Radio Scotland travel and to Scotland where this evening tonight will bring further cloudy conditions and outbreaks of rain rain will linger across much of the north all the while another band of rain will soup into the south which would be rather persistent and heavy in nature it will be a breezy night generally with low as of $6.00 to $9.00 Sassy's for most and tomorrow a Met Office yellow warning for heavy rain is in place from 6 pm until midday on Sunday listening to b.b.c. Radio Scotland It's 8 minutes past 4 and this is news Dr tonight with Laura Maxwell our top story. A coroner looking into the London Bridge terror attacks says new laws are needed to ban the possession of extremist propaganda Mark lucrative terms highlighted a gap in the law which means it may be impossible for police or m I 5 to act on offensive material he also suggests improving facilities for translating communications received from foreign intelligence services who affairs correspondent Dominic Christianity has been giving me the details when you have a major inquest in England and Wales relating to a major disaster where there are questions asked about whether or not it could have been prevented the coroner is under a legal obligation to produce a report sent to the government and other public agencies in which he or she sets out measures or proposals and recommendations which they believe could help prevent future deaths Gnosis is an important legal report which then the public bodies concerned have to answer they have to give in a response and in this case they have to respond to the coroner Mark Luke raft q.c. The chief coroner by the 10th of January in relation to his 18 recommendations he makes 18 recommendations across government including the Home Office the Metropolitan Police m I 5 m I 6 and the emergency services as well what do you think are the main ones so I think it's really interesting how there's a lot of detail in here and I've just been speaking to. Somebody in who has concerns about the inquest and some of the findings what the coroner is trying to do is hit every area of concern on the night so I start with the most obvious one which is the protection of the bridge itself now what he says is the criteria the national criteria for protecting public spaces is weak and to Richard and what he means by that is there is a secret test within government of what types of crowded spaces counterterrorism specialists believe would be most vulnerable to a terrorist attack and if you think about that that's pretty. Obvious from some of the barriers which had been implemented at major political institutions to protect them from attack but the question about which other public spaces get protected is a little bit more ambiguous is a little bit a little bit more difficult for the public to understand what's going on what the coroner said is these be a bit of a rethink about how those tests are applied because in the case of London Bridge there was at least one senior police officer and an outside expert body who had concerns it could become a target but no barriers have been put in place and on the night of the attack on June 27th in the 3 attackers drove a van down the footpath across the bridge killing 2 predestines on their way to a further attack at the at the end of the bridge and if they'd been changes in how these locations are tested in the cesspit been rebuilt see perhaps the attack could have taken place and he's also calling for new laws to ban the possession of extremist propaganda Yes this is this is this is quite a complicated one more because it may come as a surprise to some people that the mere possession of terrorist material isn't a crime itself there are there are 2 crimes which you count for foul of such as disseminating terrorist publications so if I had for instance a magazine or propaganda produced by the Islamic state group I passed it to you I would be guilty of an offense there also the possession of documents which may be useful in terrorism such as a bomb making manual or something which kind of encourages insights terrorist acts that's an offense as well but just the mere possession is not an offense and the reason why that's important is because the ringleader occur but his phone was absolutely chock a full with extremist material and propaganda from news law makes dates group m I 5 knew this because they've been keeping a very careful watch on him for a number of years they have real concerns about his intentions but the mere possession itself isn't actually a crime and crack you see says maybe this is the time to make it a crime. And his thinking on that is we have recently legislated to make it an offense to possess extreme versions or poor of Griffy which involve harm even if the harm to 2 individuals is consensual and he's thinking maybe there is some change in the law that's for fill that gap which in turn would make make it easier for the police are moving more quickly against some key suspects where they're not sure what the suspect's actual intention is Yeah and you've mentioned that the government and the key agencies involved here have until early January to respond as have been any response though so far from the victims. Some of the victims have definitely welcome there so one of the leading lawyers for 6 of the families Helen Boniface from one of the big law firms involved in the inquest she says that the families they work with welcome these recommendations in particular warn on a proposal for instant reporting of vehicle rentals to the security services because a rented van used on the night they remain concerned about the response of some of the emergency services personnel on the night about how quickly they got to the injured and to the dying because of how the police were controlling what is called a hot zone through which only police officers are allowed to go now the coroner has tried to address that saying look I think these recent thinking about who is allowed into these so-called hot and warm zones in the middle of a terrorist incident resources suggest is actually that some place officers could receive really advanced medical training akin to battlefield tree are medicine so that even if it's too dangerous to get an ambulance or paramedic in from the from or from a hospital you could actually have police officers potentially helping save those lives Dominic cash money there are home affairs correspondent now the white goods company Whirlpool has been criticized for its slow response in replacing their faulty tumble dryer and for their nondisclosure practice which M.P.'s believe was to silence their customers. Said $800000.00 of its dryers are still in circulation and could be at high risk of causing fires the company though has reported that its campaign to fix or replace the machines has been 5 times more successful than usual product recalls where Gemma spar was at home with 3 of her children when her tumble dryer burst into flames in October last year when I heard that they were a been obliged by our think the government to do recall or refund I contacted them again and asked for refund once again another engine is but don't think it's fair that some people have been given their money back with what they've