:00:00. > :00:07.BBC One we now join the BBC's news teams where you are.

:00:08. > :00:10.Maritime patrol aircraft will once again be based

:00:11. > :00:12.in Scotland, five years after the Nimrod fleet was scrapped.

:00:13. > :00:16.But the UK Government says fewer new warships will be built on the Clyde.

:00:17. > :00:24.Also on the programme: SNP MP Natalie McGarry is being

:00:25. > :00:25.investigated over financial discrepancies at the campaign group

:00:26. > :00:43.Uncovering a century's worth of history which had wounded Great War

:00:44. > :00:43.heroes. What do you think

:00:44. > :00:54.about that new Scotland strip? If a guy can carry off pink and

:00:55. > :00:59.where it could, would be scared. The pink one? It's quite nice, you know.

:01:00. > :01:14.I would wear it for football. Would you wear it on a night out? LAUGHTER

:01:15. > :01:18.There's mixed news for Scotland in the UK Government's Defence Review.

:01:19. > :01:20.The Prime Minister has announced that nine new maritime patrol

:01:21. > :01:24.aircraft will be based at RAF Lossiemouth in Moray.

:01:25. > :01:26.But the SNP has criticised an apparent reduction

:01:27. > :01:31.in the number of Type 26 warships due to be built on the Clyde.

:01:32. > :01:34.In a moment, we'll have a report from Lossiemouth with reaction

:01:35. > :01:36.from the community there, but first from Westminster

:01:37. > :01:54.Immense speed and strength and safety and all the world knows it.

:01:55. > :01:58.It was once the proud shipbuilding capital of the world. At its peak at

:01:59. > :02:05.the beginning of the last century, Glasgow's yards have now reduced in

:02:06. > :02:09.size. But they are still a mainstay of Scotland significant parts of the

:02:10. > :02:15.two new aircraft carriers being assembled were fashioned on the

:02:16. > :02:20.Clyde. But, just how much future work can the yards expect? At the

:02:21. > :02:27.moment, these ships only exist on a computer animation. But, ministers

:02:28. > :02:30.say at Type 26 frigates will definitely be built on the Clyde.

:02:31. > :02:36.The problem is, that's not as many as some had first thought or had

:02:37. > :02:42.hoped for. Voters in Scotland were promised 13 T206 vessels, just along

:02:43. > :02:46.with people voted no in the independence referendum. It was a

:02:47. > :02:53.clear promise. It's just over one year since the referendum. And no

:02:54. > :02:58.voters or shipyard workers are being betrayed with a 40% cut. The Prime

:02:59. > :03:03.Minister insists Scotland is doing well out of this review. The fact

:03:04. > :03:08.is, Scotland now has the opportunity to build more than 13 frigates.

:03:09. > :03:14.Because of the changes that we are making. There will be at the Type

:03:15. > :03:18.26s and at least another five of the new type of frigates, probably more.

:03:19. > :03:23.And they can be built in Scotland, if the conditions are right. For

:03:24. > :03:27.Labour, there are also concerns about how things will work in

:03:28. > :03:32.practice. Can you promise to confirm, as he was talking just now,

:03:33. > :03:36.that the reduction in the number of Type 26 frigates we are producing

:03:37. > :03:41.from 13 to eight will not impact on the Navy's ability to protect the

:03:42. > :03:45.carriers? Can the Prime Minister gives them reassurance to workers on

:03:46. > :03:49.the Clyde? Last year they were told 13 ships were being built, now it is

:03:50. > :03:56.at Foster also revealed, a rise in the cost of replacing the Trident

:03:57. > :04:01.nuclear submarines. The bill has now been put at ?31 billion. ?6 billion

:04:02. > :04:03.more than previous estimates. That will only increase the temperature

:04:04. > :04:07.of that political controversy. The decision to reinstate

:04:08. > :04:10.the fleet of maritime patrol aircraft comes just five years

:04:11. > :04:12.after the scrapping of the Nimrods Our reporter Craig Anderson has been

:04:13. > :04:18.to Lossiemouth, where they'll based, to find out what impact the decision

:04:19. > :04:32.might have on the Moray community. Nine Poseidon Maritime patrol

:04:33. > :04:36.aircraft will be based here at Lossiemouth and which ever way you

:04:37. > :04:39.look at it, that is an astonishing turnaround for a government which

:04:40. > :04:42.five years ago decided it didn't need specialist aircraft of this

:04:43. > :04:46.type. The decision to scrap the new Nimrod fleet before any of the

