(AQW 10799/11-15) Mr P Robinson and Mr M McGuinness (The First Minister and deputy First Minister): A summary of progress on each of the five sub-groups is set out below: (i) Safeguarding The Safeguarding Board Act (NI) 2011 provides a legislative framework for the creation of a new regional Children’s Safeguarding Board for Northern Ireland (SBNI) and a Committee structure of the Board. This multi-disciplinary, inter-agency body will be the main statutory mechanism for agreeing how members co-operate to deliver safeguarding and for ensuring the effectiveness of what they do. The Department of Health, Social Services and Public Safety (DHSSPS) will publish guidance for the SBNI before it comes into operation. (ii) NEETS The Department for Employment and Learning (DEL) has consulted on its Pathways to Success Strategy which set a broad strategic direction and supports cross-departmental actions to reduce the number of 16 to 19 year-olds who are outside education, employment or training, or at risk of being so. It recognises the need to put in place structures or mechanisms to co-ordinate and make these more effective. (iii) Special Educational Needs Work on this issue focused on improving transitions for children with Special Educational Needs. This included: the transition from school to the range of post-school settings eg further and higher education, training, social care; preparing for independent living eg housing and benefits; and those who come within the youth justice system. (iv) Early Years In line with direction from the Ministerial Sub-Committee, the Early Years sub-group produced an action plan to monitor progress on aspects of Early Years work. The action plan drafted by the Early Years sub-group identifies DE and DHSSPS as the key departments responsible for Early Years Services. The Sub-Group has not met since 2008, but the actions proposed have been taken forward by other means in the absence of any formal meetings. Officials from DE have continued to work closely with DHSSPS on a range of relevant key issues. The action plan was agreed by the MSC in 2009, the Executive in March 2010, and updated in 2011. WA 193 Friday 29 June 2012 Written Answers (v) Vulnerable Young People Work has focused on young people at risk of becoming involved in anti-social behaviour and entering the juvenile justice system, with the Department of Justice taking the lead. This work is now being progressed through the Children and Young People’s Strategic Partnership and the Regional Steering Group on Community Safety. Both of these Groups bring key agencies together to co-ordinate actions that support children and young people. Apprenticeship Programmes Mr Eastwood asked the First Minister and deputy First Minister to detail (i) the apprenticeship programmes available within their Department; (ii) the apprenticeship programmes provided by their Department; (iii) the number of people currently enrolled in these programmes; and (iv) the number of places available on the programmes. (AQW 12006/11-15) Mr P Robinson and Mr M McGuinness: (i) OFMDFM, together with other departments, participates in the Programme Led Apprenticeship (PLA) Programme which is run by the Department for Employment and Learning. (ii) Nil (iii) Nil (iv) Three PLA places have been identified in OFMDFM.

  • My “Brick Wall”
    My “Brick Wall” The search for my paternal great, great grandfather “William Flack, a Soldier”. By Dr Edmund (known as “Ted”) Flack. BEc., PhD., JP (Qual) My “Brick Wall” in the search for my paternal great great grandfather. In this report I set out the evidence gathered over the last 20 years in my search to identify my great great grandfather, William Flack, the father of Captain William “Billy” Flack. First, I reproduce a paternal pedigree showing my relationship with Billy Flack and his relationship with his father William Flack, and his mother, Elizabeth Flack, born about 1790 in Ireland. A separate report on the life of Captain William Flack born 1 April 1810 is available. For the purpose of clarity, I will refer to my Great Grandfather, Captain William Flack as “Billy”. 1 What do we know about Billy Flack’s parents? There are three pieces of documentary evidence that provide the basis for the search as follows: 1. The first is Billy Flack’s original enlistment documents created when he enlisted in the 63rd Regiment of Foot in Bailieborough, County Cavan, Ireland on 17th February 1831. In that document it records 782 Pte William Flack as 21 years old, born in “the Parish of Killan in or near the town of Balyburrow in the County of Cavan”. Note 1. It will noted that Billy Flack signed the document with his “X” mark, indicating that he could probably not read or write and that therefore the recruiting sergeant probably filled in the details by recording Billy Flack’s verbal answers to this questions about age and place of birth.

  • Helens Tower Sleeps 2 - Clandeboye Estate, Bangor, Co Down
    Helens Tower Sleeps 2 - Clandeboye Estate, Bangor, Co Down. Situation: Presentation: Helen's Tower perched high above the rolling hills of Co Down, is an enchanting three storey stone tower nestled deep in the woods of the Clandeboye Estate. Standing on top of the world with panoramic views of the surrounding landscape, one can see as far as distant Scottish shores from the top of Helen's Tower. La Tour d’Hélène perchée au-dessus des collines de Co Down, est une charmante tours en pierre à trois étages, niché dans les bois du domaine de Clandeboye. Elle est niché sur le toit du monde avec une vue panoramique sur le paysage environnant, on peut voir aussi loin que les rivages écossais à partir du haut de la tour d'Hélène. History: Built in 1848 by Frederick Lord Dufferin, 5th Baron of Dufferin and Ava in honour of his mother Helen Selina Blackwood, Helen's Tower has since been immortalized by Tennyson in the poem of the same name. Designed by architect William Burn and constructed in 1848-1850 as a famine relief project, Helen's Tower helped relieve unemployment at this time. The tower has taken on an unforeseen poignancy, as an almost exact replica of it, the Ulster Tower, was built at Thiepval in 1921 to honour the men of the 36th (Ulster) Division who fell at the Battle of the Somme. Clandeboye Estate was used for army training during the First World War, and the 36th (Ulster) Division trained beside Helen's Tower before leaving for France.

Despite strenuous efforts, they failed to conquer the north west of Ireland and this part of Ireland remained in Irish hands until the end of the 16th century. The O’Neills and O’Donnells controlled Tyrone and Donegal and, from about 1300, the Maguires became the dominant clan in an area similar to the Crowning of a Maguire Chieftain at Cornashee, near Lisnaskea.

In the rest of the country Anglo Norman influence had declined considerably by the 15th century, their control at that time extending only to the walled towns and to a small area around Dublin, known as the Pale. However, from the middle of the 16th century England gradually extended its control over the country until the only remaining Gaelic stronghold was in the central and western parts of the Province of Ulster. Gaelic Society Gaelic Ireland was a patchwork of independent kingdoms, each ruled by a chieftain and bound by a common set of social, religious and legal traditions.
