Will Good evening. The head of the CBI in Scotland is to step down at

try to reverse its position as an official campaign opposed to

Scottish independence. Laura Maxwell reports.

Scottish independence. Laura Maxwell Iain McMillan has led the CBI for

almost two decades. In a statement the CBI said he is planning to

retire before the end of 2014. The announcement comes at a difficult

time for the group. Last week it registered as an official campaign

against independence. The move saw several key Scottish institutions

resign or suspend their memberships. On Friday there was a U-turn. The

CBI announced it no longer wanted to be considered an official

campaigning group. Pro-independence businesses say the news comes as no

surprise. I think he is being made a scapegoat here and clearly we will

have to look at where blame properly lies. As I understand it the

decision has been made to campaign against Scottish independence at the

approval of the Council of CBI Scotland. Clearly the decision has

been in Dorset by the board. -- endorsed. The CBI has denied any

link between the independence issue and today's announcement.

Scots have joined the huge crowds to celebrate Pope John Paul II being

made a saint. Scotland has a special connection to the Polish pontiff. In

1982 he became the first ever to visit here. Andreas Wolff has sent

this report from Rome. You could have thought there was a

rock concert as masses of people were heading for St Peter's Square

this morning. Some left as early as 2am, others decided to sleep in the

streets nearby, to be in time for two former hopes being declared a

saint. Pope John XXIII and Pope John Paul II are being canonised at the

same time will stop this is also the first time that two Popes, are

present at the canonisation. There have been questions about the

canonisation because of Pope John Paul's handling of the abuse scandal

but that was not on the minds of people here. It was a brilliant

atmosphere, singing through the tunnel, lots of different things

happening. Just being there was amazing. It was pretty incredible,

just being here, building up the image of what it was going to be

like and just seeing it happen. Pope John Paul second was the second

longest Pope in history. At this church in Partick they have

also been following events closely. You just feel proud that he was your

native Pope. John Paul for me was the number one Polish man. He is

holy, it is true. It is a great day and we are happy to be here with all

of our friends in church and all of our parents will stop -- our parents

and friends. Police are investigating a complaint

from a Rangers shareholder against the football club's chief executive,

Graham Wallace -- seen here the football club's chief executive,

right. The complaint follows unrest among some shareholders and fans --

over statements made by Mr Wallace regarding the club's finances. In

the Premiership today -- Hibs lost two - one to Hearts in the capital

derby match at Easter Road. Good evening. A day of contrast with

lovely warm sunshine across western Scotland. Tonight it is almost a

North -South split. Cloudy with patchy rain edging into the south

and some mist patches forming. Tomorrow morning that is how it

really starts off, cloudy, bits and pieces of rain and drizzle. Sunshine

in the North. The rain in the South will gradually die away, some

brightness towards the western borders, some mist patches lingering

to the east. Warm sunshine for the north-west, potentially up to 20,
