Plans to restrict the role of Welsh MPs should be treated with caution, a former Welsh secretary has warned.

Article: Clwyd West Tory MP David Jones said he backed proposals for "English votes for English laws" but it was important to define clearly what those issues were.
He said many of his constituents used public services in England and many voters there relied on Welsh hospitals.
The UK government said it was bringing about constitutional reform to serve people living in all parts of the UK.
The House of Commons rule changes would also limit some votes to English and Welsh MPs only.
Speaking during a Commons debate on the Queen's Speech, Mr Jones said of the policy: "I strongly approve of that commitment, since it will restore fairness that has been eroded in the wake of the 1999 bout of devolution.
"However...I say that we should treat that proposal with caution and what is most important is that defining what are English or English and Welsh issues is of paramount importance."
Mr Jones said many of his constituents used hospitals in the north west of England.
"The people of north Wales have an absolute right to expect that that their representatives in this place should be able to speak in this House on those issues that concern them."
He added: "I would say to my right honourable friends on the front bench that this is extremely important if the fairness that we seek to achieve by creating by English and Welsh votes for English and Welsh laws, or English votes for English laws, is not to be brought into disrepute."
Business Secretary Sajid Javid said: "As a one nation government we will revise the rules to make the law-making process fair - bringing about constitutional reform that serves people living in all parts of the United Kingdom.
"The introduction of English votes for English laws will do just that for England."
He was challenged by Delyn Labour MP David Hanson, who said he represented a part of Wales that uses English hospital services, transport, employment and airports.
"I want to know from you, why I can't speak or vote on those issues," he said.

Teachers' union says bullying and harassment of staff is on the rise.

More teachers are facing abuse on social media, warns a teachers' union.

Article: Sexist, racist and homophobic remarks were being used by pupils against school staff, as well as offensive comments about appearance, the NASUWT said.
There were also examples of parents being abusive on social media, it added.
About 60% of 1,500 teachers questioned in a poll said they had faced abuse, compared with 21% last year.
In one case, a photograph of a teacher was posted online with an insulting word underneath.
In another, pupils used the name of a heavily pregnant school worker to post insults, the teachers' union said.
Of those who had been subjected to insults, nearly half (48%) said these remarks were posted by pupils, 40% said they were put up by parents, and 12% said both parents and pupils were responsible.
Almost two-thirds (62%) said pupils had posted insulting comments, while just over a third (34%) said students had taken photos or videos without consent.
A third (33%) received remarks about their performance as a teacher, 9% had faced allegations from pupils about inappropriate behaviour and 8% had been subjected to threatening behaviour.
More than half (57%) of pupils responsible were aged between 14 and 16, and 38% were 11 to 14, the teachers' poll found, with a fifth aged 16 to 19 and 5% were seven to 11.
Among the examples published by NASUWT was the case of a student uploading a teacher's photo and then, along with classmates, writing insults underneath.
One teacher had been harassed for nine months by students who sent sexually explicit messages and set up a fake social media account in the teacher's name.
The union said it had been told of a teacher receiving the comment "I hope she gets cancer", while the heavily pregnant worker had faced abusive remarks.
Another school worker faced comments from a pupil's family member about how they looked and that they were ugly.
Chris Keates, the union's general secretary, said: "It is deeply worrying to see that the abuse of teachers has risen by such a huge margin this year.

President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to ease a ban on political endorsements by churches and religious groups.

Article: The order loosens a provision of the tax code which prohibits religious organisations from directly supporting or opposing political candidates.
Mr Trump often complained about the rule as a candidate. Repealing it would require action in Congress.
LGBT groups and several human-rights groups oppose the order.
The order was signed by Mr Trump as he hosts conservative religious leaders at the White House for the National Day of Prayer.
"We will not allow people of faith to be targeted, bullied or silenced ever again," Mr Trump told the audience.
The Executive Order on Promoting Free Speech and Religious Liberty directs the IRS to provide "regulatory relief" to faith-based organisations that are tax-exempt, a White House spokesman said on Wednesday night.
A current provision in the US federal tax code, known as the Johnson Amendment, says that churches can be investigated and lose their tax-exempt status if they directly support or oppose any political candidate.
Since he cannot repeal the law without congressional legislation, Mr Trump is directing the IRS to "exercise maximum enforcement discretion to alleviate the burden of the Johnson Amendment".
Few religious groups are known to have lost their tax status for violating the law, despite many churches openly advocating for political causes and hosting candidates during their campaigns.
"A crippling financial punishment," Mr Trump said ahead of his signing, adding "very, very unfair. But no longer".
The order also directs federal agencies to exempt some religious groups from providing birth control to employees and staff, as required under President Obama's Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare.
The American Civil Rights Union sent out an "action alert" on Wednesday, calling upon supporters to flood lawmakers' inboxes in opposition to the measure, and threatening to sue the White House administration.
The White House says the order is necessary to protect religious groups that had been "persecuted by the Obama administration" such as the Little Sisters...

Google has confirmed it has closed its internet drone project Titan, three years after it bought the business.

Article: The drones were designed to bring the internet to remote rural areas, complementing its Loon project - a similar initiative using hot air balloons.
However, the solar-powered vehicles have faced technical difficulties and funding challenges.
On Wednesday, blog 9to5 Google revealed Titan had actually shut in early 2016.
A statement from X, the Google division responsible for Titan, confirmed the news.
"Titan was brought into X in late 2015. We ended our exploration of high altitude unmanned aerial vehicles for internet access shortly after," it said.
"By comparison, at this stage the economics and technical feasibility of Project Loon present a much more promising way to connect rural and remote parts of the world."
Google acquired Titan Aerospace in 2014, reportedly fending off a bid from Facebook, which has also been trialling internet-providing drones.
At the time Google said it was "early days", but that "atmospheric satellites could help bring internet access to millions of people, and help solve other problems, including disaster relief and environmental damage like deforestation".
However, after test flights began in 2015, reports alleged that Titan was facing technical difficulties and was running out of money.
In mid-2015, the Titan team also experienced a crash in the Arizona desert which was later linked to a wing fault.
The statement added that "many" Titan staff had been reassigned to different parts of the business, including Project Loon and Wing, a division dedicated to providing drone-based deliveries.
Facebook's internet drones have also faced problems.
The firm's Aquila drone crashed during a test flight in June, prompting an investigation by the National Transportation Safety Board, and an explosion destroyed one of its satellites earlier in 2016.

The introduction of a 5p charge for plastic bags in England has been blamed for a packaging firm going into administration.

Article: Forty workers have been made redundant at Nelson Packaging's factory in Lancashire.
Managing director Michael Flynn said it was mainly due to "the English bag legislation and corresponding impact on customer and retailer demand".
He also blamed "aggressive overseas competition".
The 5p charge for bags was introduced in England in October and followed the introduction of charges in Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland.
One worker told BBC Radio Lancashire they believed the legislation had a "slight but not a massive impact" on the business, which has been operating since 1975 and was taken over by Cheshire-based packaging firm Intelipac three years ago.

Union representative Robert Copeland, who had been with the firm since 1986, said staff were told last Wednesday that they were being made redundant and were told to leave the factory immediately.
"It's daunting as I have no interview skills. I'm 49 years old and I've got to now go into a new working environment and start again. It is scary.
"I was 19 when I started andâ€¦ you were seeing the children of people you have been working with for 30 years starting to come through so you had parents and children [at the factory]."
Campaigners argue that plastic bags blight streets, spoil the countryside and damage wildlife, seas and coastline.
Wales was the first UK nation to introduce the bag charges, followed by Northern Ireland and then Scotland.
A report in 2015 found the number of single-use carrier bags handed out by shops in Wales fell by 71% since charges were introduced in 2011.
Scotland and Northern Ireland introduced their charges in 2014 and 2013 respectively and also saw significant drops in usage.
The number of plastic bags handed out in Scottish stores was slashed by 80% -...

A bid has been launched to bar people who live outside of Wales from standing for election to the assembly.

