Can you summarize the following information? | Budge will seek election at the annual general meeting on July 20
Celtic chief executive Peter Lawell and Partick Thistle managing director Ian Maxwell also intend to stand.
However, Rangers managing director Stewart Robertson has decided not to vie for one of the three available positions.
Robertson, who joined the Rangers board just over a year ago, said after "much thought and consideration" he would not seek election.
In a statement on the Rangers website, the club said they were "confident its views are being listened to and treated with the utmost respect" by other Premiership clubs.
They added "it is accepted that Rangers' voice is being heard within Hampden, both at SFA and SPFL levels."
Dundee United's Stephen Thompson beat Budge to the Premiership position last year after three rounds of votes, but quit the board in protest at the club's three point deduction and fine for fielding ineligible players in a match against Inverness in May.
He will seek election for one of the two vacant positions in the Championship alongside Hibernian's Leeann Dempster and Eric Drysdale of Raith Rovers.

Give a brief summary of the content. | A report said last week that chlorine had been used by President Bashar al-Assad's forces on two occasions.
But Russia, a close ally of Mr Assad, told the UN Security Council a number of questions still had to be clarified.
The UK and France, which back the rebellion against the president, called for sanctions to be imposed on Syria.
A September 2013 resolution states that the Security Council will impose measures under Chapter 7 of the UN Charter, which permits military action, in the event of "any use of chemical weapons by anyone" in Syria.
The resolution, which endorsed the destruction of Syria's declared stockpile of chemical weapons, was adopted a month after hundreds of people were killed when shells filled with the nerve agent sarin were fired at rebel-held suburbs of Damascus.
Western powers said only government forces could have carried out the attack, but Mr Assad and Russia blamed rebels.
In August 2015, following further deadly chemical attacks on rebel-held areas, the Security Council established a Joint Investigative Mechanism (JIM) to identify those responsible.
The international team of inspectors looked into nine cases in seven towns and determined that the Syrian air force was behind two attacks involving chlorine - in Talmanes on 21 April 2014 and Sarmin on 16 March 2015 - and that jihadist militants from Islamic State (IS) carried out one attack involving sulphur mustard.
Chlorine is a "dual-use chemical". It has many legitimate industrial functions, but its use as a weapon is banned by the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC). If high concentrations of the chemical enter the lungs it can cause death.
At a meeting of the Security Council on Tuesday, US permanent representative Samantha Power called the JIM report a "landmark" and called for swift action.
"It is the first official independent confirmation of what many of us... have presented substantial evidence of for a long time, and that is a pattern of chemical weapons use by the Syrian regime," she said.
But Russian Ambassador Vitaly Churkin insisted it was too early to discuss sanctions.
"Clearly there is a smoking gun. We know that chlorine most likely has been used - that was already the finding of the fact-finding mission before - but there are no fingerprints on the gun," he said.
Syria's permanent representative Bashar Jaafari dismissed the report's conclusions, saying they were "totally based on statements made by witnesses presented by the terrorist armed groups" and "lack any physical evidence". | Russia has said it does not accept the findings of a UN-led investigation that concluded Syria's government had used chemical weapons against civilians. |
What is a brief summary of the information below? | London receptionist Nicola Thorp, 27, says she was told to wear shoes with a "2in to 4in heel" when she arrived at finance company PwC in December.
When she refused and was sent home she set up a petition calling for the law on dress code to be changed.
Outsourcing firm Portico said "with immediate effect all our female colleagues can wear plain flat shoes".
The company initially said Ms Thorp, from Hackney, had signed its "appearance guidelines" but said it would review them.
Ms Thorp said she would have struggled to work a full day in high heels.

Is it legal to force women to wear high heels at work?
More on this story and other news from London
"I was expected to do a nine-hour shift on my feet escorting clients to meeting rooms. I said 'I just won't be able to do that in heels'," she said.
When she asked if a man would be expected to do the same shift in heels, she said she was laughed at and told to go home without pay.
"I said 'if you can give me a reason as to why wearing flats would impair me to do my job today, then fair enough', but they couldn't," she told BBC Radio London.
Despite fearing what she said could be a "negative backlash", she set up a petition calling for the law to be changed so women cannot be forced to wear high heels to work.
More than 50,000 people have signed it which triggers the requirement for a government response.
PwC said the dress code issue involving Ms Thorp at its Embankment offices last December was "not a PwC policy".
Later on Wednesday, Portico managing director Simon Pratt said the firm was "committed to being an inclusive and equal opportunities employer" and actively embraced "diversity and inclusion within all our policies".
"We are therefore making it very clear that with immediate effect, all our female colleagues can wear plain flat shoes or plain court shoes as they prefer."
"I think dress codes should reflect society and nowadays women can be smart and formal and wear flat shoes," said Ms Thorp.
"Aside from the debilitating factor, it's the sexism issue. I think companies shouldn't be forcing that on their female employees." | A firm that sent home a temp without pay for refusing to wear high heels has changed its policy. |

During the brief hearing at South Lincolnshire Coroner's Office in Boston, coroner Paul Cooper said the full inquest would look into how the shotgun was obtained and the state of the marital relationship between Mr and Mrs Hart.
He added the full inquest is due to take place on 19 October.
After the shooting, police searched the family home in the village of Moulton, five miles (8km) from the centre of Spalding.
Lincolnshire Police previously said Mr Hart "was not a shotgun certificate or firearms licence holder".

In Aberdyfi, Gwynedd, he unveiled a new community bell on the village's jetty and meet local businesses.
He was also meeting children and students at the Centre for Alternative Technology in Machynlleth, Powys.
Ms Stone, 24, who will intially hold the position of official harpist to the prince for two years, will play a harp given to the prince in 2006 by the Victor Salvi Foundation in recognition of his contribution to the promotion of the instrument.
The post is designed to help celebrate and foster musical talent in Wales, and she takes over from Claire Jones, who was appointed in June 2007.
"I am proud to be promoting the harp, a central part of our Welsh heritage, and to follow the fantastic example set by Claire," she said.
"I am excited to get started and can't wait for the coming months.
"It's a big responsibility. I hope to promote the harp as much as I can in Wales. I intend to make that my full-time job."
Ms Stone played earlier this month at the opening of the fourth Welsh assembly for the Queen, Duke of Edinburgh and the Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall.
The Guildhall School of Music graduate is currently studying under Caryl Thomas at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama in Cardiff.
She made her debut at a reception at the prince's home in Llwynywermod, Carmarthenshire.
Her official debut coincided with a reception to mark the launch of the Cambrian Mountains Ambassadors Scheme.
The project aims to promote rural enterprise, protect the environment and sustainable tourism in mid Wales.
It was launched by the prince, who wants to help sustain traditional upland farms and rural communities.
Before the reception, he visited the seaside village of Aberdyfi to unveil the new jetty bell, which rings at high tide.
He saw beach donkeys and visited local businesses, including a Prince's Trust-assisted jewellers.
He was also due to arrive at the Centre for Alternative Technology in Machynlleth, by funicular railway.

