Green? It's believed half of mental health | :01:10. | :01:11. | |
problems begin before the age of 15, however some young people | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
are waiting more than a year to access a mental health service | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
specifically designed to help them. Unlike the rest of the UK - | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
Scotland has no national strategy for school-based counselling | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
services. Charities and youth organisations | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
say there's a postcode lottery of provision and that the service, | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
called CAMHS - has consistently failed to meet | :01:35. | :01:36. | |
its waiting time targets. Our health correspondent | :01:37. | :01:39. | |
Lisa Summers reports. I have two parents who are both drug | :01:40. | :01:51. | |
addicts. Courtney says her mental health problems started at the age | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
of 12. Everything seemed to get worse. I was struggling with panic | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
attacks. Over coffee with fellow members of the Scottish youth | :02:01. | :02:02. | |
Parliament she talks about losing members of the Scottish youth | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
both parents to drug addiction and the struggle to get help. I accessed | :02:06. | :02:11. | |
CAMHS once but I did not go back. You are not guaranteed to see the | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
same person twice. You have to tell your story over and over again. | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
Every emotion you feel, you have to go through it again. I had seen | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
things that ten years old that no child should ever see in their life. | :02:28. | :02:33. | |
I was brought up to bottle up my issues. I suffered with an eating | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
disorder for some time and that battle has lasted and it is | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
something I live with still today. Erin McAuley got support at school | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
but felt stranded when she got to university. It was spiralling out of | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
control. I went for help. It was five months before got a letter and | :02:54. | :02:56. | |
I never went to my appointment because by that point I had finished | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
my exams and I was moving to Glasgow. The Scottish Government's | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
on targets for counselling services have been missed ever since they | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
were introduced. 22% of those referred to CAMHS were not seen | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
within 18 weeks and 708 children waited over a year to see a | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
counsellor. CAMHS was oversubscribed. It is difficult to | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
get an appointment. The threshold is pretty high. You have to be quite | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
distressed and quite ill to get to CAMHS at the moment. This is the | :03:29. | :03:35. | |
sort of early intervention that can make a difference. Cowdenbeath | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
primary school funded their mental health kit bags. Today I'm feeling | :03:39. | :03:44. | |
orange because I am feeling a bit angry but I am mostly feeling | :03:45. | :03:50. | |
really, really happy. Local authorities say budget pressures | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
have led to a lack of psychologists and support staff. The government | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
says it is investing in services to meet targets that says it is up to | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
councils to do more in schools. Guess, it is a postcode lottery. | :04:04. | :04:09. | |
There are some which have great mental health and well-being | :04:10. | :04:11. | |
strategy is already in place in their local authority areas. We are | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
not starting from a 0.4. There are good practices in many local | :04:17. | :04:18. | |
authority areas, we just need to good practices in many local | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
make sure that is uniform throughout the country. Back at the cafe, these | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
young people say it helps them to talk. Now they say it will -- they | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
hope it will help others too. Starts now than in generations to come you | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
will not have these problems. Young boys need to feel they can talk | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
about their problems. The more you can speak about it and the more I | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
hear other people's stories, it begins to give me hope for the | :04:45. | :04:46. | |
future. A 13-year-old boy who was found | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
in Edinburgh after going missing over the weekend has | :04:51. | :04:52. | |
died in hospital. Police say Blake Ross, | :04:53. | :04:54. | |
who's believed to have had diabetes, fell ill on a bus in the city centre | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