left in the house and their house a lot of other. Dangerous machinery now let's hear from Penny Walsh from electrical safety 1st it's incredibly concerning news that these dry as a still out there we completely support the report that's been issued by the select committee because they're very right to be using such strong language to criticize the way that well Paul have actually responded to this safety issue it's been dating back now to 2015 and it's astonishing that there are still so many out there potentially fire risks in people's houses their own interesting point of this was that the company had used non-disclosure agreements for people who had had issues absolutely and that again is something that we absolutely disagree with anything relating to safety is so important and to have transparency is vital so that people can learn from it people know what's going on so it's very worrying to know that as part of a settlement with people who have been affected that these N.G.'s have been put in place all the whirlpool does say that the campaign had to fix and or replace these machines has been 5 times more successful than its usual product recalls Yes I mean it is an absolutely mammoth task as we know this is a design that some 11 years old so there's a potentially there have been around 5000000 machines out there but I think the fact that there are still so many still out there shows really that the recall system at the. Moment is not fit for purpose and something we're calling for is a central recall database so that consumers know where to go if there's an issue if they want to check something people don't register their appliances so the problem is manufacturers can't reach them which is how you end up in this sort of situation but to the public not have to take some sort of blame for this because there can hardly be anybody out there no that doesn't know that there's an issue with these tumble dryer there's been a huge amount of media coverage but people don't realize why they need to register appliances and that's something I think has to change we would recommend registration a point of purchase but that's something that is a long way from coming in I think. There's not a lot really that we can do to force consumers to register products but I think we need to raise awareness there of the reason why they need to be doing it a lot of people think it's for an extended warranty or they're going to be absolutely spammed with marketing messages and it's not it's literally if there's a problem the manufacturer can get in touch have all the issues with these tumble dryer no been ironed out the new anyone new ones being manufactured will be absolutely fine it is important if anyone has one of these machines that they register them for the modification Whirlpool have a huge number of engineers who will come out and do that modification which will then make them safe to use and what sort of measures do you think that the company should be putting in place to ensure Product Safety. Every product has rigorous safety testing it's inevitably occasionally there will be a problem the thing to do is to act swiftly to issue a recall as soon as you know there's a problem it's not a case of sort of good p.r. To kind of cover it up I think you you need to be honest with your customers and get the information out there as quickly as possible I'm just wondering if tougher regulations would concentrate minds across the board for all electrical companies or whether actually the legislations there it's just needs better put into place better but there is a lot more that could be Don as I say we would like to see a centralized recall database I think the office for product safety and standards has a big part to play here in sort of protecting the public and doing more as you say to make manufacturers take the action necessary Pennie watch there from electrical safety 1st. News drive on b.b.c. Radio Scotland Let's get the headlines Nicholas Star Jones says she'll make a formal request for a 2nd independence referendum before Christmas regardless of who's prime minister a 2nd man has been charged in connection with the deaths of 39 migrant. Whose bodies were found in a lorry container in Essex and police have revealed they've written to the solicitors of the 2 people convicted of murdering a vulnerable teenager Margaret Fleming in an attempt to find where her body is which aren't with Susan Morrison and Louise human they're about 450 years ago our country was convulsed by waves of savage panics and purges leading to the judicial matter of thousands of our own citizens in Li women for crimes they not only didn't commit but which were impossible for anyone to commit new podcast from b.b.c. Radio Scotland this was somebody who could interfere with the crops could cause perhaps your family members to 2nd a whole range of things the idea is that which is someone who says I'm not going to have faith in God anymore my allegiance will instead be to God's great enemy of 04 and subscribe to what chant No on b.b.c. Sides. You're listening to b.b.c. Radio Scotland disses news Dr tonight with me Laura Maxwell It's 20 past 4 now scientists estimate around a quarter of the global pig population is expected to die as a result of the African swine fever epidemic the World Organization for Animal Health said the rapid spread of the disease to countries including China which has half the world's paid population had inflamed a worldwide crisis I've been hearing from Allister driver who's the editor of u.k. Pig world he says producers here are extremely concerned about the spread of the virus the likely cause of spread around the world is primarily been infected me so that the viruses in the food chain can survive in frozen in tiny quantities for a very long time so although we've never had that there was a real concern that you know that it could arrive and if it did it be devastating So the message is going out really to people that visit they might come from these infected areas that did not bring back meat and particular pork products because that is the most likely way that pigs will become infected if swine fever is in these products and is it harmful to humans know it is very healthy to pigs and can cause a 100 percent were Tallaght but not at all due to humans so we know that it's that it's spread to China which is what half the world's pig population is also in 50 other countries how close is it getting to the u.k. . The closest it got was Belgium in September last year that was a real kind of wake up call in fact the disease has been contained within the wellbore population it didn't get into domestic picks and the latest from Belgium is that they've managed to keep it largely under control beyond that it's been in Eastern Europe and it's been ready. Gradually west over the past few years but it hasn't got yet really further than places like the Czech Republic Cumbrae book area that said still in some of those Eastern European countries no to be remain young buck area there is still quite a lot of disease and I suppose the threat then is if we're buying products pies so assign years whatever sausages from those countries that it could be that produce that is a problem there are rules
