Christmas presents to doctors or teachers may fall foul of the new anti-bribery laws. We look at the unintended consequences of the recent Bribery Act. Hospital now have targets to assess 90% of hospital admissions for deep vein thrombosis or risk a fine. But do these targets actually save lives? We hear the debate. Shoppers now buy 10% of our goods online, but are they being ripped off by excessive delivery charges? Citizens Advice Scotland shares their survey findings. We look at the new driving tests coming into force in January. And the beautifully illustated books for older children. Jan Pietkowski talks about his book.