Article: Two former Welsh secretaries, Lord Peter Hain and Paul Murphy, want to change the law to ensure all candidates are on the Wales electoral register.
Lord Hain said being represented by people who live outside the country was "insulting to the people of Wales".
UKIP's assembly group leader AM Neil Hamilton - who lives in Wiltshire - was asked to comment.
Mr Hamilton was elected on the regional list as AM for Mid and West Wales last May.
At the time Mr Hamilton became group leader he said he lived "less than an hour from Cardiff".
"For the time being I'm living where I lived for the last 10 years," he said, adding there was a "big logistical problem to solve" about where he based himself.
Under current rules there is nothing to stop people living outside of Wales standing as a candidate for the assembly.
The proposed amendment says a person may not stand as a candidate unless they are recorded on the Welsh electoral register as "living in Wales".
Lord Hain said the current rules were an "anomaly" in the Government of Wales Act 2006 - which he said he was responsible for as Welsh secretary at the time.
Lord Hain, who moved from London when he was elected as an MP for Neath, did not criticise Mr Hamilton directly, saying he would not "personalise" the issue.

Foreign doctors in Wales will not be told to "go home", Welsh Labour leader Carwyn Jones has said, accusing the Conservatives of "gutter" politics.

Article: He said Tory conference announcements on immigration had been "disturbing, sinister and beneath contempt".
Home Secretary Amber Rudd has said new curbs on foreign workers and students may be needed to "change the tide" of public opinion on immigration.
Mr Jones urged Welsh Labour to "fight for the soul of post-Brexit Britain".
In an email to party members, the first minister condemned the Conservatives, saying: "This isn't just dog-whistle politics, it is politics of the gutter."
He said Welsh Labour members should aim to be a "roadblock" to Tory plans to restrict immigration, and show there was "a better way".
"When senior Tories said yesterday that foreign doctors and their families were only welcome here whilst they were needed, I said they are welcome, full stop," he wrote.
"We must reject the Tories' terrible insult to people who work day in, day out to save and improve lives across Wales."
Mr Jones described Brexit as "a seismic and unsettling event in our country's history, and how we react to it will be the measure of this generation of politicians and political parties".
"I have made absolutely clear my belief that Wales must accept the referendum result, we cannot refight that battle, but we can fight for our vision of the future," he said.
"A bright future for our children and grandchildren, based on our values of fairness, internationalism and prosperity for all."
Welsh Conservative leader Andrew RT Davies described Mr Jones's comments as "ludicrous".
"Ultimately, if there is a poisonous atmosphere surrounding the politics of immigration it's because successive Labour governments over 13 years ruthlessly stifled moderate discussion and left millions of people feeling frustrated and ignored," he said.
Meanwhile SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon and Plaid Cymru leader Leanne Wood have joined forces with Green Party leaders across the UK to condemn "the most toxic rhetoric on immigration seen from any government in living memory".

A student who found Anglo Saxon jewellery of "national significance" said the discovery has made three years exploring the field worthwhile.

Article: Tom Lucking found a gold pendant inlaid with a profusion of garnets while metal detecting on farmland in 2014.
The 7cm (2.8in) item was found in the grave of a female and has been described as one of the "most elaborate...ever found".
It was declared treasure alongside other items at an inquest in Norwich.
Why is Norfolk a treasure hunting hotspot?
Mr Lucking, 23, a student from Felixstowe who is in his final year studying history at the University of East Anglia, said the discovery "had certainly given me a good dissertation project".
He said: "It makes me pleased I've put time and effort in metal detecting in that field and it was worth going out into the cold and rain over the years to find those things."
He unearthed the pendant whilst exploring a field near Diss, after initially detecting a bronze bowl.
After the inquest on Monday, Mr Lucking said: "You can hope, but never really expect to find something like this.
"It's not about the money value, it's about finding something that makes you re-think the whole history of an area."
Julie Shoemark, finds officer for Norfolk, said the burial dates to the cusp of the early Christianisation of Anglo-Saxon England, around the middle of the 7th century AD.
She said: "Within a century of this lady's death, burial practices had completely changed and people were being interred with no associated grave goods, as seen in the burials from Great Ryburgh.
"She was undoubtedly a lady of some status in the community of East Anglia as the magnificent garnet inlaid pendant and associated grave goods demonstrate."
Dr Andrew Rogerson, of the county's Heritage Environment Services, previously described the pendant as one of the "most elaborate...ever found".
He said: "It would seem we have something of major significance."

The government in Indian-administered Kashmir has put curbs on excessively lavish weddings.

Article: Parents of brides cannot invite more than 500 guests, and the number has been limited to 400 for grooms.
The government also said that no more than seven main dishes can be served to "ensure that there is no wastage of any food items".
An MP has also proposed a bill to impose a similar ban on expensive weddings across India.
Weddings are expensive in Kashmir, and the traditional feast, locally called Wazwan, includes a range of vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes.
The state government said the order, which comes into effect from 1 April, was issued in response to public complaints about extravagance, waste and intrusive noise.
The state had imposed a similar ban in 1984, but it was revoked after protests.
Marriages are costly in other parts of India as well, and many people spend lavishly on food, clothes and entertainment.
In November, the five-day wedding of businessman and former Karnataka state minister G Janardhana Reddy's daughter, Brahmani, with an estimated cost of about 5bn rupees ($74m; £59m), prompted outrage as millions of Indians struggled with a cash flow crisis.
Among the extravagances were gold-plated invitation cards fitted with LCD screens, costing 10m rupees.

The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has downgraded Thailand's aviation standards, "red flagging" the country for failing to address safety concerns.

Article: In March, the ICAO issued an alert on Thailand's aviation body after a safety audit revealed that it failed to adequately oversee its airlines.
The move led to a ban on new flights to China, Japan and South Korea.
Thai officials had then submitted plans to deal with the concerns in March.
But, the ICAO "red flagged" the country's body on Thursday for failing to solve the issues within 90 days.
Thailand's aviation sector joins 12 other developing countries, including Nepal and Sierra Leone, that have been downgraded to Category 2 from Category 1 by the organisation for its safety standards.
An audit in January by the United Nations body had found that Thailand's aviation authority had a shortage of technical officers and issues with certifying the transportation of hazardous goods.
The warning meant the country's airlines had to cancel flights and refund or alter thousands of air tickets.
The country's flag carrier, Thai Airways, said in a statement that it followed the "highest safety standards" in all operational areas, despite the red flag from the international regulator.

A Florida mosque has been removed as a polling station for the 2016 election after local officials received complaints and threats of violence.

Article: The Islamic Center of Boca Raton had planned to host a polling site for the state's primary in August and the general election in November.
Officials rescinded the invitation, drawing sharp criticism from Florida lawmakers who said it reinforced religious discrimination.
The site was moved to a nearby library.
County Elections Supervisor Susan Bucher said she moved the site after receiving about 50 complaints from people who said they did not want to vote in a mosque.
The Islamic Center has been used as a polling station at least since 2010, the Washington Post reported.
Democratic US Representatives Ted Deutch and Lois Frankel released statements opposing the move.
"If we are going to use places of worship as polling places, we should not discriminate,'' Mr Deutch said.
It is unclear how many houses of worship are used as polling places across the country, but churches are often selected as host sites because of their large auditoriums and parking lots.
Mosques in California, Iowa, Pennsylvania and Ohio have served as polling places, including one that has been used since at least 2004, according to the AP news agency.

The number of cancer cases in Wales has risen by almost 10% over a 10-year period.

Article: There were about 19,000 diagnoses in 2015, compared to about 17,300 in 2006.
Public Health Wales (PHW) said the main reason for the increase was an ageing population.
The organisation's Dr Dyfed Wyn Huws said there was "good news" by way of significant reductions in smoking rates in recent decades.
There was a year-on-year decrease from about 19,800 cases in 2014, but the 2015 figure of 19,088 is likely to increase as statisticians revise the numbers.
Once age factors are taken into account, the rate decreased by more than 5% in men, but increased by more than 5% among women between 2006 and 2015.
This is partly due to the rate of lung cancer going down in men, but up among women. Historically, smoking rates peaked far earlier among men than women.
Breast, prostate, lung and bowel cancers remain the most common.
According to PHW, cases of liver, mouth, throat and melanoma skin cancer saw the biggest percentage increases.
The rates of stomach cancer and prostate cancer decreased, while mesothelioma rates increased by almost a third.
Dr Huws said: "We know that up to four in 10 of cancers in the population may be preventable.
"With an increasing number of cancer cases each year, cancer control is possible and important for future generations and for keeping rising health service demand in check.
"The good news is that we have seen significant reductions in smoking rates in recent decades.
"This is already bringing cancer rates down in men."

