That's all from us. Now it's time for the | :00:00. | :00:14. | |
An Australian family facing deportation from the UK | :00:15. | :00:19. | |
have been granted leave to remain in the Highlands. | :00:20. | :00:21. | |
Gregg and Kathryn Brain and their son failed to meet | :00:22. | :00:23. | |
a deadline to qualify for a new visa and were told | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
But the couple have now found work, which meets | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
The Brain family face a more certain future this evening, after | :00:31. | :00:41. | |
being told the leave the UK six weeks ago, | :00:42. | :00:43. | |
they've now found work which means they can fulfil a dream | :00:44. | :00:45. | |
Seven months now we have been without work and, | :00:46. | :00:57. | |
you know, struggling and fighting through this whole process. | :00:58. | :01:03. | |
Kathryn Brain came to study in the Highland and Islands University. It | :01:04. | :01:14. | |
was understood that she would be able to stay here, but rules are | :01:15. | :01:20. | |
changed, making that difficult. Now she has secured a key reacher post | :01:21. | :01:25. | |
with the hotel chain, that secures them Leave to Remain in the UK. We | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
with the hotel chain, that secures have a brilliant employer on board. | :01:30. | :01:35. | |
They needed to get a certificate of sponsorship for this position. The | :01:36. | :01:38. | |
position itself meets all the criteria for the Home Office. We | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
feel like we have been guided. We followed the path are needed to | :01:43. | :01:48. | |
happen and we quite often found that we get reminded that things happen | :01:49. | :01:57. | |
in the 59th minute. After a high-profile campaign was launched | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
for them to stay, the Home Office argued that it gave the family a | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
number of extensions, allowing them time to secure a job which would | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
meet immigration rules. There are local MP says lessons must be | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
learned by the ways they were treated. All this grief and effort | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
that people have had to put up with was unnecessary. It demonstrates | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
that we need control of immigration policy here in Scotland, so we can | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
make decisions based on our own needs and criteria. I hope no one | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
else has to go through this kind of thing that the family have gone | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
through over the last couple of months. After months of living in | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
temporary accommodation, the unallocated for a permanent home. | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
They have one final hoop to jump through at the request of their son. | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
What do you want to have in the backyard of this house? A | :02:48. | :02:49. | |
trampoline. A trampoline. A social worker involved in the case | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
of the murdered Fife toddler A watchdog found Lesley Bate guilty | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
of twelve charges involving It said her misconduct | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
amounted to neglect. But it also criticised her employer | :03:03. | :03:04. | |
and some of the witnesses Panel members heard five days of | :03:05. | :03:17. | |
evidence and today delivered their judgment on Lesley Bate is. She has | :03:18. | :03:24. | |
stayed away. The charges against higher ran into five pages. She was | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
found guilty on all but one of them. 12 charges involving 15 children | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
over a three-year period. Some were at risk of physical and sexual | :03:34. | :03:39. | |
abuse. One of those children was Liam Fee. The childminder first | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
raised concerns in January 2013, she had a massive bruise on his | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
forehead. There were further concerned about a neck injury. More | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
than a year later, Liam was murdered by his mother and her partner. | :03:55. | :04:00. | |
Lesley Bate had visited Liam's home after the first injury. His mother | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
had said he had fallen out of his cot. Mrs Bate accepted that. She | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
failed to follow up on the later concerns. None of these would have | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
surprised those who feared for Liam's safety and tried to get him | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
help. The whole community is completely knocked by this. The | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
worst part is a lot of people were speaking up and we were not taken | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
seriously enough. We SSSC panel found Lesley Bate left Liam Fee and | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
other children at risk of actual or potential harm and her serious | :04:35. | :04:40. | |
misconduct amounted to neglect. Fife Council says it has every confidence | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
in the professionalism and integrity of the stuff they give evidence. | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
Tonight there are calls for a wider review. It is very clear there was | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
no joint working and the communication seems to have been | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
extremely poor throughout this case. We need to make sure there are no | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
others that are allowed to slip through the net. Whether the | :05:00. | :05:04. | |
authorities could have done more to stop them, it is now being | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
investigated by a significant case review. Fife Council declined to be | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
interviewed today. In a statement they said, the Lesley Bate Kreis | :05:13. | :05:25. | |
does not reflect high standards of professionalism it expects from its | :05:26. | :05:26. | |
staff. -- Leslie baked. The Scottish Labour Party is to have | :05:27. | :05:33. | |
more decision making power under plans agreed tonight by the UK | :05:34. | :05:36. | |
party's ruling body - the NEC. The NEC has approved devolving | :05:37. | :05:39. | |
control over policy constituency parties and Westminster | :05:40. | :05:41. | |
candidate selections. The changes still have to be agreed | :05:42. | :05:42. | |
by the Labour Party conference. This is going to be an ad hominem | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
Scottish Labour Party. It is a stub This is going to be an ad hominem | :05:47. | :05:56. | |
