Good evening. Violence, pornography and children - the mobile phone | :00:08. | :00:18. | |

operators who aren't protecting our youngsters. What price do you put | :00:19. | :00:23. | |
on a child's innocence? Also, find out why this controversial | :00:23. | :00:29. | |
development is now one of the best in Britain. And we're with the | :00:29. | :00:39. | |
:00:39. | :00:46. | ||
swimmers making the most of the Mobile phone operators in the | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
Channel Islands are failing to protect children from pornographic | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
and violent websites, because they say it's too complicated and too | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
expensive. With a growing number of internet-capable phones, one e- | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
safety officer is calling for operators to adopt the same | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
policies as the UK, where all of the mobile phone operators offer | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
free internet filters that stop children accessing inappropriate | :01:02. | :01:12. | |
:01:12. | :01:13. | ||
websites. Amy Harris reports. Colin Cauvain in Sure Cable & | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
Wireless today browsing for a Smartphone for his eight and nine | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
year old grandchilden. Like their friends and thousands of children, | :01:20. | :01:30. | |
:01:30. | :01:32. | ||
they want the latest technology. is what youngsters are into. All of | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
their friends have got them. Colin was buying this type of phone | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
in the UK it would come with the option of free internet filters | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
that block over 18 content. But here in the Channel Islands, they | :01:42. | :01:45. | |
don't. And this man at the Education Department wants that | :01:45. | :01:53. | |
changed. It is important we recognised that child safeguarding | :01:53. | :01:58. | |
is a crucial issue. The companies are dug in their social | :01:58. | :02:04. | |
responsibility. -- avoiding their social responsibility. So why | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
aren't there any filters? Sure told us it would cost hundreds of | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
thousands per island, and possibly per operator. They believe it needs | :02:10. | :02:20. | |
:02:20. | :02:21. | ||
a collective approach. Unless we act together at the same time, the | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
impact will be negligible. If somebody wants to access this | :02:25. | :02:32. | |
content, there is no cost. He is just a case of buying a Sim card. - | :02:32. | :02:39. | |
- it is just a case. It is not a cost issue. It is a question of it | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
we can offer the quality of filtering to ensure children cannot | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
access appropriate content. We have not found a system that can do that | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
yet. The third operator, Jersey Telecom, wouldn't comment on camera | :02:51. | :03:01. | |
:03:01. | :03:04. | ||
Meanwhile, outside the phone shops people were shocked no controls | :03:04. | :03:13. | |
exist. It is worrying. I think the children in the Channel Islands | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
should have the same rights as children in the UK at the same | :03:17. | :03:23. | |
level of protection. It should be looked into seriously. It is | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
worrying, especially if a child gets a phone for Christmas. It | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
should be blocked automatically. The worry for parents is that they | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
can do nothing to stop their children accessing pornography and | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
violence on their mobile phones. The only solution is not to buy | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
them a Smartphone. Difficult or perhaps impossible in this digital | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
age. The final members of Jersey's | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
government have been appointed. All the chairs of the scrutiny panels | :03:48. | :03:51. | |
were elected unopposed, and the Constable of St Helier was also | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
appointed Chairman of the Privileges and Procedures Committee, | :03:53. | :04:03. | |
:04:03. | :04:03. | ||
responsible for States members discipline. Police in Guernsey are | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
investigating what appears to be an arson attack on the island's Indoor | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
Cricket Centre. CCTV footage caught two people strolling to the rear of | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
the building before tampering with a wheelie bin, which then was on | :04:12. | :04:22. | |
:04:22. | :04:23. | ||
fire. If this place had gone up in smoke, | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
it would have affected her law business, and of course living | :04:28. | :04:36. | |
accommodation. -- our. A very scary thought. These youngsters really | :04:36. | :04:43. | |
need to consider. They should seek help because in my opinion they are | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
sake. It is not the sort of thing you do. Now, it's a building that | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
