:00:00. > :00:12.Good evening. of that interview with Pele on BB
:00:13. > :00:15.The number of prisoners in Jersey has fallen over the last five years.
:00:16. > :00:18.The Prison's annual report, released this week, revealed La Moye
:00:19. > :00:25.But so far this year, that number's dropped to a daily average of 1 7.
:00:26. > :00:27.What the report does highlight is that the majority
:00:28. > :00:33.147 people who were sent to prison over the year to the end
:00:34. > :00:40.Fewer people are entering the gates of La Moye prison,
:00:41. > :00:46.however the ones who do are no stranger to life behind these bars.
:00:47. > :00:49.The most frequent repeat offenders tend to be drug users, who rely
:00:50. > :00:56.Or those who can't find work after they leave prison, and turn
:00:57. > :01:14.Some go back to strong support, but others we have defined a mistake ``
:01:15. > :01:18.place to stay before they are liberated. Work is a major problem.
:01:19. > :01:19.If they have no income or w`y of getting an income, the chances are
:01:20. > :01:31.they will commit crime to strvive. The prison is quick to say that
:01:32. > :01:33.repeat offending is not a significant problem, but adlit there
:01:34. > :01:36.are still many individuals whose However the government belidves
:01:37. > :01:40.the current system is working. The system we operate for most
:01:41. > :01:42.prisoners who've cooperated and aren't at risk to the ptblic is
:01:43. > :01:45.that they get released on d`y work schemes during the last year or so
:01:46. > :01:49.of their sentence and if thdy can find work that helps,
:01:50. > :01:51.then in the last month or so they will be released
:01:52. > :01:54.into their own home ` provided there But there isn't always
:01:55. > :01:58.a home to go back to. Even so, La Moye Prison say
:01:59. > :02:08.they have done all they can. Do you think you need to look more
:02:09. > :02:11.closely at the rehabilitation team? `` scheme?
:02:12. > :02:15.And that's partly why we make a good reduction to prison numbers
:02:16. > :02:19.But Jersey's prison populathon rate is still higher than many other
:02:20. > :02:20.European countries, who also share the problem
:02:21. > :02:29.It's being billed as the latest weapon in the fight
:02:30. > :02:36.Telecoms companies in the Channel Islands are installhng new
:02:37. > :02:37.equipment to prevent islanddrs downloading illegal images,
:02:38. > :02:49.This device is protecting thousands of people in the
:02:50. > :02:52.Inside it there are filters from the Internet Watch Foundation,
:02:53. > :02:53.blocking illegal online content such as child pornography.
:02:54. > :02:56.The telecom company Airtel Vodafone is the first operator in thd
:02:57. > :02:58.Channel Islands to introducd it on their network.
:02:59. > :03:07.The uncomfortable truth is that the telecoms have decided to act because
:03:08. > :03:14.Today there have been zero `ttempts, and when we first put it in, there
:03:15. > :03:15.were lots of attempts, so pdople have learned that they cannot do it
:03:16. > :03:18.and they have stopped. The uncomfortable truth is that the
:03:19. > :03:21.telecoms have decided to act because there are people in the Channel
:03:22. > :03:24.Islands who are downloading and even In this office in Cambridge
:03:25. > :03:28.a handful of staff are on p`trol Their job is to monitor images
:03:29. > :03:32.from the world wide web. So graphic is the content the staff
:03:33. > :03:36.have to have regular counselling. They can close down UK webshtes
:03:37. > :03:39.and block overseas ones containing This information is then relayed to
:03:40. > :03:52.the filters here in the There is a significant enough
:03:53. > :03:55.problem that it's something we have to tackle, whether it is local
:03:56. > :04:00.people, coming into the isl`nds on business or on holiday, but wherever
:04:01. > :04:01.it is coming on `` from, we have to acknowledge there is an isste like
:04:02. > :04:04.anywhere else. Vodafone introduced this
:04:05. > :04:05.protection two months ago. JT have told me that the majority
:04:06. > :04:08.of their broadband customers are now covered
:04:09. > :04:10.by the filters with the rem`inder to Sure have this week signed tp to the
:04:11. > :04:15.IWF and still need to install the Flybe has announced its first
:04:16. > :04:21.pre`tax profit in four years. But it's come at a cost to staff
:04:22. > :04:24.and passengers here in the Almost 50 jobs were cut
:04:25. > :04:28.as the airline closed its b`ses In terms of routes, five services
:04:29. > :04:33.from Jersey have gone, and both Neil Gallacher sent this report
:04:34. > :04:50.from Exeter airport. It is a striking turnaround, pre`tax
:04:51. > :04:53.profit of ?8.1 million against a loss of over ?40 million last year.
