    The document discusses several news stories from Northern Ireland: 1) The DUP proposes allowing charities or private firms to take over services traditionally provided by the government, such as running prisons or providing medical care. A critic says these proposals should have been discussed earlier. 2) Police in Northern Ireland are launching an initiative called Project Kraken to combat crime on the coastline, and are urging locals to report any suspicious activity. 3) A decision to refuse a request to honor Lord Carson with a historical plaque in London has been criticized as "disgraceful" by a Unionist politician.
