Attack on a beach. And scientists rush to antartica to catch a glimpse of a giant iceberg before it melts. Good evening and welcome to bbc news. The deputy chief executive of oxfam has resigned following allegations the charity tried to cover up the full details of a sex scandal in haiti involving its aid workers. Senior figures in the organisation have been meeting the International Development secretary, offering assurances over the future handling of Sexual Misconduct allegations. The charity has been asked to produce all its evidence relating to what happened during the humanitarian relief effort after the haitian earthquake in 2010. Our special correspondent lucy manning has the details. Haitis red light district. Prostitution is illegal here, but that didnt stop some of oxfams staff. The charity now admitting it knew knew about concerns about its team and prostitutes, not just in haiti, but also in chad and that nothing was done. Widza bryant worked in Human Resources in haiti for oxfam from 2009 for three years. She says she flagged concerns and was ignored. There was a lot of rumours on the ground about management and leaders exploiting the locals, sexually and in other ways, to get jobs, and to have good standing. These were ongoing rumours that would come to me through the drivers and other employees. So on many occasions i would share those rumours with my boss. Now 0xfams deputy chief executive has resigned. Penny lawrence was Programme Director when the prostitution allegations were made and ignored. She said, i am ashamed that happened on my watch and i take full responsibility. The actions of senior 0xfam employee Roland Van Hauwermeiren in chad and haiti were never properly dealt with. At that time the use of prostitutes was not explicitly contrary to 0xfams code of conduct. Bringing 0xfam into disrepute, in any way abusing people who may have been beneficiaries of course was. So there was an exploration of how the organisation should respond, but we didnt act on it and more significantly, because there were not formal complaints, we allowed him to move on to another post, and that was our failing. 0xfams bosses were called in to meet ministers this morning with questions over the £32 million the charity receives from the government. Ministers here at the department for International Development know British Charities do good work overseas, but with 0xfam only telling half the story of what happened with its staff in haiti, it has now put pressure on the entire Charity Sector. 0xfam says it investigated 87 allegations of sexual abuse or exploitation last year, and save the children says it looked into 31 cases of Sexual Misconduct, where half the people were fired. Christian aid said it had two cases, one of which was reported to the Charity Commission. I dont think anyone can say in good faith, operating in an environment like ours, that we can eliminate all risk as a matter of 100 certainty. What we can do is put on 100 best effort to keep these people out of our organisation. The Charity Commission says it receives reports of about 1000 incidents involving safeguarding from charities each year, but a culture of cover up is not the image charities want. Following her meeting with the charity, the secretary of state for International Development, penny mordaunt, said 0xfam assured her they were co operating fully with authorities in countries where abuse had been reported. Penny mordaunt said. Andy hillier is editor of third sector magazine and joins me in the studio. Thank you for coming in. This unit, do you think it is an effective a nswer to do you think it is an effective answer to the problem . do you think it is an effective answer to the problem . I think it is answer to the problem . I think it is a good way forward. It is a ethical situation and it needs a response difficult situation. And this question of the charity looking at all the seth gidding practices. This took place a long time ago, surely safeguarding should have been put in place in the years since. The charity has made it clear that the processes of it had in place are stronger than those that were in place in 2011, but clearly the question has to be asked, where they Strong Enough and are the ones currently in place, do they need revising . And the other question, do they have enough protection for whistle blowers and add a listening to them properly . Of course, there are, there should be mechanisms in each charity and more broadly in the Charity Sector for people to come forward when they have concerns. We are not sure what has happened in this instance, whether those co nsta nts were brought this instance, whether those constants were brought forward more broadly, we need to wait for the commission to look into this. And how damaging to think this will be to both the reputation of big charities, particularly 0xfam, and theirfundraising . Charities, particularly 0xfam, and their fundraising . I think this is a real challenge and i am deeply concerned about the effect this will have on