:00:00. > :00:07.Peter, thank you. That's all from the

:00:08. > :00:12.Tonight on Reporting Scotland. A stark warning about the quality of

:00:13. > :00:15.care for older people. The public sector watchdog says not enough is

:00:16. > :00:19.being done to let people be cared for at home, despite the Government

:00:20. > :00:25.spending millions on reforms. We will be asking why there aren't more

:00:26. > :00:28.schemes like this. The majority of our patients you see the

:00:29. > :00:33.weightlifted off their shoulders when they realise they don't have to

:00:34. > :00:38.go into hospital. On the programme. Plans for a ?200 million investment

:00:39. > :00:42.in Clydeside shipbuilding but could it be the end of the industry in

:00:43. > :00:46.Govan? A year after the collapse of the Hall's meat processing factory,

:00:47. > :00:50.we will look at how the town of Broxburn has fared. And the Scotland

:00:51. > :00:54.rugby captain is dropped from the squad ahead of Saturday's match with

:00:55. > :01:09.England. Can Kelly Brown make it back in to the team?

:01:10. > :01:15.Hello. Good evening. Scotland's public sector watchdog is warping

:01:16. > :01:20.that health boards and councils aren't doing enough to improve care

:01:21. > :01:24.for older people. This comes after a review three years into the Scottish

:01:25. > :01:28.Government's ten year plan to change the way care is delivered. That

:01:29. > :01:32.should mean many more people are helped to stay in their own homes,

:01:33. > :01:36.rather than be hospitalised or put into residential care. Aileen Clarke

:01:37. > :01:40.has been looking at the issue. This is going to be something that will

:01:41. > :01:44.affect all of us? Yes, you are right. This report reminds us that

:01:45. > :01:50.you know, the population is ageing really really fast. In fact, in 20

:01:51. > :01:54.years time, a quarter of the population will be over 65. A

:01:55. > :01:59.quarter. Now at the moment, the spend on elderly care services is

:02:00. > :02:03.round about ?4.5 billion a year. But the report says, you know, with the

:02:04. > :02:09.population ageing, at the rate it is, then you know, that that level

:02:10. > :02:13.of spend is just unsustainable. Now the Scottish Government as you

:02:14. > :02:17.mentioned there, it has embarked on this ten year project, to really try

:02:18. > :02:21.and improve care and deliver more care for the elderly, in their own

:02:22. > :02:25.home, which is where they want it. -- homes. But the report finds that

:02:26. > :02:28.progress has been really slow on this.

:02:29. > :02:32.That aside, I have to say, that today, I have been finding out that

:02:33. > :02:37.there are some projects up and running that really do seem to be

:02:38. > :02:42.making a difference to the kind of care available.

:02:43. > :02:46.Hospital at home. Run by NHS Lanarkshire is one of the few

:02:47. > :02:52.schemes the reports highlights which is helping people keep people in

:02:53. > :02:57.their own homes. Your appetite is better? Elizabeth was very ill just

:02:58. > :03:01.before Christmas but wouldn't go into hospital. With this scheme she

:03:02. > :03:06.didn't have to. Nurses, paramedics and doctors came to her, for two

:03:07. > :03:10.weeks until she recovered They couldn't do enough for me. They

:03:11. > :03:15.really looked after me. Do you think you got better aten Shaun that if

:03:16. > :03:20.you had been in hospital? Yes, the The majority of patients you see the

:03:21. > :03:23.weightlifted off their shoulders when they realise they don't have to

:03:24. > :03:26.go into hospital. They feel more relaxed and comfortable if they are

:03:27. > :03:31.treated in the home environment, they do improve a lot faster.