Summarize the provided information. | Anthony Churton, 67, was found dead at his home in Crescent Close at about 08:20 BST on Monday.
North Wales Police said Mr Churton, former owner of Churtons wine bar in Rossett, lived alone at the property and was a "vulnerable man".
Three other people have also been arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender.
John Jamieson and Graham King, both 36, left Peter Shickle dying in his flat in Stevenage with 75 injuries, last November Luton Crown Court heard.
Jamieson admitted he hit the father of two twice with the TV thinking Mr Shickle was holding a Stanley knife.
A pathologist said the injuries were consistent with the TV being used as well as punches, kicks and stamps.
Dr Nat Carey told the court the 58-year-old suffered a traumatic brain injury, 16 fractured ribs, damage to his voice box, a fracture to the nose and jaw and a split liver.
The court had been told that Jamieson from Wigram Way, Stevenage, and King, from Harrow Court, Stevenage, had gone to Mr Shickle's flat a few days after he had a row in a pub with Jamieson's mother.
Prosecutor Martin Mulgrew said Jamieson had decided on "a plan for brutal retribution" after "fuming" that Mr Shickle had grabbed his mother by the throat and hit her head hit against a wall.
On the day of the killing the two men were said to have looked for Mr Shickle in two Stevenage pubs.
Jamieson told a barmaid at the Old Post Office pub: "If you see him. Tell him he is a dead man."
King, who was described as "muscle back-up" did not give evidence, but his barrister Abbas Lakha QC said there was no evidence of his client going to the flat to cause any harm.
Both defendants will be sentenced on Friday following psychiatric reports requested by the judge.
It happened on the seam of East and West Jerusalem, on the same junction as a previous attack last year.
Police say the driver tried to stab people before he was shot and seriously wounded by a security guard.
The incident came shortly after Palestinian officials voted to halt security co-operation with Israel.
Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld described it as a "terrorist attack", adding that the injured officers are in a "light, moderate condition" in hospital.
Local media have identified the attacker as Mohammed Salaymeh and there are reports of clashes between Palestinians and Israeli forces around his home in East Jerusalem.
The attack took place as the streets were busy with people celebrating the Jewish holiday of Purim.
The Palestine Liberation Organisation (PLO) voted to suspend co-operation, part of 1993 peace accords with Israel, at a meeting on Thursday night. The move requires the stamp of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in order to be put into effect.
It follows Israel's decision to suspend the transfer of taxes to the Palestinians after they applied to join the International Criminal Court to pursue war crimes allegations against Israel.
Last year, Palestinian militants killed three Israelis and an Ecuadorian woman in attacks using vehicles in Jerusalem as tensions soared between Israel and the Palestinians.
Israel has occupied East Jerusalem since the 1967 Middle East war and annexed it in a move not recognised internationally.
It regards the whole of Jerusalem as its "eternal and indivisible" capital, while the Palestinians want East Jerusalem as the capital of a future Palestinian state.

What is a brief summary of the information below? | French workers blocked roads and damaged a train line by starting fires. Migrants, trying to reach the UK, took advantage of the chaos and boarded lorries stuck in the traffic.
Drivers waiting to board ferries and those using Eurotunnel describe the wait with many witnessing hundreds of migrants along the side of the road.
Charlie a lorry driver in Calais described the situation as "utter chaos"
"I myself have been threatened with machetes and crow bars from migrants trying to gain access to mine and surrounding vehicles, when we stop them.
While waiting to board the train I saw one migrant removed from the trailers axles.
It took just shy of 11 hours 30 minutes from joining the queue to boarding the train. Whilst this has been one of the longest waits yet it is regularly like this.
I can't see a clear end in sight unfortunately."
Truck driver Mark was in Calais on Tuesday
"I have just spent practically the whole day trying to get over to Calais in my truck. I opted for Eurotunnel as I imagined the delays would be less. How wrong was I!
Once boarded we breathed a sigh of relief as I was finally on the way. After about 20 minutes the train ground to a halt within the tunnel.
We were not given much info but after about 15 minutes we were told that we were returning to the UK.
Once back in Ashford we waited for a couple of hours before being told we would be going back to Calais. The Eurotunnel staff came down with sandwiches and crisps as by now we were all starving.
On getting off in France I witnessed large queues of trucks waiting for the port to open plus large numbers of migrants.
As a truck driver doing this crossing on average once a week something must be done to curb this migrant problem.
We should not have to put our lives, cargo and vehicles in danger and the UK government should do more to protect us.
We should not be expected to be unofficial immigration officials, we are doing an important job and should be given guarantees of our safety and a smooth passage through to the UK from Calais.
The situation will only get worse and the UK with its soft policies are entirely to blame.
We truck drivers are at the sharp end of it and one day one of us is going to get killed."
Richard Jameson runs a small transport company with drivers making the Channel crossing each week
"The situation out there is getting increasingly bad. I am seriously concerned for the safety of my drivers!
I currently have a truck stuck in Belgium trying to return to the port of Calais, I am not sending him into the Eurotunnel terminal just yet as I know he will be caught in traffic and will have migrants trying to break into our trailer.
I have another truck heading towards Dover right now and I know he will be caught in the traffic queuing in operation Stack!
The level of intimidation and violence my drivers (and all the rest) are receiving by the immigrants rises by the day as they travel through Calais.
They are openly throwing rocks at any truck drivers who try and warn other drivers about illegal migrants climbing on trailers.
Last month two migrants climbed under our trailer and hung onto the axles while it was being made to queue out on the motorway.
Luckily another driver warned my driver and we were able to get the French Police to remove them.
My drivers and myself are worried for their safety and no one seems to care."
David Robinson-Smith was travelling back to the UK on Tuesday
"I'm travelling back on a motorbike from a trip to the French Alps.
Coming into the port area it was absolutely flooded with migrants.
Lots of immigrants outside were jumping on board articulated lorries. Police are pepper spraying underneath the trailers and they drop out like flies.
We were filtering through and they seemed quite jovial. None of them was particularly aggressive to us.
But we've heard people saying they had to wind up their windows and lock their doors, so I can see how it could be intimidating.
Now we're just waiting for news at the terminal. We can't leave and most people, like us, are just hanging on for news." | Cross-Channel transport is starting to return to normal after a strike by ferry workers which gave hundreds of migrants the chance to try to board queuing lorries. |

It is said to have been carrying more than 100 people, many of them Muslim pilgrims.
The accident occurred near the Wat Sanam Chai temple, a popular tourist destination.
More than 30 people were injured and dozens are still missing.
Passengers were travelling from Ayutthaya back to Nonthaburi, a suburb of the capital Bangkok, after attending an Islamic religious rite in the city, the Bangkok Post said.