the Charity Sector as a whole. What we have seen with previous crisis, going back to 2015 when we had the fund raising crisis, is it knocks and affects public trust. Last year we saw a bit of a return in public trust in the Charity Sector and that was a result, we believe, because charities were out of the headlines and doing their good work. When we get negative headlines, it affects public trust and we have got lots of negative headlines. And there still is very much astonishing distressing and puzzling to so many people who donate to oxfam and other big charities. How this could have happened at all. Still the answer today, even after the meeting with the secretary of state, seem incomplete. Yes, i think this will run for quite a while. There are quite a lot of questions that remain unanswered. The challenge is you will reflect back on something that is seven years old, so it will take time to get to the bottom of it and i think the charity needs to be open and transparent over it and the regulator needs to talk about it and discuss what it was told at the time and investigate more fully the accusations made back in 2011. Thank you so much forjoining us. 0ur correspondent will grant is in the haitian capital port au prince. What is the response today there . What is the response today there . M is increasingly one of angry at. When the allegations first came out sabha to emerge, it was greeted with a sense of resignation that these arejust details of a sense of resignation that these are just details of abuse that happen with Big International institutions in haiti. There is the symbol of the Un Peacekeeping force a lap having allegedly had a child abuse cases among their ranks. The public here i used to abuse on their soil, but gradually it is the details emerging, it is hardening into a clear anger. You can see it on social media and people we have been speaking to including former employees, angry it was allowed to happen. What has emerged is that some of those involved in chad may have been involved in haiti and could have been prevented. Have been involved in haiti and could have been preventedlj have been involved in haiti and could have been prevented. I think the point is this is the poorest country in the americas, the people are here to help and help at a critical time after the 2010 at earthquake, so that is what has angered the people here broadly, is that instead of helping the most vulnerable, there was a culture of abuse that took advantage of some of the most Vulnerable People. There is huge work for 0xfam to do in terms of international reputation, but here in haiti, there is a great deal of work they need to do if they ever expect to recover the good name that they once had here for the work that they once had here for the work that they did do. There are lots of people try to do good work. Thank you forjoining us. And well find out how this story and many others are covered in tomorrows front pages at 10 40 this evening in the papers. 0ur guestsjoining me tonight are martin bentham, Home Affairs Editor at the london Evening Standard and the times columnistjenni russell. Three british tourists killed in a Helicopter Crash in the grand canyon have been named by police in america. Becky dobson, jason hill and stuart hill died on saturday evening. Three other britons and the pilot were injured. 0ur north america correspondent james cook reports. This is the moment a dream holiday for three british couples turned into a nightmare. The helicopter came down just before sunset in rugged terrain near the west rim of the grand canyon. Explosions and fire followed, with three passengers apparently trapped inside. They were stuart hill, who was celebrating his 30th birthday, and his girlfriend becky dobson, a receptionist from worthing in west sussex. She was 27. His brotherjason hill who was a lawyer in Milton Keynes also died. He was 32 years old. His girlfriend, jennifer barham, survived. Also on board were newlyweds jonathan udall and ellie milward, seen here on the left at their wedding with becky and stuart. Theirfriends had been saving up for their holiday for a year. All three who died had been attending worthing college. As ex alumni of the college, they had gone on with their passions to enjoy their young lives, going through their careers as they had wanted, and to get to this stage in their lives and die so young, it is just devastating. In the minutes after the crash passengers and crew from other helicopters in the area rushed to help. They included a nurse, katie kineally. When we finally got some medical equipment down there i started helping with putting in iv lines, then another crew came down with medication, pain medication, so i started administering that, gave them fluids to help prevent them from going into shock, kept a really close eye on them and did what i could do. A dust storm meant rescue teams had to walk to the site using night vision goggles. It was more than eight hours before the survivors could be taken to hospital. We could not