:07:12. > :07:17.Let's talk to James Reynolds, who's in Amatrice for us this evening.
:07:18. > :07:23.James, one gets the impression that as the hours pass by, this is
:07:24. > :07:26.becoming more of a search and recovery operation, with less
:07:27. > :07:31.emphasis on the rescue. That's right. Because the sound of constant
:07:32. > :07:37.digging here in Amatrice has stopped. No digging probably means
:07:38. > :07:40.no hope of finding survivors. But there's still an extensive relief
:07:41. > :07:44.operation in this area. My colleagues and I spent several hours
:07:45. > :07:49.driving around this region and almost every small road and ham let
:07:50. > :07:53.we saw soldiers and firefighters trying to security access ways and
:07:54. > :07:57.buildings. Survivors, here in Amatrice will spend the night in
:07:58. > :08:01.giant tenting pitched a few blocks away. They will, of course, get
:08:02. > :08:05.access to that ?40 million of emergency aid but that's just the
:08:06. > :08:09.beginning. In the long term, Italy really has a decision to make - is
:08:10. > :08:14.this country prepared to spend the billions and billions of pounds
:08:15. > :08:17.needed in order to renovate and restore all buildings in this
:08:18. > :08:20.earthquake-prone region, to make sure what happened here, a mass
:08:21. > :08:20.collapse of buildings, never happens again.
:08:21. > :08:24.Thank you James. The US Secretary of State,
:08:25. > :08:28.John Kerry, says he's had "long, productive and constructive talks"

:12:11. > :12:13.been here for the past seven hours. Although this particular street
:12:14. > :12:18.looks like a rather derelict industrial estate, we are very close
:12:19. > :12:21.to the city centre here and lots of people were in bars, restaurants
:12:22. > :12:25.nearby were told to stay inside earlier on. Most of the attention
:12:26. > :12:29.has been focussed on the little business unit next to where the
:12:30. > :12:33.police van is parked at the moment. We have seen officers in their
:12:34. > :12:38.forensic overalls coming and going all afternoon. Those five men were
:12:39. > :12:42.arrested on the suspicion, preparation or incity gafgs of acts
:12:43. > :12:46.of terrorism. The first time anyone has been arrested on such a serious
:12:47. > :12:50.offence for years. There was a much wider cordon earlier on in this part

:13:40. > :13:44.Our Health Editor, Hugh Pym, reports.
:13:45. > :13:47.It's a process which could result in a radical shake up of health

:14:19. > :14:23.to be an overarching plan that puts patients, the public at the centre.
:14:24. > :14:28.I think there needs to be a huge debate about the NHS.

:14:45. > :14:50.Local health and council leaders have been told by NHS England
:14:51. > :14:53.to come with up their own plans for working more closely together,
:14:54. > :14:59.The background to that is the need to find billions of pounds
:15:00. > :15:02.of efficiency savings over the next few years.
:15:03. > :15:05.The problem is, while the Government has given the NHS more money,
:15:06. > :15:10.it hasn't kept up with increasing demand for patient care.
:15:11. > :15:14.NHS leaders say it's not about cuts for the sake of it but how to meet
:15:15. > :15:17.the needs of a growing and ageing population.
:15:18. > :15:22.With that demand comes rising costs, and we are not trying to say -
:15:23. > :15:26.well, the simple answer is to just slash and burn and close services
:15:27. > :15:29.but, in fact, we need to think about how we deliver services
:15:30. > :15:34.and what tends to drive up those costs?

:15:39. > :15:42.Health chiefs say it is a big moment for the NHS, as it tries to tackle

:15:47. > :15:49.But selling that message won't be easy, as local campaign groups
:15:50. > :15:54.Standby for what could be a bruising and heated debate.
:15:55. > :16:03.There's been an unprecedented rise in the murder rate
:16:04. > :16:05.in the Philippines, after the country's new president
:16:06. > :16:08.won power, promising tough action in the war on drugs.
:16:09. > :16:10.But Rodrigo Duterte's critics say his hardline tactics

:17:12. > :17:13.of the biggest prisons around Manila.
:17:14. > :17:16.There are clearly concerns about real drug problems here.
:17:17. > :17:19.But the focus at the moment, as with so much of this campaign,