Vardy headed the Foxes back into the match, before blasting home his ninth of the season in injury time to keep the Foxes in fifth.
Relive the match action here
All the Premier League action and reaction
Not judging by their second-half display.
The Foxes have scored in every Premier League match this season and, sparked into life by the half-time introduction of forwards Riyad Mahrez and Nathan Dyer, they earned an unlikely point with a stunning final 45 minutes.
Southampton were in complete control at half-time but, helped by the trickery of Mahrez and the clinical finishing of Vardy, the Foxes again showed they should never be ruled out.
The draw is the seventh point Leicester have earned from a losing position this season.
It would be very hard to leave the Leicester and England striker at home in the summer on this form.
The 28-year-old, who was playing for Fleetwood in League Two in 2012, became just the fourth Englishman to score in six consecutive Premier League matches this century when he headed home to give the Foxes hope after the break.
Before he hammered in a late equaliser, the striker shot over from close range and was a constant threat for Leicester after the break.
Vardy, already in the England squad, is playing with a double fracture to his wrist, but looks determined to push his international cause with the likes of Liverpool's Danny Ings and Daniel Sturridge struggling with injury.
He now has three more goals than any of his Premier League rivals.

The introduction of Leicester substitutes Mahrez and Dyer at the start of the second half changed the pattern of the game.
Algerian Mahrez has been a key player for the Foxes this season and the forward proved so again, creating chance after chance playing just behind striker Vardy.
It was his pass that created the equaliser while Swansea City loanee Dyer also made a big impact on the wing, crossing for Vardy's opener.
Southampton should have had the game out of sight, with Sadio Mane delaying after rounding goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel when 2-0 up, but the hosts tired as the match wore on with all 10 of their starting outfield players involved in international duty in the past week.
Southampton boss Ronald Koeman on BBC Sport: "It was a difficult game. Defensively we did well in the first half and we scored from set pieces.
"But I expected a difficult second half because we know one of Leicester's strengths is unbelievable spirit and we have to be more clever.

"They deserved at least one point. They did two good changes after half-time. Mahrez created difficulties for us."
Leicester boss Claudio Ranieri on BBC Sport: "We have fantastic spirit. We believe everything could be possible.
"We created a lot of chances. It is important to have good players on the bench and I have very good players who can change the match.
"Jamie Vardy is very important for us. I believe in this team. When we are desperate we make more, more and more."

"The players were anxious to do well. We could feel that. We changed the shape a little bit and it probably allowed us to freshen it up in different areas.
"The lads that have come in have added to the energy levels and got us going. The crowd, who we asked to get behind us, were terrific. They've helped as well."
Rochdale manager Keith Hill told BBC Radio Manchester:

"We didn't start on the front foot. I don't think we can concede ground to Shrewsbury like we did in the first 20 minutes or so.
"I don't feel as though we've been anywhere near the way that we started the last four games. Both goals are sloppy.
"I feel as though we rode our luck in the first half. Every player has got to turn up individually and say 'right, I'm going to win my battle'."
Tommy Ward died on 23 February 2016, almost five months after a violent robbery at his house in Maltby, South Yorkshire.
About £30,000 was thought to have been stolen from his Salisbury Road home during the raid.
New footage shows a Saab 93 twice driven past the ex-miner's property less than an hour before the attack.
Det Ch Insp Victoria Short said the vehicle was seen turning right onto Salisbury Road from Grange Lane at about 05:15 BST on 1 October 2015.
It drove past Mr Ward's house before making a U-turn and driving back down the road. It was later seen on CCTV turning back onto Grange Lane from Salisbury Road at 05:40.
Ms Short said: "There is a 25-minute gap between the car arriving on Salisbury Road and leaving. Through extensive enquiries there is no evidence or suggestion as to why the vehicle would be parked up on the road at this time, or that it could have driven anywhere else in the surrounding area."
Mr Ward was found badly beaten in his home before 07:00 GMT by a carer. He later died from his injuries in hospital.
Ms Short added: "We know at 04:56 on the morning Mr Ward was attacked, there were no lights on at his property.
"However, at 05:58 the property can be seen lit up and Mr Ward was discovered by his carer 45 minutes later."
Ms Short said she "strongly" believed the vehicle was "connected to the attack".

Saracens director of rugby Mark McCall fears more players will face cards or suspensions due to "accidents".
His counterparts at Ulster and Ospreys have also voiced concerns.
Contact with the head in "reckless tackles" will be penalised with at least a yellow card.
"Players get bigger over the years, creating bigger impacts," Pearson said.
"Unfortunately the laws haven't changed a lot. We have to be looking more and more to protect players within the current laws."

The new sanctions took effect officially from 3 January, with players at Ospreys, Scarlets and Ulster sin-binned in the Pro12 last weekend, while Saracens duo Richard Barrington and Brad Barritt have been cited for a dangerous tackle that knocked out Exeter Chiefs lock Geoff Parling.
Barrington was sent off for his role in the collision.
Pearson, who refereed 29 Tests, officiated at the 2007 and 2011 World Cups and works as the Scottish Rugby Union's match officials high performance manager, argues officials are not seeking to punish all forms of head contact.
"We all have to realise accidents will happen on the rugby pitch," the 50-year-old told BBC Scotland. "What we're trying to do with these is get the guy who is targeting the player's head.
"That's the major message - protect the head. There will be tackles where the head contact is made - a player going in low to the ground is pretty difficult to tackle without getting contact somewhere around his upper body.
"That's the kind of tackle that wouldn't be targeting the player's head. The tackles we're after are where players are stood up and you can see the big swinging arm coming in around the upper shoulders, neck, chin, and head area."
The application and timing of the tighter punishments have also drawn criticism, with former Wales fly-half Jonathan Davies saying inexperienced referees have "gone berserk" with their policing of the tackle.
Rugby Players Association chairman Christian Day argues the "massive" mid-season changes have come with "little education or explanation" for players, with the decisive rounds of European Champions and Challenge Cup pool fixtures coming later this month and the Six Nations Championship beginning on 4 February.
Pearson accepts the game may have to endure short-term controversies to provide its players with a safer future.
"This isn't really new", he said. "The directives have come out in the press recently as new, but the referees right back to November had this kind of message.
"One thing that has to be clear is they're not really law changes, they're just enforcing the law a bit tighter than previously. The analogy we're using is, if you're driving and you're caught speeding, the speed limit's the same - all that happens now is the fine's a little bit more hefty.
"We've had November, December, and we're halfway through January - we've had a fair bit of time to be able to adjust to them.
"There were a lot of examples [of players adjusting] over the weekend where rather than going in high to hit a player, one tackler goes in round the legs, another player stands off and tries to jackal the ball as soon as that player hits the floor.
"The professional players are training four or five times a week, they'll adapt pretty quickly. I would imagine in a couple of months' time, we'll not be talking about this subject.