extract everybody from the crash site until two oclock this morning. High winds, dust conditions, rugged terrain and, as you know, when you fly in treacherous conditions like this, you have to have special training and special people. The grand canyon is attractive because it is untamed, drawing visitors from all over the world. The tour Company Papillon airways flies around 600,000 people every year. This crash, involving a eurocopter ec130, is the firms second fatal accident here. The three british survivors and the pilot are being treated at this hospital in las vegas. All four are said to be in critical condition. The cause of the crash in the canyon, and the deadly fire, is not yet known. Theresa may and the irish Prime Minister, have been meeting Northern Irelands political leaders, amid speculation that a deal to restore the devolved government at stormont, could be close. But negotiations between the democratic unionists and sinn fein have stalled several times in recent months, since the power sharing executive collapsed more than a year ago. Heres our ireland correspondent chris page. His report contains flash photography. The Prime Minister began her visit to belfast at a place which was recently the scene of an unexpected victory, hundreds ofjobs had been under threat at the aircraft manufacturer bombardier. They are safe now after the firm won a trade dispute against boeing in the us. But mrs may came here looking to help find another breakthrough. Northern ireland has been without a devolved government for 13 months. Several rounds of negotiations have failed to break the deadlock between the Democratic Unionist Party and sinn fein. Mrs may and the irish Prime Minister leo varadkar told the parties they were committed to bringing back devolution. After the meetings, stormont politicians struck a positive note. Good progress has been made, we will continue to work to look for more progress. And its about finding an accommodation that recognises the need to respect all languages and all cultures in Northern Ireland. We dont believe that there is anything now that is insurmountable left to resolve. There are matters of clarity and some detail. The main Sticking Point has been whether there should be a new law to protect and promote the Irish Language. For speakers of the tongue, irish is about identity, culture and history, and they believe it needs legal recognition. It needs equality and it needs to be on the same level as gaelic in scotland and welsh in wales. And obviously english here as well. It needs to be on an equal footing with the rest and thats all were asking. But in unionist areas there is suspicion and even hostility towards the idea. Here in Shankill Road in west belfast people are strongly opposed to an Irish Language law. Wouldnt have my children going down schools, you know, learning it, letting the kids learn it. This is british, it isnt irish. Always stick to british. This is a british country, not an irish country. I think its terrible. I think our crews letting us down. That strength of feeling shows how sensitive and symbolic the issue of the Irish Language has become during this long and deep political crisis but there are other disagreements separating the parties including whether same sex marriage should be allowed in Northern Ireland and how the hundreds of unsolved killings from the troubles should be dealt with. The power sharing executive has been in the deep freeze as the issue of the irish border has become one of the most significant in the brexit negotiations. The stormont stalemate isnt over, but there are signs relations are warming. Chris page, bbc news, belfast. Speaking at a News Conference the Prime Minister theresa may said she hopes an executive in Northern Ireland could be up and running very soon. I have had full and frank conversations with the five parties, i also met the taoiseach. And while some differences remain, i believe that it is possible to see the basis of an agreement here. There is the basis of an agreement, and it should be possible to see an executive up and running in Northern Ireland very soon. And the dup and sinn fein have been working very hard to close the remaining gaps. But i would also like to recognise the contribution of other parties here in Northern Ireland too. What i am clear about is that we are all fully committed to doing everything we can to support this process, and as far as westminster is concerned, we stand ready to legislate for the re establishment of an executive as soon as possible after an agreement. The headlines on bbc news. 0xfams deputy chief executive penny lawrence resigns over the sex scandal involving aid workers in haiti. Talks in belfast to restore devolved government end without agreement, but irish political leaders and theresa may say progress has been made. The three britons killed in a Helicopter Crash in the grand canyon have been named. Three other britons and the pilot were injured when the helicopter went down. Sport now and for a full round up, from the bbc sport