome, things are changing in the city over the last

:17:20.:17:22.

few decades and this is an opportunity to link it with the

:17:23.:17:25.

Belfast agenda and make sure community voices are heard and

:17:26.:17:29.

people's voices are heard in the future. More houses could mean an

:17:30.:17:32.

end to some of the wasteland around the city and there is plenty of

:17:33.:17:37.

that. Questions remain about who is going to paper at all and whether

:17:38.:17:41.

the infrastructure in Belfast could actually cope with a bigger city.

:17:42.:17:46.

That is all still to be worked out. A public consultation will begin

:17:47.:17:52.

soon. With power-sharing at Stormont in jeopardy, Belfast City Council

:17:53.:17:55.

could soon be the largest elected body in Northern Ireland. It has a

:17:56.:17:59.

lot of work to do and its role could soon be even more important.

:18:00.:18:03.

Fruit and veg, bus fares and beer are all getting more expensive -

:18:04.:18:08.

Some economists are predicating that inflation could hit 4%

:18:09.:18:14.

Part of the reason is the weakening of the pound, which makes our

:18:15.:18:20.

Here's our economics and business Editor John Campbell.

:18:21.:18:31.

Every week, this wholesaler imports at least 20 lorry loads of produce

:18:32.:18:40.

from mainland Europe. The pay their Spanish, French and Italian

:18:41.:18:44.

suppliers in euros. Since the Brexit vote, the pound has weakened

:18:45.:18:47.

substantially against the euro so for a business like this, the costs

:18:48.:18:55.

automatically increase. It has increased by 15%. We are having to

:18:56.:19:03.

absorb some of that cost, we have two pass on the cost to our

:19:04.:19:09.

customers. Bad weather in the key growing areas across Europe has also

:19:10.:19:12.

pushed up the price of fruit and veg. That is adding even more

:19:13.:19:18.

inflationary pressure. It is not just the price of food which is

:19:19.:19:23.

going up. The cost of... Has more than doubled from its record lows

:19:24.:19:28.

over the last year. That trend of rising prices is likely to continue

:19:29.:19:33.

to rate this year. The official stats shoe we have enjoyed very low

:19:34.:19:37.

inflation recently. In 2011, inflation was running at more than

:19:38.:19:41.

5%. It then headed on a long downward path. It was effectively

:19:42.:19:48.

zero for all of 2015 and not much higher for most of last year. It is

:19:49.:19:54.

now heading up. It is currently at 1.6% and could be above 3% by the

:19:55.:19:57.

end of the year. That will hit living standards. Motor insurance

:19:58.:20:04.

has risen by 10% year-on-year at the end of last month. Domestic heating

:20:05.:20:08.

oil is up by 35% over the last year. The more consumers have to spend on

:20:09.:20:12.

these goods, the less money they are going to have for other things. What

:20:13.:20:17.

we are going to see is a squeeze on your disposable incomes. The biggest

:20:18.:20:21.

problem will be for those on low fixed incomes, such as benefit

:20:22.:20:25.

claimants. That's because of a policy put in place by the last

:20:26.:20:32.

Chancellor. Worked age benefits for the next year. If you take on

:20:33.:20:40.

jobseeker's allowance, they got ?73 this year and they will continue to

:20:41.:20:44.

get that same amount of money up until 2020 and then that person has

:20:45.:20:47.

to cope with daily living expenses, keeping a roof over their head, food

:20:48.:20:51.

on the table, that is why year on year they are going to be

:20:52.:20:55.

effectively worse off. Some of the recent rises in fruit and veg prices

:20:56.:20:58.

could be reversed as the weather improves. But make no mistake,

:20:59.:21:03.

across the economy, prices are heading up.

:21:04.:21:05.

One of the biggest jobs in British music is being taken up by the man

:21:06.:21:08.

who's been in charge of opera here for the past six years.

:21:09.:21:13.

Oliver Mears is leaving Nortnern Ireland Opera

:21:14.:21:15.

the youngest ever director of London's Royal Opera House.

:21:16.:21:20.

Our arts correspondent Robbie Meredith caught up with him

:21:21.:21:23.

Final rehearsals for Northern Ireland Opera's new show

:21:24.:21:34.

Powder Her Face at Belfast's Lyric Theatre.

:21:35.:21:37.

But also the last act for their director Oliver Mears.

:21:38.:21:42.

Fittingly, for a man who once put an opera singer among fans

:21:43.:21:45.

at Cliftonville football ground, he's leaving Northern Ireland

:21:46.:21:53.

for the music world's equivalent of Manchester United -

the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden.

:21:56.:22:04.

We start with the staff of two, over the years we've gone up to five.

:22:05.:22:11.

It's a small staff and the scale was considerably bigger. The entire work

:22:12.:22:15.

for it is just over 1000 people and not all of those people work for the

:22:16.:22:19.

opera, some of them work pretty badly as well. A huge technical

:22:20.:22:23.

department, the chorus, the orchestra, it is a huge jump in

:22:24.:22:24.

scale. He came here as the first

:22:25.:22:24.

head of Northern Ireland And in that time he's

:22:25.:22:27.

tried to rid the art By taking work to places like

:22:28.:22:39.

Belfast zoo and to places like football grounds, it makes it clear

:22:40.:22:43.

that Opera can happen anywhere and can appeal to any kind of audience.

:22:44.:22:44.

Powder Her Face is an opera all about an aristocrat

:22:45.:22:47.

A fitting finale, as Oliver will face much more

:22:48.:22:50.

The principles are the same. It's about communicating, passion for

:22:51.:23:03.

this great artform and it's about conveying this idea that Opera is

:23:04.:23:07.

for everyone, it doesn't matter if it's small or big scale.

:23:08.:23:09.

It's his final curtain here, but Oliver Mears is set

:23:10.:23:11.

The Belfast boxer Carl Frampton says he's expecting between four and five

:23:12.:23:19.

thousand of his fans to be Las Vegas for his defence of the WBA title.

:23:20.:23:24.

He meets Leo Santa Cruz this weekend.

:23:25.:23:29.

Following their initial encounter last summer Frampton

:23:30.:23:31.

was named the prestigious Ring Magazine's Fighter of The Year.

:23:32.:23:34.

Head lining here on the world-famous Las Vegas strip is reserved for the

:23:35.:23:53.

biggest names in boxing and following his historic victory over

:23:54.:23:57.

Leo Santa Cruz in July, Karel Frampton joined that elite band of

:23:58.:24:02.

fighters. Over the next 48 hours, thousands of fanatical fans will

:24:03.:24:08.

arrive here in Nevada for what could prove to be a career defining night

:24:09.:24:13.

not just for the Belfast boxer but also for his Mexican opponent. Leo

:24:14.:24:18.

Santa Cruz lost his undefeated record and world title in the

:24:19.:24:24.

previous contest, but the Irish boxer maintains he learned more from

:24:25.:24:28.

their bite and his ability to adapt his tactics, the result this round

:24:29.:24:42.

will be exactly the same. If I can beat Leo Santa Cruz, that's even

:24:43.:24:45.

more impressive if I can do it in style. I can't wait to get going.

:24:46.:24:50.

How much of a bearing will the first might have on this one's it how will

:24:51.:24:55.

have an effect psychologically, I will have the edge. When I fight

:24:56.:25:00.

different opponents the second time I always improve. I believe I'm

:25:01.:25:04.

better at boxing them Leo Santa Cruz and I want to use that on the night.

:25:05.:25:10.

We will have all the big fight build-up on tomorrow's programme as

:25:11.:25:15.