change. -- is huge change. It is good news for Scottish Labour. | :05:57. | :05:58. | |
Almost a quarter of young women in Scotland have reported they've | :05:59. | :06:00. | |
self-harmed that's according to a comprehensive survey | :06:01. | :06:02. | |
It also found eight percent have attempted suicide. | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
The figures in the Scottish Health Survey further highlight the link | :06:06. | :06:08. | |
between poor health and anxiety with deprivation. | :06:09. | :06:10. | |
Our home affairs correspondent Reevel Alderson has more. | :06:11. | :06:18. | |
How do we feel about ourselves? The annual health survey highlights | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
changes in personal well-being among Scots. It shows a level of anxiety | :06:25. | :06:32. | |
and depression being felt. Those in the most deprived areas are more | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
likely to suffer symptoms. 9% of women self harmed. The woman for end | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
was 6%. Among young women, the figure is 23%. For men it is 13%. 8% | :06:43. | :06:51. | |
of these young women and 4% of young men have attempted suicide. Mental | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
health charities say they are not surprised by these figures. They | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
have been receiving an increased number of calls from young people | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
seeking help. We know from the research and evidence we have been | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
looking at over the last couple of weeks that young women and body | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
image is a real issue. There is a lot going on in people's lives and | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
therefore, the increase in self harm, particularly with young women, | :07:15. | :07:21. | |
is a way that they can control situations themselves. The health | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
survey also reveals an increase in the number of people using | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
electronic cigarettes and a further decline in those smoking, although | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
it shows one in five still smokes. It also shows fewer children are | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
exposed to second-hand smoke in the home. The survey's aim is to provide | :07:38. | :07:44. | |
the Government information needed to tackle Scotland's health problems. | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
We are able to look at some of the key indicators in Scottish health | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
and be able to provide a picture of the nation's health and how that has | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
changed over time. What we are able to see on measures like smoking, for | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
example, is that there has been a long-term decline. Clearly, | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
information campaigns are not enough. Only one in five Scots meets | :08:08. | :08:10. | |
the recommendation of five portions of fruit and veg a day. That is the | :08:11. | :08:13. | |
same level as 13 years ago. Today's health figures also show | :08:14. | :08:15. | |
there's been almost no change in levels of physical | :08:16. | :08:18. | |
activity in Scotland. A quarter of all children | :08:19. | :08:20. | |
and a third of adults are failing to meet activity | :08:21. | :08:22. | |
guidelines set by the This is despite a promise | :08:23. | :08:25. | |
that the Commonwealth Games would inspire people | :08:26. | :08:28. | |
to become more active. This is the sort of cheap and | :08:29. | :08:45. | |
cheerful activity that can encourage healthy habits. We are stuck outside | :08:46. | :08:50. | |
all day. I think it is really fine and it helps you get healthy and | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
fit. The daily mile has been adopted by schools up and down the country. | :08:57. | :09:01. | |
It did not have any connection to the Commonwealth Games. Glasgow 2014 | :09:02. | :09:07. | |
was clearly popular. A catalyst for regeneration in the east end of the | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
city. It helped create a wave of elite athletes. When it comes to | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
mass participation in sport, we do not seem to be getting the message. | :09:17. | :09:23. | |
Why do politicians say it will? Inactivity is the second biggest | :09:24. | :09:26. | |
killer in Scotland. The Government set targets to combat it. It is | :09:27. | :09:33. | |
falling far short of this. Activity levels Remain stagnant, obesity | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
levels are poor. There has been no significant rise in children | :09:38. | :09:44. | |
participating in sport since 2008, before the Olympics and Commonwealth | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
Games came along. I do not accept that. The games have been an | :09:48. | :09:53. | |
important part in ensuring sport remains high on the agenda. The | :09:54. | :09:56. | |
whole investment in physical education and getting that 10% of | :09:57. | :10:02. | |
schools doing two hours to 90 98% of schools. It was a legacy of the | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
Commonwealth Games. Researchers say to change inactivity, will require a | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
cultural shift. Sport is not the first option for those people. We | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
need to look how we will get them active through active living, | :10:18. | :10:20. | |
cycling, walking, gardening and those kinds of activities, rather | :10:21. | :10:22. | |
than sport themselves. This is the those kinds of activities, rather | :10:23. | :10:28. | |
sort of thing, walking groups. Small steps, big benefits. First of all, | :10:29. | :10:33. | |
keeping in touch physically. It improves mobility and balance. We | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
are all very sociable. There is lots of talking, sometimes far too much | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
talking and less concentration. The attitudinal shift to get people | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
active is not going to come about by hosting a big sporting event. | :10:49. | :10:50. | |
The Scottish FA is investigating claims that the Rangers | :10:51. | :10:53. | |
player Joey Bartonbroke its gambling rules | :10:54. | :10:54. | |
The SFA prevents players from betting on any football games. | :10:55. | :10:58. | |
It's understood the allegations centre around | :10:59. | :10:59. | |
a bet placed on Celtic's recent Champions League match | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
Well, It's over to Kirsteen now with the weather outlook | :11:04. | :11:09. | |
Thank you. Good evening. It has been a lovely end to the day across much | :11:10. | :11:23. | |

heavier and more frequent for a time. This batch of rain continuing | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
