0:00:15 > 0:00:17The International Development Secretary says the charity lied
0:00:17 > 0:00:20to her, about the full details of what went on in Haiti,

0:01:11 > 0:01:13The government has warned it will cut funding to Oxfam,
0:01:13 > 0:01:16if it cannot adequately explain it's handling of reports of sexual
0:01:16 > 0:01:19misconduct, by aid workers in Haiti.
0:01:19 > 0:01:21The International Development Secretary, Penny Mordant,
0:01:21 > 0:01:23says the charity had failed in its moral leadership,
0:01:23 > 0:01:26and lied to her department.
0:01:26 > 0:01:28She'll meet Oxfam representatives tomorrow.
0:01:28 > 0:01:30In response, they've announced new measures,
0:01:30 > 0:01:32for the prevention and handling of sexual abuse cases.
0:01:32 > 0:01:37Angus Crawford reports.
0:01:37 > 0:01:42First Haiti, now Chad, one of the poorest countries on earth.
0:01:42 > 0:01:46New allegations that Oxfam workers paid local women for sex.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48The charity says it is shocked and dismayed but can't
0:01:48 > 0:01:52confirm the reports.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55The head of the mission at the time, Roland van Hauwermeiren,
0:01:55 > 0:01:57was the same man who five years later in Haiti resigned
0:01:57 > 0:02:01after admitting using prostitutes.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03Four others were sacked.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05As the scandal grows, the International Development
0:02:05 > 0:02:07Secretary, Penny Mordaunt, has sent a strong warning
0:02:07 > 0:02:09to all British charities receiving public money -
0:02:09 > 0:02:11they will lose the cash if they can't show a robust
0:02:11 > 0:02:18approach to safeguarding.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20I am very clear, it does not matter whether you have a whistle-blowing
0:02:20 > 0:02:23hotline, it does not matter if you have got good
0:02:23 > 0:02:25safeguarding practices in place, if the moral leadership at the top
0:02:25 > 0:02:33of the organisation is not there, we cannot have you as a partner.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37She said Oxfam didn't give her department the full facts
0:02:37 > 0:02:40about what happened in Haiti.
0:02:40 > 0:02:41It's about, was there any harm done?
0:02:41 > 0:02:44Was there any involvement of the beneficiaries of aid involved?
0:02:44 > 0:02:46Was there any impact on them?
0:02:46 > 0:02:48And they told us categorically no.
0:02:48 > 0:02:49And they also told us...
0:02:49 > 0:02:50That was a lie, wasn't it?
0:02:50 > 0:02:51They also told us...
0:02:51 > 0:02:53That was a lie, wasn't it?
0:02:53 > 0:02:54Well, quite.
0:02:54 > 0:02:58At a meeting tomorrow, the charity will be given one last
0:02:58 > 0:03:02chance or be stripped of its taxpayer funding.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04BBC News asked Oxfam for an interview.
0:03:04 > 0:03:05The request was refused.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08But in a statement, its trustees announced a series of reforms,
0:03:08 > 0:03:12to strengthen the vetting and recruitment of staff,
0:03:12 > 0:03:15set up an external whistle-blowing helpline, and bring in mandatory
0:03:15 > 0:03:21safeguarding training for new employees.
0:03:21 > 0:03:25There have been more revelations about other charities, too.