:04:47. > :04:50.planes had flown in anger was taken with the project years late and

:04:51. > :04:53.hundreds of millions of pounds over budget and its sound of pounds over

:04:54. > :04:58.budget and it sounded just some miles from Lossiemouth. Today's

:04:59. > :05:02.U-turn has delighted local politicians. In some ways it is

:05:03. > :05:07.regrettable it has taken this long to realise that we need to have

:05:08. > :05:12.replacement for Nimrod. And I am glad that that realisation has

:05:13. > :05:17.percolated. I am delighted that they are coming back here. We had an

:05:18. > :05:21.ideal base for them that is now used by the engineers, but we will take

:05:22. > :05:25.them to Lossiemouth, where they are going. With no maritime patrol

:05:26. > :05:29.aircraft to its name, Britain has had to rely on Nato allies like

:05:30. > :05:35.France and Canada. Even with in recent days, to send out claims to

:05:36. > :05:39.try to track down snooping Russian subs in UK waters. -- send out

:05:40. > :05:40.planes. The new patrol fleet will end that embarrassment. These people

:05:41. > :05:45.out there, end that embarrassment. These people

:05:46. > :05:51.Russian or terrorists, what about, we have got to fight fire with fire.

:05:52. > :05:58.INAUDIBLE They will use up the houses the

:05:59. > :06:02.Arias have got already. As an island nation it is a good idea. It will be

:06:03. > :06:07.good for Moray. Introducing rescue services, we could probably do it.

:06:08. > :06:10.They have taken enough away, give something back. We can guarantee

:06:11. > :06:16.that Lossiemouth will continue to exist, it is good. The UK will buy

:06:17. > :06:20.the new planes from blowing in the United States, but we don't know the

:06:21. > :06:23.exact timetable from their arrival. But presumably it will mean

:06:24. > :06:26.exact timetable from their arrival. construction of hangers and

:06:27. > :06:31.engineering facilities -- Boeing. That will mean more jobs and

:06:32. > :06:34.presumably more jobs and an economic boost outside the wire. The decision

:06:35. > :06:39.has been warmly welcomed here in Moray.

:06:40. > :06:45.Back to Westminster. David is at the Ministry of Defence. A boost for

:06:46. > :06:51.Moray, but claims this Ministry of Defence. A boost for

:06:52. > :06:52.the Clyde, what is the fairest analysis of the impact of the

:06:53. > :06:56.Defence Review? Very simply, there is some good,

:06:57. > :07:00.some bad. Very simply, there is some good,

:07:01. > :07:08.bit like a curate it reinforces the old adage that

:07:09. > :07:13.defence is big in Scotland and Scotland is big for defence. As

:07:14. > :07:16.regards, the aircraft is going to Moray, most people will be very

:07:17. > :07:19.pleased and they will see it as writing

:07:20. > :07:23.pleased and they will see it as the 2010 Defence Review when the

:07:24. > :07:29.Nimrods aircraft were scrapped and moved to nearby Kinloss. The yards,

:07:30. > :07:32.there will be some relief that they will at least get at ships. They

:07:33. > :07:35.there will be some relief that they will hope for more in the future.

:07:36. > :07:38.The SNP says there should have been far more. The workers on the Clyde

:07:39. > :07:42.and people of Scotland far more. The workers on the Clyde

:07:43. > :07:44.betrayed. That is what they say. This is as much about politics as it

:07:45. > :07:47.is about pure defence procurement. An SNP MP has been named

:07:48. > :07:49.as the person being investigated by police over financial

:07:50. > :07:52.discrepancies from a campaign fund Natalie McGarry's lawyer says she is

:07:53. > :07:57.confident there is no wrongdoing on her part and is prepared to meet

:07:58. > :08:00.with police. Our reporter Catriona Renton is

:08:01. > :08:04.in the newsroom now. What's

:08:05. > :08:14.the background to this, Catriona? She was one

:08:15. > :08:21.of the founder members of Women for Independence, a group founded in

:08:22. > :08:24.2012 by a group of activists with the intention of promoting women's

:08:25. > :08:29.voices in the referendum debate. Concerns were first raised

:08:30. > :08:34.during the summer that there were discrepencies

:08:35. > :08:36.in the organisations accounts. The group's national committee,

:08:37. > :08:38.on which McGarry sits, was informed of this at a meeting

:08:39. > :08:41.on Sunday afternoon. In a statement issued this morning

:08:42. > :08:47.the organisation said: "Women for Independence said for

:08:48. > :08:51.several weeks now, been examining They say they have identified

:08:52. > :08:59.an apparent discrepancy between their income, via donations

:09:00. > :09:01.and expenditure, which they Because of the potential

:09:02. > :09:05.seriousness of this issue, they've In a statement from her lawyer,