Summarize the passage below. | Emery, half-sister of comedian Dick, also played Grandma in the original cast of the Billy Elliot stage musical.
Its director, Stephen Daldry, paid tribute to her "zest for life", saying she had been "at the heart of the Billy Elliot family for over a decade".
Born in London in 1930, her other roles included Mrs Rocket in the BBC's Julia Jekyll and Harriet Hyde.
Emery appeared with her half-brother in eight episodes of The Dick Emery Show before landing her Rentaghost role in 1976.
Together with her opportunistic husband Harold, her character rented out ghosts to members of the public in need of spectral assistance.
Emery played Billy's grandmother at London's Victoria Palace theatre from 2005 to 2010, going on to appear in the Cameron Mackintosh musical Betty Blue Eyes.
When that show closed, she returned to the Palace - a theatre she first performed in as a child - before announcing her retirement in 2015.
In 2010 she received a lifetime achievement award from the British Music Hall Society.
In his tribute, Daldry described her as "a child of the theatre... who never seemed old and never took the profession for granted."
"What a treat it was to have known her," he went on, saying the actress would be "remembered fondly" and "deeply missed".
Reece Shearsmith, with whom Emery appeared in Betty Blue Eyes, also paid tribute on Twitter, remembering her as being "tireless, funny and with boundless energy".
Similar sentiments were expressed by the choreographer Sir Matthew Bourne, who said she had been "beloved by everyone who knew her and had the joy of working with her".

Asked if this investment was coming too late for English football to catch up with its rivals, Glenn said: "We start where we start from, don't we?
"Football is felt about so strongly in England with millions of people playing.
"We've got money in the game to invest in these things so it's never too late.
"This is an acceleration of a good start but I think there's still a long way to go."
Former England full-back Danny Mills, who was part of the FA Commission that reported on how to strengthen the national game in 2014, said the new facilities are just one of the changes that need to be made.
"You have to start somewhere," he said. "Back in 2014, we had just under 700 full-size 3G pitches. In contrast, Germany had nearly 4,000.
"These hubs will be the focal point. It is not perfect, we are far behind. But it is a start.
"I am a massive advocate of switching to a summer league for kids when the weather is warmer and the pitches are in better condition.
"In the commission report, we talked about capping wages for players to keep them from earning too much too soon, and clubs are starting to take that on themselves.
"We talked about clubs playing younger players in lower league and cup competitions and that is starting to happen."

Can you provide an overview of this section? | Chris Hume, 28, admitted the offences which took place in a Glasgow flat on 11 October last year.
The High Court in Glasgow heard he had never been alone with the child until the day of the incident. When his parents returned home, the boy told them what had happened.
Hume is due to be sentenced next month.
The court heard that following the incident, Hume ran off leaving behind two phones. The family then contacted the police.
Police Scotland's Cybercrime Unit managed to extract footage from the accused's phone.
The boy can be heard on the footage saying "I want to see the camera" and the accused replies "Quick, quick. Before your daddy comes".

The social mobility and child poverty commission said Scotland had lost its position as the country with the lowest levels of child poverty in the UK.
However, Scotland had a lower level of relative poverty after housing costs.
The report called on the Scottish government to widen access to higher education for disadvantaged pupils.
The Scottish government should have a target of 10% of the most deprived school pupils getting places at the most selective, "ancient" universities, the commission recommended.
The State of the Nation 2014 report is the second annual publication from the commission, which was established under the Child Poverty Act 2010.
Its findings showed there were 180,000 children in relative poverty in Scotland - 30,000 more than last year - while 200,000 children were in absolute poverty - also up 30,000 on the previous year.
The report also pointed to a forecast from think tank the Institute for Fiscal Studies, which suggested 50,000 more children could be in relative poverty by 2020.
The authors defined relative poverty as living in a household with less than 60% of the contemporary median income, while absolute poverty applied to households with less than 60% of the median income as it stood in 2010-11.
Despite the increase in the numbers living in poverty, the report said that "progress in Scotland has been more rapid than elsewhere in the UK, particularly when looking at poverty after housing costs".
Scotland has a lower level of relative poverty before housing costs than Wales and Northern Ireland, but about the same as England.
After housing costs Scotland had a lower level of relative poverty than the other UK nations.
Scotland also had a lower level of absolute poverty before housing costs than England, Wales or Northern Ireland and "a considerably lower level of poverty after housing costs".
The proportion of pupils entering higher education from the most advantaged areas was 32.5%, compared to 9.7% in the most disadvantaged areas.
The percentages entering the highly selective "ancient universities" were 7.6% from deprived areas versus 16.9% from non-deprived areas.
The report added: "The Scottish government should also review the total financial support package for the most disadvantaged undergraduate and postgraduate students, particularly in relation to recent reductions in maintenance grants."
The commission said there were 2.3 million children in poverty across the UK, and the UK government will fail to meet a target to reduce child poverty by half by 2020.
Former Labour minister Alan Milburn, who chairs the commission, told the BBC there was a risk that young people "simply do not have the opportunity to progress".
Carlos Saura's French- and Spanish-language movie begins filming in summer 2013, according to Variety.
Banderas told Spanish newspaper El Pais that Picasso "deserves a lot of respect... I was born four blocks from where he was born".
33 Days refers to the time Picasso spent on the Guernica mural.
The famous painting captured the artist's response to the destruction of the Basque town of Guernica in 1937 during the Spanish Civil War.
In his El Pais interview, Banderas said Picasso was "a character that has pursued me for a long time".
Variety reports the film will also focus on Picasso's relationship with his lover, French artist Dora Maar.
Banderas is no stranger to art biopics, having appeared in a film about the life of Frida Kahlo in 2002 opposite Salma Hayek and Alfred Molina.
Picasso was previously portrayed on screen by Sir Anthony Hopkins in 1996, by Omid Djalili in 2004's Modigliani and by Marcial Di Fonzo Bo in last year's Midnight in paris. | England batsman Sam Robson has extended his contract with Middlesex and will remain at Lord's until the end of 2018.

