:00:31. > :00:33.Good evening. As a cull of badgers moves a step closer, we will have
:00:33. > :00:34.reaction to today's announcement from farmers, a welfare group and
:00:34. > :00:37.from Westminster. Also tonight...
:00:37. > :00:42.Atandards in care homes - staff warn care quality inspectors they
:00:42. > :00:45.do not always get a true impression of what's going on.
:00:45. > :00:49.The Government has provisionally sanctioned a cull of badgers to
:00:49. > :00:52.tackle rising TB rates in cattle. Farmers have campaigned for the
:00:52. > :00:55.move for many years, whilst badger groups say this is the worst
:00:56. > :00:59.possible news. The proposals are that a pilot will be carried out in
:00:59. > :01:02.two areas in England where badgers will be culled. The plans are that
:01:02. > :01:06.farmers and landowners could be given licenses for the controlled
:01:06. > :01:11.shooting of badgers. Bovine TB cost the tax payer more than �63 million
:01:11. > :01:17.last year in England. And it is estimated that figure could rise to
:01:17. > :01:20.�1 billion over the next ten years. Ministers say they will have a wide
:01:20. > :01:28.ranging consultation over how the cull could take place. Our
:01:28. > :01:35.Environment Correspondent Adrian The South West has some of the
:01:35. > :01:39.worst levels of bovine TV and the whole country. Many farmers such as
:01:39. > :01:43.David Horton in Devon, have become frustrated at the continued loss of
:01:44. > :01:49.animals to the disease, despite a strict testing regime.
:01:49. > :01:55.It does not take a lot of common sense in my opinion to see the only
:01:55. > :01:59.way of tidying this job up in our animals is to take her mad. Surely
:01:59. > :02:03.to goodness the only way to tackle it in the wildlife is to take out
:02:03. > :02:07.some of these animals that are suffering in world life. It would
:02:08. > :02:13.not only be good for us as stock keepers, but it surely has to be
:02:13. > :02:20.good for wildlife, also. So, what might happen in Devon, one
:02:20. > :02:27.of the worst DB hot spots? The area would have to cover at least 150
:02:27. > :02:33.squad -- 150 square kilometres. Badgers would be shot, and it is
:02:33. > :02:37.hoped that would reduce the spread of bovine TB. Some scientists have
:02:37. > :02:42.warned that badgers might get away from the area and the danger is
:02:42. > :02:48.that could help spread the disease. We are going to follow scientific
:02:48. > :02:52.evidence on this, and it has completely ignored what its chief
:02:52. > :02:56.experts have said. -- the Government is saying it is going to
:02:56. > :03:03.follow scientific evidence. Badger culls are cruel, it will not get
:03:03. > :03:08.rid of TB and they will have to do a U-turn and change their mind.
:03:08. > :03:15.The South could be one of two trial areas for what is being described
:03:15. > :03:25.as a controlled cull. Devon already has the prospect of a vaccine trial
:03:25. > :03:29.
:03:29. > :03:33.due to start soon on National Trust The Government's latest
:03:33. > :03:36.consultation is about the controlled shooting of badgers and
:03:36. > :03:41.how that process will be monitored. There could be a call by next
:03:41. > :03:47.summer. I am strongly minded to a low controlled culling carried out
:03:47. > :03:52.by groups of farmers and landowners as part of a science Wed and
:03:52. > :03:55.carefully managed policy of badger control. It is worth reminded --
:03:55. > :04:00.remembering not all farmers want a call.
:04:00. > :04:05.Personally, I don't think it will work. Any infected badgers around
:04:05. > :04:11.get forced into wider areas, and at my biggest concern is the public
:04:11. > :04:15.backlash. The vaccination of badgers may yet
:04:16. > :04:20.yield a useful results, but a colt looks likely in the South West,
:04:21. > :04:30.possibly as soon as next summer. Earlier I spoke to Jack Reedy from
:04:31. > :04:31.
:04:31. > :04:34.the Badger Trust. I asked him if the trust was now working on the
:04:34. > :04:37.basis of when a badger cull would happen, rather than if. I do not
:04:37. > :04:40.think it will happen at all, because what is being proposed is
:04:40. > :04:45.such a mess I cannot see any meaningful conclusions being drawn
:04:45. > :04:50.from it. Do you think the Government have given themselves a
:04:50. > :04:57.little wiggle room? I do not know. What they have done is to bring in
:04:57. > :05:03.a completely new method of killing badgers which has not been tried
:05:03. > :05:08.before, whose results are born to be a sense -- assessed within a
:05:08. > :05:14.very short space of time, and what the conclusions will be, Lord knows.
:05:14. > :05:20.I did think they will have any meaningful effect on the incidents
:05:20. > :05:24.of bovine TB if and when they ever get put into operation. Nothing in
:05:24. > :05:28.certain today, we cannot glean anything from today's announcement,
:05:28. > :05:31.but it has since been suggested at trial areas will be in the South
:05:31. > :05:36.West. If it happens here, how do you
:05:36. > :05:42.think that will work alongside, for example, the work of the National
:05:42. > :05:45.Trust there are vaccinating badgers?
:05:45. > :05:50.The could quite easily worked side- by-side. The advantage of
:05:50. > :05:53.vaccination is that it does not does dubbed the population. That is
:05:53. > :06:00.the great danger with this particular disease, but if you
:06:00. > :06:06.start up the population -- that if you start up the population, you
:06:06. > :06:12.run the risk of the disease spreading more quickly than it
:06:12. > :06:22.We can cross live now to our correspondent Simon Hall who is in

