:00:11. > :00:17.At Westmister, the UK government is warned not to re-run "project

:00:18. > :00:27.Dwarfing this Norwegian town, the Glen Lyon oil production ship

:00:28. > :00:29.will soon be in the harsh seas west of Shetland.

:00:30. > :00:36.Controversy continues over last night's playoff

:00:37. > :01:03.And teaching the Scots language to children.

:01:04. > :01:10.The First Minister has announced plans to reshape her Cabinet

:01:11. > :01:23.and to place a renewed emphasis on the economy.

:01:24. > :01:32.Nicola Sturgeon said new tax and welfare are powers coming to

:01:33. > :01:35.Holyrood meant that she was creating a position of economy minister.

:01:36. > :01:37.Our political editor Brian Taylor is outside

:01:38. > :01:48.There is a ceremony traditionally held on the eve of the Parliamentary

:01:49. > :01:55.session, taking place behind. Ancient ceremony, service tonight.

:01:56. > :01:58.Earlier hard politics, dealing with the circumstances where Nicholas

:01:59. > :02:07.Sturgeon has set up plans to reshape her Cabinet. John Swinney is number

:02:08. > :02:10.two in Cabinet and will remain so, but there have been other changes

:02:11. > :02:14.and Nicola Sturgeon has said this has not been reflective of past

:02:15. > :02:23.performance, but driven by new powers over welfare and tax. This is

:02:24. > :02:27.not a reflection on how these challenges have been dealt with in

:02:28. > :02:30.the past, but this is about the future, the economic future and also

:02:31. > :02:34.the separate finance role, you recognition that we will be

:02:35. > :02:40.preparing for and then dealing with the introduction of new powers on

:02:41. > :02:47.tax and welfare. We now move to First Minister's Questions. Nicola

:02:48. > :02:50.Sturgeon also backed a longer session of questions to the First

:02:51. > :02:54.Minister, but she insisted that despite forming a minority

:02:55. > :02:57.government the SNP had won the election and were entitled to

:02:58. > :03:01.implement their manifesto. It which averaged by opposition leaders. They

:03:02. > :03:05.have got to recognise, even though they are a large party, there will

:03:06. > :03:08.have to be agreement with others if they want to see their manifesto go

:03:09. > :03:14.through and it would be reckless if they want to drive things through.

:03:15. > :03:16.She is in a minority position and she is entitled to try and take her

:03:17. > :03:20.She is in a minority position and programme forward as the biggest

:03:21. > :03:26.party, but in order to do that she will have to find support on

:03:27. > :03:32.different issues from MSP other parties. Commenting on Labour's four

:03:33. > :03:37.election, the First Minister said it was difficult to see a way back for

:03:38. > :03:44.the party. -- poor election. Labour said that was nonsense. What is

:03:45. > :03:52.exactly taking place behind you? It is an interface service, and there

:03:53. > :04:00.is to be a reading from the humanist Society, reading a poem. Prince

:04:01. > :04:07.Charles, the Duke of Rothesay, he arrived. He has joined the MSP is

:04:08. > :04:14.for the services. There will be a sermon and also intriguingly, Prince

:04:15. > :04:22.Charles might spot this, a reading from the presiding officer, who is

:04:23. > :04:24.standing down. She is doing a reading which deals with tax and

:04:25. > :04:37.taxation. That is the one about Caesar. It is

:04:38. > :04:40.in a break reference by the retiring presiding officer about the new

:04:41. > :04:48.powers that Parliament will have. And more events at Holyrood

:04:49. > :04:54.tomorrow? Yes, big stuff the services on the eve of the

:04:55. > :05:02.Parliamentary session, or the MSP 's, 129 of them, they are sworn in

:05:03. > :05:06.tomorrow -- always -- all the MSP 's. Then they are contested, that is

:05:07. > :05:10.a big job, especially in this 's. Then they are contested, that is

:05:11. > :05:15.parliament, where there is no clear majority. That is the hard politics

:05:16. > :05:20.getting underway, and when the service ends in Saint Giles, Prince