The Prince of Wales has written to David Cameron, urging him to "look again at" a cull of badgers in England.

Prince Charles asked the Blair government to consider the culling of badgers, historic documents reveal.

Article: In a 2005 letter, the prince referred to "the most pressing and urgent problem" of tuberculosis (TB) in cattle, which was "caused and spread" by badgers.
He wrote: "I do urge you to look again at introducing a proper cull of badgers where it is necessary.
The Labour government later rejected a cull in the English countryside.
The revelations come from private letters sent by the Prince of Wales to Labour ministers a decade ago, which have been published after a lengthy legal battle.
Prince Charles wrote: "I, for one, cannot understand how the 'badger lobby' seem to mind not at all about the slaughter of thousands of expensive cattle, and yet object to a managed cull of an over-population of badgers - to me, this is intellectually dishonest."
In reply, Mr Blair said he could "personally see the case for culling badgers" but did not want to prejudge a decision by environment ministers".
The coalition led by David Cameron gave the go-ahead for pilot culls in England in 2013.
These are expected to resume for a third year in the Southwest this year and may be rolled out to other areas of England.
Other letters written by the prince reveal more details of his interest in agriculture.
He appealed for support for farmers and British-grown produce, and raised his "anxiety" about the country's lack of self-sufficiency in foods such as meat and vegetables.
He also mentioned "the enormous problem of climate change", praising "the remarkable leadership role" the government was taking in this area.

A new report has been published detailing the advantages of enhancing and extending the Borders Railway.

Article: It proposes the line between Edinburgh and Tweedbank should be improved and extended via Hawick to Carlisle.
The report, produced by the Campaign for Borders Rail (CBR), said that could provide a "new strategic link" in the national network.
Extending the line is already being examined as part of a wider study of transport issues in southern Scotland.
"We believe that the Borders needs a through route to the south to maximise the region's economic potential," the CBR report states.
"For Hawick, a rail link is vital."
The Summary Case for a New Cross-Border Rail Link adds: "CBR is committed to making the case for further rail-led economic and social regeneration of the Borders and a transformative new cross-border rail link."
Now it is time for Hawick and other communities in the southern Borders to benefit directly.
The briefing sees the vision for an extended Borders Railway as an "exciting opportunity".
"This document will help inform the debate on preparing for the proposed railway through the Scottish Borders to Carlisle and beyond," said Allan McLean, chairman of the CBR.
"The economies of Edinburgh, Midlothian and the northern Borders have all gained demonstrably from the opening of the Borders Railway.
"Now it is time for Hawick and other communities in the southern Borders to benefit directly."
The briefing document sets out the CBR's commercial, social and economic cases for a new railway linking the existing Tweedbank terminus to the West Coast Main Line at Mossband, just north of Carlisle.
"The completed railway would allow through trains between Edinburgh and Carlisle, serving intermediate settlements including Hawick," the report states.
"Communities not directly served would benefit from access by connecting bus services and park and ride stations."
The report claimed that extending the railway was the "only realistic proposal" to adequately address economic and social problems faced by the Scottish Borders and release the route's full potential.
It said detailed studies indicated benefits for...

A man with schizophrenia who repeatedly stabbed a train passenger after yelling "I want to kill all the Muslims" has been found not guilty of attempted murder by reason of insanity.

Article: Adrian Brown, 38, experienced a "severe psychotic episode" when he stabbed Muhammed Ali on a London Overground train on 12 December 2016.
Judge Deborah Taylor QC ordered that Brown should be detained indefinitely.
She added he would only be released on the order of a judge or the government.
Brown, of Brockley Rise, south-east London, appeared via video link from Broadmoor Hospital during the hearing.
A jury found Brown not guilty following a two-day trial at Southwark Crown Court.
He was also found not guilty, by reason of insanity, of possession of an offensive weapon and of assault by beating of Mr Ali.
The trial heard Brown had been delusional in his belief he would "save humanity" and exorcise a Muslim demon haunting him by stabbing his victim.
The court was told he was heard by other passengers to say "Where are all the Muslims? I am going to kill all the Muslims", before holding a knife to the throat of another woman, who was unhurt.
Brown accepted carrying out the attack but pleaded not guilty to a charge of attempted murder on the grounds of insanity.
Mr Ali had been travelling home with his wife when the assault took place between Honor Oak Park and Forest Hill, south London.
He told court that the attack had left him too frightened to leave his house.
"I struggle to sleep at the time because every time I shut my eyes I have flashbacks to the whole thing", he said.
"I can only assume it was me because my wife was wearing a headscarf."
Detaining Brown indefinitely under section 37 of the Mental Health Act, Judge Taylor said: "You have a long history of psychotic illness and on that day you were suffering and you continue to suffer from paranoid schizophrenia.
"There's no doubt that if it had not been for the prompt intervention of an off-duty police officer and two medical practitioners that he he may well have died such were the severity of his injuries and the loss of blood."

The US has warned North Korea to refrain from "irresponsible provocation" after the communist state said its main nuclear facility had resumed normal operations.

Article: The reactor at Yongbyon has been the source of plutonium for North Korea's nuclear weapons programme.
The White House said North Korea should "focus instead on fulfilling its international obligations".
The reactor was shut down in 2007 as part of a disarmament-for-aid deal.
But Pyongyang vowed to restart it in 2013, following its third nuclear test and amid high regional tensions.
White House spokesman Josh Earnest said the international community would not accept North Korea as a nuclear state.
"We will work with our partners in the context of the six-party talks to try to return North Korea to a posture of fulfilling those commitments that they have made," he said.
"We will repeat our call that North Korea should refrain from the irresponsible provocations that aggravate regional tension and should focus instead on fulfilling its international obligations and commitments."
Six-nation talks involving South Korea, the US, China, Japan and Russia aimed at ending the North's nuclear programme have been stalled since 2009.
Experts believe that, when fully operational, the Yongbyon reactor can make one nuclear bomb's worth of plutonium per year.
A US think-tank said this year that satellite images suggested work had started at the Yongbyon complex.
But Tuesday's announcement was the first official confirmation from North Korea that it had restarted operations there.
The state-run news agency KCNA said North Korea was improving its nuclear weapons "in quality and quantity".
It said that the North was ready to face US hostility with "nuclear weapons any time".
However, experts say North Korea's nuclear capabilities are unclear.
Pyongyang claims it has made a device small enough to fit a nuclear warhead on to a missile, which it could launch at its enemies. But US officials have cast doubt on the claim.
North Korea has made bellicose threats against its neighbours and the US before, often to coincide with annual joint military exercises held by South Korea and US forces.
The two Koreas remain technically at war,...

But the government says it is committed to stamping out abuses of the immigration system.
On Thursday, the House of Lords is set to debate the impact of immigration policy on UK higher education.
The coalition has pledged to restrict the level of annual net migration - the balance between the number of people who come to live in the UK for the long-term and the number who are leaving - to "tens of thousands".
Since last year, all institutions which want to sponsor non-European Union students for a visa must be accredited as "highly trusted".
Potential entrants have to speak a higher standard of English and the "post-study work route" to staying on has been closed, unless graduates have an offer of one of a list of skilled jobs.
The overall UK net migration figure fell from 242,000 to 183,000 in the year to March.
The Office for National Statistics said this was "largely due" to a decline in the number of foreign students despite an increase in the number of arrivals from China - the UK's largest overseas student market.
Opponents of the government's changes say they damage the economy by restricting the lucrative movement of students to the UK, putting universities at a disadvantage.
In their letter to Mr Cameron, the five select committee chairmen urge "further action to encourage international university students to study in the UK".
They add: "Doing so has the potential to support economic growth in the immediate and longer term, supporting jobs in university towns and increasing export earnings.
"International students who study in the UK also build relationships which last over time, laying the foundations for future business opportunities in emerging economies, and supporting our foreign policy objectives."
They also ask the prime minister to "reconcile the remaining tensions...

