There are fresh calls to make it easier to let foreign students stay | :00:07. | :00:13. | |
here after they finish their studies. | :00:14. | :00:15. | |
MSPs on Holyrood's devolution committee are calling on Westminster | :00:16. | :00:17. | |
to bring back what are called post-study visas. | :00:18. | :00:19. | |
The UK government says there are no plans to do this, | :00:20. | :00:22. | |
although it says it will listen to concerns. | :00:23. | :00:24. | |
Here's our education correspondent Jamie McIvor. | :00:25. | :00:32. | |
students who come here from outside Europe are automatically entitled to | :00:33. | :00:38. | |
stay in the UK for four months after they completed their course. It used | :00:39. | :00:44. | |
to be for even longer. In 2012 they could stay for up to two years. Now | :00:45. | :00:50. | |
the only way a graduate from south America or the far East can stay | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
long term is if they get a work visa. The UK Government that the old | :00:54. | :01:02. | |
system was being abused. They say it undermined work migration routes and | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
the reputation of the education system. Some universities were | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
unhappy when the system was changed. There were claims that they would be | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
a brain drain of talent. The Scottish Government never agreed | :01:15. | :01:20. | |
with the changes. Today a report by a Holyrood committee highlights | :01:21. | :01:22. | |
claimed that money has been lost to the Scottish economy as a result. In | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
the report committee members recommended that the UK Government's | :01:28. | :01:32. | |
Immigration Minister should come to Holyrood to explain what evidence | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
the UK Government would need to bring about a change in policy. This | :01:36. | :01:41. | |
taps into a bigger debate about immigration policy and whether one | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
system is right for the whole of Britain. The UK Government says it | :01:45. | :01:48. | |
is open to improvements but has no plans to go back to the old system. | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
Rugby, and Scotland have now gone nine games in the Six nations | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
In a thrilling game in Cardiff they went down 27 ? 23, | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
despite leading for large parts of the game and putting | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
in an improved and spirited performance. | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
It's 14 years since Scotland last came out on top in the Welsh | :02:10. | :02:15. | |
capital. It seemed like the same old story when Gareth Davies collected a | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
loose ball and ran 50 metres for a controversial try. But Scottish | :02:21. | :02:27. | |
heads didn't drop, Tommy Seymour pounced on a chip from thin wrestle | :02:28. | :02:33. | |
for the try. Greg Laidlaw kept a cool head to give Scotland a | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
half-time lead. Wales piled on the pressure and were rewarded when | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
Jamie Roberts crashed over the line from close range. George North broke | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
through unopposed to stretch the lead. A late try from Duncan Taylor | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
made for a fairer scoreline, but once again, Scotland finished a six | :02:54. | :02:55. | |
Nations match with missed opportunities. | :02:56. | :02:57. | |
Our rugby reporter Phil Goodlad is in Cardiff for us now. | :02:58. | :02:59. | |
It was a much better performance from Scotland than seven days ago | :03:00. | :03:10. | |
when we lost to England. Tommy Seymour start in dark blue in the | :03:11. | :03:17. | |
first half, familiar failings in the second half like the Welsh overpower | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
Scotland in the end. I spoke to grade Laidlaw as the players came | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
off the pitch, he said we are so close, but we can't keep saying | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
that. That is the problem. Scotland have now lost 96 Nations matches on | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
the bounce. They hope to change that in two weeks when they face Italy in | :03:38. | :03:39. | |
They hope to change that in two weeks when they face Italy in Rome. | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
Football and there were four games in the Premiership. | :03:45. | :03:46. | |
Celtic beat Ross County 2-0, Hamilton v Dundee Utd ended | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
goalless, Kilmarnock won 2-0 away at Motherwell | :03:50. | :03:50. | |
and Hearts Partick Thistle was postponed. | :03:51. | :03:52. | |
Well, it's over to Christopher now for the forecast. | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
Good evening. Some cloudy wet weather today with rain, sleet and | :03:59. | :04:05. | |
snow leading to scenes like this for some. Tonight, many areas are dry, | :04:06. | :04:13. | |
cold and indeed I see. A view which I was pushing into the north coast | :04:14. | :04:19. | |
but elsewhere it is a dry night. Temperatures in towns and cities are | :04:20. | :04:22. | |
sub zero. We have some snow on the ground. A cold and frosty start | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
tomorrow. Once again we have fairly frequent | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
snow showers. We have a warning in force for the East of the country. | :04:33. | :04:39. | |
Those snow showers are hit and miss. The best of the sunshine in the | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
South West but add on that north west breeze and it has a bitter feel | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
at times. Monday, far fewer showers, some decent spells of sunshine with | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
lighter winds but still cold. Prize of three or four Celsius. That's | :04:56. | :04:56. | |
your forecast for now. Our next update is | :04:57. | :04:58. | |
tomorrow evening at 6:50. Until then, from everyone here, | :04:59. | :05:01. | |
enjoy the rest of your | :05:02. | :05:04. |
