:00:08. > :00:10.Tonight on Reporting Scotland: Warnings cuts are taking police

:00:11. > :00:21.officers off the beat and into the back office

:00:22. > :00:23.Ensuring the best care for people with terminal illnesses -

:00:24. > :00:27.Restaurants, pubs and the emergency services prepare for the biggest

:00:28. > :00:38.Black Friday is the best day of the year because people have a good

:00:39. > :00:43.spirit, a regret mood. from dolphins to hear what's

:00:44. > :00:46.inside underwater objects. But it is one of the warmest

:00:47. > :01:06.Decembers in over 100 years. Axing civilian staff

:01:07. > :01:10.at Police Scotland to save money and switching police officers

:01:11. > :01:12.from operational to back room roles That's the view of the Inspector of

:01:13. > :01:17.Constabulary in his annual report. The force is still facing

:01:18. > :01:20.an overspend of ?25 million this year, but spending watchdogs have

:01:21. > :01:42.warned that the deficit could more The failure by police to respond for

:01:43. > :01:45.three days to a road accident was just one of a series of difficulties

:01:46. > :01:53.faced by the National Force in recent months. Two people died as a

:01:54. > :01:57.result of the accident. Changes to call handling, including the loss of

:01:58. > :02:02.civilian posts, following the creation of Police Scotland, have

:02:03. > :02:04.been blamed for the error. The inspector of Constabulary, in his

:02:05. > :02:09.annual report, says one effect of the cuts has been police officers

:02:10. > :02:14.taken off operational roles to fulfil back office duties. The

:02:15. > :02:18.report is highlighting the risks if that moves on further, there is a

:02:19. > :02:24.risk that experienced, qualified police staff who add value to

:02:25. > :02:27.policing will be lost. The report is saying for Police Scotland to look

:02:28. > :02:32.ahead with the police authority, what kind of policing does it need

:02:33. > :02:36.and how best to deliver that. Unions say they warned that making civilian

:02:37. > :02:43.workers the target financial savings would not offer best value for money

:02:44. > :02:47.and that has correct. The likelihood is that police officers are less

:02:48. > :02:52.skilled, less trained, they move onto other within. You have a police

:02:53. > :02:59.workforce who are loyal and they stay with the organisation for the

:03:00. > :03:03.length of service. New recruits to the police service, but the spending

:03:04. > :03:09.watchdog says the financial outlook for the force is far from clear and

:03:10. > :03:14.there could be a funding gap of ?85 million in four years. But the

:03:15. > :03:18.Scottish Government said this week's budget, giving extra cash to help

:03:19. > :03:20.reorganisation, would put Police Scotland on a sustainable footing.

:03:21. > :03:23.The Scottish government has announced a plan to give anyone

:03:24. > :03:25.with a terminal illness access to specialist care.

:03:26. > :03:27.The vision's been outlined as part of a ?3.5 million strategy

:03:28. > :03:45.Saint Margaret of Scotland Hospice in Clydebank provides care with

:03:46. > :03:52.those with serious illnesses and support for those who are terminally

:03:53. > :03:57.ill, known as palliative care. Jeff's brother Mike is being cared

:03:58. > :04:02.for here, and he says it is a vital service. It is the staff and the

:04:03. > :04:06.facilities and the care. It is absolutely marvellous. If it was a

:04:07. > :04:13.hotel, you would think it was luxury. It is a blend of single

:04:14. > :04:17.rooms and multiple occupancy. But the problem is that demand for

:04:18. > :04:22.palliative care is outstripping supply. There are more people in

:04:23. > :04:27.need of palliative care than those who receive it. The figure was given

:04:28. > :04:32.of around 10,000 people who deserve palliative care who are not

:04:33. > :04:35.currently receiving that. There is huge demand for the kind of

:04:36. > :04:40.specialist care services offered by hospices like this, but getting

:04:41. > :04:43.access to these services across Scotland isn't always easy. Now the

:04:44. > :04:50.Scottish Government has come up with a plan to try and address that.