NAB has set aside £1.2bn to compensate customers for mis-selling payment protection insurance.

Clydesdale Bank is to set aside as much as £500m in extra funding this year to compensate customers for mis-selling of financial products.

Article: The sum is on top of more than £1.2bn set aside in previous years' provisions.
Parent company National Australian Bank (NAB) said between £350m and £500m more would be set aside this year, but added that the final cost remained uncertain.
The move was announced in its third quarter results on Monday.
Up until the end of March, NAB had set aside £806m to compensate customers for the mis-selling of payment protection insurance (PPI). A total of £325m has already been paid out.
NAB's cumulative provisions relating to interest rate hedging products amounted to £431m, about half of which has been paid out.
This year's extra funding will come from a £1.7bn mis-selling fund, which the bank is being required by UK regulators to make available after the Clydesdale is floated.
NAB is in the process of demerging and floating Glasgow-based Clydesdale, which includes the Yorkshire Bank.
It intends to complete the break-up by the end of this year.
In a statement, NAB said "substantial progress" had been made on the demerger and stock market sale. It will provide more detail with full-year results in late October.
The Australian banking group has been working hard to offload the Clydesdale, which amassed a large portfolio of bad property loans.
It has also been facing high costs of redress for mis-selling payment protection insurance and complex systems for business customers to protect against interest rate changes.

Harbro Group has reported pre-tax profit increase of £800,000, to £3.5m, in the year to the end of June 2016.

One of Scotland's largest animal feed producers has posted a rise in profits, despite reporting a "challenging" year for the industry.

Article: Aberdeenshire-based Harbro Group saw pre-tax profit increase by £800,000, to £3.5m, in the year to the end of June 2016.
This was despite turnover falling by £1m to just over £100m.
Harbro said international sales grew over the year, both in Europe and in new markets further afield.
The Turriff-based company manufactures and supplies feeds for the beef, sheep, dairy, pig and poultry sectors.
It also has a network of 19 shops across Scotland, operating under the Country Store brand. The stores cater for farming and rural communities with a range of products, including fireside supplies, country clothing and footwear.
In accounts filed with Companies House, the company said: "As always, the outlook for agriculture is difficult to predict.
"We have certainly been experiencing challenging times over the last 12-18 months but the industry is a robust one.
"The impact of Brexit is still to be fully understood, although the board are confident that the group will be well positioned for whatever business challenges this may bring about."

Authorities in Nigeria's Lagos State have shut 70 churches and 20 mosques in an attempt to reduce high noise levels.

Article: About 10 hotels, pubs and club houses were also closed, officials said.
Some estimates put Lagos' population at around 20 million, creating a constant background of noise - from the blaring of car horns, to the Muslim call to prayer and loud singing in churches.
The state government has vowed to make the city, the biggest in Africa, noise-free by 2020.
Africa Live: More on this and other news stories
In August, the Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency (LEPA) closed 22 premises after residents complained about noise emanating from them.
Following the latest crackdown, its general manager Bola Shabi said the agency would no longer allow people to pray in makeshift buildings and tents.
Mr Shabi said noise levels had been reduced by about 35%, but this was not a "pass mark yet".
"Enforcement is a continuous exercise and we have set a target for ourselves. We want to ensure that Lagos is noise-free by the year 2020," he said.
Mr Shabi said mosques complied with their instructions more than churches because when they are ordered to shut down, they "instantly bring down their speakers or reduce the noise they make''.
Nigerians are extremely religious, with a large number of evangelical churches operating in Lagos.
Christians form the majority in the city.
In 2014, 116 people died when a building owned by popular televangelist TB Joshua collapsed in Lagos.

Labour has been "ploughing on as if they have a divine right to rule" in Wales, the Welsh Conservative leader has said.

Article: Speaking to Huw Edwards on The Wales Report, Andrew RT Davies defended his party from criticism that it simply opposes Labour policies rather than putting forward its own programme for government.
"At every juncture we bring forward an alternative, we don't just criticise," he said.
"There is a clear agenda for what the Welsh Conservatives stand for, and it's action.
"It's action to improve the economy, it's action to improve public services in Wales and it's action to strengthen communities the length and breadth of Wales."
Asked about his priority if the Tories won power after the assembly election in May, Mr Davies said: "The first spending commitment is protecting the NHS budget for the lifetime of this parliament, or the assembly's term, the five years.
"I would suggest that the outcomes in Wales regrettably aren't as good as we want them to be.
"And we want to make sure those outcomes are improved.
"That's why we've called for an independent Keogh-style enquiry into the NHS here in Wales so we can make those improvements, not on political whims, but led by clinicians themselves telling us what we need to be doing to improve the health service here in Wales."
Prof Sir Bruce Keogh investigated 14 NHS trusts in England for a review into higher-than-expected hospital death rates, published in 2013.
Speaking about the Wales Bill on further devolution, the Welsh Conservative leader praised Welsh Secretary Stephen Crabb's handling of the legislation, put on hold on Monday after MPs called for a re-think.
It followed claims that the draft bill was confusing, and would leave Welsh ministers with fewer powers rather than more.
Mr Davies said: "The secretary of state deserves huge credit; for instead of ploughing on with this bill, actually saying 'I've listened to what people have said to me'.
"Actually, the Welsh Labour government could learn a lot from this legislative process."
First Minister Carwyn Jones had called Monday's announcement on the Wales Bill an "avoidable delay to clear up an avoidable mess".

Scotland's media landscape is being bulldozed - transformed by digital technology, burgeoning choice, and quite a bit of politics - particularly as the future of the BBC is now in play.

Article: The politics is also apparent in the newspaper sales figures for the first half of the year. Out this week, they show the average decline at more than 10% since the first half of last year, continuing the industry's painful downward trajectory.
Scotland on Sunday saw print sales fall more than 20%. It now has an average weekly sale of less than 25,000. It doesn't have its own staff any more, relying on a journalism pool shared with its stablemate, The Scotsman.
"SoS" is now being beaten by the only weekly "regional" paper to register a rise in print sales, according to the Audit Bureau of Circulation. The Sunday Herald looked to be on its last legs, but found a niche by backing the independence cause.
Approving "Yes" campaigners backed it, with a big lift in the back half of last year, from which it's fallen back, but still retained an average 29,000 weekly sales.
Its publisher, Newsquest, also saw a gap in the daily market for pro-independence readers. Although the figures aren't audited, we're told they're selling nearly 17,000 a day.
These are small numbers when set alongside the total sale of newspapers. The constitutional debate may have polarised opinion and changed some buying behaviour, but it can be overstated. The decline of sales in Scotland has recently been steeper than those for the rest of the UK, but the trends are similar.
Meanwhile, publishers point out there's a rise in online readership. But that's not making them enough money to sustain their cost bases. In the case of the Scotsman's figures, daily online readers are down 33% since a busy referendum period.
Those news publishers are competing with broadcasters for online readers. We've just got half year figures for STV which show  it aiming to achieve its turnaround by the end of next year.

Summary:


A skin cancer appeal backed by a BBC presenter has reached its £45,000 target after just six weeks.

Article: The Colin Bloomfield Melanoma Appeal was launched in February to raise awareness of skin cancer and educate children in schools about sun safety.
The target was reached on Monday after the Freemasons in Derby donated £10,000 with a new target set at £75,000.
Radio Derby presenter Colin Bloomfield - who has stage four melanoma - said the donations were "hugely generous".
BBC Radio Derby is working with the Derby Telegraph and charity Skcin, which specialises in skin cancer prevention.
The station launched the appeal after Colin's diagnosis in 2013, and his openness and optimism on the disease touched thousands of listeners.
The 33-year-old had a malignant melanoma removed from his leg 10 years ago but in 2013 he was told the cancer had returned and in November he was given months to live when it spread to his brain.
"Every single pound has made such a big difference," he said,
"As a child I never understood the seriousness of getting burnt but I'm living through it now.
"[Melanoma] is a truly horrible disease that a lot of people don't understand the seriousness of.
"We are not used to seeing the sun in this country and when we go out and enjoy it, it is about doing it safely and responsibly.
"If we can hammer home that message to kids in schools that can only be a good thing."
Earlier this month Derby County Football Club raised more than £14,000 after donating £10 for every away ticket sold at Norwich.
The appeal aims to take the sun safe scheme to 200 schools in Derbyshire and East Staffordshire.