:03:32. > :03:35.And this community approach also has benefits for the health board

:03:36. > :03:39.budget. Yes, we think it is better for the patient in terms of the

:03:40. > :03:44.outcome, it is preferred by the patients and it is cheaper than

:03:45. > :03:46.traditional care. Significantly? Enough to merit its further roll

:03:47. > :03:51.out. Despite all the apparent benefits in

:03:52. > :03:54.Lanarkshire, across Scotland there is not nearly enough of this kind of

:03:55. > :03:59.care accuse coring to today's report. There hasn't been progress

:04:00. > :04:03.fast enough to set up those services that can prevent older people being

:04:04. > :04:08.admitted to hospital unnecessarily and to make sure they can provide,

:04:09. > :04:11.get the support they need to stay at home and lead good quality lives

:04:12. > :04:16.there. There is loads of pilots going on to find out what is best,

:04:17. > :04:20.and obviously, as those pilots are evaluated we decide what needs to be

:04:21. > :04:24.rolled out and what isn't working as well as we thought it might have

:04:25. > :04:27.done. So we are rolling out the successful programmes, and most of

:04:28. > :04:31.them are going to be rolled out over the next two or three years.

:04:32. > :04:37.In 20 years time it is expected there will be thousands of Scots who

:04:38. > :04:43.like ISA who are aged over one hundred. She is 102-and-a-half. She

:04:44. > :04:48.has tried males on wheels but is happier looking after herself, with

:04:49. > :04:54.a little help from her family. I do my housework. I manage fine. I don't

:04:55. > :05:04.like people fussing about me. As long as I am air strike I will carry

:05:05. > :05:12.on the way I am. -- as long as I am able. This is my home. For as long

:05:13. > :05:19.as I live. 102. She doing well? 102-and-a-half

:05:20. > :05:22.she will tell you. She is, and she isn't troubling her local council at

:05:23. > :05:26.all. Councils in general have a big part to play in getting these plans

:05:27. > :05:29.into actions, they said today that they know there is a bit to go here

:05:30. > :05:32.yet, but they have started on that path, and they realise there is more

:05:33. > :05:38.to do. Thank you.

:05:39. > :05:41.Shipbuilding in Govan could end under plans set out by the company

:05:42. > :05:45.running the two naval shipyards on the Clyde but the future of

:05:46. > :05:49.Clydeside appears secure, BAE Systems is planning a huge

:05:50. > :05:54.investment to improve facilities at the Scotstoun yard to build the next

:05:55. > :06:00.generation of frigates. Here is our business editor Douglas Fraser.

:06:01. > :06:05.The last traditional launch on Clyde three years ago. Work at the Govan

:06:06. > :06:09.yard has focussed on giant sections of aircraft carrier that get floated

:06:10. > :06:13.out. Could this be the end of 175 years of shipbuilding in this part

:06:14. > :06:18.of Glasgow? 60 years ago there were eight yards in Glasgow alone. Now

:06:19. > :06:22.there are two naval yards at Scotstoun and Govan with the same

:06:23. > :06:28.workforce of more than 3,000. 800 are like toy go as work declines. In

:06:29. > :06:31.November they won the battle with Portsmouth, but they need

:06:32. > :06:38.investment. So, either BAe invests ?100 million

:06:39. > :06:43.but has the expensive task of floating ships across the Clyde or

:06:44. > :06:48.it closes Govan and invests twice that amount in Scotstoun. I would

:06:49. > :06:52.have a giant fabrication hall long enough to build two of the next

:06:53. > :06:56.generation of frigate, reducing build time by a third. The company

:06:57. > :07:00.is aware it is dealing with a lot of heritage on the south of river. We

:07:01. > :07:05.have a huge strong heritage in our, on the Clyde, both in Govan and

:07:06. > :07:09.Scotstoun, and file that is a strength, and -- I feel. We would be

:07:10. > :07:14.looking to continue to build on that her tan, ewould be employing from

:07:15. > :07:20.Govan, schools and colleges and many of our workforce have worked in both

:07:21. > :07:24.sites, so we operate as one workforce. While there are no job

:07:25. > :07:26.implication from this the end of shipbuilding in Govan is not welcome

:07:27. > :07:30.for those based to the south of the river. The shipyards in Govan is a

:07:31. > :07:34.really important to the local community, to the local economy, if

:07:35. > :07:40.the decision that they will no longer be ship billing in Govan,

:07:41. > :07:44.although they will be in the Clyde. There is an important job to be done

:07:45. > :07:48.by the UK and Scottish Government coming together to make sure there

:07:49. > :07:53.is economic opportunitien that site. They are still working on the

:07:54. > :07:57.aircraft carriers, that will keep them busy for four year but the

:07:58. > :08:00.release on the yard runs out in 2019. We won't know until the end of

:08:01. > :08:08.this year if that will be the point at which the Govan yard closes.