:04:51. > :04:54.Today, the Scottish Government announced the aim to give everyone

:04:55. > :04:58.in Scotland who needs it access to palliative care by 2021. It said

:04:59. > :05:02.patients would be given the opportunity to make clear their

:05:03. > :05:08.dying wishes at an early stage. And there will be extra training for NHS

:05:09. > :05:11.and social care departments. Can this be achieved? Everyone will have

:05:12. > :05:15.to play a part and five years is not a long time, but it is an ambitious

:05:16. > :05:19.statement and everybody is willing to put in time and effort to make it

:05:20. > :05:23.work. It is so important that people do get the palliative care they

:05:24. > :05:28.need. The Scottish Government wants to start seeing its plans come to

:05:29. > :05:31.fruition by April next year. It is an ambitious strategy but one which

:05:32. > :05:35.ministers say they are determined to make happen.

:05:36. > :05:37.The emergency services are gearing up for one of their busiest nights

:05:38. > :05:40.of the year in what's become known as Black Friday.

:05:41. > :05:43.Festive revellers are heading out to parties in towns and cities

:05:44. > :05:45.across Scotland with just a week to go before Christmas.

:05:46. > :06:06.Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way. A piano playing Alf and

:06:07. > :06:08.a rousing chorus. In Glasgow city centre this afternoon they were

:06:09. > :06:14.certainly feeling a bit like Christmas. All across the city,

:06:15. > :06:21.office parties were underway, a very welcome sight for the licensed

:06:22. > :06:25.trade. This is very busy day. It equates to the sunniest day in

:06:26. > :06:28.Glasgow that we get. You either have sunshine or Christmas, and those are

:06:29. > :06:35.the times of year when Glasgow makes money. Black Friday is actually the

:06:36. > :06:40.best day of the year. It makes you feel part of something you would not

:06:41. > :06:46.otherwise get on a different day. It is good to catch up, have fun and

:06:47. > :06:49.enjoy the company. I think the majority of them have made

:06:50. > :06:56.arrangements. I have, my mum is coming to get me. My fiance is

:06:57. > :07:02.coming to pick me up so I don't need a taxi. In Dunfermline, a safe haven

:07:03. > :07:06.has been set for those who have over consumed, got or hurt themselves, an

:07:07. > :07:12.idea adopted in many towns and cities and it seems to be working.

:07:13. > :07:15.We see a reduction in calls to emergency services, who are already

:07:16. > :07:22.facing high demand at this time of year. We see a reduction of

:07:23. > :07:25.admissions to Accident Emergency. Sometimes we forget that it can

:07:26. > :07:29.apply to us, things can happen to us. So we tried to remind people to

:07:30. > :07:35.look after themselves and their friends. Inevitably, alcohol can

:07:36. > :07:40.fuel violence, and while the increased numbers of police on the

:07:41. > :07:44.streets tonight are briefed to lend a helping hand, they will also look

:07:45. > :07:50.out for those who can spoil a good night out for others. If people are

:07:51. > :07:57.over the top, let's get early intervention, get them warned and

:07:58. > :08:02.home. The message from the police is, a little bit of preplanning can

:08:03. > :08:08.ensure that the day finishes as well as it began.

:08:09. > :08:10.You're watching Reporting Scotland from the BBC.

:08:11. > :08:11.Still to come on tonight's programme:

:08:12. > :08:13.The video light show projection where people

:08:14. > :08:17.tell their life stories but they're not allowed to speak.

:08:18. > :08:21.The Premeirship's top scorer signs a new long-term deal.

:08:22. > :08:24.I'll also tell you about the new manager of St Mirren.

:08:25. > :08:35.And how a Celtic great is being honoured.

:08:36. > :08:37.The last remaining Church of Scotland school in the world

:08:38. > :08:41.What makes it even more unusual is that it teaches Christian,

:08:42. > :08:44.Muslim and Jewish children together in an attempt to create

:08:45. > :08:47.an environment of tolerance, despite the tensions.

:08:48. > :08:50.Fiona Walker has been to Israel to find out why the Church

:08:51. > :09:00.of Scotland is running a school in the Holy Land.

:09:01. > :09:08.Amongst the religious conflict in the Middle East, something of a

:09:09. > :09:14.surprise. It is nativity rehearsal time at Tabeetha School in Jaffa.