centre, heres hugh ferris. Good evening. We will start with a match that will prove crucial for antonio conte. They have lost the last two matches 75th in the table, coming up to 20 minutes gone at sta mford coming up to 20 minutes gone at stamford bridge. It is still goalless. Plenty of chances, many of them are from west brom. 0livier giroud stars for chelsea after his £80 million move from arsenal. Sturridge, he is off injured after three minutes at stamford bridge. You can follow on radio 5 live. The weathers already played havoc in pyeongchang, and despite postponements of two major events already, one that did happen today did so after a delay and amid some controversy. The womens snowboard slopestyle went ahead after an hours delay, and nearly all the athletes fell at some point numerous complaints from them, teams and commentators as to why it went ahead. One of them to tumble in the vicious cross winds was great britains aimee fuller, who finished 17th after a heavy crash on her second run. Asi as i was pouring into the gym, i thought i had it, and then i felt disgust and it was like riding into a wind tunnel. It is not what i expected and how i had planned and how i visualised four years of prep work to go into today and i do not think it was a true show of womens slopestyle, which is a shame for our sport. Jamie anderson of the United States champion four years ago won the gold. Managing those conditions well with a winning score of 83. 00. In sochi last time out, her winning run was 95. 25. Highlighting the difference in conditions in pyeongchang. Canada won the Team Figure Skating gold, beating the olympic athletes from russia who took silver. With the United States claiming bronze thanks to the brilliance of mirai nagasu. She became only the third woman to land a triple axel at the Winter Olympics an incredibly difficult move and she went on to nail eight more triple jumps. Lets have a look at the other medals that have been won today. Lara dahlmeier of germany made history in the biathlon, winning10 kilometre pursuit title with a near flawless shooting performance. Shes the first woman to win the sprint and pursuit double, after picking up herfirst gold on saturday. Frances Martin Fourcade has won the mens12. 5 kilometre pursuit. He was already his countrys most decorated winter 0lympian. This brings his tally of golds to three, and takes him level with record holder, jean claude killy, who dominated skiing in the 1960s. Canadas Mikael Kingsbury is the mens moguls champion. Thats the second gold today for the nation. Hes dominated the event since winning silver in sochi four years ago, with 13 straight world cup wins coming into this games. Hes now added 0lympic gold to his haul. Ireen wust became the most successful dutch 0lympian of all time. She won the womens1500m speed skating title. Its her tenth games medal, which also meant she became the most successful 0lympic speed skater. And in the womens ski jump, favourite maren lundby won gold with a massive finaljump of 110 metres. She held her nerve on the last leap to win gold by 1a points. Its norways second gold of the games their first in womens ski jumping. Irelands Robbie Henshaw has been ruled out of the rest of the six nations. He dislocated his shoulder while scoring his second try during irelands bonus point win over italy in dublin. Henshaw has already undergone an operation on his right shoulder but will not recover in time to play a further part in the tournament. Thats all the sport for now. Ill have more for you in sportsday at 10 30. It is still goalless between chelsea and west brom. Thank you. In south africa, leaders of the ruling anc party are still meeting to decide the fate of president jacob zuma. Hes been resisting calls to stand down, but over the weekend the partys new leader Cyril Ramaposa said the question of his position would be finalised today. Tourist flights from the uk to tunisia will resume tomorrow, two and half years after 30 british holiday makers were killed in a terror attack at a beach resort. A travel ban later imposed by the uk was lifted last summer, and now thomas cook will resume flights from gatwick, manchester and birmingham. 0ur security correspondent frank gardner, has travelled to tunisia, to assess the measures taken to reassure visitors. Tunis by night, and a National Guard unit prepares to raid a suspected terrorist hideout. Their commander tells us they know of 500 islamist extremists living in just three Square Kilometres here. Well, theyve just gone into a house here. We can hear some shouts. Were in a tiny little backstreet, and theyre looking for members of an isis cell that has been in libya, they suspect, so the whole street is flooded with these armed National Guard soldiers. Three years ago on this beach near sousse, an isis gunman shot dead 38 people, 30 of them british. Now, tunisia is getting training from royal navy instructors in maritime security, while net Police Detectives have been training up hotel staff. At four key airports, British