BBC Northern Ireland - for the first time - will take part in Belfast Pride this year. 

The Nolan Show can also reveal this morning that BBC Northern Ireland has offered BBC staff the opportunity to discuss individual programmes being branded in Belfast Pride. 

BBC NI management has sent a note asking staff to have a discussion with them if they want their shows to be represented.  The note says  "If you're part of a team that makes BBC programmes, you may like to promote your show/brand in the parade. "

MLA and former broadcaster  Mike Nesbitt reacts.
