The controversial Dungavel detention centre in south Lanarkshire

is to close and be replaced by a short term holding facility

Dungavel has been criticised over the years by campaigners who raised

concerns about the treatment of detainees and the length

The Home office says it's being closed because

it's under-used, due to its remote location.

Our reporter Laura Maxwell is at

David, this is the only detention centre of its kind in Scotland. It's

where people who've already had their claim for asylum rejected are

held, essentially say they can't disappear before the Home Office

deports them. It's for that reason that for so many people over the

years, has become a byword for all that is wrong with that process.

Dungavel. The former prison became a detention centre in 2001. It was

this view from the inside which first brought it to the public's

attention. Being there wasn't child's play. This family were

detained for more than a year, unable to attend school. They were

the first of many children to be sent to Dungavel with their parents.

This woman was just 14 when she was taken there with her family in 2007.

Not being able to do anything, that was the most difficult thing.

Because I was the oldest and I knew English, I had to do a lot of

translation with the lawyers and the officers. I felt really hopeless

when I was translating because I knew that unless the government did

something, unless there was a campaign, we were just going to be

stuck there. Over the years Dungavel has been the scene of many protests.

At first against the detention of children, which only ended in 2010.

There was more controversy recently when the BBC revealed some detailing

news were being held for more than a year. Torture victims have also been

kept at the facility in contravention of the Home Office's

guidelines. This long-term campaigner visits the centre to take

in supplies to those being held there. Campaigners will be welcoming

the closure of Dungavel but they will still be worried about the

detention aspect which might still play a part in the asylum system.

The detention centre did have a purpose, to stop failed asylum

seekers from disappearing before they could be removed. Its closure

won't stop that detention, instead it will be moved closer to Glasgow

airport. The new short-term holding facility

will have 51 beds. It will be built on this site, just minutes from

Glasgow airport. If all goes to plan, Dungavel will be closed before

the end of next year, and it will be replaced by that holding facility at

the end of next year, and it will be Glasgow airport. The Home Office has

yet to gain planning permission for that. The Scottish Government has

welcomed the decision to close Dungavel although it says it will

seek clarification about the way asylum seekers in Scotland will be

treated. There is some concern any fast track process could affect

their appeals process and impact on fast track process could affect

their mental health. Similar questions are also being asked by

church leaders and human rights campaigners who say this process

could mean that asylum seekers end up locked up, hundreds of miles away

from their family, friends and support networks they have built up

in Scotland. The Education Secretary says

an amended Named Person for Every Child scheme should be

in place by August next year, The controversial scheme that sees

a single point of contact for all children under the age

of 18, was put on hold after the Supreme Court ruled

that its plans for sharing For the avoidance of any doubt the

government remains absolutely committed to the named person

service. As he updated MSPs, the Education Secretary was clear. The

Named Person scheme is going ahead but first the government would

listen. For that reason the Scottish Government will undertake a

three-month period of intense engagement in Scotland. We will take

input from practitioners as well as parents, charities and young people,

those who support the policy and those who have concerns about it.

Every child under the age of 18 was supposed to have a named person by

now, a health visitor or teacher, assigned to look after their

well-being. But the scheme is put on hold after the Supreme Court ruled

part of the controversial legislation that dealt with

information sharing breached human rights law. Three judges ruled that

the Named Person scheme was unquestionably legitimate and

benign... But they said that it was perfectly

possible that information could be shared with authorities without the

child being aware. The court stated that even after the information

sharing provisions are sorted out the Named Person scheme is still in

danger of constituting a disproportionate and therefore

unlawful interference with family life. Labour supported the principle

but again called for 16 and 17-year-olds to be removed. It seems

absurd given that a 16-year-old can vote, marry, pay tax, all as an

adult. To remove them would give a strong signal that while the

government is not surrendering an named person policy, it is

listening, and not only to the Supreme Court. That was a concession

Mr Swinney said the government was willing to consider. The campaign

group that brought about the legal challenge described today's

announcement has laughable saying the government should be apologising

to parents. But they say they welcome the chance of dialogue with

the Deputy First Minister. Lisa Summers, Edinburgh.

Let's get more on this from Brian Taylor at Holyrood. This is about

complying with the law but it's about much more than that, isn't it?