0:03:27 > 0:03:29Red Cross have all investigated staff over sexual
0:03:29 > 0:03:30misconduct allegations.
0:03:30 > 0:03:37Some who know the sector well are not surprised.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40People need to realise that the vast majority of aid work in crisis
0:03:40 > 0:03:42situations is extraordinary, it saves lives, it helps people
0:03:42 > 0:03:46who are very vulnerable, but aid agencies need to do more
0:03:46 > 0:03:49so that the best people are going into these areas,
0:03:49 > 0:03:52they are monitored, and these people who are very vulnerable, they have
0:03:52 > 0:04:00a voice in how this unfolds.
0:04:01 > 0:04:03The Government is now demanding every charity receiving taxpayers'
0:04:03 > 0:04:05money disclose all past and current cases of sexual misconduct.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07A scandal affecting one charity is now threatening
0:04:07 > 0:04:08to engulf the entire sector.
0:04:08 > 0:04:16Angus Crawford, BBC News.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24A Russian airliner has crashed near Moscow,
0:04:24 > 0:04:25killing all 71 people on board.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28The plane operated by Saratov Airlines,
0:04:28 > 0:04:31was en route to the city of Orsk in the Ural mountains, when it came
0:04:31 > 0:04:34down near the village of Argunovo, minutes after take off.
0:04:34 > 0:04:42Sarah Rainsford has the details.
0:04:42 > 0:04:46The remains of the flight are scattered in the snow in fields just
0:04:46 > 0:04:51outside Moscow. The fragments of a plane that plunged to the ground
0:04:51 > 0:04:59minutes after take-off. Everyone on board has been killed. The aircraft
0:04:59 > 0:05:02was An-148 operated by Saratov Airlines. It says the plane itself
0:05:02 > 0:05:08shown here was just eight years old and the pilot was experienced. The
0:05:08 > 0:05:13flight took off from Moscow heading for Orsk in Southern Russia and it
0:05:13 > 0:05:16disappeared from radar is moments later. There was no emergency call
0:05:16 > 0:05:23from the crew. In Orsk tonight there is despair. Relatives of the 71
0:05:23 > 0:05:25passengers and crew have been gathering but they have been told
0:05:25 > 0:05:30there is no hope of any survivors. Medics have been sent to help calm
0:05:30 > 0:05:36and comfort them. At the crash site outside Moscow, the day breed is
0:05:36 > 0:05:41spread over a wide area. It was mid-afternoon and people in nearby
0:05:41 > 0:05:46villagers say they saw the plane full from the sky. This man says it
0:05:46 > 0:05:51came down in pieces. Others have described seeing the flash of an
0:05:51 > 0:05:56explosion first. Police have now cordoned off the area as teams are
0:05:56 > 0:06:00sent in to search for bodies. One flight recorder has been found but
0:06:00 > 0:06:04there are no clues yet as to what caused this disaster. The freezing
0:06:04 > 0:06:08conditions are just one of many factors that investigators are
0:06:08 > 0:06:15looking at as they continue their work here through the night. Sarah
0:06:15 > 0:06:18Raynsford, BBC News, in central Russia.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21The uncle of an 11 year old girl, who was stabbed to death
0:06:21 > 0:06:23in Wolverhampton, has been charged with murder.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25Jasmine Forrester was found seriously injured in a house,
0:06:25 > 0:06:28in the early hours of Friday morning, and died later in hospital.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Delroy Forrester, is due to appear in court tomorrow.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33A five-year-old boy who died after falling into a fast-flowing
0:06:33 > 0:06:35river in County Antrim, has been named as Kayden Fleck.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37It happened yesterday on the Braid River at Ballymena.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39His body was recovered an hour and a half later,
0:06:39 > 0:06:45four miles downstream.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Theresa May and some of her senior ministers,
0:06:47 > 0:06:50are expected to give a series of speeches in the coming weeks,
0:06:50 > 0:06:52giving more details of the Government's Brexit plans.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55It follows criticism that not enough is known about what the future
0:06:55 > 0:06:56relationship might be, once the UK leaves
0:06:56 > 0:06:57the European Union.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00Our Political Correspondent Iain Watson is here with me ....
0:07:00 > 0:07:08Will the Prime Minister be able to silence her critics?
0:07:08 > 0:07:14Is this likely to work? They are hoping that is the case. The
0:07:14 > 0:07:17government has been accused of kicking the can down the road on the
0:07:17 > 0:07:21negotiations but within three weeks, that will stop. The tin opener will
0:07:21 > 0:07:26come out and we will see the contents, the Prime Minister will be
0:07:26 > 0:07:30setting out her future vision and some of her ministers will be
0:07:30 > 0:07:36filling in details. It is a rather tricky task before we get there, to
0:07:36 > 0:07:39negotiate a transition period for the couple of years after Brexit and
0:07:39 > 0:07:48a spanner
0:07:48 > 0:07:50a spanner was put into the works last week when the commission
0:07:50 > 0:07:52suggested that Britain could face sanctions if it did not apply EU
0:07:52 > 0:07:55rules during that time. David Davis accused them of acting in bad faith.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57Tonight there is growing confidence that the commission will rethink its
0:07:57 > 0:08:01approach and David Davis has been revisiting European capitals to
0:08:01 > 0:08:03persuade them to persuade the commission to reach a reasonable
0:08:03 > 0:08:08deal. The commission is sticking to its line, they are saying that a
0:08:08 > 0:08:12transition period is still not a given and that phrase will send a
0:08:12 > 0:08:21shiver up the spine of British businesses.Thank you.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23The leader of South Africa's ruling ANC party Cyril Ramaphosa,
0:08:23 > 0:08:25says the future of the country's President Jacob Zuma,
0:08:25 > 0:08:28will be finalised tomorrow. Speaking in Cape Town at an event
0:08:28 > 0:08:30marking the centenary of the birth of Nelson Mandela,
0:08:30 > 0:08:33Mr Ramaphosa made it clear that if the President didn't resign,
0:08:33 > 0:08:35he'd be asked to step down on Monday.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37Mr Zuma's eight years in office have been marred by numerous
0:08:37 > 0:08:39corruption allegations.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43We are currently engaged, comrades, in discussions around the transition
0:08:43 > 0:08:48to a new administration and specifically to resolve
0:08:48 > 0:08:51the issues and the position of the President of the Republic
0:08:51 > 0:08:58of South Africa.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06The Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson, has held talks with Myanmar's
0:09:06 > 0:09:10leader Aung San Suu Kyi, over the Rohingya refugee crisis.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Hundreds of thousands of people have been forced to leave Myanmar,
0:09:13 > 0:09:15seeking shelter in neighbouring Bangladesh, following a military
0:09:15 > 0:09:20crackdown, and violence from pro Government militias.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23Mr Johnson has called for the safe return of all refugees
0:09:23 > 0:09:25to their homes, and a full investigation into the violence
0:09:25 > 0:09:28in Rakhine State.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Reeta Chakrabarti is travelling with the Foreign Secretary.
0:09:30 > 0:09:36Her report does contain some flash photography.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39Among the burnt out remains at a Rohingya home,
0:09:39 > 0:09:41Boris Johnson took in a chilling sight, the charred
0:09:41 > 0:09:46remains of a former life.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48He found the site himself although his visit to this region
0:09:48 > 0:09:56was heavily controlled by the Myanmar authorities.
0:09:56 > 0:10:00Can you work out where the house was?
0:10:00 > 0:10:02He travels from village
0:10:02 > 0:10:03to village by helicopter,
0:10:03 > 0:10:05from the air you could see whole areas raised to the ground.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08It is where the Myanmar military and Buddhist mobs are accused
0:10:08 > 0:10:09of pogroms against the Rohingya.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12These pictures of burning villages in the area were filmed
0:10:12 > 0:10:19by the BBC last year.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23You genuinely have no idea who did it?
0:10:23 > 0:10:26Some Rohingya are still here and were brought out by the Myanmar
0:10:26 > 0:10:27authorities to speak to Boris Johnson.
0:10:27 > 0:10:29All denied any knowledge of who had destroyed their village.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32This habitation has clearly been burnt out and deserted.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34One of the Rohingya villagers that I spoke to a little earlier,
0:10:34 > 0:10:38told me in English, I hope you understand, we are in a very bad
0:10:38 > 0:10:39situation and unhappy.
0:10:39 > 0:10:42He didn't dare tell me who had burnt this village.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45One government minister accompanying us told me it was what he called
0:10:45 > 0:10:48Rohingya terrorists who turned on their own people and set
0:10:48 > 0:10:51fire to their homes.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54What do you think happened here?
0:10:54 > 0:11:00A terrorist attack against them.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03Definitely that.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05Earlier in the capital, a meeting with Aung San Suu Kyi,
0:11:05 > 0:11:07who has attracted international condemnation for not speaking
0:11:07 > 0:11:09up for the Rohingya.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12What came of their talks?
0:11:12 > 0:11:15I don't think it has come through to her, the whole extent,
0:11:15 > 0:11:16the horror of what has happened.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19It is absolutely devastating and I think what is needed
0:11:19 > 0:11:20now is some leadership.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23Some calm, but some leadership, working with the UN agencies to get
0:11:23 > 0:11:31these people back home.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37But this is what awaits any Rohingya who do come back.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39A settlement with high fences and barbed wire.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41The Myanmar government calls this a reception centre.