But now there's some good news. The number of tigers living in the wild has increased from 3,200 in 2010 to 3,890 today.
It is the first time in conservation history that tiger numbers have gone up.
A big meeting is taking place in India on Monday. The governments of countries where tigers live, like India, Russia and Nepal, are meeting to see what else they can do to make even more improvements to the number of tigers living in the wild.
It is hoped that by the time the next Chinese Year of the Tiger comes round in 2022 the number of tigers living in the wild could double.
However, experts who protect the tigers are still not completely convinced. 100 years ago there were as many as 100,000 tigers in the wild. So even though these new figures are an improvement, there is still work to be done. | Tigers are an endangered species, under threat from the destruction of their homes and from illegal poaching by people who want to make money from their fur and teeth. |
Give a brief summary of the provided passage. | Hans Riegel, the son of the sweet maker's founder, died of heart failure in Bonn, the company said in a statement.
Mr Riegel was in charge of marketing and distribution for Haribo and invented its "kids and adults love it so" slogan.
Mr Riegel inherited the firm from his father in 1946 and built it up into a firm that now employs 6,000 people.
The company, which also makes sweets in the shape of cola bottles, jelly beans and milk bottles, has 20 factories across Europe and an annual turnover of about $2.5bn (£1.6bn).
Haribo is derived from the founder's name and the German city where it is based - HAns RIegel, BOnn. | The boss of German gummi bear maker Haribo has died aged 90. |
Can you summarize this passage? | Much of the tension has focused on the al-Aqsa mosque compound, a hugely important site in Islam and Judaism.
The militant Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas had called for a "day of rage" over al-Aqsa.
Palestinians have also been angered by Israeli plans that could allow police to open fire on stone-throwers.
An Israeli motorist died earlier in the week in an accident apparently caused by a rock-throwing attack in Jerusalem.
Several security incidents were reported on Friday:
The al-Aqsa mosque compound itself was reported to be quiet on Friday. Israeli police set up checkpoints outside the site, limiting the age of worshippers to 40 and above for men.
The compound - known to Jews as the Temple Mount and to Muslims as al-Haram al-Sharif - is the holiest site in Judaism, and contains the al-Aqsa Mosque - the third holiest site in Islam.
Tensions have been running high in Jerusalem since Israel banned two Muslim groups which confront Jewish visitors to the compound.
Jing-Yueh Huang-Porterfield alleged that a manager at the Wah Hep Chinese Community Association in County Armagh, made sexually offensive remarks.
She said she contacted the Equality Commission after reading an article on the BBC News NI website.
Her former employer in Craigavon said it sincerely regretted any upset felt.
Mrs Huang-Porterfield, from Portadown in County Armagh, was an administration worker at the welfare centre between February 2015 and October 2016.
She said she raised a grievance with her employer but became ill due to the stress of the situation and felt she had no option but to resign.
"The men would always joke around in a sexual way which made me uncomfortable and upset," she said.
"It started to get more and more serious so I decided to take action."
Her husband flagged up an online story about two sisters who settled sexual harassment claims against a fast food restaurant in Belfast.
The couple decided to contact the Equality Commission, which oversees the Northern Ireland's equality laws.
"Just because I am female doesn't mean I should go into work and be bullied," she said.
"We are trying as hard as anyone else to survive and make a difference.
"We don't need to take this kind of rubbish."
She added that she was happy with the outcome, particularly her former employers' agreement to work with the Equality Commission.
The Equality Commission, which helped bring the case, said it had "impacted on her dignity at work".
"The crucial thing for Jing was that these comments were unwanted - it was uninvited by her," said Anne McKernan, director of legal services at the Equality Commission.
"She felt that this effectively led to her feeling belittled, demeaned and diminished in the workplace."
The Wah Hep Chinese Community Association has said it will liaise with the commission to review its equal opportunities and sexual harassment policies and procedures.
It also affirmed its commitment to the principle of equality of opportunity in employment.
Mrs Huang-Porterfield said she was now moving on with her life and praised the commission for its assistance.
"It is great you can access these organisations for help and advice," she said.
"We moved from Taiwan and we did not move thousands of miles to be bullied, so that's why I thought I had to do something about it." | Israel has deployed hundreds of extra police to Jerusalem after days of clashes between Palestinian protesters and security forces.

Give a brief summary of the provided passage. | The Direct Energie rider took advantage of a lapse in concentration from Team Sky's Nicolas Roche to beat the Irishman in a sprint finish.
Roche was also second in the overall standings, six seconds behind Voeckler.
Bury's Adam Yates (Orica) was Britain's highest finisher, as he was third in the stage and fourth overall.
Sunday's final stage, a 198km route from Middlesbrough to Scarborough, contained six categorised climbs.
Team Sky set a punishing pace in wet and gruelling conditions after taking it on at half distance and with 44km to go they had five riders at the head of the leading group.
Roche attacked on the ascent at Harwood Dale and took with them Voeckler, Yates, Anthony Turgis (Cofidis) and Steven Kruijswijk (LottoNL).
It was Voeckler who clung on the to back of Roche as the Team Sky sprinter attacked again in the descent into Scarborough.
Voeckler, who finished third last year after missing out in a sprint finish, used that experience to employ some cat and mouse tactics, as he tracked Roche along the resort's seafront in front of huge crowds on the town's famous grass banks.
Roche suffered a momentary lapse in concentration, causing him to look the wrong way as Voeckler flew past him with the finishing line in sight to leave his rival in his wake.
Voeckler told ITV4: "It wasn't just with the strength in my legs that I used, but also my head.
"It was difficult to follow the attack of Team Sky at the climbs, so I decided on a little more patience.
"Then I knew to launch the sprint at 300 metres. Although it was early, with the wind at my back, it was not so bad."
And in a tribute to the Yorkshire public that came out in huge numbers despite persistent drizzle, he added: "I feel like this is home because the crowd were shouting my name."
The Tour de Yorkshire is a legacy of the county's hosting of 2014 Tour de France's Grand Depart. More than two million people are estimated to have lined the three-day route.
Miqdad Al-Nuaimi was suspended in May over tweets including: "Jews in whose name #Israeli #Zionist regime commit war crimes should worry: its's same arrogant mentality as #nazis".
The Iraqi-born councillor has now been told by letter he has been cleared.
"I feel great," he told BBC Wales. "I've always campaigned against all forms of racism and discrimination."
Mr Al-Nuaimi, a councillor for the Stow Hill ward, had been suspended as part of an internal Labour inquiry into anti-Semitism launched following outrage at comments by the former London mayor Ken Livingstone.
The councillor insisted he had a right to be critical of Israel, saying at the time of his suspension: "How can I be anti-Semitic when I myself am Semitic?"
After learning he had been cleared, Mr Al-Nuaimi said: "The lifting of the suspension has vindicated my stand.
"I make personal tweets - people might construe the wrong meaning.
"I suppose that's a lesson for me.

Metatarsals are the five long bones in the forefoot which connect the ankle bones to those of the toes.
The first is linked to the big toe and the fifth, on the outer foot, links to the little toe.
Together, the five metatarsals act as a unit to help share the load of the body, and they move position to cope with uneven ground.
Injuries usually occur as a result of a direct blow to the foot, a twisting injury or over-use.
Medical experts recommend rest with no exercise and sport for four to eight weeks.
The patient might be asked to wear walking boots or stiff-soled shoes to protect the injury while it heals.
If the cause is over-use, then treatment can vary hugely. Training habits, equipment used and athletic technique should all be investigated.
It all depends on the damage and which metatarsal bone is involved. It is impossible to put a timescale on recovery from a stress injury.
With an impact fracture, after the plaster and protective boot is not needed (usually after four to six weeks), it will be a case of exercise and increasing weight-bearing activities.
Ice packs, strapping and even the use of oxygen tents can be used to assist recovery.
Full return to action can be anything from another four weeks and upwards - depending on the extent of initial damage. Young bones heal quicker. | Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola says forward Gabriel Jesus may not play again this season after breaking a metatarsal bone in his foot. |
Write a short summary of the following excerpt. | Scott Sight has been used in the USA for the last six months.
It provides a firefighter with a small camera that attaches to existing masks and allows them to see thermal images on a micro-screen in real time.
Traditionally, handheld equipment has been used which limits movement and means only one is used per crew.
The new device was developed by Flint-based Taylor Dowding Innovation (TDI) in partnership with Scott Safety, a leading manufacturer of personal safety equipment.
TDI argues that it can help save lives by giving firefighters more information in smoke filled environments.
The company is part of the growing Welsh technology sector which employs 39,000 people.
TDI started four years ago as a specialist in video and hazardous environments.
Most of the key parts were developed over the last nine months.
Nick Taylor, chief technology officer, said: "Hand-held thermal imagers can be quite a bit more costly so there is an opportunity for more fire fighters to have them and this is also completely hands-free, which is also beneficial."
"A lot of this is down to the miniaturisation possible with electronics, while thermal-imaging sensor elements are more integrated and the development of small displays and better technology has improved, driven by mobile phone developments."
According to the technology network, Estnet, there are 3,100 companies operating in the "chips to clicks" sector which contributes £8.3bn to the Welsh economy.
Estnet managing director Avril Lewis said the rate of technological development meant ideas could come to market very quickly.
"The technology industry is crucial to Wales and the Welsh economy, because we underpin other key economic sectors, the public sector and the social environment," she said.
"We're employing nearly 39,000 people and forecasting 7% growth over the next three years. We're a high-value industry and, as a result, we need to attract high-value people - and it's a well-paid, interesting industry.
"Another part of Estnet is ensuring we have the right skills coming through and we're working very hard with universities to ensure graduates have good-employability skills so they can help our businesses hit the ground running faster." | Ground-breaking thermal imaging software developed in Flintshire is being launched for firefighters in Europe. |

