Good evening. Paid parking hs coming Gompertz, BB News. | :00:11. | :00:11. | |
Good evening. Paid parking hs coming to Guernsey. It's one aspect of a | :00:12. | :00:15. | |
new transport strategy that deputies approved today. It's all ailed at | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
reducing private car use on the island, but it's taken up htndreds | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
of hours of States debate already. Louise Walter reports. Pay `nd | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
display will be the message in long`term car parks in future. A | :00:29. | :00:39. | |
contentious issue, and one some deputies feared wouldn't go down | :00:40. | :00:45. | |
well with the public. The m`in concern is very much related to the | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
effects on a very small grotp of people. From where we are now, they | :00:50. | :00:56. | |
would have to pay in the order of ?1300 a year for long`term parking. | :00:57. | :00:58. | |
And the Environment Minister, whose department brought in the proposals, | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
admits his own department isn't united on the issue. Yes thdre is a | :01:02. | :01:08. | |
split in the department over this issue, but actually it seems to be | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
mirrored within this assembly so I don't think there's any surprise | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
there. I think some of the discussions we have had havd been as | :01:18. | :01:23. | |
Frank and as honest and as differing interviews as we've had herd. Other | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
measures voted on today include a CO2 tax, a first registration duty | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
and a width tax for private motor cars. So what will the Statds do | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
with all this extra income? They've agreed to pay for free buses for 18 | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
months and better facilities for cyclists and pedestrians. Btt while | :01:37. | :01:41. | |
the mindset of the political classes may be leaning towards a grdener | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
future, persuading the publhc to get out of their cars may be more | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
tricky. No timetable for action has yet been released. | :01:50. | :01:54. | |
A 42`year`old man from Guernsey has been sentenced to eight years in | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
prison for sexual offences `gainst two young girls. Wayne Marthn | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
Brouard was convicted in February for the indecent assault of an | :02:03. | :02:06. | |
eight`year`old girl in 1999. He s also been found guilty of four | :02:07. | :02:09. | |
counts of taking indecent photographs of an 11`year`old | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
disabled girl in 2011. An ehght`year custodial sentence was given | :02:14. | :02:15. | |
alongside a five`year extended sentence, to be served after he | :02:16. | :02:17. | |
leaves prison. A 71`year`old man is being treated | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
in hospital after falling off a ladder at Guernsey's QE2 Marina St | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
John Ambulance and Rescue s`y the incident happened just before | :02:29. | :02:31. | |
5.00pm. Guernsey Fire and Rdscue were called in to help lift the man | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
to safety. His injuries are described as not life threatening. | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
In shock and disbelief ` th`t's how one man was left in Jersey when his | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
999 call wasn't dealt with efficiently, not on just ond | :02:45. | :02:46. | |
occasion, but two. He wants the company JT ` which runs the call | :02:47. | :02:52. | |
centre ` to review its procddures. Luxmy Gopal reports. One nulber | :02:53. | :03:01. | |
dialled three times. You're sort of hope if you find yourself in an | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
emergency. But the sandy, hhs hopes faded when his 84`year`old father | :03:07. | :03:11. | |
had a fall and his 999 call for an ambulance wasn't and said. He | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
eventually got help by dialling police headquarters. It was one of | :03:17. | :03:23. | |
shock and disbelief. You di`l an emergency number and you expected to | :03:24. | :03:30. | |
be answered fairly quickly. For the phone to still be ringing after four | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
minutes and 12 seconds I just couldn't understand what was | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
happening. And, on another occasion, when he needed police help he was | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
put through to the ambulancd service instead. When you put through to the | :03:44. | :03:50. | |
wrong service it is only gohng to hold things up. All emergency calls | :03:51. | :03:57. | |
in Jersey come through here, too JT operators. They receive abott 6 0 | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
calls a week. They answer 98.5% of calls within five seconds. 80% of | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
those calls aren't real emergencies. Many are hoaxes. | :04:07. | :04:19. | |
Emergency, which service pldase But how did a genuine emergency call | :04:20. | :04:24. | |
slip through the system this was simply a human error. It's one of | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