:05:21. > :05:21.Charles will be meeting the party leaders and the

:05:22. > :05:25.new MSP 's and that reception will be held in the old Scots Parliament

:05:26. > :05:32.across the road. SNP MPs have warned the UK

:05:33. > :05:34.Government the EU referendum should not be a re-run of what they say

:05:35. > :05:37.were Project Fear arguments deployed in the vote

:05:38. > :05:39.on Scottish independence. The issue has featured

:05:40. > :05:40.prominently in Commons exchanges, where ministers have

:05:41. > :05:42.accused the nationalists of "obsessing" about a second

:05:43. > :05:44.referendum on independence. Here's our Westminster

:05:45. > :05:59.correspondent, David Porter. The clock is ticking. Six weeks to

:06:00. > :06:03.go until the EU referendum and now the Holyrood elections are out of

:06:04. > :06:08.the way, Scots at Westminster one to make up for lost time and entered

:06:09. > :06:12.the European fray. Questions to the Secretary of State for Scotland.

:06:13. > :06:15.the European fray. Questions to the tailor-made platform, not an

:06:16. > :06:21.opportunity to be missed. With the mission I would like to answer

:06:22. > :06:27.questions one, two, three, six, seven, and eight, together. -- with

:06:28. > :06:33.permission. And some familiar arguments. And the powerful case for

:06:34. > :06:39.remaining in the EU, will the UK Government concentrate on making a

:06:40. > :06:46.positive and inspiring case to stay rather than a rewarming endless

:06:47. > :06:49.scare stories? Maybe you could undertake to stop obsessing about

:06:50. > :06:55.process and the Scottish referendum and concentrate entirely on the

:06:56. > :06:59.positive reasons for Scotland's remaining in the EU. All Scottish

:07:00. > :07:05.MPs agree, but that does not mean an end to political point scoring. Can

:07:06. > :07:08.they gave reassurance to the Scottish people that all MSP 's will

:07:09. > :07:13.be campaigning to stay in the European Union? There are already

:07:14. > :07:16.high levels of support for remaining in the European Union, this could be

:07:17. > :07:20.improved further still if Scottish farmers could be confident they will

:07:21. > :07:29.receive their cap payments when they are supposed to. From some Tory MPs,

:07:30. > :07:32.eight counter view. When we leave the European Union the Scottish

:07:33. > :07:37.people will have sole control over Scottish fishing waters. And on

:07:38. > :07:43.disputable fact that the fishing policy has over the years decimated

:07:44. > :07:46.the Scottish fishing fleet. It will be safer because we don't take the

:07:47. > :07:56.risk with an irreversible separation from which there is no going back.

:07:57. > :08:01.Remember him? Two years ago he was deployed to keep Scotland in the

:08:02. > :08:05.United Kingdom, and now he is once again arguing for the status quo.

:08:06. > :08:06.For many Scots, this campaign and the arguments seem strangely

:08:07. > :08:10.familiar. Still to come on

:08:11. > :08:16.tonight's programme. The jail commended for its good

:08:17. > :08:19.relations between inmates and prison officers but some healthcare staff

:08:20. > :08:22.have safety concerns. A former referee's view

:08:23. > :08:28.of the controversy at last night's Andy Murray's first match

:08:29. > :08:33.since splitting with his coach. It is the biggest oil production

:08:34. > :08:45.ship in the world for harsh waters and it's about to set sail

:08:46. > :08:48.for the seas off Scotland. The Glen Lyon will anchor

:08:49. > :08:51.in the deep waters of the Atlantic, west of Shetland, and it's expected

:08:52. > :08:53.to produce 400 million barrels In a Norwegian fjord,

:08:54. > :09:10.this giant oil producing ship towers On board, final checks before it

:09:11. > :09:14.heads to the unforgiving We come down in the morning

:09:15. > :09:22.because of noise restriction. In the high-tech control room,

:09:23. > :09:24.high-tech coordination work is taking place

:09:25. > :09:35.ahead of the final leg. can have 160 people on board, and so

:09:36. > :09:36.it is more efficient to do the work a comment that is what we are

:09:37. > :09:44.with the ballast tanks, to inspect those.