on Monday evening. An investigation into police | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
actions has now begun. Police now say that 13-year-old | :05:01. | :05:11. | |
Blake Ross, who was living in care and had gone missing and had been | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
missing since Saturday afternoon, was found ill on a bus here in | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
Leopold place in London Road in the middle of Edinburgh on Monday | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
afternoon at four o'clock. The driver of the bus called the police | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
when he discovered Blake was ill and also radioed into his own garage | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
control room for help. Blake was taken to hospital in Edinburgh but | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
unfortunately, he died on Monday evening at nine o'clock. Police say | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
the cause of death is unexplained but we understand it is linked to | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
Blake's underlying health condition for which he was taking medication. | :05:47. | :05:53. | |
The number four bus which Blake was discovered on travels across | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
Edinburgh from east to west, on a route which starts not far from | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
where Blake was seen on Saturday afternoon at Howden Hall at around | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
3:30pm. Police would like anybody who knows anything about Blake's | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
movements on Saturday afternoon, to get in touch as they proceed with | :06:10. | :06:11. | |
this investigation. A charity which supports survivors | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
of sex abuse is asking the Scottish FA to think again about the man | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
they have appointed to chair their review | :06:18. | :06:20. | |
of child abuse in football. The SFA announced earlier this month | :06:21. | :06:22. | |
that Martin Henry would take on that role but the charity says concerns | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
have been raised about his SFA match official Hugh Stevenson | :06:26. | :06:38. | |
and Partick Thistle physio John Hart. Both men now dead but the | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
anger and concern that allegations they had abused young footballers | :06:43. | :06:44. | |
were not dealt with properly, is still very much present. The | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
Scottish Government currently running their own enquiry into abuse | :06:50. | :06:55. | |
of children in care settings, urged the SFA to consider setting up a | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
specific enquiry about abuse in football as the FA in England has | :06:59. | :07:04. | |
done. To be more proactive in how we deal with matters... The SFA agreed | :07:05. | :07:11. | |
and announced Martin Henry is the man who will chair it. Mr Henry, | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
they explained, has over 40 years clinical and friends had experience | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
in the field of child and public protection and most recently was | :07:21. | :07:24. | |
national manager of the National programme for the prevention of | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
child sexual abuse. Mr Henry's I Greg Feek states: Martin's | :07:28. | :07:34. | |
professional expertise is in the investigation and assessment of | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
child sexual abuse and are working with men who have problematic sexual | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
behaviours, including those who offend online. | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
It is the amount of work which Mr Henry has done with offenders which | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
is concerning some abuse survivors. We could look at it and say yes, he | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
has the perfect background, he knows all about perpetrators and the | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
prevention agenda. It is how it feels to survivors which is the main | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
prevention agenda. It is how it issue. How does it feel to the | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
survivors who have raised concerns? They feel it is summer day who does | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
not understand their needs, they will only understand the | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
perpetrator's needs. They don't feel he is the right person to look into | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
what that means for survivors. Six years ago in Edinburgh, the men at | :08:20. | :08:23. | |
the centre of the largest child abuse network uncovered in Scotland | :08:24. | :08:26. | |
were sentenced to lengthy prison terms. One of them, James Rennie was | :08:27. | :08:33. | |
jailed for 16 years, sexually -- for sexually abusing her baby and | :08:34. | :08:39. | |
sharing pictures. He was the chief executive of LGBT youth and Martin | :08:40. | :08:45. | |
Henry was the convener of the board. Martin Henry was not involved in | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
