That's all for now. The next news on BBC | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
Papers revealing details of key talks over Scotland's future funding | :00:08. | :00:10. | |
arrangements will be published before Holyrood breaks | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
The Scottish and Westminster governments are trying to hammer out | :00:14. | :00:17. | |
a deal on Scotland's finances that will suit both sides. | :00:18. | :00:22. | |
At the moment, Scotland gets a lump sum in cash every year from the | :00:23. | :00:34. | |
Treasury. It is called the lock rant, but it is going to change. The | :00:35. | :00:39. | |
Scotland Bill which is making its way through the Westminster | :00:40. | :00:42. | |
Parliament will give major new tax and welfare powers to Holyrood. | :00:43. | :00:46. | |
Ministers here and in Westminster want the best deal for Scotland, and | :00:47. | :00:50. | |
one which is fair to the rest of the UK. But there is a lot of horse | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
trading over how best to achieve that. This UK Government minister | :00:55. | :00:59. | |
says both sides accept any agreement comes with risks. A deal has to | :01:00. | :01:04. | |
reflect the Scottish Government taking on risk for policy choices so | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
that if they make good policy choices and raise additional revenue | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
they keep that revenue, but if they make propulsive choices and the | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
revenue is less that anticipated, then they have to bear the | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
consequences of that. The Treasury think a deal is close. The Scottish | :01:20. | :01:25. | |
Government do not. The SNP say on some point it is trying to pull the | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
wool over their eyes. They are trying to embed apricots in the | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
block grant that Scottish tax raising powers could possibly | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
deliver. That is detrimental to Scotland and clearly breaches the | :01:40. | :01:45. | |
Smith Commission proposals. While the fiscal framework may sound very | :01:46. | :01:48. | |
technical, it is incredibly important our lives. These have | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
fundamental consequences for the amount of money that a future | :01:53. | :01:58. | |
Scottish Government will have at its disposal, the amount of taxes that | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
the population will be expected to contribute, about the level of | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
services that they can expect to be provided. Chief Secretary to the | :02:08. | :02:13. | |
Treasury will visit everyday First Minister John Swinney for crunch | :02:14. | :02:14. | |
talks in Edinburgh tomorrow. Energy experts say they expect 150 | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
oil platforms in the UK North Sea The estimate, from energy | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
consultants Douglas-Westwood, takes account of the fall | :02:21. | :02:26. | |
in the price of oil, which is leaving many oil | :02:27. | :02:29. | |
fields economically unviable. A separate assessment, | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
by Company Watch, suggests that half of oil and gas companies | :02:33. | :02:35. | |
with North Sea operations are now loss-making, | :02:36. | :02:38. | |
with total losses for the past year Nine mosques in Scotland were among | :02:39. | :02:40. | |
more than 80 around the UK which opened their doors | :02:41. | :02:52. | |
to non-Muslims today, to try to counter negative | :02:53. | :02:54. | |
perceptions of Islam. Visitors were offered introductions | :02:55. | :02:56. | |
to the religion and the opportunity to observe prayers or simply | :02:57. | :02:59. | |
have a cup of tea. We hope that people who think of the | :03:00. | :03:11. | |
mosque as something mystical or strange or violence or whatever to | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
come and see it for real. And we also hope that have a human contact | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
with people face-to-face so that they realise what we do. | :03:20. | :03:21. | |
There were two matches in the Scottish Cup | :03:22. | :03:22. | |
Our senior football reporter Chris McLaughlin watched the David | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
and Goliath tie, between East Kilbride and Celtic. | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
It was a dream tie for East Kilbride, a semiprofessional club | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
from the lowland league against the Scottish champions in the Scottish | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
cup. There was to be no fairy tale end. It finished 2-0 to Celtic, | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
Leigh Griffiths getting the first goal after 20 minutes, eventually | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
getting it over the line via his hand. At such a fortune about the | :03:50. | :03:56. | |
goal. The second came after the break, another goalmouth scramble. | :03:57. | :03:57. | |
After that East Kilbride kept Celtic at bay despite extreme pressure. | :03:58. | :04:04. | |
Celtic progress in the Scottish cup but all the plaudits go to East club | :04:05. | :04:05. | |
raid from the lowland league. Today's other cup tie | :04:06. | :04:07. | |
was an Edinburgh derby. Hearts scored first | :04:08. | :04:09. | |
through Arnaud Djoum, Paul Hanlon's equaliser | :04:10. | :04:10. | |
was in injury-time. 2-2 the final score, | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
with a replay at Easter Road. A Scots-born American footballer | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
will feature in today's Superbowl Kicker Graham Gano was born | :04:21. | :04:22. | |
in Arbroath and moved to America, His side the Carolina Panthers | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
face Denver Broncos. There was oriental music and costume | :04:29. | :04:36. | |
in the centre of Glasgow, as celebrations started | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
for Chinese New Year. The Year of the Monkey | :04:40. | :04:42. | |
officially begins tomorrow. Unfortunately the weather | :04:43. | :04:44. | |
was all-too Scottish, Let's get the weather | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
prospects for this evening - and the start of the week - | :04:50. | :04:51. | |
and Judith is at the map. Thanks, Graham. We have our ninth | :04:52. | :04:59. | |
named storm coming our way, she is cold Imogen. However the good news | :05:00. | :05:04. | |
is that for us the impact will be felt more south of the border. You | :05:05. | :05:07. | |
can see the eyes of hours driving winds across the South and because | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
we are closer to the centre we will have lighter winds and tomorrow is | :05:13. | :05:14. | |
not looking too bad. Still some rain to content with for the rest of the | :05:15. | :05:19. | |
evening. It becomes lighter as we had through the night and a lot of | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
the north of the country will be dry. There is ice risk for | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
Aberdeenshire tonight. Temperatures 2-3 Celsius. A brisk wind in the | :05:29. | :05:35. | |
south-west corner. Tomorrow morning we have rain initially across the | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
South and Central London is, but gradually pulls away to the North | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
Sea and we see things brightening up nicely. Spells of sunshine coming | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
through and pretty light weapons. A bit of a breeze, but nothing to | :05:46. | :05:53. | |
write home about. Temperatures still on the cold side. | :05:54. | :05:55. | |
Our next update's just after the ten o'clock news. | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
Until then, from everyone on the team here in Glasgow the rest | :06:01. | :06:02. |