:09:06. > :09:14.Natalie McGarry's says she is aware that suggestions of reported

:09:15. > :09:17.discrepancies in the accounts of Women for Independence have

:09:18. > :09:20.been passed to Police Scotland. He says Ms McGarry says she

:09:21. > :09:24.is is ready to meet with She says she is confident there is

:09:25. > :09:32.no wrongdoing on her part and it would be inappropriate to comment

:09:33. > :09:37.any further while the inquiry is The SNP says it is aware

:09:38. > :09:40.of reported discrepancies in the accounts of Women for Independence,

:09:41. > :09:43.however they have yet to see They also said Natalie McGarry has

:09:44. > :09:54.not had the whip withdrawn. Labour says these are very serious

:09:55. > :09:57.issues and there are serious questions to answer. The

:09:58. > :10:01.Conservatives they if it is the delays that police are investigating

:10:02. > :10:03.this SNP, then they must suspend her immediately.

:10:42. > :10:45.Hidden archives and artifacts, unearthed at a servicemen's hospital

:10:46. > :10:48.near Glasgow are shedding new light on how First World War veterans were

:10:49. > :10:53.The hoard of documents, mementos and pictures was only

:10:54. > :10:55.uncovered at the Erskine Hospital when staff started exploring

:10:56. > :11:11.The old Princess Louise Hospital for limbless sailors and soldiers opened

:11:12. > :11:13.in 1916. It evolved into the Erskine Hospital looking after amputees and

:11:14. > :11:18.inventing and manufacturing prosthetic limbs using the skills

:11:19. > :11:21.honed in the shipyards at the Clyde and the manpower of the

:11:22. > :11:25.ex-servicemen themselves. When the hospital moved into a more modern

:11:26. > :11:29.building, anything which wasn't needed was boxed up and forgotten.

:11:30. > :11:34.For decades, it remained locked away in the room and stashed away under

:11:35. > :11:36.the floorboards until this man kicked the door down. We were

:11:37. > :11:39.looking for memorabilia across the whole estate and we came to this

:11:40. > :11:43.building which was flat in the 1950s. This tour was locked and we

:11:50. > :11:52.extensive award wasn't just in the locked room. This is a tale of

:11:53. > :11:57.treasure found. Under the floorboards were found documents and

:11:58. > :12:01.artefacts that were diaries, medals, all sorts of things. Sorting through

:12:02. > :12:08.will still take time, but it is already starting to shed new light

:12:09. > :12:10.on the origins Erskine Hospital. Experts on the University of them

:12:11. > :12:13.have sifted through the collection to learn what they can about what

:12:14. > :12:19.life was like at the hospital. I'm very interested in Erskine

:12:20. > :12:24.Hospital's ground-breaking work on healing the body and the mind. Some

:12:25. > :12:29.of those papers will shed new light on what the philosophy was from the

:12:30. > :12:31.outset and what so Willie McEwan, the founder, had in mind when he put

:12:32. > :12:34.together this incredible institution. The findings can soon

:12:35. > :12:39.be viewed online and exhibitions are planned for next year. The charity

:12:40. > :12:42.which took over the hospital's work may also auction off some of the

:12:43. > :12:46.found items but the surprise discovery is already giving a rare

:12:47. > :12:51.insight into life here, 100 years ago.

:12:52. > :12:56.A look at other stories from across the country:

:12:57. > :13:01.Police are continuing a search around a Glasgow music venue after

:13:02. > :13:06.reports of gunfire on Saturday night. Loud bangs were heard, just

:13:07. > :13:11.before 10pm. A team investigated the scene and enquiries are continuing.