A Russian court has jailed three women for performing a twerking dance in front of a World War Two memorial.

Article: The court in Novorossiysk gave two of the dancers 10 days in jail each, a third 15 days and two others received fines on charges of petty hooliganism.
Prosecutors had said their "erotic and sexual twerk dance" was disrespectful to historic memory and unacceptable.
Earlier this month, Russian officials closed a dance school after a similar dance video emerged on the internet.
The latest incident involves six dancers - one of them a minor who was not convicted - who had posted a video on YouTube.
"This incident of disrespect for the memory of war history is unacceptable  and any attempts to desecrate sites of military glory will be stopped  immediately," prosecutors said.
The sentences come as Russia prepares to mark the 70th anniversary of  the World War Two victory.
They also follow the incident early in April when a video clip from the Orenburg dance school on YouTube was viewed millions of times.
The video clip, entitled Winnie the Pooh and the Bees, showed a group of teenage girls dancing on stage in striped leotards, long socks and mini-skirts,
They perform hip-thrusting moves characteristic of twerking.
A committee is investigating whether the performance amounts to negligence or even "debauched action", which is punishable by a range of sanctions from community service to three years behind bars.

A man has been charged with the murder of a soldier who was found dead in a car in Brecon.

A killer who boasted he was the "hardest man" in town has been found guilty of murdering a soldier in Powys.

Article: Pte Matthew Boyd, 20, was off-duty on a night out in Brecon when he was punched and beaten by Jake Vallely.
But the jury cleared Vallely's friend Aaeron Evans of manslaughter after Cardiff Crown Court was told he was not present during the attack.
Vallely, 24, will be sentenced on 8 December.
The unconscious body of Pte Boyd, who served with the Royal Gibraltar Regiment, was found by police in the town in the early hours of 8 May.
Pte Boyd, who is originally from Carrickfergus, County Antrim, had been in the town for training exercises at the infantry battle school.
During the trial, the court heard Pte Boyd was making his way back to the barracks when he was attacked outside a bar called The Cellar.
CCTV footage showed the soldier being punched, going to the ground and being beaten until he no longer moved.
Vallely then dragged his body from the scene before fleeing.
The trial was told the killer had been on a seven hour drinking binge and in the hour before the attack was boasting he was the "hardest man in Brecon".
His friend Mr Evans was cleared of any involvement in the attack, after the jury was told he had left the scene before the start of any violence.
Senior investigating officer Det Supt David Guiney, from Dyfed-Powys Police, called the attack "a despicable act" that "shocked" the community of Brecon.
"I plead with anyone who plans a night out drinking with their friends to please, walk away from any conflict, do not resort to violence," he said.
A family tribute described Pte Boyd as an "all-rounder" who had "a promising career ahead of him which has been cut short".
The tribute read: "Matthew was full of life. He was loving, caring and loyal. He was always playing jokes on his peers and family, and always brought smiles to our faces."
It said Vallely had created "a void in our family that will never be filled", adding the "unbearable pain" was something they will have to live with for the rest of their lives.
"During this trial, it has been mentioned that Jake Vallely called himself the 'hardest...

Police have praised the "good family atmosphere" among the thousands of people who turned out to watch Guid Nychburris events in Dumfries.

Article: In previous years crime figures have seen a significant rise during the annual celebration.
Good weather on Saturday meant a larger number of spectators than usual turned out to the event.
However, Insp Stuart Wilson said that other than a "few minor incidents" it had passed peacefully.
He said: "The annual Guid Nychburris celebrations started early with police cyclists escorting about 200 horses through the traffic in Dumfries.
"The good weather meant that there were a large number of spectators out to watch the horses, the crowning ceremony and the parade in the centre of Dumfries but it was a good family atmosphere and there were no policing issues.
"Local police were assisted by police horses and Operational Support Division from Glasgow to make sure the crowds were safe."

Pope Francis has recognised a second miracle attributed to Mother Teresa, clearing the way for the Roman Catholic nun to be made a saint next year.

Article: The miracle involved the healing of a Brazilian man with several brain tumours in 2008, the Vatican said.
Mother Teresa died in 1997 and was beatified - the first step towards sainthood - in 2003.
She won the Nobel Peace Prize for her work with the poor in the slums of Indian city of Kolkata (Calcutta).
"The Holy Father has authorised the Congregation for the Causes of Saints to proclaim the decree concerning the miracle attributed to the intercession of blessed Mother Teresa," the Vatican said on Friday.
She is expected to be canonised in Rome in September.
Beatification by the Catholic Church requires one miracle, while the process of becoming recognised as a saint requires proof of at least two miracles.
Mother Teresa was beatified in 2003 after Pope John Paul II accepted as authentic a miracle attributed to her.
He judged that the curing of an Indian woman suffering from an abdominal tumour was the result of the supernatural intervention of the late Mother Teresa - a claim challenged by Indian rationalists.
There are few details about the recovery of the Brazilian man, whose life the Vatican says was saved in the second miracle.
His identity has not been disclosed to maintain the discretion needed for the investigation, the Catholic New Agency has said.
It says he was unexpectedly cured from brain tumours in 2008 after his priest prayed for Mother Teresa's intervention with God.
Born Agnes Gonxhe Bojaxhiu in Skopje, Macedonia, in 1910, she founded the Missionaries of Charity in 1949, dedicating her life to caring for impoverished and sick people in Kolkata.
Known as the "saint of the gutter", she earned worldwide acclaim for her efforts.
Her critics, however, accused her of mixing with dictators and peddling a hardline Catholicism.

North Korea has test fired a mid-range ballistic missile which crashed a few seconds after launch, say South Korean military officials.

Article: It is thought to be the second test of the North's new Musudan missile. An attempt earlier this month also failed.
The tests come amid a recent ramp-up in weapons activity as the country prepares for a rare party congress.
Reports suggest it is planning a fifth nuclear test, despite condemnation of its last test in January.
South Korean officials said the mid-range missile launch took place early Thursday morning near the eastern coastal city of Wonsan but the missile "crashed a few seconds later" in the coastal area, reported Yonhap news agency.
The incident was captured by a US surveillance satellite.
The Musudan missiles are said to be able to travel up to 4,000km (2,485 miles), within the range of US territories in the Pacific.
No confirmation of the attempt or the failure has come from North Korea, but sources in South Korea say that the movement of two so-called Musudan missiles, mounted on trucks, was detected earlier in the month.
One was launched two weeks ago and tracked but failed to go far. The same has now happened to the second, according to South Korea.
Kim Jong-un is building up to a big event in just over a week, a rare meeting of the ruling Workers' Party in Pyongyang.
He has trumpeted a series of announcements about progress towards having a nuclear-tipped missile capable of striking Washington. Failed launches indicate that the reality may not match the rhetoric.
All the same, they indicate determination. A fifth nuclear test coinciding with the congress would not be a surprise.
On Saturday, North Korea's foreign minister Ri Yong-su suggested that it would suspend nuclear tests if the US ended its annual military exercises with the South.
But US President Barack Obama dismissed the proposal, saying it was not serious and that North Korea would "have to do better than that".
Strengthened international sanctions were placed on North Korea after it tested what it claimed was a hydrogen bomb and launched a long-range missile.

The US has set a new world record for the most people reading a book in one sitting.

Pupils at about 400 Kenyan schools are trying to break the world record for having the most people reading aloud simultaneously from the same book.

