A new report suggests the number of dolphins dying from fishing is higher than estimated. Anna Hill speaks to Helene Peltier from La Rochelle University about her research, and gets the reaction from Dale Rodmell, Assistant Chief Executive of the National Federation of Fishermen's Organisations. Kevin Keane reports on the failing of an IT system to pay subsidies to Scottish farmers. Almost a quarter of qualified vets working in the UK come from other EU countries and many are employed in abattoirs and conducting TB tests. Vernon Harwood asks why this might be. Producer: Toby Field.
