Police have identified what were described as knowledge

:00:07.:00:13.

in Scotland's counter-terrorism strategy,

:00:14.:00:15.

The Scottish Police Authority says it was uploaded

:00:16.:00:18.

It reveals that police found knowledge gaps in some councils,

:00:19.:00:22.

which it expects will be replicated elsewhere.

:00:23.:00:25.

Counter-terrorism training tools are now being developed for people

:00:26.:00:28.

such as health workers, police and teachers.

:00:29.:00:34.

The First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has warned there is some distance

:00:35.:00:37.

left to travel before the financial deal underpinning

:00:38.:00:39.

Ms Sturgeon told the Andrew Marr Show

:00:40.:00:43.

that the Scottish government is busting a gut to agree a deal

:00:44.:00:47.

Sources in the UK government have said they believe

:00:48.:00:55.

A 43-year-old man has been arrested after armed police

:00:56.:01:00.

were called to an incident in Peterhead.

:01:01.:01:02.

The police described it as a disturbance,

:01:03.:01:04.

and were involved in negotiations to bring about a peaceful conclusion.

:01:05.:01:09.

No-one was injured, and police said there had been no threat

:01:10.:01:11.

More talks are to take place to try to settle a row over how

:01:12.:01:19.

the Scottish Government funds councils.

:01:20.:01:21.

The Government had to move back the deadline for accepting

:01:22.:01:25.

Many councils say they'll be receiving less cash than they'd

:01:26.:01:29.

originally expected and want more details.

:01:30.:01:31.

Here's our local government correspondent Jamie McIvor.

:01:32.:01:42.

Around 100 days to the Holyrood election and council funding looks

:01:43.:01:47.

set to become a big issue. One question is whether the council tax

:01:48.:01:52.

needs to be replaced. Another is more immediate. Many councils still

:01:53.:01:57.

have concerns over this year's government funding offer which is

:01:58.:02:04.

tougher than most anticipated. About 75% of the budgets that local

:02:05.:02:09.

authorities have spent on education, health and social peer, we have been

:02:10.:02:13.

told that they are priorities, they have got to be protected. Any cuts

:02:14.:02:20.

that come have to come and the other 25%, libraries, leisure centre,

:02:21.:02:32.

roads. Overall, councils are facing cuts this year. The reason the

:02:33.:02:37.

council tax freeze do not hurt people is that good people do not

:02:38.:02:44.

pay council tax. It does help that of people because housing has not

:02:45.:02:48.

been be valued for the last 25 years. People living in the most

:02:49.:02:51.

expensive properties, their taxes have not changed. The First Minister

:02:52.:02:57.

vigorously defended this year's funding offer. In terms of overall

:02:58.:03:02.

revenue expenditure of local authorities, they're looking at a 2%

:03:03.:03:06.

reduction before we take account of additional resources for social

:03:07.:03:11.

care, additional resources through the attainment fund. So far, one

:03:12.:03:16.

councillors has to put up the council tax and another lost or the

:03:17.:03:19.

government it cannot accept of current funding offer. More may

:03:20.:03:21.

follow. Football, and the Premiership

:03:22.:03:22.

match between Hamilton It was a fiercely-fought

:03:23.:03:23.

contest though, Hamilton's Jesus Garcia Tena was sent

:03:24.:03:27.

off for this tackle, while Igor Rossi saw red

:03:28.:03:29.

for Hearts in the first half. Tennis, and Andy Murray is on court

:03:30.:03:34.

tomorrow morning UK time, playing for a place in

:03:35.:03:36.

the Australian Open quarter finals. He's been practising today, no doubt

after collapsing the previous day. Kheredine Idessane

reports from Melbourne. If the events of yesterday here were

:03:49.:04:04.

concerning, with Andy Murray's father-in-law collapsing and being

:04:05.:04:07.

stretchered away, much better news today. He has been given the all

:04:08.:04:13.

clear to leave and will be heading back onto the UK in the next couple

:04:14.:04:18.

of days. He has extended his thanks to everyone here at the Australian

:04:19.:04:23.

open and at the hospital for the treatment he has received. So a

:04:24.:04:28.

great deal of relief, you would imagine, for Andy Murray. This was

:04:29.:04:33.

the scene today, a practice session for Andy Murray. He has an important

:04:34.:04:37.

match to prepare for tomorrow morning, it is our breakfast time