:13:12. > :13:14.The wave energy company aquamarine power has been forced to stop

:13:15. > :13:18.trading after it failed to find a buyer, despite talks with a number

:13:19. > :13:22.of interested parties. The Edinburgh-based company called in

:13:23. > :13:26.administrators at the end of October. A grant of ?1 million has

:13:27. > :13:30.been awarded to the Ferguson shipyard on the Clyde. From Scottish

:15:16. > :15:20.we can give staff time to get away from the hustle and bustle of the

:15:21. > :15:28.factory and the shop, it gives them a nice space to sit, relax and enjoy

:15:29. > :15:36.a book. So they have set up a reading space and the Scottish book

:15:42. > :15:48.over 60%, just a short time reading, I is great for your social skills

:15:49. > :15:53.and thinking and great fun. People love great stories. Staff here don't

:15:54. > :15:56.need much convincing about the power of reading. Normally if you go for

:15:57. > :16:03.your break you have to make do if of reading. Normally if you go for

:16:04. > :16:04.you can find a seat and there is other people there and there is no

:16:05. > :16:09.place to go and just sit other people there and there is no

:16:10. > :16:13.and read a book. It is nice to escape from it all for even 15

:16:14. > :16:21.minutes. Anything that gives people that sort of first spark is a good

:16:22. > :16:26.thing. There is so much of the time you spend just, I will just put the

:16:48. > :16:51.Amidst the tightest possible security, Andy Murray and Team GB

:17:37. > :17:37.planned. But it will be monitored. The British Davis

:17:38. > :17:43.planned. But it will be monitored. a day later than planned and they

:17:44. > :17:49.have avoided Brussels airport, landing at Flanders. Most fans will

:17:50. > :17:52.arrive at Brussels at the airport or train station and make the journey

:17:53. > :17:58.to the north-west and some will fly train station and make the journey

:17:59. > :18:04.to the south before driving to Ghent. For the moment, preparations

:18:05. > :18:09.continue for the supporters, but the group of student fans have made some

:18:10. > :18:13.changes to their plans. Initially we had planned to travel and stay in

:18:14. > :18:16.Brussels for the night. But we have changed our plans over the weekend

:18:17. > :18:20.as a result of the information that we have taken on board. But we are

:18:21. > :18:26.hopeful that things remain safe as they are at the moment in Ghent and

:18:27. > :18:30.everything goes off as planned. But others have decided against travel.

:18:31. > :18:41.Including the former British No 1 Tim Henman. He said he has cancelled

:18:42. > :18:44.plans to attend. The barmy army are following up dates. We have to trust

:18:45. > :18:49.the authorities know better than anyone as to how safe it is. I would

:18:50. > :18:52.hope that if the event does go ahead, it is because they're sure

:18:53. > :18:55.there is nothing to be concerned about.

:18:56. > :18:57.The Scottish middle distance runner Eilish McColgan says more

:18:58. > :18:59.support should be given to athletes who're coming back from injury.

:19:00. > :19:02.McColgan competed at London 2012 and last year's Commonwealth Games,

:19:03. > :19:05.but has been out injured for the last 10 months.

:19:06. > :19:08.As a result, the daughter of the former world

:19:09. > :19:10.champion Liz McColgan, has lost her British Athletics funding.

:19:11. > :19:30.Ten months on from breaking her ankle and Eilish McColgan is back on

:19:31. > :19:38.the track. But it is not any old track. This is where it started for

:19:39. > :19:42.the 25-year-old in Dundee. A lot of fitness has been lost over the ten

:19:43. > :19:47.months, but I still love the sport and that is what I want to do. I'm

:19:48. > :19:54.excited by it. It is an exciting prospect to be almost starting at

:19:55. > :19:58.the bottom. After numerous attempts to allow the injury to heal

:19:59. > :20:08.naturally, she had surgely five months ago. -- surgery five months

:20:09. > :20:12.ago. It feels good. Eilish McColgan being cheered on... And she is

:20:13. > :20:17.determined to get back to form, even if it means making changes. I want

:20:18. > :20:22.to make the Olympics and if that means not running my desired event I

:20:23. > :20:26.will do it. But it will take a lot of hard work and a long slog to get

:20:27. > :20:31.to that point. But I'm sure, if I make the team, it will be worth it

:20:32. > :20:37.in the end. If not, I have tried everything I could. If she is there,

:20:38. > :20:44.she will have done it without help from UK Athletic lettics. When

:23:47. > :23:52.card. This is the fifth thing you have bought today. It has got a

:23:53. > :23:56.purpose and a lot of people will find it useful. Sometimes I know I'm

:23:57. > :24:01.guilty of buying thing I don't necessarily need. I think it would

:24:02. > :24:06.be something I would find useful. What do shoppers in Dundee think of

:24:07. > :24:14.it? Put it back. Is this really necessary? I don't spend that much

:24:15. > :24:19.any way. Is there anyone you know it might work for. Yes it might. We

:24:20. > :24:25.will name no names. It is a good idea. Well done. I don't think it

:24:26. > :24:28.would work on me, I have already decided not to buy something if I