Aviation experts have installed new screening equipment, so i asked britains ambassador, how safe is it now . Well, no country is 100 safe, as we saw with the tragic attacks in london and manchester last year, but it is safer here than it was in 2015 because the tunisians capability has improved. In the resort town of hammamet, where thomas cook is taking the first returning british tourists, i asked the Hotel Manager what precautions hes taking. We have around 60 cameras all around the hotel. The exterior cameras are all monitored 24 hours by people behind the screens. But tunisia sits in a dangerous neighbourhood. Across this border, libya is in chaos, and isis has bases. The manchester bomber trained in libya, and so did the sousse gunman. Back in the capital, tunis, the night raid yields results. Suspects were arrested and will now face trial. Tunisia has made huge progress against terrorism, but if its tourist industry is to recover fully, it will need to stay vigilant. Frank gardner, bbc news, tunisia. The independents travel editor simon calderjoins me in the studio. It is your assessment of the situation . The tunisian authorities have been saying for over a year asking when the british are coming back, we are safe. We have to be guided by the Foreign Office advice. Until lastjuly, guided by the Foreign Office advice. Until last july, they were guided by the Foreign Office advice. Until lastjuly, they were unhappy with the state of security. Personally i would head back to tunisia tomorrow and i would take my family. There are risks, more pervasive in tunisia than some other countries, but overall the risks of being harmed are extremely low. We saw in the report the extreme security measures that are being taken in this very important and delicate matter of getting british tourists back to tunisia, somewhere they have not been able to go to for nearly three years. The more the tourists go back there, the more it is an attractive target for terrorists. There is a lot to be said for that argument. However, there is a counterargument that says there is a counterargument that says the conditions for fostering terrorism are pretty much exactly as tunisia has been for the last 2. 5 yea rs, tunisia has been for the last 2. 5 years, which is you lose a vast numbers of jobs, many years, which is you lose a vast numbers ofjobs, many hundreds of thousands of peoples livelihoods have gone, therefore people are ripe for indoctrination and tourism is pa rt for indoctrination and tourism is part of the solution rather than raising another potential target, andi raising another potential target, and i am more persuaded by the i commend. And i suppose for tunisia, it isa commend. And i suppose for tunisia, it is a critical moment. If it works now, and security is demonstrated to be good, then they have got a good winter is a season potentially ahead. Thomas cook is only going in with three flights a week, which will double from may, when the biggest tourist operator is going in with four flies. We will maybe see by the end of the year 4000 british people going on package holidays. It will be among those people a lot of people who have had great holidays in tunisia, desperate to go back, and the more people that go back and say it was terrific, felt perfectly safe, the better fortune say it was terrific, felt perfectly safe, the betterfortune is the. But as we have seen time and again, vigilance required, and sometimes thatis vigilance required, and sometimes that is not enough. And the mention of libya, completely different story. The big problem with tunisia is it has a long, leaky frontier with a failed state and it will a lwa ys with a failed state and it will always make it more of an issue than perhaps more familiar and closer tourist destinations. But as they say, i wish i was on one of those planes going over tomorrow. Thank you. We have breaking news coming in on the top story. The difficulties of 0xfa m the top story. The difficulties of 0xfam after the Sexual Misconduct allegations. The Charity Commission has launched a statutory enquiry into 0xfam amid the concerns that it may not have fully and frankly disclosed all details about those allegations relating to events in hide the haiti. More on that later. 0ne hide the haiti. More on that later. One last story before the top of the hour. Vanessa trump, the wife of the president s son, donald trumer, has been taken to a new york hospital, after she opened mail containing an unidentified white powder. The substance was later determined to be non hazardous. Two other people, including mrs trumps mother, were also assessed by medics. The mail was addressed to her husband. Now time for a look at the weather. Good evening. Theres some snow in the forecast for the next 24 hours enough to be disruptive in places, i suspect. Some rain further south and then ahead of that band of rain and snow, some strong and gusty winds wind gust of 50 and 60, possibly 70 mph in exposed spots down towards the south west. The snow moving through Northern