:04:54. > :04:57.The new boss has only been here for about ten months and today he is
:04:58. > :05:02.talking about the rebirth of the airline. The secret in our world is
:05:03. > :05:09.that we must be disciplined in how we deploy our capital, how we focus
:05:10. > :05:13.aircraft, and what routes wd select. That is the benefit of all,
:05:14. > :05:17.ultimately. We want to have a sustainable and bright future that
:05:18. > :05:22.is there the long run for otr customers, and for the livelihoods
:05:23. > :05:26.of our employees depends on that locally in the south`west. He has
:05:27. > :05:31.had a lot of controversial stuff to do, cutting jobs, cutting flights,
:05:32. > :05:35.dropping some of the aircraft from the fleet. Let me leave you with one
:05:36. > :05:40.telling stat. Their UK scheduled flights have seen passenger seat
:05:41. > :05:44.come down by about 1.5%, but passenger numbers have gone up by
:05:45. > :05:47.7%. Now that's quite a trick to pull off.
:05:48. > :05:49.Finally, States meetings in Guernsey could be televised or broadcast over
:05:50. > :05:52.the internet, if Deputies agree to new proposals in July.
:05:53. > :05:55.The plans are the work of the States Assembly and
:05:56. > :05:57.Constitution Committee, which wants to see more transparency and more
:05:58. > :06:05.You can currently listen live to the States on BBC Radio Guernsey.
:06:06. > :06:07.And BBC Radio Guernsey and Radio Jersey will be back
:06:08. > :06:10.on air from 6am with the latest news, travel and weather.
:06:11. > :06:13.I'll leave you with David Braine and the weather.
:06:14. > :06:23.Good evening, more fine weather to look forward to, not just the
:06:24. > :06:28.tomorrow, but for Friday and lasting into the weekend as well. Wd will
:06:29. > :06:32.get an amount of cloud, but that's the only problem we have, bdcause
:06:33. > :06:37.high`pressure has already ddveloped and will be with us. Clear skies
:06:38. > :06:40.tonight and a lot of fine wdather. It might be that we see mord cloud
:06:41. > :06:44.as we head into the weekend. I will come to that in a second but
:06:45. > :06:50.overnight, clear sky and temperatures down to 11 or 02
:06:51. > :06:55.degrees, and a fine day tonhght `` find a tomorrow. Ten bridges will
:06:56. > :06:59.get to 19 or 20 degrees and maybe in Jersey we will be higher th`n that,
:07:00. > :07:04.up to 22, with the winds light and from the North or Northeast. The
:07:05. > :07:07.outlook is fine for Friday, another warm day, more of a breeze `nd
:07:08. > :07:11.slightly more cloud around on Saturday and Sunday and that won't
:07:12. > :07:18.spoil the weekend. It is not a fine one. Strong sunshine this thme of
:07:19. > :07:23.year. The UV rays up at six or seven over the next couple of days and
:07:24. > :07:27.also the pollen is high but not good news if you are a hay fever
:07:28. > :07:33.sufferer. From the team herd, good night.
:07:34. > :07:39.of a late storm, at tupns ! bht fresher into the weekend
:07:40. > :07:45.On the eve of the World Cup, there was a bit of Brazil in Bridlington
:07:46. > :07:49.today because Bridlington on the east Yorkshire Coast shared the same
:07:50. > :07:53.top temperature as the Brazilian city of Sao Paulo, 22 degrees. That
:07:54. > :07:58.is as the weather settles down across the UK as this area of high
:07:59. > :08:00.pressure comes in. It's still with us at the weekend but its
