Police are appealing to a prisoner who was released by mistake to the | :00:00. | :00:19. | |
Prison Service to give himself up. Micah Lawrence Smith, 38, was on | :00:20. | :00:24. | |
remand accused of murder. He is described as dangerous and was last | :00:25. | :00:25. | |
seen in the Belfast area on Tuesday. The police have taken | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
the unusual step to publish his photograph and make an appeal | :00:29. | :00:32. | |
for his whereabouts. They say he's dangerous with | :00:33. | :00:34. | |
an extensive history of violence. He was last seen in the Belfast area | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
around 2pm yesterday afternoon. Michael Smith applied for bail two | :00:37. | :00:39. | |
days ago via video link. The police say he was | :00:40. | :00:43. | |
freed by mistake. The Prison Service say | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
they're investigating. We have a number of lines | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
of inquiry we are following. And I hope that some of them | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
will maybe lead to us Michael Smith, but it is about | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
members of the public, if they see him at all, or if he | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
himself is watching, He's awaiting trial accused | :01:03. | :01:04. | |
of murdering a 28-year-old man at Walmer Street off | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
the Ormeau Road last year. Stephen Carson was killed | :01:10. | :01:11. | |
while he was eating dinner with his partner and nine-year-old | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
son at their home in Walmer Street. The victim tried | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
to hide but was shot in the head The police are urging the public not | :01:19. | :01:20. | |
to approach the prisoner The DUP leader Arlene Foster has | :01:21. | :01:25. | |
suggested that Sinn Fein has not raised the issue for her stepping | :01:26. | :01:33. | |
aside in any of the two Mrs Foster was speaking | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
after the latest round of political talks at Stormont aimed at restoring | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
the power sharing executive. The Irish Foreign Affairs Minister | :01:41. | :01:44. | |
Charlie Flanagan has warned that they are operating under | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
a strict time frame. Here is our Political | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
Correspondent Stephen Walker. And seasonal change is clearly | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
on display at Stormont. But what of the political | :01:56. | :02:14. | |
temperature? Today, Charlie Flanagan, | :02:15. | :02:31. | |
the Irish Foreign Affairs Minister, We are operating under | :02:32. | :02:31. | |
a very strict time frame. I detect a willingness on the part | :02:32. | :02:31. | |
of all parties involved to sit down, engage constructively | :02:32. | :02:31. | |
on what is a challenge. Charlie Flanagan's meetings included | :02:32. | :02:32. | |
talks with the DUP leader Arlene Foster who met him | :02:33. | :02:32. | |
with the Secretary of Afterwards Arlene Foster suggested | :02:33. | :02:32. | |
that Sinn Fein had not Well, maybe they didn't feel | :02:33. | :02:35. | |
they had to, Mark. I am not saying that it's | :02:36. | :02:42. | |
not an issue for them. It may well be an issue for them | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
but as I have always said, when we are telling | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
each other's parties because we will obviously | :02:51. | :03:00. | |
want to have an indication around | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
Sinn Fein All the parties | :03:06. | :03:06. | |
had a series of meetings today Sinn Fein insist when it comes | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
to legacy matters the discussions The public rightly | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
are demanding delivery on equality issues, | :03:14. | :03:21. | |
on the legacy issues. That's what we are interested | :03:22. | :03:23. | |
in and that's what we are putting all of our efforts | :03:24. | :03:26. | |
into dealing with these issues. We don't want to go | :03:27. | :03:28. | |
through the process of We need to see delivery | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
on these keyish use. We need to see delivery | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
on these key issues. On legacy, the SDLP say this | :03:36. | :03:37. | |
is the time to strike a deal. Let's make sure that the Irish | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
Government are fully involved and that the victims and survivors | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
are fully involved, as well. We know how to make progress | :03:44. | :03:45. | |
on legacy, it needs people now to move a bit and be | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
prepared to open up the books For James Brokenshire, | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
it has been a busy few hours. He began it in London on Budget Day | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
and ended it in Belfast. There have been helpful discussions | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
that have taken place And a real commitment that I have | :04:02. | :04:03. | |
discerned from the parties to get back into government, | :04:04. | :04:11. | |
to get back into an Executive. With the involvement of two | :04:12. | :04:18. | |
governments and the parties, it is inevitable there are going to be | :04:19. | :04:20. | |
many, many meetings. And Charlie Flanagan was unable to | :04:21. | :04:33. | |
see everyone who wanted to today. He is staying in Belfast and tomorrow, | :04:34. | :04:35. | |
the talking will continue. A scheme which was to allow older | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
teachers to take early retirement and be replaced by those more | :04:40. | :04:42. | |
