:00:24. > :00:33.Good afternoon. The government has hit back at
:00:34. > :00:36.claims that his -- that changes to disability claims in England and
:00:37. > :00:53.Wales are in chaos. The changes are due to start on Monday, for those on
:00:54. > :00:57.Disability Living Allowance, --. Welfare is a challenge for any
:00:58. > :01:01.government. It is welcomed by some, challenged by others and difficult
:01:02. > :01:05.to implement. Disability Living Allowance is claimed by 3.3 million
:01:06. > :01:09.people and costs the government ?13 million a year -- ?13 billion a
:01:10. > :01:17.year. There has been a 30% rise in claimants. From April, claimants
:01:18. > :01:21.were assessed for the Personal Independence Payment. From Monday,
:01:22. > :01:24.those on Disability Living Allowance in certain areas will face
:01:25. > :01:31.reassessment as planned to receive PIP. Others elsewhere will remain on
:01:32. > :01:36.Disability Living Allowance for the time being because the assessment is
:01:37. > :01:39.taking longer than expected. People in Northern Ireland are unaffected.
:01:40. > :01:46.Labour says it is a sign welfare reform is in trouble. People thought
:01:47. > :01:48.they would be moving to this new Personal Independence Payment who
:01:49. > :01:54.are facing huge anxiety and uncertainty about what the future
:01:55. > :01:57.holds. This is in chaos. The Prime Minister and Iain Duncan Smith need
:01:58. > :02:01.to get a grip. The government says it remains committed to the plan and
:02:02. > :02:18.changes will be intimated on time. The spokesman says... Inevitably, as
:02:19. > :02:22.you introduce any change, if you come up against problems or concerns
:02:23. > :02:26.that have to be addressed, surely it is best to pause and make sure do
:02:27. > :02:31.get it right rather than rushing ahead and creating chaos. This is
:02:32. > :02:36.the right thing to do to make certain we get these reforms right.
:02:37. > :02:42.One disability charity says although DLA needs reform, the new system is
:02:43. > :02:46.flawed and an excuse to save money. Ministers have embarked on what they
:02:47. > :02:50.say is the biggest shake-up in the benefits system ever attempted.
:02:51. > :02:54.There have been hiccups, especially when it comes to assessment. That is
:02:55. > :02:58.why they are hoping by beating in this system, they will pick up
:02:59. > :03:09.problems before too many people are affected. -- by bringing in their
:03:10. > :03:12.system. A former flatmate and chauffeur to
:03:13. > :03:14.Jimmy Savar has appeared in court charged with a string of sex
:03:15. > :03:18.offences against teenage girls. -- Jimmy Savile. Heriberto Viramontes
:03:19. > :03:23.-- Ray Teret is accused of several offences.
:03:24. > :03:29.Ray Teret has left Manchester magistrates Court. He made no
:03:30. > :03:32.comment as he walked past the journalists. He spoke only to
:03:33. > :03:37.confirm his name, age and address and over a period of half an hour,
:03:38. > :03:41.32 charges were read out to the 72-year-old. They include charges of
:03:42. > :03:47.rape, attempted rape and indecent assault. Ray Teret made no plea.
:03:48. > :03:51.That will come later during the court proceedings. He is a
:03:52. > :03:57.little-known DJ. He is better known for being a friend of Jimmy Savile.
:03:58. > :04:03.He was a good friend of the former DJ in the 1960s and lived with him
:04:04. > :04:06.for three years, and was his chauffeur. Ray Teret will next
:04:07. > :04:12.appear at Manchester Crown Court on 15th November. He was granted
:04:13. > :04:15.conditional bail. He had to surrender his passport and is not
:04:16. > :04:21.allowed any unsupervised contact with anyone under the age of 16.
:04:22. > :04:26.The Church of England has set out proposals to end the deadlock over
:04:27. > :04:29.women bishops. It is suggesting an independent ombudsman could be
:04:30. > :04:33.introduced to rule on arrangements for traditionalist parishes. The
:04:34. > :04:40.church's grilling Synod will debate the plans next month.
:04:41. > :04:44.A promise to cut levels of saturated fat in our foods has been described
:04:45. > :04:48.as a drop in the ocean in the fight against obesity. Ministers have
:04:49. > :04:52.asked food manufacturers and retailers to sign involuntary pledge
:04:53. > :04:59.in an effort to stem the rises. Critics say the move ignores salt
:05:00. > :05:06.and sugar contents in products. Foods like crisps and chocolate may
:05:07. > :05:13.taste delicious, but they contain hidden fats and are contributing to
:05:14. > :05:17.the nation's obesity crisis. Heart disease claims are far too many
:05:18. > :05:23.citizens prematurely unsaturated fat is one of the parts of the problem.
:05:24. > :05:27.Now, many food manufacturers and retailers have agreed to help the
:05:28. > :05:31.government tackle the problem by agreeing to reduce the amount of
:05:32. > :05:37.saturated fat in their products. Tesco says it will remove 32 tonnes
:05:38. > :05:43.of saturated fat from products like breadsticks. Morrisons is going to
:05:44. > :05:47.reformulate its spreads, removing around 50 tonnes of saturated fat.
:05:48. > :05:53.Nestle will remove around 3800 tonnes from its cat cat Boris --
:05:54. > :06:01.from its chocolate bar right changing the recipe. But some say it
:06:02. > :06:04.is a drop in the ocean in the fight against obesity and it should not be
:06:05. > :06:09.voluntary. There are fears that less fat will mean more sugar, which
:06:10. > :06:15.carries its own health risks. It is not clear how companies like Nestle
:06:16. > :06:20.will balance taste, cost and cutting fat, but according to a recent
:06:21. > :06:26.study, four out of five of us have no idea how much saturated fat is
:06:27. > :06:32.healthy to eat. Ministers say this is a good start.
:06:33. > :06:38.The Met Office has issued storm warnings with gusts of up to 80 mph
:06:39. > :06:42.for England and Wales tomorrow. Another alert for a southern Wales
