:02:04. > :02:06.lessons in term time? The body that represents rank`and`file police
:02:07. > :02:10.officers believe they should. There are many officers who will not

:02:15. > :02:19.are going to need to take children out of a have a family holiday
:02:20. > :02:24.during term time. They're not able to take children out during the peak
:02:25. > :02:26.time so it is not their fault. The chief constable of Humbdrside
:02:27. > :02:47.police said in a letter: The chief constable makes the point
:02:48. > :02:52.that busiest times for her fours coincide with the main Christmas and

:03:05. > :03:11.officers are deployed to thhngs such as the NATO summit in Wales and the
:03:12. > :03:14.Commonwealth Games. This idda has been criticised by some teachers,
:03:15. > :03:22.saying they are coming under increasing pressure.
:03:23. > :03:33.Some times, requests are not unreasonable. The armed services,
:03:34. > :03:37.especially people are coming back from a tour of duty. There `re lots
:03:38. > :03:44.of people that we can say c`n expect `` are an exception. If we're not
:03:45. > :03:47.careful, who isn't an exception Parents who take children ott of
:03:48. > :03:51.school face fines were hundreds of pounds in some cases. This woman

:03:59. > :04:01.I have an issue with holidaxs. I can't afford to take them on
:04:02. > :04:06.holidays so they can't go bdcause they cant have time off school.
:04:07. > :04:11.Giving the police should get special treatment? No. It is a body. Michael
:04:12. > :04:15.Gove says the government wants to ensure that unnecessary school
:04:16. > :04:19.absences are kept to a minilum, but headteacher should have the
:04:20. > :04:20.discretion to allow holidays in term time under exceptional
:04:21. > :04:38.circumstances. Sion Humphreys is from the National
:04:39. > :04:51.Association of Headteachers and . If you had a letter from ` parent
:04:52. > :04:59.who wanted to take a week off in term time, should be granted? In my
:05:00. > :05:08.opinion, no. They is a degrde of discretion Headteachers havd. It is
:05:09. > :05:18.not a 100% blanket rule. To make an exception on one occupation`l sector
:05:19. > :05:23.is driving a policy. If she has their offices off during
:05:24. > :05:27.Christmas the summer holidaxs, we have to have them there, thdy are a
:05:28. > :05:34.special case. Far be it for me to criticise, but
:05:35. > :05:37.it would seem a little extrdme to suggest that they are totally
:05:38. > :05:45.occupied at those times of xear There are 13 weeks when children are
:05:46. > :05:50.not in school. I'm not unsylpathetic towards the plight of parents, but
:05:51. > :05:58.when you look at the price hike that takes place in the summer holidays,
:05:59. > :06:07.some research found something like a ?1300 differential.
:06:08. > :06:14.But let me come back to Michael Gove. He has said, Headteachers must
:06:15. > :06:18.consider each request for ldave on its merit, so he is saying ht is up
:06:19. > :06:21.to the Headteachers. Your advice would be to turn them down, would
:06:22. > :06:29.it? Our advice would be there are always
:06:30. > :06:36.exceptional circumstances. Our advice would be that holidaxs during
:06:37. > :06:43.school time should be discotraged. Your message of the chief constable
:06:44. > :06:49.and police officers? There is no harm in asking for
:06:50. > :06:52.leave. Equally, our advice would be that it would be very difficult to
:06:53. > :07:11.grant an exception to one occupational group.
:07:12. > :07:18.Good to have you on the programme. People have been commenting on this
:07:19. > :07:22.already on the Facebook pagd. If you want to be in touch, here are the
:07:23. > :07:24.details. any differently to other parents? Is
:07:25. > :07:29.the chief constable right to ask head teachers to make her staff a
:07:30. > :07:32.special case? Do you think `nyone should get preferential tre`tment on
:07:33. > :07:55.this one? In a moment: 70 years since these
:07:56. > :07:58.airmen died when their pland was shot down over Germany, thehr

:10:39. > :10:40.the NHS says has cost 14 people their lives over the past ydar

:10:47. > :10:57.of people are on the registdr, who do unfortunately die, their wishes
:10:58. > :11:00.are upheld and they go on and become donors. It is very important to join

:11:04. > :11:09.half a million people are But it's believed many more would

:11:15. > :11:29.four out of ten families sax no Nigel Burton knows just how
:11:30. > :11:42.vital donations can be. We found it easy. Martin was a very
:11:43. > :11:46.loving, caring child. He wanted to be a nurse, so we felt it w`s an
:11:47. > :11:54.easy decision. That may not be the case for everybody, so you need to
:11:55. > :11:59.set down and talk as a family. Half the family may go one way, be the
:12:00. > :12:05.make up another. Unless you talk about it, you won't know. It is
:12:06. > :12:08.hoped the renewed call for people to join the organ donation reghster,
:12:09. > :12:14.and to be more open about it, will save thousands more lives in the

:12:30. > :12:34.register. I asked why peopld are reluctant.
:12:35. > :12:37.I am not sure. Really, it is a family decision. They don't want to
:12:38. > :12:38.asked why people are reluctant.
:12:39. > :12:41.sign the register, they want the decision to be a natural ond, and
:12:42. > :12:45.most people in Wales, for example, wished to do so, but never get round
:12:46. > :12:48.to talk about it. So do famhlies need to talk more even though it is
:12:49. > :12:51.a difficult subject? Well, death is a difficult subject, of course.
:12:52. > :12:54.Organ donations save lives. It gives somebody else a chance. There are
:12:55. > :12:57.very real people waiting as we talk. Just in our part of the world alone,
:12:58. > :13:00.219 people waiting for transplants. Does it surprise you that wd don't
:13:01. > :13:03.do something that could savd lives? You're absolutely right, it is a
:13:04. > :13:06.cruel wait. Children can waht up to five years for a kidney. Solething
:13:07. > :13:10.needs to be done about it. The organ donor register is fine and there
:13:11. > :13:18.have been huge amounts of c`mpaigns, but it just doesn't do it, `nd it's
:13:19. > :13:27.not good enough. With the ndw system, if I or a family melber
:13:28. > :13:42.don't opt out, is it just straight presumption I have consented? Family
:13:43. > :13:54.members are important, so ilmediate family members will be constlted on
:13:55. > :13:59.the wishes of the deceased. The deceased could have changed their
:14:00. > :14:09.wishes very close to death. If the family are not there, the organs
:14:10. > :14:15.would not be taken. What wotld you say to those people watching who
:14:16. > :14:17.haven't made their intentions clear?, Please do. Sign up to the
:14:18. > :14:22.register, talk to your family. The cruel wait people have is alarming.
:14:23. > :14:28.Why not write to the Prime Linister and ask the Prime Minister to change
