(PS366) [225] Radio Nottingham News with Andy .
[226] [reading] Within the past hour has announced that a review is being launched into the future of three pits in Yorkshire with the intention of closing them all down.
[227] The mines involved are and near Doncaster and near Pontefract.
[228] The company says the prospects for all three are bleak.
[229] Richard reports. []
John (PS367) [230] 's northern director told a meeting of union officials that prospects for the three pits are bleak.
[231] More coal is being produced that can be sold, even the coal burn at power stations this year is likely to be seven million tons less than expected.
[232] Half that amount comes from Yorkshire pits.
[233] says two of the collieries, and are operating at a loss.
[234] The third is producing coal cheaply but most of it is being stockpiled because no one wants to buy it.
[235] A spokesman for the National Union of Mineworkers says it's what was expected.
[236] The country will soon be without a viable coal industry, he said, and will have to rely increasingly on imported energy supplies.
(PS366) [237] [reading] Contempt writs have been served against the Home Secretary and his predecessor Kenneth Clarke.
[238] It's understood the proceedings arise from their decision to deport the legal guardian of six Nottingham children who were prohibited from leaving the country.
[239] has been looking after her younger brothers and sisters since they were made wards of court when their parents were sent back to India.
[240] This report from Jeremy . []
(PS368) [241] The family came to Britain from Assam when their home was burnt down during Hindu Sikh riots nine years ago.
[242] But after losing a protracted fight for asylum both parents were deported.
[243] Now their eldest daughter has been told to leave too, but her supporters believe the decision is a clear breach of the children's wardship order.
[244] Lawyers are expected to argue that Michael Howard and Mr Clarke are both in contempt of the court's decision by pursuing her deportation.
[245] If found guilty they could be fined and ordered to pay court costs.
[246] It'd also allow Miss 's lawyers to seek an injunction preventing the deportation which would set a legal precedent.
[247] Her supporters believe it would force the government to reexamine their deportation procedures.
(PS366) [248] [reading] The jury in the James murder trial at Preston Crown Court has been read a statement by a train driver who described how two days after James's disappearance, he saw human remains on the railway line at Walton.
[249] Two eleven year old boys deny the abduction and murder of James and the attempted abduction of another boy.
[250] Adam reports. []
(PS369) [251] The prosecution showed the jury at Preston Crown Court several bags of stones, bricks and masonry found on the railway embankment where James's body was discovered.
[252] Some of the stones were said to be stained with blood.
[253] They were also shown an iron bar.
[254] The judge Mr Justice described it as heavy and as it was handed to members of the jury he warned them not to drop it.
[255] A quantity of clothing was also shown to the court.
[256] The courtroom fell silent as the exhibits were passed round.
[257] Earlier there was evidence from a train driver who said he had seen human remains lying by the track at Walton.
[258] The trial continues.
(PS366) [259] [reading] Solicitors acting for the Princess of Wales have demanded that secret photographs of her working out in a gym should be handed over and that she should be given details of how much money was made from them.
[260] This morning writs were issued in the High Court against the editors of the and and against the gym and its owner.
[261] Police in Jersey searching for the bodies of Nicholas and Elizabeth who were killed six years ago have found what appear to be human remains.
[262] Their two sons Mark and Roderick have been charged with their murders.
[263] This morning Mark appeared in court on the island and again denied the charge.
[264] He was remanded in custody for a week.
[265] A school near Eastwood's been closed today after staff complained that fumes in the building were causing chest and throat problems.
[266] Health officials and experts from are trying to trace the cause of the gases at Junior School.
[267] People began to feel ill yesterday afternoon and today the head Jean has told all two hundred and forty four pupils to stay at home.
[268] She says experts think the fumes are coming from the drains. []
(PS36A) [269] People are experiencing a smell which is not particularly distressing.
[270] But it seems to be getting into the the the throat and and the chest.
[271] Adults have noticed throat and chest difficulties there.
[272] We've more or less pinned it down to coming from the the drainage systems.
(PS366) [273] [reading] And police on Merseyside have arrested thirteen people today in connection with the sale of the drug crack.
[274] More than two hundred officers took part in the operation which centred on the Toxteth area of the city.
[275] And the weather, overcast with rain soon reaching all parts today, becoming heavy at times, the maximum temperatures up to ten celsius fifty fahrenheit, it's going to be drier and brighter tomorrow. []