Ireland and parts of north west england, scotland, even as far south as north wales. Especially, but not exclusively over Higher Ground, and temperatures close enough to freezing in the north to give the risk for some ice. So whichever way you slice it, tomorrow morning could bring some commuting issues. Snow and ice, wind and rain as well, the risk of some travel disruption. As we go on through the day, we push this band of rain in the south, snow across parts of the north and we move it further east. Behind that, the skies will start to brighten. We will see some spells of sunshine developing. Wintry showers, though, packing in across the north west. And generally speaking, it is going to be a cold feeling day, with top temperatures of four to seven degrees. This is bbc news, our latest headlines this evening. 0xfams deputy chief executive penny lawrence has resigned, after a sex scandal involving aid workers. The Charity Commission has launched a statutory inquiry into the charity. Talks in belfast to restore devolved government end without agreement but irish political leaders and theresa may say progress has been made. And while some difference remain, i believe that it is possible to see the basis of an agreement here there is the basis of an agreement here, and it should be possible to see an executive up and running in Northern Ireland very soon. The three britons killed in a Helicopter Crash in the grand canyon have been named; three other britons and the pilot were injured when the helicopter went down. The future of south africas president , jacob zuma, hangs in the balance, as the governing anc party meets to discuss next steps. Friends and family are searching for a scottish man whos gone missing in hamburg, after a stag party. Liam colgan was last seen in the early hours of saturday morning, in a bar in the city. Hed organised the trip for family and friends, ahead of his brothers wedding next month. Catrina renton has the details.

His friends le saux him at 1 30am in the riether barn area of the city. We know that his friend betty had died on friday evening, so we mightjust betty had died on friday evening, so we might just not betty had died on friday evening, so we mightjust not have heard from him overnight, but it was released range when he didnt turn up the next morning, and it became increasingly concerned when he didnt turn up for the five a side football match we had planned for one oclock on saturday afternoon. That is when we knew something wasnt right. Some of liams family and friends have stayed in the city, hoping to help trace him. German police say they are planning to launch a Public Appeal for information. Back in scotland, liams friends are doing everything they can. They want as many people as possible to share this page on social media, hoping someone, somewhere now something. Social media, hoping someone, somewhere now somethingm social media, hoping someone, somewhere now something. It is totally out of character, that is why we need peoples help. Dont assume that this is just a guy on a night out that has not come back because he is on some kind of mad night out. That is not him. The wedding is in three weeks time. Liams family and friends just want him home. Up to 16,000 passengers have had their travel plans disrupted after londons city airport was closed for the day because of an unexploded Second World War bomb. The 500 kilogramme device was discovered in the thames, close to the runway, and has now been moved to a different part of the king george the fifth dock. Police advised some nearby residents to leave the area, but theyve since been given the all clear. Grounded. Every single flight out of london city airport, following the discovery of a world war ii bomb in water nearby. The 500 kilograms german device was found by divers at king george v dock during work to expand the airport at around 5am yesterday morning. By 10pm, the airport was shut. Efforts were made to advise passengers they could not travel today but still we met some arriving at the airport who have not heard the news. Now we tried to go to the airport but we are informed 110w to the airport but we are informed now that there is no way inside, because, i dont know. The unusual sight of a completely empty runway. Flights normally would be taking off and landing around every half an hour, but 261 have been cancelled, some flights have been moved to neighbouring airports southend and sta nsted, neighbouring airports southend and stansted, but still widespread disruption for passengers. Today, the airports ceo apologised for the thousands affected. Yes, there has been a lot of disruption, very u nfortu nate been a lot of disruption, very unfortunate and we apologise for that. However, we are working very closely with the met and the navy felt it was the right thing to do, the responsible thing to do, to effectively close the airport and have this device, the unexploded bomb, removed from the dock. The disruption caused wasnt limited to air travel. A 214 metre cord and