:08:09. > :08:10.And there is another row over defence following reports that UK

:08:11. > :08:15.Government ministers have been urging defence conrack fors to speak

:08:16. > :08:21.out against independence. We can cross to the Scottish Parliament and

:08:22. > :08:24.our political editor Brian Taylor. A Defence Minister has told the

:08:25. > :08:28.Financial Times he has been urging defence contractors, defence

:08:29. > :08:32.companies to speak up for the union and against independence, citing the

:08:33. > :08:38.level of employment in the defence industry in Scotland. Now, the SNP

:08:39. > :08:41.say that is unacceptable pressure because those companies are

:08:42. > :08:47.dependent on the mod pod for orders. Here is the Deputy First Minister.

:08:48. > :08:50.There needs to be full disclosure about what other businesses are

:08:51. > :08:53.being intimidated by the UK Government into speaking out, and

:08:54. > :08:58.secondly, there has to be a commitment this kind of behaviour

:08:59. > :09:02.will stop. In response to that, the Scotland Office minister David

:09:03. > :09:07.Mundell says this is panic stations from the SNP. He says confronted

:09:08. > :09:12.with unacceptable truth ass he put it about independence, they are

:09:13. > :09:16.retreating into a bunker mentality. Thank you.

:09:17. > :09:20.Up to 15 councillors in east Ayrshire accepted gifts and

:09:21. > :09:24.hospitality from two mining firms that went bust, including a trip to

:09:25. > :09:30.wash Celtic play Barcelona in Spain, food hampers an alcohol. The

:09:31. > :09:34.collapse of Scottish Coal and ATH Resources left a ?130 million

:09:35. > :09:38.shortfall in the cash needed to restore opencast sites. A cent

:09:39. > :09:44.review of the council's planning authority role highlighted failures

:09:45. > :09:46.among officials. A Holyrood committee says plans to establish

:09:47. > :09:50.corroboration, that is the need for two sources of evidence in criminal

:09:51. > :09:53.law should be ditched. The majority of MSPs on the Justice Committee

:09:54. > :09:57.believe the Government's failed to make the case for this major legal

:09:58. > :10:01.change. The Justice Secretary is asking a judge to review the

:10:02. > :10:04.alternatives. Here is our political correspondent.

:10:05. > :10:09.The police need to gather evidence from two or more sources for a

:10:10. > :10:15.prosecution to go ahead in Scotland. This general requirement is for what

:10:16. > :10:19.is known as corroboration. The committee has looked at the plans to

:10:20. > :10:21.establish it but a majority of member, including the convener are

:10:22. > :10:26.not keen. I am not convince a case has been

:10:27. > :10:31.made to establish corroboration, I have said it shouldn't be in the

:10:32. > :10:36.bill. However, I am always open to persuasion if good arguments come

:10:37. > :10:42.forward. The Justice Secretary is determined to go ahead with

:10:43. > :10:46.abolition, but he has appointed the former high court judge to review

:10:47. > :10:50.what additional safeguards against wrongful conviction might be put in

:10:51. > :10:56.place of corroboration. So, if MSPs vote for abolition this

:10:57. > :11:01.year, the Government says it won't actually take effect until after

:11:02. > :11:06.Parliament has had the chance to consider and act on the findings,

:11:07. > :11:11.next year. At Question Time opposition leaders

:11:12. > :11:16.said this was not on. Surely First Minister, it is better to make good

:11:17. > :11:23.law later, than bad law now. Law making in reverse is a shoddy

:11:24. > :11:29.way to expect Scotland's Parliament to act. The First Minister said it

:11:30. > :11:32.was stopping cases of cases of domestic abuse and sexual crime

:11:33. > :11:35.getting to court Because there are many hundreds, perhaps thousands of

:11:36. > :11:39.people who cannot, because of this general rule bring their cases to

:11:40. > :11:44.court or get their cases brought to court, there is a feel of serious

:11:45. > :11:48.injustice. Most of the legal establishment,

:11:49. > :11:56.including all be one of our current judges, are opposed to establishing

:11:57. > :12:00.corroboration, lol leisuring corroboration. The evidence

:12:01. > :12:02.presented so far has not persuaded Parliament's Justice Committee the

:12:03. > :12:06.case for ending corroboration has been made.