:09:15. > :09:19.The Nativity is a Christian tradition but about a Jewish family.

:09:20. > :09:31.And Joseph is being played by a pupil who is muscle. -- Muslim. In

:09:32. > :09:39.the grade six Hebrew class, it is the turn of a Muslim boy to light

:09:40. > :09:42.the candle in the Jewish festival. Learning about different faiths

:09:43. > :09:49.helps children understand each other. We are all friends here. I am

:09:50. > :09:59.Christian, he is Muslim, she is Jewish. We connect as friends. The

:10:00. > :10:03.state of Israel can be including all sorts of people. And it can be

:10:04. > :10:10.beautiful, as it is in this class, in this school. That sums up what we

:10:11. > :10:15.are told about the ethos of the school. Whereas pupils in Israeli

:10:16. > :10:17.state schools are mostly taught separately, here, the Church of

:10:18. > :10:24.Scotland is bringing people together. This is a great four

:10:25. > :10:29.class, but it is not just a classroom. We are underground, and

:10:30. > :10:33.this is a bomb shelter. The children have to be able to get in here

:10:34. > :10:37.within 90 seconds of a siren going off, which gives you the context in

:10:38. > :10:41.which the pupils are living. In fact, this school was set up by a

:10:42. > :10:45.Scottish woman before the Middle East problems we know of today. What

:10:46. > :10:51.on earth is the Church of Scotland doing running a school in Israel?

:10:52. > :10:54.With Tabeetha School in particular, because it was given to us in a

:10:55. > :10:59.will, we felt an obligation to continue to look after that. Also,

:11:00. > :11:02.because we are in the holy land, there is a sense of needing to keep

:11:03. > :11:07.a presence and we felt it was important as a church at the time

:11:08. > :11:15.when we were giving other properties away, to keep hold of Tabeetha. Too

:11:16. > :11:21.young to fully understand the politics, these children sing jingle

:11:22. > :11:24.Bells in Arabic before home time. Home, to have their life in a

:11:25. > :11:40.divided land they call the holy land.

:11:41. > :11:45.West Dunbartonshire schools could be hit by a strike in the New Year.

:11:46. > :11:49.Members have voted for industrial action in a dispute over a

:11:50. > :11:53.management shake-up in secondary schools. BBC Scotland understands a

:11:54. > :11:58.one-day strike followed by a work-to-rule will be considered.

:11:59. > :12:02.Further consultations are to be held on three of the largest of the

:12:03. > :12:09.Scottish Government's planned marine protection areas, covering the small

:12:10. > :12:13.Isles, Western Ross, forming part of a proposed network of 30 protected

:12:14. > :12:17.areas. Some fishermen and communities have concerns about

:12:18. > :12:24.their effect on fishing. Orkney has retained its title as the

:12:25. > :12:26.best place to live in Scotland. The 2015 Bank of Scotland

:12:27. > :12:30.quality-of-life survey placed Shetland second and the Western

:12:31. > :12:34.Isles third. Orkney secured the top spot for the third year running,

:12:35. > :12:38.scoring highly in categories of health, employment, low crime rates

:12:39. > :12:42.and good weather. Air France has announced a new daily

:12:43. > :12:53.air service between Glasgow and Paris. The morning flights will

:12:54. > :12:57.begin at the end of next March. Apia on Marl should be taken into

:12:58. > :13:01.community ownership according to the Council, who want a buyout for the

:13:02. > :13:07.community. They claim would benefit the island if it was run locally. We

:13:08. > :13:12.are asking the council to employ a consultant to come and do a full

:13:13. > :13:13.review from one end to the other, to see how the limited space could be

:13:14. > :13:20.properly utilised. Now to the technological

:13:21. > :13:22.breakthrough that's been millions Researchers at Heriot-Watt

:13:23. > :13:25.university have developed a new type of sonar detector

:13:26. > :13:42.by copying dolphins. They look great, but it is the sound

:13:43. > :13:47.that bottlenose dolphins make that has excited scientists. They are

:13:48. > :13:50.fantastic. They have sonar that has evolved over millions of years and

:13:51. > :13:56.it is completely unsurpassed. They can tell the difference between

