:02:59. > :03:06.Congratulations all round, her was delighted. But then it got
:03:07. > :03:11.serious. Ruth Davidson didn't stand because her election pitch was about
:03:12. > :03:15.opposition. She accused the SNP of relying too much on executive power
:03:16. > :03:21.when they had a majority. Is this Parliament, which holds the real

:04:01. > :04:07.we need to hunt for agreement with others. To the First Minister. There
:04:08. > :04:10.is, quite simply, no greater privilege than to be elected to

:04:15. > :04:25.gave me a clear mandate to govern, but also an instruction to do so
:04:26. > :04:27.inclusively. But then she indicated her approach, listing a series of
:04:28. > :04:31.issues where she disagrees with the
:04:32. > :04:36.Conservatives in describing her government as left of centre social

:05:04. > :05:09.We will get the details tomorrow morning, after she

:05:38. > :05:43.Nicola Sturgeon. She wants to maintain gender balance across her
:05:44. > :05:49.ministerial team. She declared that when she took over and I am sure she
:05:50. > :05:52.will wish to do so again. There is the balance inside Parliament to be
:05:53. > :05:53.maintained. To do that, she will have to work with all of the
:05:54. > :06:00.parties. She said she wants a left of centre democratic
:06:01. > :06:01.approach. But on the question of tax, will she support the
:06:02. > :06:04.Conservatives? One of the women accused

:06:10. > :06:13.she and her partner Rachel were concerned about changes
:06:14. > :06:29.in Liam's behaviour and believed Nyomi Fee on the right was giving
:06:30. > :06:33.evidence in her defence. She said she had an affair with Rachel the in
:06:34. > :06:38.2010 and when Rachel became pregnant, they made plans to move to
:06:39. > :06:45.Scotland. Nyomi Fee said when the boy's father found out about the
:06:46. > :06:48.affair, they've became frightened of Scotland. They spent five weeks at
:06:49. > :06:49.the Travelodge in Glenrothes before moving
:06:50. > :06:54.to a house nearby. The couple were married in June the following year.
:06:55. > :07:02.Nyomi Fee said in the summer of 2012, Liam went to a childminder.
:07:03. > :07:06.She said his behaviour was fine. But after that she said his behaviour
:07:07. > :07:11.change, didn't want to interact and he would hinge himself and pull his
:07:12. > :07:13.hair. She said he began to freak out and he wasn't the same little boy.
:07:14. > :07:22.They googled the symptoms and feared he had autism. They discuss this
:07:23. > :07:26.with the health visitor and doctor, anybody who might be able to help
:07:27. > :07:31.them. She said it was upsetting to see Liam self-harming and not
:07:32. > :07:33.knowing what it was. She told the court that around the time she
:07:34. > :07:42.noticed changes in his behaviour they had concerns
:07:43. > :07:45.about a child they looked after because he was showing sexualised
:07:46. > :07:48.behaviour towards women. She said she would give him lines and
:07:49. > :07:51.smacking, but there was never any requirement to punish ileum.

:08:05. > :08:06.The amount of whisky exported from Scotland fell last year
:08:07. > :08:09.and so did the value of overseas sales.
:08:10. > :08:10.The industry has blamed the decline on the instability
:08:11. > :08:13.of worldwide markets but says there are some positive signs.

:08:42. > :08:46.flowing out. The product of barley and water. It will be years before
:08:47. > :08:50.this is bottled and sold around the world. Launching a new whiskey is
:08:51. > :08:52.risky. What is happening in 12 years' time? You have to go on
:08:53. > :08:56.faith. The Scotch whiskey industry is a
:08:57. > :08:58.long-term industry. You cannot worry about next
:08:59. > :09:06.week's numbers. You cannot live like that, you have do look long term and
:09:07. > :09:09.have faith in the product. Today saw the latest health check on the state
:09:10. > :09:14.of the industry. Exports were down last year but there are signs of
:09:15. > :09:17.recovery, especially amongst the high-value, single malts. The total
:09:18. > :09:21.value of Scotch whiskey exports in 2015 was close to four ileum pounds.
:09:22. > :09:29.A number of bottles exported, more than a billion. Down by nearly 3%

:09:45. > :09:48.are dependent on what happens in the
:09:49. > :09:52.global economy. Obviously, the last couple of years have not been
:09:53. > :09:53.brilliant. Some of the big markets have declined,
:09:54. > :09:58.some have done well. We are, to some extent, at the mercy of those
:09:59. > :09:59.conditions. this new distillery is already in
:10:00. > :10:04.these casks. The malts won't go on sale until the