The city regulator, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), has moved a step closer to the idea as part of its plan to expose poor savings rates.
For the second year running, it said some savers are getting an annual return of as little as 0.01%.
Some savers with £1,000 to invest are therefore earning just 10p a year.
From December this year, banks and building societies will have to provide a "summary box" on statements, giving basic information about savings rates which will make their accounts easier to compare with others.
But the FCA wants to put further pressure on providers who give poor returns.
Having carried out a series of trials, it has rejected the idea of a "switching box" - which would prompt savers to switch to a different account with the same bank.
It has also decided against a tear-off form, which would have allowed customers to switch account by post.
However, trials of SMS text alerts and email reminders were found to have a positive effect on persuading people to switch accounts.
It will therefore consider the idea in more detail in the months ahead.
Among the worst savings-rates offenders named by the FCA were:
The FCA's full list reflects savings rates between April and June 2016.

Can you provide a summary of this content? | The city of 200,000 people is the capital of Helmand province, parts of which have been seized back by the militant group.
The new assault is their most concerted push yet into the city, in the south of the country.
At least 14 people were killed by a suicide bomber in Lashkar Gah on Monday. including 10 police officers.
The city was the scene of heavy fighting between the Taliban and Nato-led forces before their withdrawal in 2014.
Militant forces are said to have taken Bolan, an area close to the city centre, and are also said to control Nawa, which is often called the gateway to Lashkar Gah.
A local politician told the BBC that Taliban militants came within two kilometres of the governor's compound.
However, a provincial government spokesman denied that areas close to the city centre were being contested. Officials said fighters have been pushed back to the outskirts of the city.
Thousands of people fled Helmand in August as Taliban fighters increased their activity, with many taking shelter in Lashkar Gah.
Authorities have closed the airport as fighting continues.
Helmand province is both a fertile farming region and a centre for opium production, bordering Pakistan on one end and covering major routes between cities.
Lashkar Gah is seen as the key to holding the entire province, and would represent a major victory for the Taliban.
The BBC's South Asia correspondent, Jill McGivering, said the fall of the city would be a "symbolic disaster" for government forces and the international community.

Write a concise summary for the following article. | Just as the gap showed at first-team level in Sunday's Scottish Cup semi-final, there was a huge difference in quality in their under-20 sides.
Captain Sam Wardrop and Calvin Miller netted before half-time, with Miller having a hand in the first.
And Aidan McIlduff struck powerfully in the second period to seal victory.
Celtic, who have now won the tournament 15 times, dominated with winger Michael Johnston in dazzling form on the right and Miller impressing on the left.
The two of them combined to give their team the lead after 38 minutes, working the ball from the left to set up Wardrop, who fired low into the net.
Their superiority was underlined with just a minute of the first half to go, the Rangers defence failing to deal with a straightforward ball down the middle.
Brothers Robby - the goalie - and Ross McCrorie - the team captain - got themselves in a dreadful mix-up and Miller took full advantage to poke the ball into an empty net.
Even at that stage it looked over as a contest.
Celtic scored their third with keeper McCrorie unable to prevent a shot from McIlduff finding the net.
Throughout the match Rangers toiled to trouble keeper Conor Hazard, who had nothing much more to do than deal with a clutch of crosses and the occasional weak attempt on goal, although in fairness they fielded a much younger side than their opponents.
However, Celtic won the cup without conceding a goal throughout the entire tournament.
The teams were watched by their respective first-team managers Brendan Rodgers and Pedro Caixinha and it was clear which would be feeling better about the future.
Celtic under-20s head coach Tommy McIntyre described his side as "worthy winners".
And he said of Johnston: "He's got a lot of talent. As long as he listens to the coaching staff and obviously the manager, we're hoping he'll at least progress.

Write a short summary of the following excerpt. | The number eight sustained the injury in Canterbury Crusaders' 48-21 victory over South Africa's Cheetahs in Super Rugby on Saturday.
The 31-year-old, who has won 97 caps, is expected to lead the All Blacks in their three-Test series against the British and Irish Lions.
The tour begins on 3 June with the first Test in Auckland on 24 June.
Read left the field just before half-time in Bloemfontein on Saturday and later had surgery on a fracture at the base of his right thumb.
"It is extremely disappointing for Kieran and the All Blacks," said Crusaders assistant coach Jason Ryan.
"The guy has worked so hard off the field to get his hand right from the surgery he had during the off-season and has been world-class since returning to the field.
"Obviously it's disappointing and will be concerning for the All Blacks."
Read also missed the first six rounds of the Super Rugby competition and only returned to action on 14 April following his wrist surgery.
Flanker Jerome Kaino, a two-time World Cup winner, is also expected to be out for four to six weeks after surgery on a meniscus tear, but is likely to be fit for the Lions series.
The Lions, who will be captained by Sam Warburton, start their tour against a New Zealand Barbarians side in Whangarei on 3 June.
BBC Radio 5 live rugby reporter Chris Jones
"Considering all the cards are firmly stacked in New Zealand's favour, any slight setback to the All Blacks' preparation will provide some much-needed encouragement to Lions supporters.
"Kaino has long been a class operator on the blindside, but at the age of 34 is perhaps not guaranteed his place in the side; Read on the other hand is one of the All Blacks' talismen, an ever-present at number eight since his debut in 2008, and if he doesn't make the first Test, he will be sorely missed."
St George's says the checks would help tackle health tourism and would only be for non-urgent patients - emergency cases would get automatic care.
It says such a move is in line with what guidelines recommend.
But critics say the checks could be potentially dangerous.
St George's says it has a duty to use resources wisely, as well as provide care and treatment to patients requiring the hospital's services. The hospital has a high number of patients from overseas who are not eligible for NHS treatment.
The government said a pilot was a good idea and it would be keen to see the results.
The trust's board papers from October make clear that "if no action is taken, from December 2016 the cost of health care given to non-eligible patients could be £4m-£5m per annum".
Currently, antenatal ward staff ask patients to fill in forms with proof of eligibility, including passport details or other ID, when they book in for care. But some patients leave these parts of the form blank.
The hospital says it wants to tighten up its checks.
A spokesman for St George's University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust said: "Like many London Trusts, we treat a high number of patients from overseas who are not eligible for NHS treatment.
"The guidelines state that hospitals should endeavour to check patients for their eligibility when accessing non-emergency NHS treatment. We are not doing this effectively enough at present, and are looking at ways in which we can improve this."
Others are not convinced.
Cathy Warwick of the Royal College of Midwives said: "I would ask the trust to clarify their policy and to give assurances that all pregnant women who need care will receive it, no matter what their immigration status.
"To be clear, the law says, and government policy states, that trusts must offer care to women in labour, irrespective of their immigration status in the country."
She said the move could be dangerous because "it could deter women from seeking care in a timely fashion. This could potentially have a serious impact on the health of the mother and their baby and the outcome of the pregnancy."
A Department of Health spokesperson said: "NHS Trusts and Foundation Trusts in England are legally obliged to check whether patients are eligible for non-emergency NHS treatment free at the point of use, and recover costs from the overseas patients who are not normally resident in the UK where charges apply. We welcome St George's pilot to test new processes to recoup costs from overseas patients and look forward to the results." | New Zealand captain Kieran Read could be sidelined for up to six weeks after having surgery on a fractured thumb.