Article: They read from Attack of the Shidas about children from different Kenyan communities working together to protect their well from an alien invasion.
The event is meant to foster a culture of reading in the country, the organisers told the BBC.
The US currently holds the Guinness World Record set by 233,000 people.
It will take at least a week to work out whether they have been successful as they need to tally the number of pupils from across the country who participated.
Kenyan children's book author Muthoni Muchemi led the event with 1,700 students reading from her book at Hospital Hill Primary School in the capital, Nairobi.
Afterwards, she said she wanted to break the stereotype that Africans do not care for books.
"Growing up I would always hear that if you want to hide something from an African, put it in a book - and it was really upsetting to me," she told the BBC.
"I want to help change that perception and the first step is to re-introduce reading not just as important but enjoyable," she said.
"I have seen over the years that a lot of families don't have libraries in their homes but have they have big TVs. We need to get parents to understand that reading for pleasure with their children is an important part of brain development."
The 13- and 14-year-olds, dressed in grey and white uniforms, who chorused the words at Hospital Hill Primary School said they enjoyed the challenge.
"I enjoy reading because it teaches me about other people and places. It teaches me about the world," one girl said.
Another student said he thought Attack of the Shidas had important life lessons about working together and accepting people's differences.
It is not the first time Kenya has tried to break the record - last year 142,279 children read aloud in 360 schools.
This time, Ms Muchemi is more optimistic about the Storymoja National Read Aloud attempt.
But she says in the end it is about building confidence in children.

The controversy over the use of the terms 'Derry' and 'Londonderry' surfaces in state papers that have just been released.

Article: The British Government permitted changing the name of the local authority to Derry City Council in 1985.
The council's town clerk was instructed to write to NI Secretary Douglas Hurd.
He asked that staff in government departments be allowed to use 'Derry' or 'Londonderry' in official letters.
In response, Londonderry Unionist Association said it reinforced the claim for a separate district council for the East Bank of the Foyle.
Pat Carvill, a Stormont official, said its real effect was to force council staff and the public to indicate where they stood on the name-change issue.
His advice was that government bodies should employ the current terminology, using Derry City Council, but Londonderry as the postal address.
The controversy over the city's name re-surfaced the following year.
DUP MLA Gregory Campbell protested to David Fell, the Permanent Secretary at the Department of Economic Development in Stormont, about the use of the word 'Derry' in a job advertisement for the local Shantallow Area Workshop.
Writing from the Stormont Assembly on 22 April 1986, Mr Campbell told the official: "As you are probably aware, the way in which advertisements are worded can very often affect the type of people who apply.
"An ad placed in Londonderry with the term 'Derry' is virtually certain to preclude many Protestants from applying."
In this case, it suggested that the business in question was exclusively Catholic.
The MLA said: "Whether or not this is the case I feel a workshop sponsored by the DED ought not to have an incorrect or politically-motivated version of the city's name in the advertisement."
He asked if action could be taken by the department or if he should refer the case to the Fair Employment Agency for investigation.
In a minute on the file, Trevor Pearson of the Stormont Central Secretariat said on 30 April 1986: "The issue of the use of Derry or Londonderry drags on interminably.
"The government position is simply that the correct address is Londonderry and that Derry is used only when referring to...

The opposition parties in South Korea have blocked a bill that would have allowed the country's intelligence services to collect a wide range of personal information - including phone records - on anyone deemed to pose a security risk.
The bill was backed by the ruling Saenuri Party, which holds the majority of seats in parliament, but

South Korean opposition lawmakers have ended a parliamentary filibuster that lasted 192 hours, which is believed to have set a new world record.

Article: They were trying to block an anti-terrorism bill which they said threatened personal freedoms.
But they gave up on Wednesday fearing a public backlash, as the prolonged anti-terror proceedings were delaying the passing of other important bills.
The previous world record of 57 hours was set by a Canadian party in 2011.
The end of the filibuster in Seoul means that a bill backed by the ruling Saenuri Party, which holds the majority of seats in parliament, will be put to a vote and is likely to be passed.
The legislation allows intelligence services to collect a wide range of personal information - including phone records - on anyone deemed to pose a security risk. Opposition parties said it would violate privacy rights and could be used to stifle political dissent.
Filibustering is a parliamentary delaying tactic by which MPs drag out speeches to the end of the allocated time, so that no vote can be held.
South Korea's filibuster was spearheaded by main opposition party Minjoo which was joined by other smaller parties, and began last Tuesday, 23 February.
Their tactics included reading out lengthy academic articles in full as well as news articles and internet comments, staging elaborate and rambling monologues and even reading from George Orwell's novel 1984.
Some lawmakers were spotted wearing trainers, while others reportedly refrained from drinking water so that they could cut down on loo breaks. Still others were seen dozing off in their seats during the marathon session.
The longest speech made was by Jung Cheong-rae, who spoke for 11 hours 39 minutes.
They would have succeeded if they had managed to hold out until the end of the parliamentary session at midnight on 10 March.
But as the days wore on they faced increasing public criticism, as the filibuster was delaying the passage of bills on North Korean human rights and electoral districts for April's general election.
But President Park Geun-hye had argued such measures were necessary and condemned the filibuster as "nothing more than a dereliction of...

The film's success

Jurassic World has become the first film to take more than $500m (£322m) at the global box office on its opening weekend.

Article: In the US it took $204.6m (£132m) according to early estimates, making it the second biggest opening weekend ever just behind 2012's Marvel's The Avengers with $207.4m (£133.8m).
What is the secret to the film's success?
Although he spent many years in supporting roles and is best known for his comic role in cult US sitcom Parks and Recreation, Pratt has become one of Hollywood's most bankable stars in the past year.
He starred in two of 2014's top five grossing films at the US box office - The Lego Movie and Guardians of the Galaxy.
An endearing mixture of charm, vulnerability and humour means he can humanise even the most effects-laden summer blockbusters - something he proved in Marvel's Guardians, where his co-stars were a talking raccoon and a giant animated tree.
Against expectations, the film took $774m (£499m) at the global box office - making it the third highest-grossing film in 2014.
The actor didn't exactly get hit with the ugly stick, either.
There is a strict quota on the number of foreign films which can be screened in China - currently set at 34 movies a year.
But the country's film market is the world's second largest after the US so getting your film on the list can boost box office takings considerably.
Most Hollywood blockbusters do not open in China the same time as the US but unusually, Jurassic World opened in both territories the same weekend.
The film opened in 66 foreign markets in total, earning $307.2m (£198m). China accounted for $100.8m (£65m) - almost 20% of its total haul.
When Jurassic Park was released Imax screens were scarce, reserved usually for short films, documentaries and theme park novelties.
With some 800 Imax screens around the world now, the prospect of seeing dinosaurs even larger than life-size has proved to be a compelling draw.
With the added ability to see a T-Rex in 3D, it seems audiences have been happy to pay premium prices for extra spectacle - bumping up box office returns in the process.
According to box office analysts Rentrak, nearly 50% of Jurassic...

A man who stole £65,000 from a disabled man and his wife has been jailed for two-and-a-half years.
Melanie Harris, 44, emptied the bank account of 65-year-old Ted Carter, who had cerebral palsy, and used it for shopping trips and family presents.

A care worker has been jailed for stealing £75,000 from a patient to spend on a "lavish lifestyle".

Article: Melanie Harris, 44, emptied the bank account of 65-year-old Ted Carter, who had cerebral palsy, and used it for shopping trips and family presents.
Harris, from Barnstaple, had denied one count of fraud but was jailed for two-and-a-half years for the thefts which took place between 2011 and 2013.
The Recorder said she had abused "a highly vulnerable housebound man".
Harris was responsible for looking after Mr Carter and his wife who used a wheelchair, at their bungalow in Wikley Close, Barnstaple, as a team leader with the private care provider, Cygnet Care.
Police described her house in Fremington as "looking like a show home", after Harris used the couple's debit card on a series of shopping trips, Exeter Crown Court heard last year.
Harris, who hid Mr Carter's bank statements to cover up the thefts, was caught after another carer noticed Mr Carter's money had been used for a baby shower.
Recorder Philip Mott said: "He trusted you with his card, PIN and passbook and trusted you as a co-signatory. As a result, you had complete control over his accounts."
The recorder said Harris was motivated by "family expenses", and cited the probation report which spoke of her "greed and a desire to fund a lavish lifestyle".

CrossCountry has announced that it will be cutting four of its services from December.
The company said that it would be reducing the number of services from its Edinburgh to Glasgow route from three to two, and from Edinburgh to Aberdeen from two to one.
It will also be reducing the number of services from Edinburgh to Aberdeen

Plans to reduce CrossCountry train services between Aberdeen and Edinburgh have been scrapped.