:06:29. > :06:39.With me this evening are a couple talking about what the Government

:07:39. > :07:45.due to TB. You have got what you want today,
:07:45. > :07:49.from the Farmers' Union, but there is still no guarantee it will work.
:07:49. > :07:54.It has worked elsewhere in Gloucestershire and Dorset before,
:07:54. > :07:59.and it is working in Ireland, where it reduced DB by 30 %. This is a
:07:59. > :08:03.massive issue for all animals. We have to do something about it and
:08:03. > :08:06.this is the right first step, but it is only that.
:08:06. > :08:11.Farmers tell me they will be digestive all the Government has
:08:11. > :08:14.had to say about the details. We can cross live the Westminster
:08:14. > :08:18.now to our political editor Martyn Oates.
:08:18. > :08:22.A significant step towards a colt today, but still not a final
:08:22. > :08:25.approval. Nor, today looked as if it could be
:08:25. > :08:34.finally drawing a line under the uncertainty over whether there
:08:34. > :08:39.would be a Kohl or not. There had been a ruler -- a remark around
:08:39. > :08:45.Westminster about it. This is what the farming minister had to say to
:08:45. > :08:51.me a little earlier. Do day is not the final decision.
:08:51. > :08:56.Today we are still strongly minded that we believe he does the right
:08:56. > :09:02.boy -- the right way forward. We have seen fairly significant
:09:02. > :09:07.changes to that which we consulted on nine months ago. We are having
:09:07. > :09:13.to consult again on those changes. There are a lot of other questions,
:09:13. > :09:17.if those pilot badger culls did take place, then where? The
:09:17. > :09:20.minister did say he would be surprised if one did not happen in
:09:20. > :09:23.the South West at least. The new consultation closes in September
:09:23. > :09:32.but he was not prepared to see how quickly the Government would
:09:32. > :09:37.respond. This move towards a pilot badger cull chains with the Lib Dem

:23:37. > :23:44.yourself it is July and we normally expect reasonable weather in July.
:23:44. > :23:47.It has been quite cool, as Victoria pointed out. There is more wet
:23:47. > :23:52.weather in the forecast, and that will arrive tomorrow morning. It is
:23:52. > :23:58.a bit quicker coming in tomorrow, which is perhaps better news for
:23:58. > :24:05.Airday, because it means it will leave quicker. We have a lump of
:24:06. > :24:09.cloud coming into the western parts of Ireland. That develops into an

:25:05. > :25:10.think over the next couple of days, northerly winds means the south
:25:10. > :25:13.coast should be relatively quiet, and also the best place to be if
:25:13. > :25:17.you want sunshine. There are holes in the cloud and sunshine is
:25:17. > :25:22.getting through every now and then. Overnight tonight, clear skies for
:25:22. > :25:28.a time, but later in the night out to the west it all changes as more
:25:28. > :25:36.rain sweeps in, giving us a damp end to the night particularly
:25:36. > :25:40.across Cornwall and westerly parts of Devon. Temperatures up to 12 or
:25:40. > :25:44.13 Celsius, no lower than that tonight. The rain will move through
:25:44. > :25:48.steadily and by the time we get into the afternoon it has moved
:25:48. > :25:53.away, brighter skies to end the day and hopefully the cloud will lift
:25:53. > :25:59.to a load the flying displays. Temperatures tomorrow, struggling
:25:59. > :26:05.because of the rain, maybe up to 17 Celsius, but for most of us 15 or