:09:45. > :09:51.This ship replaces an ageing platform which was decommissioned

:09:52. > :09:55.several years ago. It can hold 800,000 barrels of oil, enough to

:09:56. > :09:59.fill eight Olympic sized swimming pools. This is the clever bit, the

:10:00. > :10:06.turret as is the portion of the installation where the oil comes up

:10:07. > :10:10.from the sea bed. -- houses. It goes to machinery which separates it, but

:10:11. > :10:16.this bit remains fixed to the same spot and the rest of the ship pivots

:10:17. > :10:19.around on this gap. New technology on board means it can be taken

:10:20. > :10:28.straight to the refinery in Rotterdam, bypassing the plant in

:10:29. > :10:30.Shetland. The new man at the helm of BP's operation says they are

:10:31. > :10:36.committed to operating in this part of the world. How important is the

:10:37. > :10:46.area west of Shetland? Or BP, west of Shetland is our future, -- for

:10:47. > :10:54.BB. -- for BP, west of Shetland is our future. The Glen Lyon is

:10:55. > :11:02.expected to begin reducing oil at the end of the year and is expected

:11:03. > :11:04.to continue flowing until 2025. -- producing oil.

:11:05. > :11:08.A jury has been shown a film of a woman crying as she was charged

:11:09. > :11:11.The footage of Rachel Fee is from August 2014,

:11:12. > :11:14.five months after the toddler was found dead at a house

:11:15. > :11:18.She audibly wept as a police officer read the allegations against her.

:11:19. > :11:20.The High Court in Livingston was also shown a video

:11:21. > :11:22.of the moment her co-accused Nyomi Fee was charged,

:11:23. > :11:25.in which she appeared tearful and put her head in her hands.

:11:26. > :11:28.Rachel and Nyomi Fee deny murdering Liam Fee and ill

:11:29. > :11:32.Tommy Sheridan was back in court for a second day

:11:33. > :11:37.to defend his ?200,000 defamation win against the defunct News

:11:38. > :11:42.He asked the three judges to dismiss the case.

:11:43. > :11:45.Mr Sheridan said evidence by News Group Newspapers,

:11:46. > :11:49.owners of the tabloid, was illegally and criminally obtained.

:11:50. > :11:51.Appeal Court judges are considering whether to overturn

:11:52. > :11:55.Firefighters have been battling an "extensive" heath fire

:11:56. > :12:03.Flames swept through about seven square kilometres of land around

:12:04. > :12:05.Ben Blandie last night, and 20 firefighters tackled

:12:06. > :12:13.the blaze in what was described as "sweltering conditions".

:12:14. > :12:17.We've had fires overnight, we have had a watching brief because the

:12:18. > :12:25.fire was going down towards property. We are getting a grip on

:12:26. > :12:27.the fire, it has a two kilometre front and is going out to sea and so

:12:28. > :12:29.there is no danger. Prime Minister David Cameron

:12:30. > :12:31.says he will work with the Scottish Government to find

:12:32. > :12:34.funding for a so-called "city deal" Mr Cameron told MPs the deals -

:12:35. > :12:40.which give cities more cash, power and freedom to

:12:41. > :12:42.help economic growth - He was responding to a question

:12:43. > :12:48.from SNP MP Chris Laws. An inspection of Scotland's newest

:12:49. > :12:52.prison - which was shaken by a riot just months after opening -

:12:53. > :12:56.has found that some healthcare staff But the report into HMP Grampian

:12:57. > :13:02.in Peterhead also commended the good relations between inmates

:13:03. > :13:14.and prison officers, been open for only two years, but

:13:15. > :13:17.Her Majesty 's prison Grampian, the newest of the 15 prisons in

:13:18. > :13:20.had its first disturbance only three months after prisoners first

:13:21. > :13:26.arrived. More than 40 of them barricaded

:13:27. > :13:29.themselves inside a hall and destroyed ?150,000 worth of

:13:30. > :13:34.equipment. The jail has been calm since then, and today's report says