anyway and youngsters who used the service were not among James | :08:50. | :08:57. | |
Rennie's victims. Some survivors believe having not spotted a | :08:58. | :09:02. | |
paedophile working in the same organisation, Mr Henry's position is | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
weakened as chair of a wide-ranging enquiry. Some may see it as unfair | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
that he could not be in that role, he did not pick up on something | :09:13. | :09:15. | |
which many of us would not have picked up on, but again it is the | :09:16. | :09:19. | |
whole nature of people having trust in this enquiry. It is how survivors | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
feel which is the most important thing. The most important thing is | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
for survivors to fully engage in the enquiry process and trust in it. We | :09:29. | :09:33. | |
have tried to reach Martin Henry but he is out of the country at the | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
moment. The Scottish FA said they consulted a wide group of | :09:40. | :09:42. | |
stakeholders, including survivors' groups. The chair has amassed | :09:43. | :09:48. | |
unrivalled experience in many facets of child protection in a 40 year | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
career, including his role as vice convener to the Scottish Parliament | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
cross party group on survivors of sexual abuse. | :09:59. | :10:00. | |
Janine Rennie and an abuse of either met with the SFA yesterday and she | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
said that was a constructive meeting but she waits to see how they | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
respond to the concerns they raised. This highlights the difficulty in | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
appointing the chair to such sensitive enquiries, which will be | :10:15. | :10:17. | |
acceptable to all of those who wish to take part, especially those who | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
have been abused. For them, the issue of trust is central. | :10:22. | :10:26. | |
Urgent safety checks should be carried out on hundreds of public | :10:27. | :10:28. | |
buildings constructed after the year 2000. | :10:29. | :10:30. | |
That's according to the Royal Incorporation | :10:31. | :10:32. | |
of Architects in Scotland, which says that a lack of scrutiny | :10:33. | :10:34. | |
It follows the publication of a report which raised concerns | :10:35. | :10:39. | |
about building standards at 17 schools in Edinburgh. | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
Well, our correspondent Andrew Kerr is in the centre of Glasgow tonight. | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
Andrew, a stark warning from the architects' body? | :10:49. | :10:56. | |
Yes, it is indeed. A very stark warning from the architects. They | :10:57. | :11:05. | |
say do not underestimate the report because lives are at risk here. I am | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
standing in front of one architectural gem, the city | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
Chambers, belonging to Glasgow City Council. Well built, well | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
maintained, standing here since Victorian times. But the architects | :11:19. | :11:22. | |
are laying down a challenge to every local authority, every health board, | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
every public body in Scotland, you need to carry safety checks on | :11:27. | :11:30. | |
public buildings which have been constructed since the year 2000. | :11:31. | :11:38. | |
This is in the wake of the coal report which was commissioned after | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
the incident at a primary school in Edinburgh January 2016, when one | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
wall collapsed, sending nine tonnes of masonry crashing down. Defects | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
were found in another 16 schools. The architects are saying that is | :11:53. | :11:56. | |
why it is very important that checks must be carried out, because it | :11:57. | :12:00. | |
would be naive to assume that there are not similar problems in other | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
buildings right across Scotland. But the architects' proposals are also | :12:05. | :12:11. | |
being seen as quite controversial? Guest-macro, it is quite a | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
controversial proposal. The main criticism is that this is | :12:17. | :12:19. | |
essentially a job creation scheme for them. I put that to the Royal | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
incorporation of up to when I spoke to them earlier. -- I put that to | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
the Royal Incorporation of Architects. They say quantity | :12:29. | :12:35. | |
surveyors, engineers and architects can all be called upon to carry out | :12:36. | :12:40. | |
the specialist checks on these buildings. They say local | :12:41. | :12:44. | |
authorities and public bodies must now muster all the specialists to | :12:45. | :12:48. | |
carry out these checks because it is a very stark warning, a very real | :12:49. | :12:55. | |
challenge for public bodies in Scotland. | :12:56. | :12:56. | |
Two footballers ruled to be rapists by a judge in a civil action have | :12:57. | :12:59. | |
begun an appeal process which could lead to a full legal | :13:00. | :13:02. | |