those that doesn't happen vdry often. We have about 30,000 calls a | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
year and that is the only one we are where. We are very sorry and | :04:34. | :04:42. | |
apologetic. JT have recentlx reached view their system to prevent this | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
happening again, so sandy and anyone else who dials nine and I won't be | :04:49. | :04:50. | |
on hold. The Pope is being asked to lend his | :04:51. | :04:57. | |
support to a campaign against a disused Catholic Church in Gorey | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
Village being knocked down for houses. Fraser Martin, who lives | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
nearby, has written to the Vatican because he's so upset by thd | :05:04. | :05:05. | |
proposals. More than 100 islanders have signed a petition against the | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
development. Mr Martin says if the site has to be developed, hd wants | :05:10. | :05:12. | |
it turned into a Christian outreach centre instead. I think as far as | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
asking any earthly authoritx, I ve gone to the highest level. H'm about | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
to go with that letter to the highest I can. I have every | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
confidence that I will get ` response from the Pope. Bec`use I | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
feel that what I'm doing is right. A Jersey woman has set a new record | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
by becoming the first woman in the Channel Islands to donate 100 pints | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
of blood. Jean McLaughlin, who's one of the oldest donors registdred | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
here, reached the milestone today. Since she started giving blood in | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
1962, she's donated enough to fill the average body ten times. She says | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
she feels very humble and ddlighted and hopes her example will hnspire | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
others. It's very important because I'd achieved so much. And sorry To | :05:54. | :06:04. | |
give blood is very important. We all need it and the mod blood donors we | :06:05. | :06:06. | |
have the better. The Queen's baton relay has visited | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
six Guernsey schools today. The baton carries a message frol the | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
Queen to be taken to the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow later | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
this summer. Tomorrow it gods to Alderney, Herm and Sark.. | :06:17. | :06:22. | |
That's it from me tonight. Dmily's next with the Weather and the | :06:23. | :06:28. | |
national forecast follows hdr. Goodnight. It looks like fine | :06:29. | :06:36. | |
weather for the last offici`l day of the Queens Baton Relay tomorrow We | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
are going to keep the fine conditions for the rest the week. | :06:41. | :06:46. | |
Tonight, it is looking quitd quiet with mainly clear skies and light | :06:47. | :06:51. | |
winds. The dry night and not too cold either. First thing tolorrow, | :06:52. | :06:59. | |
it is set to be a fine start to the day with plenty of sunshine in the | :07:00. | :07:03. | |
morning. Perhaps some fair weather cloud passing through in thd | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
afternoon. Overall, it should be quite warm in the sunshine. With | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
highs of 18 degrees. The fine weather continues with yet lore | :07:13. | :07:20. | |
sunshine on Friday and on S`turday. Light to moderate winds and | :07:21. | :07:23. | |
temperatures up to 17 or 18 degrees. On Sunday, a bit of | :07:24. | :07:30. | |
uncertainty. Here's the sumlary for tomorrow. | :07:31. | :07:31. | |
see 21 or so. We keep that going right until the weekend. Here's the | :07:32. | :07:40. | |
outlook. Good evening. Mother nature was kind to us today, sunny skies, | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
the birds and bees were out but not everywhere because one or two places | :07:46. | :07:48. | |
where a little on the cloudy side. For example, here on a satellite | :07:49. | :07:51. | |
picture, Northern Ireland and Scotland, increasing cloud. To the | :07:52. | :07:57. | |
south, you can see the vast majority of the country, Wales and England, | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
scattered cloud, so lots of find weather. We will turn the heat up in | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
the next few days but in terms of the sunshine tomorrow, you might be | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
surprised that it's more cloudy compared to what we had today. Let's | :08:13. | :08:18. | |
look at the details. Tonight, from Wales, the Midlands, and | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
Lincolnshire, they will get quite chilly tonight, maybe three degrees | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
in the countryside. In the city centre is it always a bit warmer. In | :08:27. | :08:32. | |
Scotland, it will stay fairly damp tonight with mist and murky weather. | :08:33. | :08:38. | |
Misty in one or two other places but starting sunny in the south and | :08:39. | :08:41. | |
then, through the morning and afternoon, it will turn quite | :08:42. | :08:43. | |
cloudy. However, | :08:44. | :08:44. |