Where radio fiction met reality, Paul Trueman, a fan of The Archers, raised £171,000 for domestic abuse victims.
The 41-year-old was inspired to raise money for Refuge by the Radio 4 soap's story of Helen Titchener, a character who fled her abusive husband.
Earlier this year she was tried, and cleared, of the attempted murder of Rob.
"The tale gripped me," he said. "Very quickly people began donating and even sharing their own stories of abuse."
Mr Trueman, who works in marketing, has now been appointed trustee for a domestic abuse charity in his home county of Devon.

The first trip took place at the newly-established hub in Largs, just six months after the scheme was announced.
Dame Ellen joined two groups, aged between eight and 24, for the four-day inaugural venture.
During the trip the groups spent three nights sleeping on board the 38ft to 48ft cruising yachts.
The trip involved various stopovers, giving the youngsters the chance to test their new skills and rebuild their confidence.
Dame Ellen, who broke the world record for the fastest solo circumnavigation of the globe in 2005, founded the Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust in 2003.
It has received £55,000 in funding from the People's Postcode Lottery, of which £40,000 was used to establish the Largs hub. Previously, young Scots had to travel to the Isle of Wight to take part.
Dame Ellen said the charity's work on the Isle of Wight had made a positive impact on people's lives, and the Largs hub could be "just as life-changing".
She added: "We are really pleased to be working in Scotland. It is one of the most beautiful places in the world to sail and the young people gain so much from the experience.
"The creation of the hub in Scotland is vital to allow the trust to be as accessible as possible.
"The young people who are undergoing treatment, or who are in remission, have already likely travelled some distances to and from hospitals, so to have a hub in Scotland where Scots can now get involved in the trust's work is simply fantastic.
"The sailing trips are about taking the young people away from an environment where cancer, recovery, remission are words being focused on day in, day out, and giving them the opportunity to learn a new skill and meet new people who, without speaking about it, understand exactly how they are feeling.
"The young people are given responsibilities on the sail, allowing them to build on their self-confidence."
Double-Olympic gold medallist Shirley Robertson, who grew up and learned to sail in Scotland, is an ambassador for the charity.
She said: "I have always been a strong advocate of the fact that the sailing trips put on by the trust benefits young people from all over the UK, including over 40 young Scottish people to date.
"A hub in Scotland will ensure that the trust will be increasingly accessible, further allowing even more Scottish young people in recovery from cancer to experience the benefits from the inspirational work that the charity undertakes."
Dame Ellen decided to launch the cancer trust after she spent some time with a similar organisation in France. It now works with every primary treatment centre in the UK. | Schools and community groups have been invited to come up with names for the new-build "super-prison" in Wrexham.

Write a summary of this document. | The German government has not confirmed the new estimate, which comes from an internal official report cited by popular daily Bild.
The report warns that services helping refugees will not be able to cope.
Separately, a centre-right regional minister put the expected total at 1.2-1.5 million for this year.
The German government previously estimated the number of asylum claims this year to reach 800,000 to one million in total.
Many are refugees fleeing the wars in Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan, but there are also many economic migrants from the Balkans, Asia and Africa.
UN High Commissioner for Refugees Antonio Guterres has warned that Europe, in dealing with the migration crisis, is engaged in a "battle of compassion versus fear, and of tolerance versus xenophobia".
Speaking in Geneva, he said the world was facing the highest levels of forced displacement in recorded history and the principle of asylum must remain sacrosanct.
He urged Europe to defend "its founding values of tolerance and openness by welcoming refugees of all religions".
The leaders of Hungary and Slovakia have said the influx of Muslims is a challenge to Europe's "Christian" identity.
The Turkish President, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, is to meet EU leaders in Brussels shortly to discuss the Syria crisis, which has fuelled an exodus of Syrians to the EU via Turkey.
Greek islands near the Turkish coast are overburdened with migrants, many of them Syrians determined to reach Germany. The crisis has strained EU relations with Turkey, a mainly Muslim country.
Can Turkey help solve EU migrant crisis?
On Sunday several thousand Germans opposed to mass immigration demonstrated in two eastern towns - Plauen and Sebnitz - after a call to action by the anti-Islamic Pegida movement.
Pegida (Patriotic Europeans Against Islamisation of the West) has staged regular anti-immigration marches across Germany.
The migrant influx is stretching resources in many German cities, including Hamburg, where empty commercial properties can now be seized in order to house migrants.
There is growing political pressure on German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who continues to defend her open-door refugee policy. Germany can manage, the chancellor insisted at the weekend.
But many politicians - including her conservative Bavarian CSU allies and various EU partners - have criticised the policy.
The Interior Minister of Mecklenburg-West Pomerania region, Lorenz Caffier, gave an estimate of 1.2-1.5 million asylum claims for this year.
But federal Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere said it was very hard to give accurate figures. Some refugees either avoided registration or moved elsewhere after being registered in one place, he said.
In 2014 the national total for asylum claims was 202,000.
A note on terminology: The BBC uses the term migrant to refer to all people on the move who have yet to complete the legal process of claiming asylum. This group includes people fleeing war-torn countries such as Syria, who are likely to be granted refugee status, as well as people who are seeking jobs and better lives, who governments are likely to rule are economic migrants. | The number of people seeking asylum in Germany this year will be as high as 1.5 million - almost double the previous estimate, German media report. |