:13:57. > :14:03.containers that hold fresh water, salt water, syrup and oil from ten

:14:04. > :14:09.metres, which we thought we wanted to be able to do. This is the

:14:10. > :14:17.result. This is our sonar, the thing that allows us to do things that

:14:18. > :14:20.dolphins do. The pack will be carried by one of Heriot-Watt's

:14:21. > :14:26.underwater robots, which looks like a torpedo that will sound like a

:14:27. > :14:30.dolphin. We looked at the signals they use and we did an analysis of

:14:31. > :14:35.them and figured out some things that other people had not seen about

:14:36. > :14:39.those signals, and used those to create artificial signals we would

:14:40. > :14:44.want to use. Then we got the difficult bit, which was actually

:14:45. > :14:50.getting a that would produce those and we could process them. Now, a

:14:51. > :14:55.university spin out company sees opportunities worldwide, starting

:14:56. > :14:58.with the North Sea. From inspection of the sea bed, making sure you put

:14:59. > :15:04.infrastructure in the right place, safely and securely. Post

:15:05. > :15:09.installation, you need to monitor structures, and that is an

:15:10. > :15:11.increasing issue for the oil and gas industry, decommissioning, when

:15:12. > :15:15.something gets to the end of its useful life, how do you dismantle it

:15:16. > :15:21.and make sure anything that is left is safe and not detrimental to the

:15:22. > :15:25.environment. The development is supported by a grant from the

:15:26. > :15:31.Scottish innovation Centre for sensor and imaging systems. We have

:15:32. > :15:34.identified 90 research groups across institutions in that specialise in

:15:35. > :15:39.sensor technology in some way or form, and that is a tremendous

:15:40. > :15:43.resource to draw on. It could mean better and cheaper ways of finding

:15:44. > :15:48.everything from undersea cables to miss placed minds.

:15:49. > :15:50.Now here's a piece of art with a difference.

:15:51. > :15:53.It begins with the National Theatre of Scotland putting on a video light

:15:54. > :15:55.show and projecting it on to windows around Aberdeen.

:15:56. > :15:57.The videos feature people describing their lives,

:15:58. > :16:07.John McManus is at Aberdeen's Maritime Museum to tell us more.

:16:08. > :16:11.The season where we surround ourselves with as much light

:16:12. > :16:19.This is one light show with a difference.

:16:20. > :16:24.Across Aberdeen this weekend, 60 windows in 11 city locations

:16:25. > :16:29.all blazed into light with portraits of normal people.

:16:30. > :16:32.They will describe their lives but without using words.

:16:33. > :16:36.It was a challenge for the participants.

:16:37. > :16:39.It was really quite difficult to try and portray my

:16:40. > :16:44.I chose what meant a lot to me, family, friends and relationships.

:16:45. > :16:56.I did a lot of holding hands for togetherness.

:16:57. > :17:01.Having lived away, I returned to Aberdeen and the first thing that

:17:02. > :17:03.came to mind was the football club. I was wearing a red tie, side to get

:17:04. > :17:06.off and waved it above my head. The man behind the idea said most

:17:07. > :17:09.people with a smartphone do This is almost like the ultimate

:17:10. > :17:24.selfie in a way. I enjoy looking at people. It is not

:17:25. > :17:29.long we get a chance to gaze at people and this allows that to

:17:30. > :17:32.happen. More than 100 people took part and it is part of a celebration

:17:33. > :17:41.that will include other live performances until March. If that is

:17:42. > :17:43.not enough for you, there are dance performances tomorrow afternoon, all

:17:44. > :17:47.building up to a theatrical performance in March when members of

:17:48. > :17:51.the public will join professional actors to tell the stories of

:17:52. > :17:55.Aberdeen. But this weekend, if you are out and about, loaded down with

:17:56. > :17:57.Christmas shopping, take a moment to look up and see these video

:17:58. > :18:03.portraits. Let's get all the weekend sport now,

:18:04. > :18:10.from David. This season's leading Premiership

:18:11. > :18:13.goal scorer has signed a new long Leigh Griffiths agreeing to stay