0:12:15 > 0:12:20France was the first to find their flow. Thommo questioning the
0:12:20 > 0:12:26Scottish faithful. This much was expected before defeat to Wales,
0:12:26 > 0:12:30much was demanded. Shauna Maitland answering the call. Having found his
0:12:30 > 0:12:37stride, Thommo collected his kick, Laidlaw did not. A response again

0:13:47 > 0:13:49in South Korea, cross country skier Andrew Musgrave very nearly
0:13:49 > 0:13:51gave Team GB its first medal of the games...
0:13:51 > 0:13:53The Scotsman, who learnt his sport on roller-skis, finished 7th
0:13:53 > 0:13:56in the ski-athlon after helping set the pace until the final lap
0:13:56 > 0:13:58of the 30 kilometre course.
0:13:58 > 0:14:06Our Correspondent Andy Swiss was watching in Pyeongchang.
0:14:10 > 0:14:16The winter Olympics at their most wintry, -16 and bone chilling winds
0:14:16 > 0:14:21but Andrew Musgrave was about to warm the spirits. And they are
0:14:21 > 0:14:25underway. Cross-country skiing is not a traditional Olympic strength
0:14:25 > 0:14:32for Britain, their previous best, the 20 Ninth Place in Sochi for
0:14:32 > 0:14:37Andrew Musgrave. With barely a lap to go, there he was remarkably in
0:14:37 > 0:14:44silver medal position. Could he hang on? Not quite as the Norwegian raced
0:14:44 > 0:14:48to the old, Musgrave faded to seven but with his best events still to
0:14:48 > 0:14:53come, that is some feat. What a result for Andrew Musgrave, he could
0:14:53 > 0:14:57not quite get that first medal for Britain but even so, the performance
0:14:57 > 0:15:02of his life.With a lap and a half to go, I was pretty confident and I
0:15:02 > 0:15:07thought I would be able to get a medal. I just could not quite keep
0:15:07 > 0:15:13up that pace.It was pretty tough. On a day when some events were
0:15:13 > 0:15:22postponed due to high winds, one man sword. At the age of just 17, the
0:15:22 > 0:15:26American spinning to snowboarding gold, a teenage triumph to light up
0:15:26 > 0:15:30these games. Andy Swiss, BBC News.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33There's much more on the Winter Olympics on the BBC Sport website

0:15:35 > 0:15:38But from me for now - back to you.
0:15:38 > 0:15:39That's it.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42I'll be back with the late news at Ten, but now on BBC1,