Much more indeed. It's about the law but it's about bringing people with

the Scottish Government. In terms of the law I would expect the UK

provisions of data protection may be adopted and written onto the face of

the Scottish act. To make it still clearer that those who practising

Named Person scheme are obliged to adhere to data protection. It's not

just about that legalistic or change. John Swinney quietly but

also quite frankly conceded that the Scottish Government hadn't got it

right in bringing people with them on this proposal. The proposal

perhaps seems to make sense to those who are experts in the field but

causes worries and anxieties for parents perhaps coming up against

this concept for the first time. I think that is what Mr Swinney will

spend the full year's delay in seeking to put right. He's quite

determined to go ahead with the scheme. It's about the law, yes but

it's also about tone. A former Belgian Prime Minister

who believes Scotland should be able to stay in the EU is to lead Brexit

talks for the European Parliament. Guy Verhofstadt said the day

after the EU referendum it would be "wrong" for Scotland to be taken out

of the bloc after most He met with the First Minister,

Nicola Sturgeon in Brussels The European Parliament will have

to approve any eventual deal More than 900 children,

some as young as ten, contacted ChildLine in Scotland last

year, saying they were suicidal. That's almost double

the number five years ago. Labour has attacked the government,

saying waiting times for child mental health

treatments are lengthening. Our Home Affairs Correspondent,

Reevel Alderson reports. Hi, you're through to someone you

can talk to at Childline. ChildLine's call centres are

handling almost double the number of calls from young people with

handling almost double the number of suicidal thoughts than five years

ago. Including children as young as ten. The charity says it is positive

that children have confidence in talking although they often start

off with a more trivial matter. They may talk to us about exam pressures

and stress or bullying. When they feel relaxed they may then go on to

say that they feel there is no hope, no way out and suicide is the only

say that they feel there is no hope, answer. Talking is a fabulous first

step to getting children and young people the right help. This

eight-year-old was a mysterious boy who looked after his sister Ashley.

One day aged just 12 he took his own life, leaving his family devastated.

Now, Ashley is training as a ChildLine counsellor, wanting to

raise awareness of the service to prevent other families from

suffering. I've seen the devastation it leaves behind, to the whole

family. And not just family, friends and everyone. If we can stop that

happening to even one child through ChildLine, then it's been worth it.

The figures were raised in Holyrood with Labour claiming increasing

numbers of young Scots are now waiting for mental health treatment.

The First Minister admitted demand had increased. Actually I take the

view that that is a positive development. It doesn't sound like

it but it means the stigma associated with mental health is

decreasing, and more people, in particular more young people, are

feeling able to come forward. In the summer Labour revealed that 460

young Scots had waited over a year for the treatment they desperately

need. This week 's figures see that rise to 608. That is utterly

shameful and nothing short of a national scandal. ChildLine is now

calling for better access to services for young people who feel

they have nowhere else to turn. A report on the care of a woman

with post-natal depression who killed her baby has concluded

that chances to refer her Erin Sutherland admitted

the culpable homicide of her daughter Chloe,

who was nine months old, on the grounds of

diminished responsibility. The Mental Welfare Commission made

a series of recommendations to improve post-natal

mental health care. Community specialist Perry mental

health team had a cut-off limit for new referrals when the baby reached

six months of age. In this particular case, we think she

shouldn't have been treated as a new referral at that point. She'd had

previous contact and a known history. There should have been

enough flexibility in the referral criteria for her to be seen when the

baby was beyond six months. You're watching BBC

Reporting Scotland. The controversial Dungavel

Immigration Removal Centre, And still to come: It's curtain up

again at the Gaiety Theatre in Ayr, Astronomers at St Andrews university

have observed tantalising glimpses of how our own planet may

have been born. They did it by watching

the longest, deepest eclipse It suggests planets aren't born

slowly, but emerge relatively Here's our science correspondent

Kenneth MacDonald. To get the best possible view of the

heavens, we've taken telescopes higher and higher, to the tops of

mountains high above atmospheric and light pollution, or better still

into space. But there are still things to be discovered closer to

home. At first glance this might not seem like the best site for a

telescope. Surrounded by streetlights. But they have observed

something remarkable here. This is the James Gregory telescope, the

largest operational optical telescope in Scotland at St Andrews

University Observatory. And this is the star they've been gazing at.

