throughout the evening on the BBC News Channel. We will be back with | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
the late Police in Perthshire | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
are investigating the death It happened on a farm, | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
which is used as a base for migrants employed | :00:12. | :00:16. | |
as fruit pickers. This is the site behind me were | :00:17. | :00:27. | |
emergency services were called to reports of a fire in the early hours | :00:28. | :00:32. | |
of Sunday morning. It's the mains of a farm, which amongst other things | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
grows fruit. In the emergency services got here this morning they | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
found a caravan on fire. There are in fact dozens of caravans here | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
which are homes to the many migrant workers which pick the farm fruit. | :00:46. | :00:50. | |
Regular visitors to the shop have met some of those visitors. There | :00:51. | :01:00. | |
are quite a few dozen that lives on the farm. Police have been here all | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
day and they say the investigation is well underway. They also say that | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
there was a fatality from this fire. They haven't given any more details | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
yet until the next of kin have been informed. | :01:14. | :01:13. | |
Talks are to be held tomorrow to try to break the stalemate | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
between management and unions involved in a long running dispute | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
Abellio, who run ScotRail, insist it must be the driver. | :01:22. | :01:31. | |
But the RMT union, who are today staging another strike | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
over the issue, fear that not having a guard | :01:37. | :01:38. | |
We want a safety trains, safety certified guard on the trains. We | :01:39. | :01:53. | |
would welcome an extension where there is a driver on the operated | :01:54. | :01:57. | |
trains, we would look for a ticket examiners to be guaranteed on them. | :01:58. | :02:02. | |
There is no guarantee at the moment. It is not good enough. Our proposal | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
to find a way forward is all about having a conductor on the train. We | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
made that proposal at the back end of last week. We are working with | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
both the unions about having a conductor on the train. Very similar | :02:16. | :02:21. | |
duties to what we have currently exactly what the doors to be | :02:22. | :02:24. | |
controlled differently, because that is very important for us to deliver | :02:25. | :02:29. | |
a good really for our customers. I am convinced we will find a way | :02:30. | :02:30. | |
I am convinced we will find a way forward. | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
Police investigating a serious sexual assault in Aberdeen | :02:34. | :02:35. | |
say they want to trace a car seen in the area. | :02:36. | :02:38. | |
Officers have given no details of the victim of the attack, | :02:39. | :02:40. | |
which happened in Torry's Grampian Lane early yesterday. | :02:41. | :02:42. | |
They want to speak to the owner of a light coloured estate car seen | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
Edinburgh's 20mph speed limit has been | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
It's being introduced in the city centre first, | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
before being rolled out across the capital. | :02:54. | :02:54. | |
It's the first city-wide limit of its kind in Scotland. | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
The idea is to improve safety and make streets more people friendly. | :02:58. | :03:14. | |
When complete, around 80% of Edinburgh's is not had a limit of 20 | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
miles per para. Most of the streets included in the scheme will be those | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
in shopping residential areas. Critics fear the new limit will | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
disrupt trade, add the driver frustration and increased traffic | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
times. Edinburgh Council said a network of key roads will be | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
maintained at 30 or 40 mph. Police got the daily will enforce the new | :03:39. | :03:39. | |
There are fears that as many as 80 jobs | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
could go at an Aberdeen fish processing factory. | :03:44. | :03:45. | |
Nolan Seafoods says it's consulting with its workforce on the move, | :03:46. | :03:47. | |
which it says has been brought about by volatility | :03:48. | :03:49. | |
in the marketplace and a drop in supply of salmon. | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
The company, which has a base in Belfast, also blames the high | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
Housing bodies have welcomed the formal end today | :03:56. | :03:58. | |
of the Right to Buy scheme in Scotland. | :03:59. | :04:00. | |
Nearly 500,000 council and housing association homes | :04:01. | :04:02. | |
were sold under the policy, which was introduced in 1980. | :04:03. | :04:04. | |
It allowed tenants in social housing to buy their homes | :04:05. | :04:06. | |
MSPs voted to scrap the measure two-years-ago. | :04:07. | :04:18. | |
The research that we commissioned last year so that we have a backlog | :04:19. | :04:25. | |
at the moment of 60,000 houses. That will give you some idea. We have not | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
been replacing the Housing at the same rate that were having to sell | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
the housing, so, ultimately, it has taken housing out of social renting | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
And we'll have more on that story on Reporting Scotland tomorrow evening. | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
prospects for this evening and the start of the week. | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
Much of the country dry this evening. Bushehr as we have seen | :04:47. | :04:59. | |
today becoming confined to Western and "Alias. They will continue | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
throughout the night. Otherwise, it becomes dry with clear periods. A | :05:04. | :05:09. | |
fairly chilly nights for sheltered and rural areas. For the most part | :05:10. | :05:17. | |
we hold up around nine to 11 degrees. Scattering of showers | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
across the north tomorrow. It will become more widespread as we go | :05:21. | :05:23. | |
through the day, especially towards the north-east which could be heavy | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
in the afternoon. Otherwise it is looking mostly dry with some spells | :05:28. | :05:33. | |
of brightness and sunshine. Feeling pleasantly warm in the sunshine with | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
highs of around 19 Celsius. For Tuesday, dry and bright weather with | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
plenty of sunshine and feeling warm in the sunshine. However, this | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
weather front makes inroads from the Atlantic later in the afternoon. | :05:47. | :05:48. | |
Our next update is just after the 10pm news. | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
Until then, from everyone on the team here in Glasgow, | :05:54. | :05:55. | |
enjoy the rest of your Sunday evening. | :05:56. | :05:59. |