:18:14. > :18:17.at Celtic till 2021. The lengthy

:18:18. > :18:19.new deal comes as a reward for a striker who says

:18:20. > :18:22.he has turned his life around in the past year,

:18:23. > :18:37.as Jonathan Sutherland reports. He has gone from Burley getting a

:18:38. > :18:39.game to Celtic goal-scoring hero. Leigh Griffiths has pledged his

:18:40. > :18:43.future to Celtic until 2021. His aim is to bring Champions League

:18:44. > :18:46.football to Celtic Park. I want to win a lot of trophies but most

:18:47. > :18:52.importantly I want to play the Champions League. Having not played

:18:53. > :19:00.there before, that is what the boys weren't. I have played there before

:19:01. > :19:06.on Champions League nights. Of the old issues have built his career. In

:19:07. > :19:09.September he was fined and handed a two match ban after admitting

:19:10. > :19:15.singing an offensive song about a former Hearts player. Initially he

:19:16. > :19:22.struggled to get a place in the side. After tweaking his game and

:19:23. > :19:28.his lifestyle he has made himself Celtic's number one striker, scoring

:19:29. > :19:33.35 goals in 50 games. Beforehand, doing daft stuff of the field and I

:19:34. > :19:39.have clients in down which I had to because I was almost that the exit

:19:40. > :19:43.door. After I sat down with the manager and spoke to him about how

:19:44. > :19:47.he wanted me to change it hit home how big a club this is and how much

:19:48. > :19:55.I did not want to leave. This was his first goal of 2015 and his last

:19:56. > :19:58.against Inverness. He will miss out tomorrow due to a calf injury but

:19:59. > :20:02.over the next five years expect plenty more of those.

:20:03. > :20:05.Now, a Scotland favourite from not so long ago is back

:20:06. > :20:07.in the Premiership at least until the end of next month.

:20:08. > :20:11.James McFadden signing for Motherwell for the third time.

:20:12. > :20:13.He scored 42 goals for them in his previous two stints

:20:14. > :20:18.The 32-year-old was released by St Johnstone at the end of last

:20:19. > :20:21.season and spent some time in America.

:20:22. > :20:24.He's signed a contract until the end of January.

:20:25. > :20:33.He's Alex Rae, who was in charge of Dundee from 2006 to 2008.

:20:34. > :20:36.Rae has agreed an 18 month contract with the Buddies who,

:20:37. > :20:38.after being relegated from the Premiership last season,

:20:39. > :20:40.are third bottom of the Championship.

:20:41. > :20:42.His first match in charge is against bottom club

:20:43. > :20:50.Glasgow Warriors head coach Gregor Townsend says his side

:20:51. > :20:54.will most likely have to win three of their remaining four pool matches

:20:55. > :20:57.to qualify for the quarter finals of the European Champions Cup.

:20:58. > :21:02.Warriors, who are third in pool three with one win in two games,

:21:03. > :21:04.left Scotland today for tomorrow's match against Scarlets in Wales.

:21:05. > :21:08.Just six days after thrashing Scarlets 43-6 in Glasgow.

:21:09. > :21:18.Warriors Scarlets will be a lot stronger this week with a few

:21:19. > :21:26.players coming back in. They will be hurting. You do not enjoy getting

:21:27. > :21:32.beat by 40 points. We have a lot of tough games down now. Two years ago

:21:33. > :21:33.we got a bit of a hammering at the end of the season. That is going to

:21:34. > :21:36.be tough. Finally from me, one of the greats

:21:37. > :21:39.of Scottish football will be Billy McNeill and his family

:21:40. > :21:43.will there to see a statue in his honour unveiled before

:21:44. > :21:45.tomorrow's match against Motherwell. McNeill captained the Lisbon Lions

:21:46. > :21:48.to their famous European Cup final He also won nine league titles

:21:49. > :22:05.before two spells as manager. He led by example on the field and

:22:06. > :22:10.spoke the language of the dressing room, the pitch, and the language

:22:11. > :22:16.that made him look like an Ambassador of the field where he was

:22:17. > :22:20.able to represent the club in an eloquent and clean cut way. We all

:22:21. > :22:23.respected him, particularly the manager Jock Stein. One day there

:22:24. > :22:29.will be a statue of you, Sally. With just a week to go,