Article: Proposed timetable changes could have seen four of six services being cut.
However, CrossCountry said there would now be no changes to timetables from this December, and that further discussion would take place on the future of the services.
It followed discussions with the Department for Transport and Transport Scotland.
A CrossCountry spokesman said: "Last year CrossCountry consulted widely on possible changes to its timetables from December 2017.
"These included the option of changing the number of CrossCountry services north of Edinburgh to and from north east Scotland, allowing the local train operator ScotRail to provide these.
"After discussions between the Department for Transport and Transport Scotland, it became clear that ScotRail would be unable to replicate these services at this time, so it was agreed there would be no changes to CrossCountry's Scottish timetables from this December and further discussion would take place to agree the future of these services."

The justices said they would hear a combined case about marriage

The US Supreme Court will rule this year on whether gay couples have a right to marry across all states.

Article: The justices said they would hear a combined case about marriage bans in four states.
But a supreme court ruling on the cases could fully legalise gay marriage in the US.
The court previously struck down a US law preventing federal recognition of marriages in states allowing same-sex unions.
After that ruling, a wave of decisions in the regional federal appeals courts ended numerous state gay marriage bans.
Thirty-six states and the District of Columbia now issue marriage licences to same-sex couples. Fourteen state bans remain.
On Friday, the justices said they would take up cases from gay and lesbian plaintiffs in Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and Tennessee.
In November, a US appeals court overturned rulings striking down marriage bans in those four states, the first appeals court to do so since the Supreme Court's initial gay marriage ruling.
The US high court previously declined to intervene in cases that had made it to the appeals court level, effectively allowing marriages to go forward.
During two-and-a-half hours of arguments, the justices will consider two related questions - whether the US constitution requires states to issue marriage licences to gay and lesbian couples and whether states must recognise such marriages performed in other states.
The case will be argued in April and a decision is expected by late June.

His mother, Farheen Khan, found her son after forcing her way into his locked bedroom on September 28. He died in hospital a short time later.ã€€
His family maintain he had been bullied.
Bradford Coroner's Court heard Asad had told a boy - who cannot be identified - a number of things, including that he felt "unsafe" in school and was "going to skive for a very long time."
Coroner Martin Fleming heard on another occasion, Asad told the boy: "Life is unfair. I would say it's 90 to 95 per cent life is hard".
Mr Fleming said he would now consider whether to call the boy in person to give evidence.
The inquest will resume next month.

Summary:


Dan Biggar's decision to renew his national dual contract is "fabulous" news for Wales and Ospreys, according to Martyn Williams.

Article: The 26-year-old fly-half has agreed a new deal which could keep him in Wales until the 2019 World Cup.
Williams, who played 100 times for Wales, believes it will help Ospreys keep and recruit players.
"It's fabulous news for Welsh rugby and the Ospreys in particular," he said on BBC Wales' Scrum V TV programme.
"Not only is Dan committing himself to Wales for the next four years, but it helps the Ospreys with recruitment for the next couple of seasons.
"If players were looking to sign and come to the Ospreys if they can see Dan Biggar is going to be there for the next three or four seasons that helps them as well."
Biggar's current deal was due to expire at the end of this season.
He is the first of Wales' 17 dually contracted players to re-sign on the deals which are 60% funded by the WRU and 40% by the region.
In addition to potentially attracting new players to the region, Biggar's decision to stay may help negotiations with his Ospreys and Wales colleagues scrum-half Rhys Webb and second row Alun Wyn Jones.
Both players' contracts expire in the summer of 2016, with Ospreys skipper Jones saying in November that he was still weighing up his options.
Scarlets are in talks with Wales centre Scott Williams over extending his dual contract, and have secured the return of British and Irish Lions centre Jonathan Davies from Clermont Auvergne next season.

One witness told the hearing McMeekin had driven "like a lunatic".
He was accused of "showing off" while driving the car, which had been bought for him by his mother just five days before the crash.
The court heard he had advertised "lifts cheaper than taxis" on social media.
He will be sentenced next month.

Earlier this year Ricky got to try out the Oculus Rift and some of it's accessories.

Summary:


The most advanced flight incubators in the UK for sick babies will be used by Wales Air Ambulance later this month.

Article: The charity said the new technology would provide an alternative to road ambulance journeys, offering significantly quicker transport of vulnerable babies between hospitals.
The service began carrying Babypods for emergency missions in 2013.
But the new incubators will attach to existing equipment in the helicopter, providing warmth and oxygen.
They also have a transparent chamber, allowing babies to be monitored during flights.
Welsh medics went to Switzerland to help in the design process and, at a cost of Â£70,000 each, two new incubators have been bought by NHS Wales.
They will be used on Wales Air Ambulance's newest helicopter, the fourth in its fleet.
Weighing 15st 10lb (100kg), the incubators will be fitted to a sled and require two people to lift them into the air ambulance.
Since April 2015, helicopter crews have been joined on board by consultant doctors.
Dr Dindi Gill, the Emergency Medical Retrieval and Transfer Service Cymru interim director, said: "Having the incubator system will further enhance the ability of the EMRTS teams to manage neonates born at home or in hospital.
"It is recognised that temperature control is extremely important to this group of patients and, therefore, we welcome the ability to carry the incubator on Wales Air Ambulance's helicopters."
Following crew training, the incubator service will run as a trial to the end of 2016.

Article: The council's licensing and gambling committee blocked a plan to introduce an annual charge for any establishment staying open after midnight.
Up to 800 licensed premises would have paid between Â£299 and Â£4,400 to offset the costs of the night-time economy.
The committee said the net income generated by the plan would be unlikely to produce "significant improvements".
Merseyside Police had estimated the annual cost of policing the city centre from midnight to 06:00 to be about Â£540,000.
Some bars and clubs in Liverpool had opposed the levy and pub chain JD Wetherspoon called it "an unfair tax on pubs".
A similar late-night levy was introduced in Newcastle-upon-Tyne in 2013.

Ever since Ukraine's February revolution, the Kremlin has characterised the new leaders in Kiev as a "fascist junta" made up of neo-Nazis and anti-Semites, set on persecuting, if not eradicating, the Russian-speaking population.

Article: This is demonstrably false. Far-right parties failed to pass a 5% barrier to enter parliament, although if they had banded together, and not split their vote, they would have probably slipped past the threshold.
Only one government minister has links to nationalist parties - though he is in no way a neo-Nazi or fascist. And the speaker of parliament, Volodymyr Groysman, is Jewish. He has the third most powerful position in the country after the president and prime minister.
But Ukrainian officials and many in the media err to the other extreme. They claim that Ukrainian politics are completely fascist-free. This, too, is plain wrong.
As a result, the question of the presence of the far-right in Ukraine remains a highly sensitive issue, one which top officials and the media shy away from. No-one wants to provide fuel to the Russian propaganda machine.
But this blanket denial also has its dangers, since it allows the ultra-nationalists to fly under the radar. Many Ukrainians are unaware that they exist, or even what a neo-Nazi or fascist actually is, or what they stand for.
This hyper-sensitivity and stonewalling were on full display after President Petro Poroshenko presented a Ukrainian passport to someone who, according to human rights activists, is a "Belarusian neo-Nazi".
The Ukrainian leader handed out medals on 5 December to fighters who had tenaciously defended the main airport in the eastern region of Donetsk from being taken over by Russian-backed separatists.
Among the recipients was Serhiy Korotkykh, a Belarusian national, to whom Mr Poroshenko awarded Ukrainian citizenship, praising his "courageous and selfless service".
The president's website showed a photo of Mr Poroshenko patting the shoulder of the Belarusian, who was clad in military fatigues.
Experts who follow the far right have strongly objected to President Poroshenko's decision.
They say Mr Korotkykh was a member of the far-right Russian National Unity party and also a founding member of the neo-Nazi National Socialist Society (NSS) in...

Summary:


The price of oil fell to its lowest level since 2009 as global production continues to remain high.