recently qualified has been suspended by the | :04:43. | :04:44. | |
Department for Education. It means that around 100 teachers | :04:45. | :04:46. | |
who expected to retire this year Here's our Education | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
Correspondent Robbie Meredith The investing in teaching workforce | :04:50. | :05:14. | |
scheme was to allow up to 120 senior teaches to go, with jobs taken by | :05:15. | :05:21. | |
teachers qualified in the last five years but it is now said the scheme | :05:22. | :05:22. | |
will not go ahead as it is facing a legal challenge. That means a | :05:23. | :05:23. | |
teacher who qualified before 2012 cannot apply for a job under the | :05:24. | :05:24. | |
scheme, claiming it is discrimination. The department is | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
protesting that -- contesting that but the consequences will be around | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
100 senior teachers due to retire this summer now being told they will | :05:32. | :05:37. | |
have to change their plans, by schools that had been planning for | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
younger teachers to replace them and they will have to stop. | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
Some self-employed people will face a higher tax bill as a result | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
Philip Hammond is increasing the National Insurance contributions | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
About 130,000 people here are self-employed. | :05:52. | :05:58. | |
That's just over 15% of the total workforce. | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
The biggest impact is expected in the construction sector, | :06:02. | :06:04. | |
where about one in five work for themselves. | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
A County Tyrone cattle dealer who scammed an 83-year-old | :06:09. | :06:11. | |
farmer has been given a suspended prison sentence. | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
A judge told David Lee he'd also shown complete disregard for rules | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
Our Agriculture Correspondent Conor Macauley reports. | :06:20. | :06:28. | |
Patrick McGorrey and his son James had arranged to buy eight cattle, | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
but they didn't know the seller was planning to scam them. | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
83-year-old Patrick was at home alone after dark, when the dealer | :06:35. | :06:39. | |
arrived unexpectedly to deliver them - with two extra animals | :06:40. | :06:41. | |
The cattle cost ?4,000 but weren't what had been ordered. | :06:42. | :06:47. | |
And some were sick, leaving the family with a ?2,000 vet bill. | :06:48. | :06:58. | |

56-year-old David Lee of Carrickaness Road, Dungannon, | :07:03. | :07:07. | |

the rules around animal sales and movements - | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
rules put in place to protect the food chain, human health | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
The judge said he found it alarming that someone like him could be | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
The court heard he sold 3,000 animals in a ten-month period. | :07:25. | :07:32. | |
Breaking the rules is taken seriously by the department. | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
It undermines the integrity of animal traceability | :07:36. | :07:37. | |
which is the bedrock of Northern Ireland's reputation | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
Traceability is of vital importance to provide food chain information | :07:42. | :07:48. | |
Much more springlike weather today. Jeff Astle can tell us if it will | :07:49. | :08:27. | |
last. Wasn't it a lovely day, and the good news is that tomorrow will | :08:28. | :08:28. | |
be just as good. This was the scene in Belfast this morning, captured by | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
our weather watcher, beautiful blue skies and we will see more tomorrow. | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
Overnight, a bit of rain across the north coast and in some clearing | :08:36. | :08:39. | |
skies, so the chilly fields of the night, too breezy for a frost and | :08:40. | :08:44. | |
tomorrow is another great day, dry, mild, a little bit more cloud later | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
on in the day through the morning -- but through the morning, very nice | :08:50. | :08:52. | |
indeed, plenty of bright blue skies and temperatures of ten, maybe 11 | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
degrees and a little less breeze. As we go through into the afternoon, we | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
will start to see a bit more in the way of cloud and that's a sign of a | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
weather front approaching. It's this weather frontier that will gradually | :09:07. | :09:10. | |
track its way north but generally across the British Isles, very nice | :09:11. | :09:13. | |
day, a few showers across the north of Scotland that elsewhere, and | :09:14. | :09:18. | |
sunny with very light winds and temperatures in the middle teens. | :09:19. | :09:22. | |
Overnight, that rain works its way in, introduces some more milder, | :09:23. | :09:25. | |
some damp air, meaning Friday will have a rather different feel to it. | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
Not a write-off, because we are drawing in that mild air so while | :09:31. | :09:33. | |
things will be a bit grey and cloudy, there will always be a bit | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
of drizzle in the air. Temperatures pretty mild, 11, 12 degrees. | :09:38. | :09:41. | |
Saturday starts on a similar note that as we go through the day, | :09:42. | :09:44. | |
things will brighten up quite nicely. Temperatures will drop off | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
as we go through the weekend but at least it feels like spring. | :09:48. | :09:48. | |
