The deadline to form a new power-sharing Executive | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
has been pushed back until after the General Election. | :00:11. | :00:12. | |
It is thought it will now be the end of June. | :00:13. | :00:17. | |
The Secretary of State had set early May as the deadline | :00:18. | :00:19. | |
And the SDLP leader has been giving more detail on his comments | :00:20. | :00:24. | |
yesterday about his plan to form an anti-Brexit alliance. | :00:25. | :00:26. | |
Our political correspondent Enda McClafferty reports. | :00:27. | :00:39. | |
Politicians are getting an extension. They had been working | :00:40. | :00:44. | |
towards a deadline early next month to rebuild the power-sharing | :00:45. | :00:51. | |
Executive. Though they will have another month to complete the | :00:52. | :01:03. | |
mission. He has simply stretched the same we hope to form a new | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
executive. The time over under the current law has expired. But Sinn | :01:10. | :01:17. | |
Fein say they are big questions about the commitment of the | :01:18. | :01:19. | |
government to restoring the institutions. It is fair to say that | :01:20. | :01:28. | |
is a growing belief from the nationalist community that the | :01:29. | :01:29. | |
British government did not want this to work because they did not want | :01:30. | :01:37. | |
the people here taking a firm stand on Brexit, because the people here | :01:38. | :01:44. | |
voted for us to stay within the European Union. I am disappointed | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
that deadlines for the beginning of next month are unlikely not to be | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
bit. But there is an obligation on everybody to make sure that the | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
executive and assembly are re-established here at the earliest | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
opportunity. Much of the talk today was about alliances. Sinn Fein Said | :02:05. | :02:19. | |
they were willing to discuss them. But the SDLP said they wanted an | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
alliance of parties opposed to Brexit. We will not form a sectarian | :02:25. | :02:32. | |
pact with one party which would exclude another part of the | :02:33. | :02:38. | |
community. Other parties may want to do that. We want to form an alliance | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
against Brexit. We want the Prime Minister to be a weird that the | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
people here do not want that. No decision has been taken is to bring | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
the current process will start, but the parties still feel a call will | :02:52. | :03:00. | |
be made long before polling day on June the 8th. | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
A five-year-old child was so traumatised by a gun attack | :03:06. | :03:07. | |
on her west Belfast home that she stopped breathing | :03:08. | :03:09. | |
for a time, according to her cousin who was with her during the attack. | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
The shots were fired at the house in Atch-namona | :03:14. | :03:15. | |
Crescent late last night. Martin Cassidy reports. | :03:16. | :03:17. | |
About 10pm last night, shots were fired at a terraced house | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
here in the Crescent and there were two people | :03:21. | :03:22. | |
in the house at the time - one a young woman and also | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
I just thought someone had put the fist and banged | :03:26. | :03:37. | |
But then there was another one, then another one. | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
I just stood in the room and my cousin | :03:43. | :03:44. | |
They escaped injury, but the little girl was traumatised by | :03:45. | :04:03. | |
They were beating on the heart of the five-year-old. | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
Eventually, she did start breathing again. But the five-year-old did | :04:07. | :04:21. | |
stop believing. The attack has been | :04:22. | :04:23. | |
condemned by Sinn Fein. It is clear the attackers who fired | :04:24. | :04:32. | |
through the windows of the house did not care who the target was, | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
there was a young woman with a five-year-old and we're | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
grateful none of them were harmed. People in this area and the family | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
are asking why this attack happened, because no-one has | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
explained to them why it occurred The people who carried out | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
this attack must come Hiddink police enquiries | :04:48. | :05:03. | |
A public meeting has taken place in Roslea in protest at the closure | :05:04. | :05:10. | |
The former GP retired last year and patients have | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
now been transferred to a surgery in Lisnaskea. | :05:15. | :05:15. | |
The meeting heard from people who now face a round trip of | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
30 miles in an area poorly served by public transport. | :05:19. | :05:21. | |
But they were told no doctors applied to take | :05:22. | :05:23. | |
Young doctors they want to work in group practices. They are aware of | :05:24. | :05:38. | |
governments and providing best practice and they think that can be | :05:39. | :05:46. | |
best provided with an a system of peer support. And it is very | :05:47. | :05:58. | |
difficult to find the law comes. We are establishing a good practice in | :05:59. | :05:59. | |
this new arrangement. A former international cricketer has | :06:00. | :06:01. | |
been found guilty of possessing a hammer and assaulting | :06:02. | :06:04. | |
a doorman outside a pub 61-year-old Rodney Ontong, | :06:05. | :06:06. | |
who is originally from South Africa but now lives at Elm Court | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
in the city, was fined ?350. The court heard that the doorman has | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
left his job and his doctor believes he now has | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
post-traumatic stress disorder. People living near a picturesque bay | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
