:03:28. > :03:34.Yes ` an idea to boost small businesses by
:03:35. > :03:39.It's come from Derby City Council which this weekend has form`lly
:03:40. > :03:42.asked the Government to impose a tax on out of town superm`rkets.
:03:43. > :03:46.And the suggestion's been b`cked by 19 other local authoritids
:03:47. > :03:52.If Derby's big stores were taxed, for example, to help fund inner

:04:16. > :04:19.People go out of town more because these supermarkets `re
:04:20. > :04:24.drawing them away, so if thdy could be taxed then at least it is kind
:04:25. > :04:29.We must remember that some of the companies that would be affected
:04:30. > :04:32.by this actually are headqu`rtered here in the East Midlands.
:04:33. > :04:35.Companies like Boots, which already give an awful lot back
:04:36. > :04:38.to the community and to the business community as well, and this
:04:39. > :04:45.With me now is Councillor Ranjit Banwait, who's
:04:46. > :05:02.Yes, I do. That is because lost of us need to go there and the
:05:03. > :05:08.supermarkets provide somethhng that people want, so why punish them It
:05:09. > :05:13.supermarkets, it is about gdtting supermarkets, it is about gdtting
:05:14. > :05:17.them to fulfil their moral `nd civic responsibility to the local economy.
:05:18. > :05:25.Do they not already do that, because they provide employment for example?
:05:26. > :05:29.90% of the money spent in local supermarkets is taken away from our
:05:30. > :05:35.local economy. Yes, they do employ people but they do not do that job
:05:36. > :05:39.for free, they make a huge `mount of profits and many of these companies
:05:40. > :05:44.are global companies, so thdy could be spending in Poland or anxwhere
:05:45. > :05:49.else in the world. So you is going to stop there, then? Or will you
:05:50. > :05:57.also go for the big furniture retailers, electrical stores, they
:05:58. > :06:00.are all is up `` out of town to We are not trying to reinvent the
:06:01. > :06:04.wheel. We are trying to plax catch up with Northern Ireland and
:06:05. > :06:08.Scotland. As a result of thd money they have generated, they h`ve been
:06:09. > :06:11.able to support struggling small businesses and improved public
:06:12. > :06:16.services, so the president has already been set. It would just be
:06:17. > :06:21.supermarkets, then? Supermarkets to start with, and then see how that
:06:22. > :06:28.develops. Let's talk about Derby, because there are many people who
:06:29. > :06:35.think that other stores havd taken the lifeblood out of the arda. I
:06:36. > :06:39.don't agree with that. Supermarkets, especially whdre they
:06:40. > :06:44.are placed, have taken a lot of business out of the city centre on
:06:45. > :06:48.especially from thriving district centres. We have seen a lot of empty
:06:49. > :06:57.shops as a result. But I do not want to turn this into having a goal at
:06:58. > :07:04.big business,. But it does sound like that, doesn't it? It w`s
:07:05. > :07:10.councils who gave the superlarkets there opportunities in the first
:07:11. > :07:14.place? Yes, they did. I was working for the Council at the time. The
:07:15. > :07:20.profits of supermarkets will continue to grow, but let's remember
:07:21. > :07:25.that 90% of the money that hs spent in the supermarket leaves otr local
:07:26. > :07:26.economy for good. Yes, they do do some initiatives locally, btt they
:07:27. > :07:31.could do a lot more. Thank xou. With less than two weeks to go
:07:32. > :07:34.until the start of the football season, there's mounting spdculation
:07:35. > :07:37.that one of our clubs could be It's being reported that
:07:38. > :07:41.Nottingham Forest are going to announce a lucrative sponsorship
:07:42. > :07:46.deal for the name of their stadium. It's thought it could end up being
:07:47. > :07:52.called the Kuwait City Ground, There's a new manager in ch`rge
:07:53. > :07:56.at Nottingham Forest, but could the club's ground be
:07:57. > :07:59.about to get a new name? Reports in the UK and Kuwait,
:08:00. > :08:02.home of Forest's owner, Fawaz Mubarak Al`Hasawi,
:08:03. > :08:05.say it could soon be called the One Kuwaiti journalist
:08:06. > :08:11.said he expects it will Not less than half a billion,
:08:12. > :08:18.I think in ten years. Sorry, let me just be absolttely
:08:19. > :08:25.clear about what you said. The speculation has also bedn
:08:26. > :08:38.fuelled by this tweet from Al`Hasawi's son repeathng the
:08:39. > :08:45.name Kuwait City Ground Stadium No official confirmation yet,
:08:46. > :08:49.but the club is understood to be in negotiations about a number of
:08:50. > :08:54.different sponsorship opportunities. I think the bottom line is that
:08:55. > :08:57.the fans would still just c`ll it Actually, what difference would it
:08:58. > :09:01.make apart from the club getting more money, which puts
:09:02. > :09:04.a really good use into trying to get Anything that brings any money
:09:05. > :09:11.into the club must be a good thing, and I don't think the City Ground
:09:12. > :09:14.on its own is such a special name, so I think adding something to it
:09:15. > :09:17.is fine. The fact that it's still got
:09:18. > :09:19.City Ground in the name of the stadium, to be fair,
:09:20. > :09:23.makes it not too much of an issue. I am sure if you spoke to any fan
:09:24. > :09:27.on the street and they said if you were to change the name if xou could
:09:28. > :09:30.get back into the premiershhp and maybe back into the Chalpion's
:09:31. > :09:33.League, I am sure they would say, A confirmed name change
:09:34. > :09:37.at Nottingham Forest would be And Simon joins us now
:09:38. > :09:59.from what's called, for The whole business of naming rights
:10:00. > :10:01.is nothing new. Leicester Chty, its ground has had commercial
:10:02. > :10:07.sponsorship in its name since it was built. Derby struck a ?7 million
:10:08. > :10:10.deal last season, but what could be significant here is the amotnt of
:10:11. > :10:17.money that is being talked `bout by some journalists. Some of them are
:10:18. > :10:21.insistent that it could be worth ?500 million over the coursd of the
:10:22. > :10:25.next ten years. That is mord than Manchester City got by the naming of
:10:26. > :10:29.its ground. You can also be sure that the football authoritids will
:10:30. > :10:33.be watching. They will check any sponsorship deals to ensure that
:10:34. > :10:35.they have not been overinfl`ted to bypass those financial fair play
:10:36. > :10:39.rules. Thank you, Simon. This is East Midlands Today `
:10:40. > :10:42.and it's welcome back Dominhc. I just hope you haven't put
:10:43. > :10:58.a dampener on the weather. It is a lot cloudier now, btt there

:21:26. > :21:28.face. I bruised the top of ly teeth and it was the shock more than
:21:29. > :21:33.anything. It is a noncontact sport, so when I get it I panicked a little
:21:34. > :21:38.bit it was fine. Just a bit of bruising. Silver and a bruise for
:21:39. > :21:45.Laura, and this is the final point in the men's final. Matthew in the
:21:46. > :21:50.White was off to a good start, winning the first game, but his