:12:07. > :12:11.You are watching Reporting Scotland from the BBC.

:12:12. > :12:15.Still to come tonight. How Scotland's ice maker is in Russia,

:12:16. > :12:20.to bring the curling rinks up to Olympic standard.

:12:21. > :12:24.And in sport, Scotland captain Kelly Brown is dropped for the Six Nations

:12:25. > :12:30.match against England. Find out why and out of Africa, into paisley and

:12:31. > :12:36.maybe on to Brazil. Sportsperson's new signing sets an ambitious

:12:37. > :12:39.target. -- St Mirren's. Two members of staff have been

:12:40. > :12:43.reported to the Procurator Fiscal after an investigation into the

:12:44. > :12:48.standard of care at a private school in Aberdeen. Support is being

:12:49. > :12:55.offered to parents of pupils at Hamilton School. What can you tell

:12:56. > :13:00.us Kevin? Well, Sally, the police and the care inspectorate have been

:13:01. > :13:03.investigating allegations about the school here, since BBC Scotland

:13:04. > :13:08.highlighted some concerns that were raised just over two weeks' ago, it

:13:09. > :13:15.is a fee paying school that caters for round 350 pupil, aged from three

:13:16. > :13:18.months to 12 years. This afternoon Police Scotland issued a brief

:13:19. > :13:21.statement saying two people had been reported to the Procurator Fiscal in

:13:22. > :13:27.connection with its investigation, they were a 65-year-old woman, and a

:13:28. > :13:32.25-year-old woman. Both of them understood as we say to be members

:13:33. > :13:36.of staff. The care inspectorate have issued a detailed statement as well,

:13:37. > :13:40.saying they have now since that announcement taken steps to

:13:41. > :13:43.safeguard children at the nursery, they say they have informed the

:13:44. > :13:48.school that staff members who are the subject of a police report must

:13:49. > :13:53.not have contact with the nursery, or be involved in running it. They

:13:54. > :13:58.say so we require the school to appoint a suitably qualified skill

:13:59. > :14:03.and experienced manager immediately, to be in day-to-day charge of the

:14:04. > :14:07.nursery. The care inspectorate and Aberdeen City Council say they are

:14:08. > :14:12.offering support and advice to the school, to try to keep disruption to

:14:13. > :14:16.a minimum, the school say they are co-operating fully with the police

:14:17. > :14:19.in their inquiries, and a joint inspection with the care

:14:20. > :14:27.inspectorate and education Scotland will be launched tomorrow.

:14:28. > :14:30.It is a year since the Hall's of Broxburn factory in West Lothian

:14:31. > :14:33.shut down, with the loss of almost 1,700 jobs. It left the town with a

:14:34. > :14:42.massive unemployment problem. One year on, Morag Kinniburgh has been

:14:43. > :14:50.back, to see how Broxburn is coping. We just do all, is commonly entire

:14:51. > :14:56.site has been flattened, its future unclear. It used to employ 1,700

:14:57. > :15:02.people and attempts to find another buyer field. Some workers moved

:15:03. > :15:11.away. Some history. Struggling to cope. I am struggling. I am behind

:15:12. > :15:16.on my rent and a council tax. We're not getting enough money in. We

:15:17. > :15:26.visited the town when it closed to see how the place was affected. The

:15:27. > :15:28.shop is still open, but only just. Make it has condoned quite

:15:29. > :15:39.significantly over the past 12 months. I just talked that we get a

:15:40. > :15:44.better country that Valentine's Day so that I can pay my bills. It

:15:45. > :15:50.remains a battle here for many unable to pay their bills. Others

:15:51. > :15:55.argue that the town has adapted and unemployment levels have fallen.