Former Dundee United team-mates David Goodwillie and David Robertson | :13:03. | :13:05. | |
were ordered to pay agreed damages of ?100,000 to Denise Clair | :13:06. | :13:08. | |
following a hearing at the Court of Session. | :13:09. | :13:10. | |
Neither man faced a criminal prosecution and both claimed sex | :13:11. | :13:12. | |
Both men are applying for legal aid for the appeal process. | :13:13. | :13:18. | |
The price of Scottish farmed salmon is standing at a record high. | :13:19. | :13:22. | |
That's partly because of demand, but also because the | :13:23. | :13:25. | |
It's due to sea lice, a parasite which has become | :13:26. | :13:30. | |
a serious problem for the industry, particularly in Scotland. | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
Our business and economy editor, Douglas Fraser, has been | :13:36. | :13:37. | |
Scottish salmon sells on a clean pristine environment. Fish grown | :13:38. | :13:53. | |
here could be exported to 50 countries. Demand has leapt and so | :13:54. | :13:57. | |
has the price because the mind has dropped. That is because of sea lice | :13:58. | :14:02. | |
which floated on the tide. With warming waters, they are becoming | :14:03. | :14:06. | |
more of a problem. They have become resistant to the chemicals used in | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
fish food to combat them. They are very hard to eradicate and for | :14:11. | :14:14. | |
growing salmon they make them more vulnerable to disease. What should | :14:15. | :14:19. | |
be done? Options include chemical treatment. Marine Harvest saw its | :14:20. | :14:24. | |
use of hydrogen peroxide saw 15 fold over four years without getting on | :14:25. | :14:27. | |
top of the problem. There are cleaner fish which eat nice. Or a | :14:28. | :14:35. | |
warm bath which shocks the life and knocks them off but it is not that | :14:36. | :14:41. | |
easy. Last year on at least one occasion it went badly wrong. This | :14:42. | :14:45. | |
is a new piece of equipment we have acquired and we tried it on one of | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
our farms and unfortunately we lost a lot of fish, 460 tonnes of fish in | :14:51. | :14:57. | |
that process. That is nearly 100,000 fish killed. It is a lot of fish and | :14:58. | :15:03. | |
it is extremely regrettable. The evidence suggests this is a problem | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
which has got out of control. I would not agree with that. Some | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
areas are worse than others. Some farms have had very little impact at | :15:14. | :15:15. | |
areas are worse than others. Some all. For us as farmers, the | :15:16. | :15:19. | |
important thing is to monitor the fish on a regular basis. Our aim is | :15:20. | :15:24. | |
to use mechanical methods and to use cleaner fish to get rid of lice on | :15:25. | :15:30. | |
our fish. The tonnage of salmon produced last year slumped. Average | :15:31. | :15:35. | |
fish size is down. Many are slaughtered before an infestation of | :15:36. | :15:41. | |
life can take hold. It is a serious economic problem right now. Although | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
price of salmon is really high. Most farms do not have any problem | :15:47. | :15:49. | |
covering the additional cost. For farms do not have any problem | :15:50. | :15:53. | |
the salmon industry, it is a much bigger challenge that they have a | :15:54. | :15:56. | |
parasite, that they cannot handle well now. What about the consumer, | :15:57. | :16:04. | |
will the lice put people off? It is a national phenomenon. It is all | :16:05. | :16:10. | |
part of the national process. It is a farming environment. All livestock | :16:11. | :16:14. | |
and farms, be they terrestrial or marine are encountering some kind of | :16:15. | :16:20. | |
either a parasite or a kick or whatever if it is sheep farming. And | :16:21. | :16:25. | |
they are dealt with and that is part of livestock farming. | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
It's a problem that will have to be sorted and quickly if Scotland is to | :16:32. | :16:38. | |
hit the industry's new target of doubling salmon production within 13 | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
years. Douglas, Frazier, Reporting Scotland. | :16:44. | :16:46. | |

which document the development of the UK's civil nuclear industry. | :17:16. | :17:17. | |
NEWS REEL: Dominating the site on the northern | :17:18. | :17:32. | |
coast of Scotland is the #re8 actor... This is what the early days | :17:33. | :17:36. | |
of Britain's nuclear power industry looked like. The construction of the | :17:37. | :17:41. | |
fast reactor in the 1950s placed Britain at the leading edge of | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
nuclear technology. The history of this and other nuclear power | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
projects is being collected here in this space age complex. The | :17:51. | :17:54. | |
knowledge generated during the research as well as at other sites | :17:55. | :18:01. | |
like Sellafield remains highly valuable to scientists around the | :18:02. | :18:05. | |
world. Academics picking up the strands of research, carried out | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
here in Caithness, and are other companies and whatever it may be. | :18:11. | :18:14. | |
It's open to all. These records will also be vital for the engineers now | :18:15. | :18:22. | |

stretching back centuries. Everything is stormed in | :18:33. | :18:35. | |
temperature-controlled conditions. The boxes here house the | :18:36. | :18:38. | |
