Here on BBC One, it's time
for the news where you are. | 0:00:00 | 0:00:00 | |
Hello and welcome to BBC Newsline. | 0:00:10 | 0:00:12 | |
30 years ago an IRA bomb exploded
at the Remembrance Day | 0:00:12 | 0:00:15 | |
Service in Enniskillen. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:17 | |
Today, a new memorial was unveiled
to honour the 12 who died | 0:00:17 | 0:00:21 | |
and the many more who were injured. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:23 | |
The bomb went off without warning
at a 10:45 in the morning | 0:00:23 | 0:00:26 | |
at the town's cenotaph. | 0:00:26 | 0:00:32 | |
Here's our south-west
reporter, Louise Cullen. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:42 | |
Descendants of the dead remembering
those lost here. 11 were killed and | 0:00:48 | 0:00:56 | |
812 died 13 years later and more
than 60 were injured. Those left by | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
wind came here today to remember we
will never forget and you know the | 0:00:59 | 0:01:07 | |
pain is there but you learn to get
through it day by day and year by | 0:01:07 | 0:01:14 | |
year. The loss is just so terrible.
And someone just said to me just | 0:01:14 | 0:01:24 | |
last year that the grief is the
price of love and I never heard of | 0:01:24 | 0:01:28 | |
that until -- and I never thought of
that until I heard that. A memorial | 0:01:28 | 0:01:36 | |
to the 12 dead was unveiled and the
families then went to a private | 0:01:36 | 0:01:43 | |
memorial service. Some people say
that time is a great healer and I am | 0:01:43 | 0:01:48 | |
sure that many of you here today
will say that is not true in your | 0:01:48 | 0:01:53 | |
experience. Over the passing of the
years, you learn to live what would | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
with what has happened. But I don't
think time heals wounds such as | 0:01:57 | 0:02:01 | |
ours. They were injured they were
joined by invited gears guests. I | 0:02:01 | 0:02:10 | |
think people are being reflected now
about the horrific nature of what | 0:02:10 | 0:02:15 | |
happened that day. Ten people were
connection arrested in connection | 0:02:15 | 0:02:20 | |
with the bomb but no one has ever
been charged. Greek Bateman it is | 0:02:20 | 0:02:25 | |
great regret to me that no one has
ever been charged for the bombing | 0:02:25 | 0:02:30 | |
but if new evidence comes to light
we will pursue that. The memorial | 0:02:30 | 0:02:36 | |
has now gone into storage and
agreement has to be played reached | 0:02:36 | 0:02:40 | |
on where it will be placed. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:44 | |
The public inquiry into the RHI
scheme has heard claims | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
that officials pushed ahead with it
against expert advice, | 0:02:47 | 0:02:50 | |
because their minister Arlene Foster
wanted it to start without delay. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:55 | |
The experts were so concerned
they wanted it recorded | 0:02:55 | 0:02:58 | |
that their advice had
not been heeded. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:00 | |
The inquiry was told
the accuracy of the claim | 0:03:00 | 0:03:03 | |
would need to be scrutinised. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:05 | |
Our Agriculture and
Environment Correspondent | 0:03:05 | 0:03:06 | |
Conor Macauley reports. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:11 | |
The minister in charge
of the department | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
with responsibility for this,
Arlene Foster, came under huge | 0:03:14 | 0:03:16 | |
pressure and today the enquiry heard
the claim officials pushed ahead | 0:03:16 | 0:03:21 | |
with the scheme against expert
advice because she wanted | 0:03:21 | 0:03:25 | |
to get it up and running. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
It was based on the minutes
of the conference between her | 0:03:28 | 0:03:30 | |
officials in her department and
the regulator which was helping to | 0:03:30 | 0:03:36 | |
introduce the scheme. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:40 | |
The regulator told
the enquiry it wanted her | 0:03:40 | 0:03:42 | |
officials to delay its low-cost
controls being imposed in Britain | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
could be replicated
in our regulations. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:52 | |
Ofgem personnel advised them to wait
until the regulations had | 0:03:52 | 0:03:57 | |
been amended and that would risk
the draft Northern Ireland | 0:03:57 | 0:04:01 | |
regulations currently proposed. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:06 | |
They recorded the minister's wish
to proceed without these amendments. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:15 | |
He urged a note of caution and said
the first thing was to establish | 0:04:15 | 0:04:18 | |
whether the minutes
of the teleconference | 0:04:18 | 0:04:22 | |
was accurate to that
of what had been said | 0:04:22 | 0:04:24 | |
and the next thing to | 0:04:24 | 0:04:26 | |
work out was where
officials got the idea | 0:04:26 | 0:04:28 | |
Arlene Foster was adamant it should
go ahead and was that based | 0:04:28 | 0:04:30 | |
on conversations with the Minister
and her special adviser | 0:04:30 | 0:04:33 | |
and were there records
of those conversations? | 0:04:33 | 0:04:43 | |
He said there was
a lack of evidence at | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
the moment as to whether
the warnings from Ofgem had been | 0:04:46 | 0:04:49 | |
referred up the chain of command
to ministerial level. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