:13:35. > :13:39.relations between stuff and prisoners are good. What we found,

:13:40. > :13:46.there was a good understanding between staff and prisoners. What we

:13:47. > :13:49.were impressed with, the staff work committed to supporting the

:13:50. > :13:54.prisoners in their education and training and in preparation for

:13:55. > :13:55.release. The report also says the accommodation is amongst the best in

:13:56. > :14:03.Scotland's institutions. In any prison, there are bound to be

:14:04. > :14:06.some issues, between the inmates themselves and sometimes between

:14:07. > :14:10.prisoners and staff, but this report is overwhelmingly positive. It has

:14:11. > :14:16.raised some serious concerns, though. The inspection team found

:14:17. > :14:19.some health care staff were worried about their safety, a problem the

:14:20. > :14:23.governors promised to address. I think if you look at the overall

:14:24. > :14:29.report it flies in the face of people feeling safe and there are

:14:30. > :14:34.good staff prisoner relationships, we have got to take that on board.

:14:35. > :14:38.If that is how someone feels, it is my job and that of my staff to work

:14:39. > :14:43.positively, to address some of those concerns. Following the riots, male

:14:44. > :14:47.young offenders were removed, but the governor says they will return

:14:48. > :14:53.in sign. But the report also highlighted limited activities for

:14:54. > :14:57.women -- in time. It is pretty limited for the lasses, there was

:14:58. > :15:03.only one work party for the lasses. What was that? Laundry. Room for

:15:04. > :15:08.improvement, but after a shaky start they say it is a positive report.

:15:15. > :15:16.Pupils at Balfron High School in Stirlingshire, which was partly

:15:17. > :15:18.closed because of structural problems, will be relocated

:15:19. > :15:20.to other secondaries while repairs are carried out.

:15:21. > :15:23.The school was built under a private finance scheme about 15 years ago

:15:24. > :15:25.but not by the firm involved in recent problems

:16:45. > :16:51.The organisers hope it will encourage visitors.

:16:52. > :16:58.This sculpture will bring even more, because it is so ran. It is unique,

:16:59. > :17:02.and it normally resides in the National library in Edinburgh. We

:17:03. > :17:07.have it for one month, so I think, roll on, the visitors. I'm sure they

:17:08. > :17:09.will come in and enjoy it as much as we have having it here.

:21:14. > :21:16.While one former official uses more moderate language but feels Hibs

:21:17. > :21:19.should have had a penalty in the first leg of their

:21:28. > :21:29.The match finished 2-2 with referee Alan Muir

:21:30. > :21:31.at the centre of controversy as John Barnes reports.

:21:32. > :21:45.This was the moment that had Hibsw players and fans fuming at the

:21:46. > :21:49.referee. A handball by the Falkirk captain David McCracken that went

:21:50. > :21:53.unpunished. To get the referee's perspective that like to get a

:21:54. > :21:59.referee's perspective, I spoke to Charlie Richmond. I think it is a

:22:00. > :22:02.penalty kick. I think the Falkirk player has deliberately moved his

:22:03. > :22:06.hand towards the ball and changed the direction of the ball, allowing

:22:07. > :22:12.him to stand up and make a better clearance. As we know, it is all

:22:13. > :22:16.about opinions. Alan has a clear line of sight, and in his opinion,

:22:17. > :22:19.he doesn't think that the hand has deliberately made contact with the

:22:20. > :22:33.he doesn't think that the hand has ball. The scoreline at the time was

:22:34. > :22:37.2-1 to Hibs -- to Hibs. He turned it beyond the keeper. Liam Henderson

:22:38. > :22:43.got on the end of a knock-down. Then the Easter Road side went in front

:22:44. > :22:50.when Darren McGregor rose highest to head in Henderson's kick. The tie

:22:51. > :22:53.went level going into Friday's second leg. The winners will face

:22:54. > :22:55.Kilmarnock in the play-off final. The Aberdeen assistant manager