:15:56. > :16:02.Employment has improved over the past 12 months. It is no way that

:16:03. > :16:06.was before the closure of the plant. They are hoping that incentive

:16:07. > :16:13.schemes will help many small businesses going. They have been

:16:14. > :16:19.offering their services that have been attractive to the local

:16:20. > :16:22.business community. Since the factory closed, some people have

:16:23. > :16:28.left the area and some shops have closed down. Other people have found

:16:29. > :16:32.work, albeit with fewer hours and low for PA.

:16:33. > :16:41.Now, a look at some other stories from across Scotland this

:16:42. > :16:44.Thursday... Horse riders are being issued with a safety message. The

:16:45. > :16:51.warning from the British horse Society comes from the recent death

:16:52. > :16:57.of a woman in ten horses killed after being hit on a dark road in

:16:58. > :17:06.Dumfries. If this, it will give a car and extra three seconds to see

:18:59. > :19:07.everything is right for the opening ceremony. It is a similar situation

:19:08. > :19:10.at the Carling Arena. We are hoping that both of our teams will bring

:19:11. > :19:14.home a coupling medal for Great Britain. But there is another Scot

:19:15. > :19:20.involved making sure that everything will succeed. He makes coupling

:19:26. > :19:31.and his team of local volunteers are hoping to create the perfect place.

:19:32. > :19:38.It takes a while to get it absolutely level, perfect for

:19:39. > :19:45.playing standards. We want to make it a game of skill and then simply

:19:46. > :19:52.to the ability of the players. It is a job which has many challenges.

:19:53. > :20:01.Fortunately, he has a good team with him. We are able to use people who

:20:02. > :20:05.have either been involved in the sport of the sport other pastoral

:20:15. > :20:23.There's a bit of chemistry involved, but the likes of temperature and

:20:24. > :20:27.humidity are all involved. And that little taster of winter

:20:35. > :20:36.Scotland captain Kelly Brown has been dropped for the Six Nations

:20:37. > :20:47.match against England, raising question marks over his future with

:20:48. > :20:51.the team. Coach Scott Johnson says Brown must improve his level of

:20:52. > :21:01.performance if he is to play for the national team again. Was this his

:21:02. > :21:04.last appearance as Scotland captain? The defeat against Ireland at the

:21:05. > :21:13.weekend has seen the tax being wielded. It is a difficult one for

:21:14. > :21:22.us. We thought the balance in the team was not right. We needed to

:21:23. > :21:28.find out if Chris could do it and that is why you think it is the

:21:29. > :21:35.correct decision. There are three changes to the team for the match

:21:36. > :21:47.against England at Murrayfield. The omission of the captain is a seismic

:21:49. > :22:02.needs to improve in. The tin plate the last time Scotland

:22:03. > :22:09.triumphed against England in Edinburgh. His reaction to

:22:10. > :22:11.bounceback will now be key to the future both for the team and for

:22:12. > :22:15.him. St Mirren's new signing Eric Djemba

:22:16. > :22:17.Djemba wants to play his way back on to the world stage. The

:22:18. > :22:20.ex-Manchester United midfielder could make his debut in the Scottish

:22:21. > :22:24.cup tie against Dundee United on Sunday, but he also wants to play in

:22:25. > :22:32.the biggest tournament of all. Today, though, he was promoting his

:22:33. > :22:39.new club's upcoming family fun day. That is Eric Djemba Djemba, the

:22:40. > :22:52.African who has come to Paisley in a bid to get to Brazil. He has played

:22:53. > :22:58.in France and played for Cameroon and two World Cup finals. He then

:22:59. > :23:01.signed for Manchester United, with some Alex Ferguson believing he

:23:02. > :23:08.could have taken over from Roy Keane. That did not work out. He has

:23:09. > :23:09.played in Denmark, Israel and Serbia, but is mixed Prez please

:23:10. > :23:19.leave. -- his next stop is Paisley. You are

:23:20. > :23:28.trying to get into the World Cup squad? Yes, I think I will hopefully

:23:29. > :23:37.do great year and try to go forward with my new team mates. The club man

:23:38. > :23:53.can help with the fashion conscious Eric .doc and his new colours. That

:23:54. > :23:56.is the strip from last year. That is the first step, the second strip and

:23:57. > :24:03.the substrate. The rear of the yellow one quite often.

