with the latest news at 10.10. Now on BBC One, time for | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Good evening. Nearly 400 women from across Scotland are marking | :00:07. | :00:11. | |
International Women's Day with a convention at the Scottish | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
Parliament. Other events are being held across the country. One of the | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
key speakers at Holyrood says women still face "significant obstacles" | :00:19. | :00:20. | |
in education, employment and public life. Cameron Buttle reports. | :00:21. | :00:32. | |
Women from all over the country are here to Mark International Women's | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
Day, the theme is what women want, what women need. Today is very much | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
seen as a celebration of the achievements of women, but for those | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
campaigning for equality, there is a long way to go. There is still a lot | :00:45. | :00:51. | |
to be done, and there is a total commitment in our country that we | :00:52. | :00:56. | |
will continue that fight, until we get what is rightly ours, and | :00:57. | :01:01. | |
deservedly so. Nearly 400 women are attending the event today. | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
Organisers say they had to turn away at least another 400. They say that | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
is proof that there is a growing interest in women's issues at | :01:11. | :01:16. | |
grassroots level. Women are not a big, genus group, we have a very | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
diverse, across the Scottish society, it is important that the | :01:22. | :01:24. | |
voices of women are heard, that is as important particularly this year. | :01:25. | :01:31. | |
It is fantastic that women are coming forward from all parts of | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
Scotland, keen to get involved, and help to shape Scotland moving | :01:36. | :01:38. | |
forward. The convention aims to influence the policies which | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
directly affect women and their families. It is now planning a road | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
show around Scotland this summer. Labour are calling for a | :01:48. | :01:49. | |
Parliamentary Inquiry into the discovery of a radioactive fault at | :01:50. | :01:52. | |
Dounreay in 2012, which was only made public two years later. The | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
party want an investigation into the handling of the incident at the | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
naval nuclear reactor in Caithness. It's asking why the Scottish | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
Parliament wasn't informed, and why it was nine months before the | :02:05. | :02:06. | |
Scottish Environmental Protection Agency was told. The Shadow Scottish | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
Secretary, Margaret Curran, along with the Shadow Defence Secretary, | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
have written to the Defence Select Committee. The MoD insists there are | :02:14. | :02:21. | |
no safety concerns. Police say a body found by a walker | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
on a beach in Dumfries and Galloway has been identified as that of a | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
missing man from Annan. 30-year-old Ian Carruthers was last seen in the | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
town in January. Police had released a CCTV image of Mr Carruthers. His | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
body was discovered on the shore at the village of Portling on Friday. | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
A 15-year-old boy has been seriously injured in a crash in Angus. He was | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
in a car which left the road and hit a tree between Forfar and Carnoustie | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
last night. Now sport, and in half an hour, | :02:50. | :02:52. | |
Scotland kick off against France at Murrayfield, hoping they can build | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
on their previous Six Nations victory in Rome. Duncan Weir's last | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
gasp drop goal sealed a win for the Scots and restored morale in the | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
squad, after its disappointing opening matches. It's the final game | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
in charge for interim coach Scott Johnson. I am privileged to be | :03:08. | :03:16. | |
invited to do what I am doing. I feel privileged to sit in that | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
stadium. If you're not excited, you should be dead! It is not what I am | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
about, I am really cited. And there's live coverage of the | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
match on BBC Scotland TV, radio and online. -- I am really excited. Kick | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
off is at 5pm. In football, it's quarter-finals weekend in the | :03:34. | :03:35. | |

Premiership St Johnstone. Steven Anderson scored the third goal. | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
There are two more quarter-final matches tomorrow. | :03:48. | :03:51. | |

the map. It has been a decent afternoon, | :03:54. | :04:02. | |
mainly dry with Sergeant, and it has been mild but very windy. We have | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
seen dust of up to 60 mph in places. You can see those tightly packed | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
isobars. This evening, the winds will ease, then this rant comes into | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
play in the West later. For the first part of tonight, mainly dry. | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
Just a little patchy drizzle. More persistent rain pushing into the | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
Western Isles and down western parts of the mainland. The winds will be | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
strong for much of the night but will ease towards morning. And it | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
lost a mild, temperatures holding at | :04:35. | :04:37. |