has split opinion. Some see it as one of Jersey's worst planning | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
decision, but the housing development above Portelet Bay has | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
just won a top building award. We sent Anisha Shah along to have a | :04:57. | :05:04. | |
look at what the judges thought was so special. | :05:04. | :05:10. | |
This is the show apartment. Portelet Bay has just won the Best | :05:10. | :05:20. | |
:05:20. | :05:24. | ||
Apartment Scheme Award in the British Isles. A lot of attention | :05:24. | :05:29. | |
to detail has been put into this scheme, to achieve the vision of | :05:29. | :05:34. | |
old Architecture in our natural heritage site. The apartments are | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
the subject of an independent quality control team. 500 | :05:39. | :05:42. | |
individual checks are made throughout the process of the | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
construction. Assessors from the What House Awards rated this best | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
for luxury, attention to detail, originality and a "very special | :05:48. | :05:58. | |
:05:58. | :05:59. | ||
setting". As you can see, this is a stunning location. Award-winning it | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
is, but uptake has been slow. Just eight of the 53 properties have | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
been sold. But Portelet Bay also faced opposition since all this was | :06:07. | :06:15. | |
just a plan on paper. The quality and the dynamics of it, plus the | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
stunning location, has been well received by those who have come to | :06:19. | :06:23. | |
see it. Those cynics claim the site's an eyesore and out of | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
keeping with the scenery. For them, this top award won't change their | :06:27. | :06:37. | |
:06:37. | :06:39. | ||
view. We do tend to moan when the weather | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
is a bit miserable, so we should make sure we appreciate it when | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
it's not. And that's exactly what regular swimmers in Guernsey are | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
doing. The warm weather has had a knock on affect on sea temperatures. | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
Penny Elderfield has this report. It's a popular spot during the | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
summer, but this is probably what you'd expect to see at the bathing | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
pools as we approach December. But this area is far from quiet, with | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
swimmers like Dex braving the sea here regularly. Although he admits | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
if the sea wasn't so warm at the moment - around one and a half | :07:04. | :07:13. | |
degrees above the 30-year average - he might have given up by now. | :07:14. | :07:19. | |
long as I have ever been is 11th November a few years ago. This is | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
definitely the long as I have been. I do not think I will make | :07:23. | :07:29. | |
Christmas! We will see. It is a lot warmer this year and the weather | :07:29. | :07:36. | |
has been better. Not so much wind. If it is windy down here, you can | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
go to Bordeaux. The water may be warmer than usual, but that's still | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
pretty cold. And you wouldn't get me going in there any time soon. So | :07:43. | :07:49. | |
why are temperatures higher, and is the trend likely to continue? | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
must remember we have had a lovely warm summer which has warned the | :07:54. | :08:01. | |
sea temperatures. Last winter they were very cold. We must not confuse | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
changes with climate change. But long-term climate change is | :08:05. | :08:09. | |
happening and it is increasing sea temperatures. So whilst the high | :08:09. | :08:11. | |
temperatures we've been experiencing recently may be a bit | :08:11. | :08:21. | |
:08:21. | :08:30. | ||
unusual, at least swimmers like Dex Good evening. The temperatures in | :08:30. | :08:35. | |
the next few days will come down. The sea temperature beginning to | :08:35. | :08:41. | |
cool. Still relatively mild and unusually warm. An area of high | :08:41. | :08:43. | |
pressure scripting and from the south-west keeping things quiet | :08:43. | :08:52. | |
overnight. Hopefully some sunshine or tomorrow. Towards the end the | :08:52. | :08:59. | |
week the risk of more clout on Thursday and into Friday. -- cloud. | :08:59. | :09:06. | |
Until then it is a drive. Missed the overnight tonight. Overnight | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
temperatures well into single figures. Tomorrow we should have | :09:10. | :09:18. | |
the most -- mist clearing. Temperatures go into 12 degrees in | :09:18. | :09:24. | |
the afternoon. The winds from the same direction, north-westerly, | :09:24. | :09:34. | |
:09:34. | :09:35. | ||
becoming variable in the second half of the day. Times of high | :09:35. | :09:45. | |
:09:45. | :09:51. | ||
water... Quite messy so if for most of our beaches. -- surfing. The | :09:51. | :09:58. | |
forecast towards the weekend, more cloud. Thursday is a fine day. On | :09:58. | :10:03. | |
Friday, the cloud will start to produce some outbreaks of rain. It | :10:03. | :10:09. |