Article: The price of West Texas crude sank to $37.65 (Â£24.99) a barrel, a drop of 5.8%, while Brent Crude fell 5.3% to $40.73 a barrel.
The slumping price comes as OPEC - a group of the largest oil producing nations- refused to cut oil production.
OPEC- whose production covers about 30% of the world's oil demand - met in Vienna last week to discuss production.
The group has faced growing competition from new supplies, including in the US where techniques like fracking are used to tap previously hard-to-reach oil reserves.
"The decision by OPEC members to keep oil production output at record high levels has seen oil prices plummet again," said Sanjiv Shah, chief investment officer of Sun Global Investments.
The group had traditionally kept a tight rein on oil production to regulate price, but announced last Friday it will continue to pump out approximately 31.5 million barrels of oil a day, going past the group's former 30 million barrel target.
In 2014 Saudi Arabia led OPEC in a decision to keep output high to defend its market share.

The victims of the Kincora scandal are taking legal action to force an independent inquiry with power to compel witnesses and the security services to hand over documents.

A judicial review has begun over the decision to exclude the former Kincora boys' home in east Belfast from a child abuse inquiry being held at Westminster.

Article: A victim is taking legal action to force an independent inquiry with power to compel witnesses and the security services to hand over documents.
Gary Hoy was abused by two men who were subsequently convicted.
There have been allegations that a paedophile ring at Kincora was linked to the British intelligence services.
The government has so far refused calls for the abuse scandal at the Belfast home to be included within the scope of the inquiry established by Home Secretary Theresa May and headed by New Zealand judge Lowell Goddard.
The government has said that as child protection is a devolved matter, the right place for the Kincora allegations to be examined is Northern Ireland's Historical Institutional Abuse Inquiry, which has been sitting in Banbridge.
The victims of Kincora claim the Northern Ireland inquiry lacks the powers to compel evidence or witnesses from government agencies.
Amnesty International, which is supporting the victims' legal challenge, says two military intelligence officers have alleged that the security services blocked police investigations into the child abuse at Kincora in the 1970s.
The judicial review is expected to last several days.
Three senior care staff at Kincora were jailed in 1981 for abusing 11 boys.
At least 29 boys were abused at the home between the late 1950s and the early 1980s.
One of the men who was later convicted, William McGrath, is believed to have been an MI5 agent.

Veterans are at no greater risk of suicide than the general public, but there is an increased risk in certain groups, the University of Glasgow research found.

People who have served in the armed forces in the past 50 years are not at greater risk of suicide than those who have not, according to a new study.

Article: However, there is an increased risk in certain groups, the University of Glasgow research found.
Overall, veterans were at no greater risk than the general public, whilst both Falklands and Gulf War veterans had a lower risk of suicide.
The team studied veterans in Scotland who served between 1960 and 2012.
The study compared suicide risk among 56,205 veterans born between 1945 and 1985 with 172,741 matched non-veterans.
While overall there was no significant difference in the figures for veterans and non-veterans, the risk increased for:
Young veterans were not found to be at increased risk - a finding at odds with an earlier study by the Centre for Suicide Prevention which suggested that ex-servicemen under the age of 24 had a much higher rate of suicide.
Asked to explain the differences, lead researcher Dr Beverly Bergman said the two studies used different data and methodologies.
She said: "We have a smaller number of veterans but have studied them over a longer time period.
"In our study we had only two veterans under the age of 25 who died by suicide. The two studies are not directly comparable."
Dr Bergman said there was growing evidence that there is no overall difference in long-term risk of suicide between veterans and non-veterans in the UK.
She added: "This is an important study which provides reassurance that military service in the last 50 years does not increase people's risk of suicide overall, but it draws our attention to those people whose increased risk may be overlooked, such as older veterans and women veterans.
"It also confirms that early service leavers have a slightly increased risk but that may not manifest itself until middle age."
The study, which used data from the Scottish Veterans Health Study to examine deaths classified as due to suicide or self-harm, is published in Occupational Medicine.

Shutter Speed overcame rain-softened ground to win the Musidora Stakes at York under Frankie Dettori and will now be aimed at next month's French Oaks.

Article: Trainer John Gosden let the unbeaten 4-7 favourite race after he walked the course and she beat runner-up Vintage Folly by a length and three quarters.
She goes to Chantilly next rather than the Oaks at Epsom, in which stablemates Enable and Coronet are top contenders.
Tasleet (14-1) took the Duke of York Stakes for trainer William Haggas.
Jim Crowley's mount won comfortably from Magical Memory in second, with Comicas third.
Shutter Speed, whose last run at Newbury saw her beat Enable into third, brought a fifth Musidora win for both Gosden and Dettori.
"We got away with it. The ground was very soft. It was hard work for her," said Dettori.
"She'll be a better horse on better ground. She's top drawer. Everything she does is very classy."
Gosden is concerned about the ground for his colt Cracksman in Thursday's Dante Stakes and will again walk the course before deciding whether he runs in the Derby trial.
BBC Sport horse racing correspondent Cornelius Lysaght
Shutter Speed's clearly in very good order and she coped well with the soggy conditions.
She'll be off to France's Oaks, staged over 'her distance' of a mile and a quarter, and Gosden will rely on Enable and Coronet in the longer Epsom Oaks.
The trainer said he was pleased to now have a month to prepare Shutter Speed for Chantilly.
Meanwhile, the gap between Thursday's Dante Stakes and the Derby is just 16 days, so Gosden's colt Cracksman may not be asked to line up in what's sure to be an examining Dante, in terms of both quality and going.

The Co-operative Bank says it is no longer up for sale, pending an announcement on fund-raising proposals aimed at safeguarding its future.

Article: Co-op Bank was forced to put itself on the market in February after it was unable to reach a strong enough footing to satisfy Bank of England regulations.
But in June, it said it was in "advanced discussions" with a group of existing investors on recapitalisation.
Now the bank says the plan has been "substantially agreed".
The Co-op Bank, in which the Co-operative Group still has a 20% stake, was rescued from the brink of collapse by a group of hedge funds in 2013.
In a statement, the bank also said talks were continuing over the separation of its pension fund from the Co-operative Group's scheme.
Under the current arrangement, the bank must carry a share of the Co-op Group's £8bn pension liabilities, something which is proving unattractive to potential investors.
Earlier this year, it reported its fifth annual loss in a row, although the £477m deficit for 2016 was an improvement on the £610m loss recorded in 2015.
When it offered itself for sale, the Co-op Bank blamed low interest rates and the higher-than-expected cost of its turnaround plan for its failure to meet the Bank's Prudential Regulation Authority rules.
The Co-op Bank has four million customers and is well known for its ethical standpoint, which its board had said made it "a strong franchise with significant potential" to prospective buyers.

Northern Ireland's economic growth will remain the lowest of the 12 UK regions in 2015, a new report has said.

Article: PwC's Northern Ireland economic outlook said this was despite overall unemployment having fallen by more than 10,000 since June 2014.
It said poor productivity remains the single biggest challenge to Northern Ireland's sustained recovery.
PwC's Esmond Birnie said the pace of recovery was "decelerating".
"Over the past seven months business confidence has been mixed, sometimes negative but always lagging the GB regions," Mr Birnie, who is PwC's chief economist in Northern Ireland, said.
"There have also been recent mixed messages around consumer confidence, with June 2015 seeing the first rise in unemployment for more than two years; this may simply be a blip - or it may be indicative of a deeper malaise.
"Currently, Northern Ireland's output is still 8% below the pre-crisis peak of 2008 and is something of a two-speed economy with employment contracting in public sector and financial services but growing fairly rapidly in advanced manufacturing, pharma, food processing and tourism.
"PwC forecasts that Northern Ireland's economic growth will remain the lowest of the 12 UK regions at around 1.8% in 2015 - lower than the 2.2% growth experienced in 2014 - and will fall again in 2016 to around 1.7%."
The report said that Northern Ireland's unemployment claimant count increased by 200 between May and June, the first month-on-month increase since December 2008.
It said that 62% of those registered as unemployed have been out of work for more than 12 months, while 19.7% of young people aged 18-25 are unemployed - well above the UK average of 13.2%.
PwC said the recent budget "confirmed that welfare reform and austerity will continue and that Northern Ireland probably faces a further four years of challenging economic circumstances, particularly around public spending".