It's like our own sun but a lot younger. Our son is 4.5 billion

years old and this store is only one or 2 million years old. It's really

a baby star. The star is known for its variable brightness. Recently it

vanished for two years. If you just compared the brightness with these

two, that's roughly the same brightness. Over the past two years,

and this is an image taken by the telescope, now it has become much

fainter. The probable reason? A disc of stardust blocking our view which

means we are having to change our view of how planets are born. For

many years we have thought planets form very slowly and steadily. That

particles just stick together and grow and grow. But now looking at

this we find that these are actually very dynamic processes, very violent

things happening in the systems which we were not expecting to see.

They are in motion, they are changing on timescales comparable to

human life spans. We can watch them evolving in time. We may be getting

a glimpse in real of how our own planet came into being. Who knows

what our solar system looks like when it was young. We can't actually

go back in time. The best thing we can do is look at other stars at

that age and try and figure out what is going on there. The James Gregory

telescope is more than 50 years old but it's proving it can still expand

our knowledge of the universe. A look now at other stories

from across the country. More than half 1 million acres of

land in Scotland are now owned by communities. Ministers say that

ventures like the community buyout of the park estate on the island of

Lewis have helped to reverse population decline and boost the

economy but the Conservatives say that recently introduced land reform

laws mean that there is too much government interference in land

ownership. The multi-million pound first phase of an overhaul of

schools provision in dumb freeze has officially begun. A ground-breaking

ceremony at Saint James 's -- Saint Josephs College started the scheme.

The school will be overhauled and a new campus will be built in the

north-west of the town. And a listed railway turntable close to Aberdeen

rail station has been removed for refurbishment. More than 100 years

old, the steel structure at the old Ferryhill Depot is one of only three

left in Scotland. A fully operating turntable would allow more steam

trains to visit Aberdeen. We are providing servicing facilities to

steam locomotives which come on steam charters. The Borders railway

has been extremely successful over the last year in operating steam

charters and we want to cash in on that and get some of the tourists

coming to Aberdeen by train and steam train. One of Glasgow's oldest

buildings is to undergo a revamp as part of plans to generate the

Easterhouse area. Glasgow City Council is to spend half ?1 million

refurbishing problem for -- problem whole house, dating back to the 15th

century -- Provan Hall. It will be one of seven developments.

Now, you can't win them all - that was Andy Murray's reaction

to defeat in the quarter final of the US Open.

The Wimbledon and Olympic champion's hopes of adding another Grand Slam

to his collection were ended by Japan's Kei Nishikori.

But as Kheredine Idessane reports from New York, the Scot is content

Andy Murray's dreams of a second US open title in New York are over and

the sun has finally set on a golden summer for the world number two. The

end when it came was dramatic, Kei Nishikori coming from 2-1 down to

win 7-5 in the fifth. The Scotsman was clear about one thing, for him

there is deep disappointment but not a let down. I haven't let anyone

down, certainly not myself, I've pushed as hard as I could over the

last be months and I'm very proud of what I've done. If someone had

offered me the summer that I've had before Wimbledon, I probably would

have signed up for that. A defeat for Andy Murray was the last thing

anyone predicted early on, a scintillating first set was secured

6-1 in just over half an hour but from a breakdown in the second set,

the Japanese world number seven levelled the match and it seemed

order had been restored when Murray reasserted his authority by taking

the third that. Then, the moment that momentum moved away. A noise

from the stadium PA system let the umpire to stop play halfway to the

point to Andy Murray's annoyance. He never recovered his composure,

losing the point, the game and his next service game. He could complain

all you like to the supervisor but that wouldn't stop Nishikori

levelling at 2-2. A roller-coaster fifth set comprised of five breaks

of serve and when Murray lost his, Nishikori punished him. Having

played so well in patches against Nishikori and especially against

Dimitrov in the previous round it is a shock that Andy Murray is out of

the US Open. He now needs to re-energise. A week tomorrow he'll

be on home soil in Scotland beginning a Davis Cup semifinal

against Argentina at Glasgow's Emirates arena.

One of the country's most famous footballers believes the national

team will come good again, because we're due a cycle

The former Scotland captain Graeme Souness was speaking

to the Scotland's Game series, which in episode three tonight

reflects on the national team's failure to reach a major

We are trying to get back! A touch from Jim Leighton and it is number

two. The 23rd of June, 1998, the last time Scotland played a major

tournament match. Defeat to Morocco but at least we were there which

cannot be said about nine international showpieces sense.