The plan was to review
the regulations the summer after the | 0:04:51 | 0:04:54 | |
scheme started and update them with
the cost controls but that did not | 0:04:54 | 0:04:57 | |
happen. | 0:04:57 | 0:05:00 | |
The opening of the enquiry is long
and detailed but every day | 0:05:00 | 0:05:03 | |
it is throwing up new information
about the reasons behind the biggest | 0:05:03 | 0:05:07 | |
financial mess we have ever had. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:14 | |
Police and army bomb experts
are at the scene of a security | 0:05:14 | 0:05:17 | |
alert in East Belfast. | 0:05:17 | 0:05:18 | |
Part of Grand Parade has been closed
to traffic and it's thought a number | 0:05:18 | 0:05:23 | |
of homes have been evacuated. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:25 | |
The police are examining
a 300-yard stretch of the road | 0:05:25 | 0:05:28 | |
which runs alongside
Orangefield playing fields. | 0:05:28 | 0:05:32 | |
Two men have been killed
in separate road crashes. | 0:05:32 | 0:05:34 | |
A man in his 30s died after the car
he was a passenger in collided | 0:05:34 | 0:05:38 | |
with a lorry near Toomebridge
at about 07:00 this morning. | 0:05:38 | 0:05:42 | |
The driver is in
a critical condition. | 0:05:42 | 0:05:45 | |
And just after midnight,
an 18-year-old man died | 0:05:45 | 0:05:47 | |
in a single-vehicle crash
on the Dungannon Road, Portadown. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:52 | |
A number of business owners
in Northern Ireland have been | 0:05:52 | 0:05:55 | |
involved in off-shore tax avoidance,
a BBC investigation has revealed. | 0:05:55 | 0:06:00 | |
The information is part of the mass
leak of documents known | 0:06:00 | 0:06:03 | |
as the Paradise Papers. | 0:06:03 | 0:06:05 | |
We've been investigating one tax
avoidance scheme which involved | 0:06:05 | 0:06:08 | |
local business owners. | 0:06:08 | 0:06:10 | |
There's no suggestion
that they have acted illegally. | 0:06:10 | 0:06:12 | |
Our economics and business editor,
John Campbell reports. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:18 | |
This is Sam McCrea speaking
to the BBC ten years ago. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:25 | |
He owns a business with his wife. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:29 | |
They employ more than 150
people and turn over | 0:06:29 | 0:06:34 | |
about £20 million a year. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:36 | |
It has had help from an investment
company since 2008. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:44 | |
In 2014, the company
headquarters were | 0:06:44 | 0:06:47 | |
valued at £4 million. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:50 | |
The following year, the property
was sold for just £1. | 0:06:50 | 0:06:55 | |
The new owner was based here, | 0:06:55 | 0:06:57 | |
the Indian Ocean island of
Mauritius. | 0:06:57 | 0:07:00 | |
It was described in the accounts
as an unconnected third party. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:06 | |
They agreed they would pay this
unconnected party... | 0:07:06 | 0:07:16 | |
The BBC has seen documents
that would suggest that | 0:07:24 | 0:07:26 | |
McCrea is actually | 0:07:26 | 0:07:27 | |
controlling that company
in Mauritius and they had | 0:07:27 | 0:07:29 | |
given the valuable
property to themselves | 0:07:29 | 0:07:30 | |
in all but name. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:31 | |
And that is not the end of
the potential advantages from their | 0:07:31 | 0:07:34 | |
offshore arrangements. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:36 | |
Sam McCrea transferred
£200,000 into his | 0:07:36 | 0:07:39 | |
Northern Irish bank
account by borrowing | 0:07:39 | 0:07:42 | |
money from the company in Mauritius
he apparently controlled | 0:07:42 | 0:07:46 | |
as a loan so it would not
be liable for tax. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:52 | |
Their lawyers said... | 0:07:52 | 0:08:02 | |
Invest Ni is a shareholder in
Sam McCrea's company. | 0:08:10 | 0:08:14 | |
They said... | 0:08:14 | 0:08:24 | |
Tonight and later this
week, the Nolan Show | 0:08:32 | 0:08:35 | |
will have more on these
revelations from Mauritius. | 0:08:35 | 0:08:43 | |

The weather next with Barra Best. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:50 | |
We don't have any frost to worry
about, we have a lot of cloud and | 0:08:50 | 0:08:55 | |
patchy light rain which will keep
temperatures up to seven or 8 | 0:08:55 | 0:08:58 | |
degrees. Otherwise, a largely dry
start to did the day tomorrow with | 0:08:58 | 0:09:03 | |
sunshine coming and going back a
north-westerly wind will make it | 0:09:03 | 0:09:09 | |
feel fresh towards the north coast.
If you are travelling tomorrow, it | 0:09:09 | 0:09:12 | |
is a similar picture with plenty of
dry and sunny weather with the | 0:09:12 | 0:09:17 | |
exception of the Sun South West be
some cloud coming in gradually | 0:09:17 | 0:09:21 | |
making its way inland. But before it
makes its way to worse, we can | 0:09:21 | 0:09:25 | |
expect some dry sunny weather in the
afternoon about them to leave the | 0:09:25 | 0:09:30 | |
cloud will come and in the evening
and overnight there will be some | 0:09:30 | 0:09:33 | |
outbreaks of rain which will clear
by breakfast time on Friday. Friday | 0:09:33 | 0:09:42 | |
gets off to a promising start start
with driver cloudy weather but we | 0:09:42 | 0:09:45 | |
are expecting more rain to come in
from the south towards the end of | 0:09:45 | 0:09:48 | |
the day with colder air. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:50 | |
That's it for now. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:51 | |
