:00:00. > :00:16.BBC Scotland has learnt that cameras installed on boats

:00:17. > :00:18.to monitor the ban on so-called discards are being

:00:19. > :00:21.The number of them has halved in three years,

:00:22. > :00:24.and WWF Scotland says there's now no effective monitoring of the ban.

:00:25. > :00:29.Our environment correspondent Kevin Keane reports.

:00:30. > :00:32.It's a controversial practice which all sides want to end

:00:33. > :00:34.but the contention is over how to do it.

:00:35. > :00:37.Discards are the dead fish thrown back into the sea because the boat

:00:38. > :00:45.It's now being banned, a few species at a time.

:00:46. > :00:47.Three years ago, boats were offered a chance to install

:00:48. > :00:50.cameras to help the monitoring of the ban.

:00:51. > :00:53.As an incentive, skippers were allowed to bring back more fish.

:00:54. > :00:57.But for cod, the scheme has ended and the cameras

:00:58. > :01:01.are being handed back, which is causing alarm.

:01:02. > :01:04.We have significant concerns about the low levels of monitoring

:01:05. > :01:08.taking place of what's happening at sea.

:01:09. > :01:12.In fact, the number of vessels monitored is only around 1%,

:01:13. > :01:17.so we are concerned that we are not able to know what is happening

:01:18. > :01:21.and whether the ban is being adhered to.

:01:22. > :01:24.With many species found in mixed fisheries, where they swim together,

:01:25. > :01:28.a netload might fill their quota for a fish they don't want,

:01:29. > :01:33.For fishermen, the problem is not the monitoring,

:01:34. > :01:38.The cameras never did exist to do that.

:01:39. > :01:42.They were never meant as a compliance tool.

:01:43. > :01:46.We had hoped they would contribute to the science.

:01:47. > :01:49.We are nowhere near the sort of technology to allow that

:01:50. > :01:52.to happen, but in the fullness of time it might do.

:01:53. > :01:55.To use them as an extremely expensive compliance tool

:01:56. > :02:02.The Fisheries Minister has been unavailable to interview today,

:02:03. > :02:21.but in a statement, the Scottish Government said...

:02:22. > :02:24.Fishermen say the ban is inflexible and are pinning their hopes

:02:25. > :02:28.on a new, post-Brexit fishing policy to produce a solution

:02:29. > :02:36.The number of schoolchildren classed as having additional support needs

:02:37. > :02:39.has gone up dramatically in recent years.

:02:40. > :02:41.Last year, nearly a quarter of pupils had an

:02:42. > :02:46.But the number of dedicated teachers has fallen by a fifth in five years.

:02:47. > :02:48.While children with additional needs usually stay in mainstream schools,

:02:49. > :02:49.sometimes this isn't the right option.

:02:50. > :02:51.Our education correspondent Jamie McIvor reports.

:02:52. > :02:53.Falkland House in Fife is a specialist facility for boys

:02:54. > :03:01.It helps children with autism, ADHD, Tourette's and social,

:03:02. > :03:14.Some of its success stories are remarkable.

:03:15. > :03:17.When I was 12, I couldn't read or write.

:03:18. > :03:23.I went from, I'm currently now in college doing my intro to sport

:03:24. > :03:29.and hopefully be ready for university by the end of the course.

:03:30. > :03:32.You get the personal attention that you need.

:03:33. > :03:39.In mainstream schools, there are 20 people in a class

:03:40. > :03:42.He was diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder

:03:43. > :03:48.I think the authorities would have been happy for him to struggle

:03:49. > :03:53.through secondary school, but we had to get the headteacher

:03:54. > :03:58.and another support network to fight for us.

:03:59. > :04:01.Karen's ten-year-old son is at Falkland House.

:04:02. > :04:03.He has Asperger's syndrome and was desperately unhappy

:04:04. > :04:14.He was admitted into Yorkhill and the childhood

:04:15. > :04:16.He was admitted into Yorkhill and the childhood and family

:04:17. > :04:20.It was an emergency admission because things got that extreme.

:04:21. > :04:22.He did not want to be in this world any more.

:04:23. > :04:24.She also faced battle with the council.

:04:25. > :04:26.They disbanded the disability team within social work and generic

:04:27. > :04:32.social workers took over, who didn't have an understanding.

:04:33. > :04:35.Provision varies across Scotland, while the number of specialist

:04:36. > :04:41.We are lacking educational psychologists.

:04:42. > :04:45.We are training them, but the numbers are decreasing.

:04:46. > :04:49.We would like to see a review of how we are supporting

:04:50. > :04:54.the training of educational psychologists, their role.

:04:55. > :04:56.There's widespread support for the principle of trying to keep

:04:57. > :05:02.The Government is looking at the guidance.