photographic collection. Over several years all of the archives in | :18:39. | :18:43. | |
Britain's nuclear plants will be sent here. That will create an | :18:44. | :18:49. | |
archive which is priceless in scientific terms, but in social | :18:50. | :18:52. | |
history terms it will be valuable, too. It was a small fishing town | :18:53. | :18:57. | |
before the nuclear industry. You can see the growth that took place and | :18:58. | :19:03. | |
ended up with 2,500 well-paid jobs in the area. They will be hard to | :19:04. | :19:10. | |
replace, I have to say. Some of the earliest innovations in the nuclear | :19:11. | :19:12. | |
industry happened here. NEWS REEL: | :19:13. | :19:15. | |

23 couples tied the knot at Scotland's romance | :22:19. | :22:21. | |
As the country gets more and more secular, today was also | :22:22. | :22:25. | |
a special day for Humanist weddings in Scotland. | :22:26. | :22:27. | |
Love was in the air as 23 couples came to exchange vows in Gretna on | :22:28. | :22:41. | |
this, the most romantic day of the year. Among them, the new Mr and Mrs | :22:42. | :22:46. | |
Simons from Suffolk. It's a special day for us because we've known each | :22:47. | :22:52. | |
other six... Seven. Seven years and we met on Valentine's Day. It's a | :22:53. | :22:55. | |
special and meaningful day for us. Definitely. Why Gretna? It''s | :22:56. | :23:01. | |
romantic and on our own, I We didn't want think. The hassle. We have too | :23:02. | :23:06. | |
many families members, we were there to impress them. We thought we will | :23:07. | :23:10. | |
do Runaways have been ourselves. Coming here for years. Gretna's | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
romantic history remains the attraction for many. Lots of | :23:15. | :23:18. | |
stories. People have anecdotes about this place. That is part of the | :23:19. | :23:20. | |
attraction. They love the story and the romance that goes along with | :23:21. | :23:25. | |
those stories. Numbers were down last year from last year's 32 and | :23:26. | :23:28. | |
the 84 Valentine weddings in 2003. last year from last year's 32 and | :23:29. | :23:36. | |
That was when civil marriages were allowed outside registration offices | :23:37. | :23:38. | |
outside Scotland. Today there walls another first. Humanist weddings | :23:39. | :23:45. | |
have been legal here since 2005, but only under temporary legislation. | :23:46. | :23:50. | |
The Humanist Social of Scotland was prescribed under law. | :23:51. | :23:57. | |
We are the nonreligious body to be prescribed in Scotland under the | :23:58. | :24:03. | |
Marriage Act. It's hugely significant and reflects the change | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
in position, the rise of nonreligious people in Scotland. | :24:09. | :24:11. | |
It's now rightly reflected by a change in law. Be the ceremony, | :24:12. | :24:16. | |
humanist, religious or civil there is of course a common tradition - to | :24:17. | :24:19. | |
seal it with a kiss! A group of kayakers had | :24:20. | :24:26. | |
an unexpected encounter as they paddled in the Firth of | :24:27. | :24:38. | |
Forth. They were filming their trip | :24:39. | :24:40. | |
when they were approached by this inquisitive seal near Inchcolm | :24:41. | :24:42. | |
Island. To their surprise, the animal | :24:43. | :24:44. | |
decided to join them. It seemed to be quite relaxed | :24:45. | :24:46. | |
and stayed with them for some time. It was so at ease that at one point | :24:47. | :24:49. | |
the kayakers said it looked like it Look. Aw! It was clever. It was | :24:50. | :24:53. | |
having ha little rest. Let's get the weather | :24:54. | :25:03. | |
from Christopher. Lovely spells of sunshine for some | :25:04. | :25:12. | |
of us today. In fact, 14 degrees was the top temperature on the Isle of | :25:13. | :25:18. | |
Skye. Thicker cloud to the east coast. Or weather watchers, blue | :25:19. | :25:25. | |
skies on the West Coast. The east coast, grey skies. For many tonight | :25:26. | :25:29. | |
largely dry and cloudy. There will be some patchy outbreaks of rain | :25:30. | :25:33. | |
around the west and south-west as a we can weather front works | :25:34. | :25:37. | |
northwards. Many areas dry. There will be clear conditions to the east | :25:38. | :25:42. | |
highlands up towards Murray. We will have the coldest weather overnight. | :25:43. | :25:45. | |
Frost in the countryside. Elsewhere five Celsius, that will cover it. | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
Tomorrow, a largely cloudy day. Reasonably dry, but once again, a | :25:51. | :25:54. | |

heavier band of rain accompanied by a strengthening sorely wind, | :26:34. | :26:37. | |
potentially touching gale force for the western isles later. Low | :26:38. | :26:41. | |
pressure will work across the north of the country as we head through | :26:42. | :26:45. | |
towards Thursday. That means Thursday will be unsettled. By that | :26:46. | :26:49. | |
we mean cloudy, wet and breezy. Because the wind is coming in from | :26:50. | :26:53. | |
the west you will feel it through the central belt as it funnels | :26:54. | :26:58. | |
through. Once again, mild. Friday, high pressure sitting overhead | :26:59. | :27:01. | |
keeping things largely dry, mostly settled. Some sunshine to the east. | :27:02. | :27:05. | |
Once again, mild. That's the forecast for now. Thank you, | :27:06. | :27:06. | |
Christopher. Now, a reminder of | :27:07. | :27:10. | |
tonight's main news. It's believed half of mental health | :27:11. | :27:12. | |

more than a year to access a mental health service specifically | :27:16. | :27:18. | |
designed to help them. Charities and youth organisations | :27:19. | :27:20. | |