After every disappointment, we must sing the chorus about video games,

After every disappointment, we must not enough resources, the cold

weather, I think it is simply not enough kids playing not enough

football. Many would argue that other factors have played their

part. Some questionable appointments. Please call me. Some

part. Some questionable questionable decisions, with

devastating consequences. And too many questionable players. There are

a limited group, honest, solid, limited group. I have to believe it

is a cycle that we are in and one day, we will produce another Kenny

Dalglish, three or four players who can get us qualified and make an

impression on the World Cup. Throughout the last 18 years, making

brief impressions in qualifying has been Scotland's limit and according

to one man tasked with reviewing the state of the game, the time for

excuses is over. If you look at Holland, France, Spain and other

countries, the kids are not playing on the streets either and if we want

to qualify we have to be quite inspirational in investing heavily,

where the government can help, and have much bigger ambition. I am the

eternal optimist, we can do it, but it requires a superhuman effort on

everyone's behalf. We have seen lenses of the superhuman before and

now it is about making it the norm. McFadden is going for gold! It

wasn't as spectacular as this against Malta last Sunday but at

least it is one win from one. And you can see a longer look back

on the last 30 years of Scottish international football in episode

three of Scotland's Game - Now, seven years ago

Ayr's Gaiety Theatre The historic theatre closed

after health and safety concerns, but thanks to the support

of the local community, the Gaiety is back in business

and due to reopen this weekend after the second stage

of a ?2.5 million makeover. Our arts correspondent

Pauline McLean reports. From Sir Harry Lauder to the stars

of many Simon Stevens, -- of many summits these -- summer seasons, the

Gaiety Theatre has seen them all but it has had two fires and health and

safety problems that caused it to close altogether. We've done a lot

of work to the auditorium. This theatre is a survivor and after the

?2.4 million makeover it is looking her best. I think people always

supported the Gaiety Theatre and even being closed for six months,

people were asking when it would be open, whether they can volunteer and

be part of the parade. There is a community community theatre. As the

Gaiety Theatre prepares to reopen this weekend, those who championed

it are keen to send their best wishes. Apparently I have played it

more than anybody else. I should get a medal! The people who had to watch

me and listen to me should get medals! The first to try out the new

stage, Ayr Players, one of many amateur companies in the area.

Robbie Coltrane has played here. But also going back to old Scottish

music hall greats, the Alexander Brothers and people like that. So it

is a fantastic privilege to feel that you are part of that community

and history. And this weekend, day and the hundreds of people who have

supported the theatre through good times and bad can take a bow as the

Gaiety reopens a second century of Scottish entertainment.

Time now for the latest weather forecast with Christopher.

Good evening, a mixture of conditions today, some torrential

rain but equally some sunshine as well. Tonight, fairly cloudy and

some rain, the heavy rain across the Northern Isles but clearing away and

then over the mainland, showers merging. Still windy, not as strong

as earlier. Temperatures holding in double digits but not as close as

as earlier. Temperatures holding in recent nights. Tomorrow we have a

fairly windy day, and also fairly unsettled with low pressure in the

Atlantic and it is coming in increasingly faster over the last

few runs of the weather model. After a dry start, things the downhill

with the cloud building and a few showers before the main band of rain

arrives with strengthening wind. This is mid-afternoon, you can see

how heavy the rain is likely to be and strong wind from the south, gale

force around the South. Temperatures 17, 18 but feeling cooler than that

under the rain. Still drive for the far north and northern isles but

rain is coming your way. Into the evening, rain pushing north and east

and actually going through at a fair pace, which is good news for the

weekend because overnight into Saturday, the rain band has cleared,

something more settled coming in to start the weekend and Saturday looks

fine, dry and bright for most. Showers over the North West, still

breezy but elsewhere, not too bad, temperatures of 16 or 17. Sunday,

some dry and bright conditions, some showers in the West and north-west

but the fly in the ointment is the next system coming our way from the

Atlantic. Likely to come in on Sunday night into Monday but

uncertainty on the timing. It may come in during the day on Sunday, so

stay tuned. The controversial Dungavel detention