in County Antrim are opposing plans to land power cables | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
from an proposed tidal The company says Murlough Bay | :06:24. | :06:25. | |
is just one option and there will be planning conditions attached | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
to any approval. Here is our Agriculture | :06:30. | :06:31. | |
and Environment Correspondent, It is one of the most picturesque | :06:32. | :06:32. | |
places along the coastline. A designated place of | :06:33. | :06:42. | |
scientific interest. It also has strong sea curerent, | :06:43. | :06:46. | |
hence its attaction The final design for the tidal | :06:47. | :06:48. | |
energy scheme has not been put forward, but is believed to include | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
certain elements which would stick Given that this is such | :06:54. | :06:55. | |
a breathtaking part of the countryside, there | :06:56. | :07:02. | |
are reservations about how the power cables get on to the land and get | :07:03. | :07:04. | |
hooked up into the grid. And that is where | :07:05. | :07:21. | |
the problems start. Patrick is worried about the cables | :07:22. | :07:28. | |
coming ashore here and a new power station having to be | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
built on the cliffs. It would create a massive | :07:32. | :07:37. | |
scar on the landscape. It would also take | :07:38. | :07:44. | |
many years to achieve. If that is really the thinking | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
about this proposal, there are certain to be | :07:51. | :07:53. | |
a lot of objections. The other would be a much longer | :07:54. | :07:59. | |
and more expensive undersea cable If this gets the go-ahead, | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
there will be a range of conditions We hope to work with the various | :08:05. | :08:12. | |
residents, interest groups and licensing authorities, | :08:13. | :08:18. | |
with regard to that. The energy company | :08:19. | :08:24. | |
has only applied for permission for what it | :08:25. | :08:26. | |
wants to build at sea. A plan for the onshore substation | :08:27. | :08:30. | |
is expected to be submitted But most 15-year-olds | :08:31. | :08:32. | |
in Northern Ireland are said to That is the key finding | :08:33. | :08:46. | |
of a large-scale international study of students' well-being | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
by the Organisation for Economic Our education correspondent | :08:51. | :08:52. | |
Robbie Meredith has more. There are 700 teenagers | :08:53. | :08:57. | |
preparing for their GCSEs at the Easter School run | :08:58. | :08:59. | |
by the West Belfast They're obviously hard-working, | :09:00. | :09:01. | |
but are they happy? The OECD asked half a million | :09:02. | :09:07. | |
pupils in 70 countries to score how satisfied | :09:08. | :09:09. | |
with their lives they were. From a zero, which meant | :09:10. | :09:11. | |
they were very unhappy, to a ten, which meant | :09:12. | :09:14. | |
they were very happy indeed. The average life satisfaction | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
score in Northern Ireland was 7.24 out of ten, | :09:18. | :09:19. | |
around the European average but higher than England, | :09:20. | :09:21. | |
Scotland and Wales. But what about young | :09:22. | :09:22. | |
people in West Belfast? I am working hard | :09:23. | :09:34. | |
and I have support. Have good relationships | :09:35. | :09:44. | |
with my friends. When you test yourself | :09:45. | :10:02. | |
and get the results you want, that also gives | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
you motivation. The study also found | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
pupils performed best when they talked regularly | :10:14. | :10:15. | |
with their parents about school. He says you should go and get | :10:16. | :10:24. | |
help with your GCSEs. School can only help the children | :10:25. | :10:30. | |
for so long in a day and then they The strategy at school is one | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
we hope will be carried through That is what we are | :10:34. | :10:37. | |
attempting to do. It wasn't all plain sailing, | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
there are still worries about exams and bullying remains a problem | :10:42. | :10:44. | |
but what this study suggests is that contrary to some of the stereotypes, | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
the majority of our teenagers are happy, ambitious | :10:48. | :10:49. | |
and highly motivated. The next fight for the Belfast boxer | :10:50. | :10:59. | |
Michael Conlan will be in Chicago and he has confirmed that his second | :11:00. | :11:02. | |
professional bout will on May 26. The name of his opponent | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
has yet to be released, although he is likely to be a step | :11:08. | :11:09. | |
up in class from Tim Ibarra, who Conlan comfortably defeated | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
in his pro debut in New York Now, what does the weather have | :11:14. | :11:15. | |
in store for the next few days? Good evening. Temperatures in the 15 | :11:16. | :11:43. | |
Mark today, but temperatures going to be a bit lower over the next few | :11:44. | :11:49. | |
days. Overnight and eight, more persistent drizzle developing across | :11:50. | :11:55. | |
the north and west. A damp start on Friday. Some patchy rain on and off | :11:56. | :12:05. | |
during the course of the day. The yearly rain and drizzle should ease | :12:06. | :12:13. | |
off, particularly in the East. This area of rain in Scotland will push | :12:14. | :12:20. | |
down south during the day to waters. The Republic of Ireland enjoying | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
some lovely spring sunshine. Also sunshine across eastern coastal | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
areas of England. Across much of the UK, a lot of cloud cover. | :12:31. | :12:40. | |
Temperatures down slightly on today. Not bad for this time of year, | :12:41. | :12:47. | |
however, 12-15dC. It should dry up over the weekend. Temperatures | :12:48. | :12:57. | |
dropping. Much called arriving next week. That will be accompanied by | :12:58. | :13:06. | |
heavy showers. A low pressure becoming the dominant feature from | :13:07. | :13:12. | |
Sunday night into next week. Coming down from the Arctic Circle. A | :13:13. | :13:13. | |
significant drop in temperature. Our next BBC Newsline | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