:05:03. > :05:05.The Government is currently reviewing what is available

:05:06. > :05:10.on the principle of mainstreaming to make sure it is appropriate

:05:11. > :05:14.for our times and meets the needs of the current educational environment.

:05:15. > :05:16.Removing a child from a mainstream school is always

:05:17. > :05:22.The fear is that a lack of money or specialist staff may

:05:23. > :05:25.sometimes make things harder for youngsters who face

:05:26. > :05:36.Celtic face a battle with the English league

:05:37. > :05:38.leaders Chelsea for one of their prize assets.

:05:39. > :05:40.Craig Gordon has already been the subject of one

:05:41. > :05:46.And his manager Brendan Rodgers maintains he wants the goalkeeper

:05:47. > :05:50.to sign a new deal at Celtic rather than head for the riches of England.

:05:51. > :05:53.He's caught the eye of the top team in England.

:05:54. > :05:56.Chelsea are also one of the richest, and could offer Craig Gordon

:05:57. > :06:03.At Celtic, though, he is key to present and future plans.

:06:04. > :06:08.He is someone I want to keep for a longer period, so I would hope

:06:09. > :06:12.that the only thing that comes out of this is that we can renegotiate

:06:13. > :06:16.with him and get him here for a longer period than the

:06:17. > :06:20.18 months he has left, and he can get on with working and playing

:06:21. > :06:22.at a club that I know he loves being at.

:06:23. > :06:25.Brendan Rodgers does not want to sell, but he did say every

:06:26. > :06:32.If Chelsea meet the valuation, what does the player have to weigh up?

:06:33. > :06:36.Will he have first-team football at Chelsea?

:06:37. > :06:40.He has it at Celtic and has performed extremely well.

:06:41. > :06:45.He has changed his whole game under Brendan and he is enjoying himself.

:06:46. > :06:49.For him to go down and the second choice...

:06:50. > :06:52.In saying that, he could work his way into the team at Chelsea

:06:53. > :06:57.Having had a bid rejected, will Chelsea come back in?

:06:58. > :07:10.I don't know about a lot of name that I rate.

:07:11. > :07:13.If the Chelsea manager does not recognise the name,

:07:14. > :07:23.He has come back pretty much from the dead to be

:07:24. > :07:28.He had a hard spell of injury at Sunderland, but he has

:07:29. > :07:30.enjoyed his football here and hopefully he

:07:31. > :07:34.The next four days will be crucial in determining that.

:07:35. > :07:37.Chelsea have until the transfer window closes on Tuesday

:07:38. > :07:50.to make Celtic and Gordon an offer they can't refuse.

:07:51. > :07:57.And now the weather with Kirsteen. We did have sunshine across much of

:07:58. > :08:02.the country this morning, however the cloud did come rolling in from

:08:03. > :08:06.the west during the day. Thank you to our Weather Watcher in the

:08:07. > :08:13.Highlands for this stunning image. Tonight, Clady is how it stays with

:08:14. > :08:19.outbreaks of rain across many areas. Snow across the high ground and

:08:20. > :08:23.hills, with sweet in the lowlands and Central Belt. As the rain

:08:24. > :08:26.bridges into eastern areas, there will be the risk of ice.

:08:27. > :08:36.Temperatures recovering somewhat as we head into Sunday morning. Hide it

:08:37. > :08:40.from most of us tomorrow morning, gradually pulling towards the east

:08:41. > :08:45.over the course of the day. Leaving a legacy of cloud behind it, across

:08:46. > :08:50.much of central and eastern Scotland. Patchy rain continuing

:08:51. > :08:54.across eastern coastal areas into the afternoon. The best brightness

:08:55. > :09:00.tomorrow will be along western coastal areas. Through the likes of

:09:01. > :09:03.Argyll the northwest Highlands, the Western Isles and sky, we will see

:09:04. > :09:10.the odd rumble of thunder possible. Try a cost much of the North East,

:09:11. > :09:15.rain in Shetland, although the winds easing here. For the rest of the UK,

:09:16. > :09:21.a similar story to ourselves, improving from the west. Showers in

:09:22. > :09:26.Northern Ireland, otherwise cloudy with some rain and highs of 10

:09:27. > :09:31.Celsius. Tomorrow evening, that rain will pull away into the North Sea. A

:09:32. > :09:35.few showers remaining across the North West, otherwise becoming

:09:36. > :09:39.clear, cold with a widespread frost developing. For a Sunday,

:09:40. > :09:45.high-pressure overhead keeping the weather dry unsettled. Elsewhere,

:09:46. > :09:50.this rain were beginning to move in. That may just reach the very far

:09:51. > :09:55.south of Scotland in the afternoon. Otherwise looking dry wood spells of

:09:56. > :09:58.sunshine. That's the forecast. Thank you very much, that's it from

:09:59. > :10:01.everyone on the late