:24:04. > :24:11.Hang on to your hats. Now, a look at what else is

:24:12. > :24:19.happening across Scottish sport. The Inverness defender is free to play

:24:20. > :24:25.in the league cup final against Aberdeen. His red card in the

:24:26. > :24:32.semifinal against Hearts has been rescinded. Thus making, Aberdeen,

:24:33. > :24:39.the opponents semifinal, will face Celtic at Celtic Park in the

:24:40. > :24:43.Scottish cup. Just because we are in one cup final, the players should

:24:44. > :24:48.not be satisfied with that. We need to do as well as we can in the

:24:49. > :24:57.Scottish cup. The Scottish women's hockey squad flies to South Africa

:24:58. > :24:59.to play seven matches, with the courts trying to work out who will

:25:00. > :25:05.make the final squad for the Commonwealth games. Whether you have

:25:06. > :25:11.got one or 100, everyone is endemic. We will be looking at all

:25:12. > :25:19.the sessions of all the different varieties. Alistair Forsyth is among

:25:20. > :25:28.four golfers sharing the leak of the Johannesburg open. A top-10 place

:25:29. > :25:31.could secure a place in the British Open in July. Is used 24 hours a on

:25:32. > :25:44.the BBC sport website. .

:25:45. > :25:49.The weekend fast approaching and here is the girl who can tell us

:25:50. > :25:50.what sort of weather we can expect. Gillian, are you the bearer of good

:25:51. > :26:00.news? We have certainly been enjoying

:26:01. > :26:04.quieter conditions than many people in England, fret they have been

:26:05. > :26:09.ensuring some horrendous weather. Overnight, most places will be dry

:26:10. > :26:14.with clear spells. A fairly widespread frost with temperatures

:26:15. > :26:23.getting down to two or three Celsius, in the city and a lot more

:26:24. > :26:32.in rural areas. In frosty start for many of us tomorrow. The cloud will

:26:33. > :26:35.thin and break and we should see the sunshine breaking through in the

:26:36. > :26:43.afternoon. Scattered showers around as well, particularly in the

:26:44. > :26:47.Northern Isles. For the bulk of the country, a lot of dry weather and

:26:48. > :26:58.bright weather, with some may spells of sunshine. Temperature rise, about

:26:59. > :27:03.six or seven Celsius at rest. Through the rest of the afternoon

:27:04. > :27:07.and towards evening, it should stay dry for the first part of the night

:27:08. > :27:13.and the comes the change. Relocation from the south-west and that is

:27:14. > :27:17.attached to this area of low pressure swinging in from the

:27:18. > :27:22.Atlantic. In the early hours of Saturday, it will push a band of

:27:23. > :27:29.rain across much of the country, with some small on low levels in the

:27:30. > :27:36.North of the country. An improvement for the north of the country in the

:27:37. > :27:41.afternoon, drier and brighter. For Sunday, low pressure still the

:27:42. > :27:45.dominant feature. A fairly unsettled day, with a lot of cloud and a

:27:46. > :27:49.scattering of showers, most of them in the West.

:27:50. > :27:51.Now, a reminder of tonight's main news.

:27:52. > :27:54.Scotland's public sector watchdog is warning that health boards and

:27:55. > :28:03.councils are not doing nearly enough to improve care for older people.

:28:04. > :28:06.And that is all from Reporting Scotland for now. I will be back

:28:07. > :28:10.with the headlines at eight o'clock and the late bulletin just after the

:28:11. > :28:12.ten o'clock news. Until then, from everyone on the team, right across

:28:13. > :28:13.the country,