was put in place by the authorities, affecting the dlr with some roads also cordoned off. The exclusion zone meant residents were advised to leave their home and move to emergency accommodation, should they wish to. If it was that that they would have moved us all out commune out, so i dont think it is that major, because they have obviously got it under control, otherwise they would move us all out, and being in london, world war ii bombs, you are going to find them wherever they will be digging up stuff. Indeed, thousands of bombs were dropped on london during the blitz. They do turn up from time to time. This one was discovered in brent last year. The police and the royal navy are working to remove the latest discovery. Said there is a lot of ordnance unfortunately that remains from previous wars. Complacency certainly does not exist within the military, and the royal navy ensures that every device, every bomb and every humane yechun is treated in the same way, to therefore ensure every munition, to make sure the government dunn the public are severed all times. Thousands more will be hopeful the airport is up and running by tomorrow morning. Lets get more on the future of the south african president jacob zuma , leaders of the ruling anc party are still locked in talks about his future. We can now speak to richard dowden, journalist and director of the royal african society. Thank you forjoining us. What is taking so long . I think at the heart of it is south africas constitution, which is very complex, and very, very well balanced. It was negotiated at that time in the 90s, when cyril opposer was the chief negotiator for this new constitution, which make sure that world government can act, at the same time there is no room for any corruption or anything at all. Now we have a president in south africa who is known to be very corrupt. How do you get rid of him . That is what the constitutional lawyers are working over at the moment and it is really building up because on the zist really building up because on the 21st of february, somebody has to read the state of the nation address, and put down the budget. So it has to be resolved by then. And i suppose Cyril Ramaphosas own credibility is now on the line because he has said this will be finalised today. Yes, deadlines have been missed several times already. And it may still happen today. But i think we are really running out of time. Essentially, zoom and knows what he has done, he has been in collaboration with the gupta family, who are regarded as pretty corrupt. He himself has enriched himself hugely, and it is now that he wants a deal way doesnt get prosecuted for this. He has even suggested having an interim president , where his wife, his ex wife, maybe he thinks he can then manipulate her and escape completely. But i dont think that will happen, and i think there will be a moment when he has finally run out of cards to play. But he is a very tough, very intelligent, very clever player, and when he turns to a populist vision of south africa for black south africa, that is when it gets dangerous. He may then try to say that this constitution is not suitable, or Something Like that, and stirupa suitable, or Something Like that, and stir up a populist anger. So i think he probably still has some cards to play. And as the new leader of the party, Cyril Ramaphosa, does he have the political flexibility and cunning to handle zuma . Well, when Nelson Mandela came out of jail, three people were appointed to carry his bag for him, and give him his speech every day. One was tar bode mbeki, who succeeded him, one was Cyril Ramaphosa and the other was Cyril Ramaphosa and the other was jacob zuma. And we all watched to see who would give him the speech, or who would be closest to him that day, and mandela kept switching them around. I think they have now had their time, and i think it is now definitely time for Cyril Ramaphosa, who i must say, of all three of them, i think is the most outstanding. He was an extraordinary leader of the strikes in 1987, he was the miners leader, and he com pletely was the miners leader, and he completely outmanoeuvred the big mining companies, and then he negotiated the new south africa. He was the main negotiator. So i think his time has finally come. Thank you. The latest now on our top story the Charity Commission says it is holding a statuatory inquiry into 0xfam, following allegations of sexual abuse by aid workers. The Commission Says it has concerns that 0xfam may not have fully and frankly disclosed all the details in 2011, when the alleged abuse took place. Earlier today, 0xfams deputy chief executive, penny lawrence, resigned. Paul nolan has worked as a global safeguarding adviser to a number of International Aid organisations, and hejoins us now on International Aid organisations, and he joins us now on a webcam. International aid organisations, and hejoins us now on a webcam. Thank you for talking to us, what is your assessment of where we stand tonight . I think it is a very sad situation. Unfortunately, though, it is not something that is a complete surprise to me. The sector as a whole, International Aid and an element agencies unfortunately have to deal with this, so hearing about the situation in 0xfam is u nfortu nately not the situation in 0xfam is unfortunately not something i am com pletely unfortunately not something i am completely shocked by. And you have worked in safeguarding standards. I think one of the striking thing for many people unfamiliar with the field is how almost nonexistent the safeguarding standards after many of these large organisations working with very Vulnerable People abroad. I think it is interesting that that seems to be completely analysis absent from the analysis for now. There are lots of very clear and very robust frameworks that organisations have to work too. And some of those are set in the uk. The Charity Commission has very clear requirements of any organisation working with vulnerable beneficiaries, and internationally as well, there are un frameworks, International Standards frameworks work within that said very clear parameters, in terms of conduct, the kind of safety and Protection Measures that organisations have to put in place. Then those things do get monitored. So it is surprising to hear the sense that this is com pletely to hear the sense that this is completely unregulated, and that there are no clear frameworks for people to work too. How, then, can these abuses take place . Well, thats always the challenge. There are very good systems whereby organisations have policies and codes of conduct. They train their staff. If you go into an organisation, you work in an emergency, you are subject to certain checks when it comes to recruitment, there is mandatory training, it is made very clear what the conduct expectations are. U nfortu nately, if the conduct expectations are. Unfortunately, if somebody is determined to go into a situation and abuse their position of trust, exploit the fact that they are working with very vulnerable populations, and there are very few checks and balances, in terms of local policing, for example, it is difficult. But can ijust interrupt you . Because that is kind of not situation here. We understand that there were whistle blowers, that allegations were made, that those allegations were made, that those allegations reached the top of the organisation, and yet still that particular country director was moved from chad, found himself in highly et, and the abuses continued. Exactly, i think that is the real nub of the issue and the learning that needs to be examined from this particular case. As i say, there are very good preventative measures most organisations deploy, and they do that very seriously and in a very committed way. If somebody then breaches those standards, they should feel the full force of the organisation. There should be a very clear response, people should be clear they can report those things, that they will be followed up, there will be an investigation. Staff should be suspended, they should not be left in posts or transferred anywhere, and if it is found there is misconduct, in terms of breaching organisational policies, criminal misconduct, this thing should be dealt with by the appropriate authorities. They should be reported and dealt with in a very. Thank you. The headlines now on bbc news.

The first pictures have been released of an iceberg, which has broken away from the Antarctic Ice sheet, and its four times the size of london. Scientists say theyre on an Urgent Mission to document the marine eco system of the continent, hidden for more than a hundred thousand years. 0ur science correspondent victoria gill has the details. A new perspective on a 6,000 square kilometre swathe of floating ice. So the iceberg is 150 kilometres long, 50 kilometres wide, and will be about 150 metres deep. You will be able to see the first 20 30 metres above the water, and Everything Else is underneath. The trillion tonne, a 68 iceberg is gradually drifting away from the antarctic continent and into the sea. Its these ice filled waters and the sea floor beneath them that scientists are now eager to explore. In the British Antarctic survey vessel, the james clark ross, a team will spend three weeks studying the marine life that has been locked away here for millennia. Theyve described it as a treacherous but Urgent Mission. There are likely to be new species discovered, as researchers seek out the creatures that make their home beneath the vast ice sheet. We have no idea whats living underneath these huge ice shelves. We assume it is animals that are specially adapted to life without green food and vegetarian, so we have a lot of scavengers and carnivores. So we expect animals like in the deep sea, that doesnt have light as well. But the team also hopes to understand the processes that caused the iceberg to break away. This could reveal more about just how this fragile, frozen wilderness at the bottom of the world will change as the climate warms. Victoria gill, bbc news.