Can you summarize the following paragraph? | After days of uncertainty following the inconclusive elections on 6 May, the country now faces weeks of instability as the different political parties campaign once again in what is likely to be a bitterly contested election.
The vitriolic atmosphere in which the final round of all-party talks for a technocrat government broke down on Tuesday does not bode well for the coming campaign.
Shortly after walking out of the talks, the main political leaders appeared on national television accusing each other of sabotaging the attempts to form a government.
The leader of New Democracy, Antonis Samaras, described the left-wing parties as "irresponsible and arrogant".
Then Alexis Tsipras, of the radical left-wing Syriza party, was on television accusing Mr Samaras and the leader of Pasok, Evangelos Venizelos, of trying to coerce his party into joining a coalition or holding an election "in a climate of blackmail and insecurity".
Opinion polls had suggested that a majority of the population wanted the politicians to compromise so a second election would be avoided.
Prolonged instability
And, on the streets of Athens on Tuesday, there was disappointment that the talks had collapsed.
Some believe the second election may also be inconclusive with no outright winner, leaving the country once again without a government.
Others fear the prolonged instability will further damage the markets.
But the attempt by Pasok and New Democracy to create a coalition government and so avoid another election was not motivated solely by a belief this would be better for the country and by a determination to ensure it remain in the eurozone.
Both parties have been on a downward slide and have little desire to face the electorate so soon after being humiliated in the 6 May vote.
In contrast, Syriza and other radical, anti-austerity parties have enjoyed a spectacular rise in popularity and could even take power after the second election.
Recent opinion polls have all shown Syriza ahead of both Pasok and New Democracy, but probably unable to form a government on its own.
There are, however, several anti-austerity parties it could approach to form a coalition.
So it is possible that next month Greece will have a government which is determined to completely rewrite the terms of the bailout agreement the country signed with the EU and IMF earlier this year.
And that, in turn, could lead to Greece leaving the eurozone.
But much could change between now and the next election.
The pressure on Greece from Brussels and eurozone countries is already intensifying with statements that the vote next month will, in effect, be a referendum on whether to remain part of the single currency.
The vast majority of Greeks do not want a return of the drachma.
And in the midst of this double crisis - both political and economic - Greece has to fulfil its commitments to implement further spending cuts as part of the bailout agreement.
This must be done next month, which is already set to be a key moment in the country's history. | Greece is now heading along a path which President Karolos Papoulias, the socialist Pasok party and the conservative New Democracy party - and a significant proportion of the population - had all hoped to avoid. |
Summarize the information in the following section. | New Forest District Council said the cost of rebuilding 119 new huts at Milford-on-Sea has now risen to £2.36m
It has put the increase down to rising construction costs and extra work on the promenade.
Lib Dem councillor David Harrison accused the Tory-led authority of showing the "strangest of priorities".
"I suspect that if residents in other areas of the New Forest were asked whether they thought this extra expense was worthwhile, they would say a firm 'no'.
"We've had cutbacks in every area of service the council delivers - surely some of that money would be better put aside to protect those services," he said.
Most of the old privately-owned concrete huts were destroyed by waves and high winds during the 2014 St Valentine's Day storm, with the rest requiring demolition later.
Conservative-run New Forest District Council (NFDC) said the initial plan to replace the huts had been expanded to improve public spaces around the huts and early tender prices had come in "significantly over budget".
Colin Read, executive director of operations, said: "Our decision to look at the wider benefits that could be gained from this project for residents and visitors to Milford has meant that costs have risen."
Cabinet members voted to approve the increase and the decision will now be sent to a full meeting of the council. If approved, the authority hopes to have the work completed by Easter 2017.
Colin Holdsworth, of the New Forest Beach Hut Owners Association, said: "I'm sad it's taking as long as it is to come to fruition. There are details over which the owners are not content, but only details." | The cost of replacing beach huts lost on a stretch of the Hampshire coast in the winter of 2014 has increased by more than £1m. |
Can you summarize this passage? | Mark Greenwood, 57, of Redbourn was cycling on the A5183 when he was knocked off his bike and killed.
John Michell, 26, of Whaddon Close, Northampton, admitted causing death by dangerous driving.
He was jailed for 21 months at St Albans Crown Court and disqualified from driving for three years.
The court heard Michell, an accountant, had sent at least two messages during a Whatsapp conversation with a woman at about 18:15 GMT on 9 January 2014.
Mr Greenwood had been wearing a high visibility jacket and helmet, although the court heard the last CCTV sighting of him showed he did not have his lights on as he cycled out of the city centre.
Other motorists reported he had been riding slowly along the A1538 in a straight line near the kerb.
He died from multiple traumatic injuries.
The woman who had received the messages told police Michell had later told her "It was my fault because I was looking at my phone."
By coincidence, the two men had been living in the same apartment block in Redbourn at the time, but they did not know each other.
Mr Greenwood's partner Susan Ullman told the court she did not want Michell to be jailed because it would be another "life lost".
John Dye, Michell's counsel, said his client was genuinely remorseful and had been diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder as a result.
However, Judge Andrew Bright said the use of mobile phones while driving was like an "epidemic" and he had to send out a "loud and clear" message that if a death was caused then drivers could expect prison sentences. | A car driver has been jailed for texting a woman on his mobile phone shortly before causing the death of a cyclist in St Albans. |
Summarize the provided section. | It is the organisation that has been chosen by the Electoral Commission to take the lead in making the case for Britain to leave the European Union. Although most of the big names at the head of the campaign are all Conservatives it has prominent Labour, Lib Dem and UKIP figures too, as well as business people.
Dozens of other organisations - including UKIP and leave.EU - have also been making their views known.
But only Vote Leave has been given £600,000 in public funds - to pay for a free mailshot to every household in the UK and to put on TV broadcasts - and only Vote Leave is allowed to spend up to £7m of money it has raised. Other anti-EU groups have been restricted to spending £700,000, and there are quite a lot of them (there are about 14 groups under the Grassroots Out banner alone).
Vote Leave has played a crucial role in shaping the referendum debate.
It has aimed to win over wavering voters in the centre ground by arguing that Britain can take back control of its own destiny and that leaving the EU will free up money to spend on the NHS and other public services.
Its opponents have accused it of failing to make a convincing economic case for Brexit and falling back on arguments over immigration. It has set out plans for a Australian-style migration points system to curb EU migration - an approach long endorsed by UKIP.
It is a Westminster-based group but it has a network of grassroots supporters and has a growing list of affiliated groups, including Veterans for Britain, Muslims for Britain, Aussies for Britain, Out and Proud (an LBGT group), and even Vapers for Britain, who are campaigning against EU regulation of e-cigarettes.
City millionaire and Conservative donor Peter Cruddas, Stuart Wheeler, a Conservative-turned-UKIP donor and businessman Patrick Barbour are among those to have put money into Vote Leave.
Other backers include former Conservative treasurer and Dixons boss Lord Kalms, Christopher Foyle, the chairman of Foyles bookshop, Joe Foster, the founder of Reebok, and John Caudwell, a philanthropist and co-founder of Phones4U, are among its other business backers.
The rival Leave.EU campaign has received a single £3.2m donation from stockbroker Peter Hargreaves while Grassroots Out, which is affiliated to Leave.EU, was given £1.95m by Better for the Country, a company with links to Leave.EU founder Arron Banks.
This is the group that has met every day during the campaign to plot strategy and decide on the messages to put out to the media.
Michael Gove - Conservative cabinet minister
As one of the cabinet's big hitters and a close friend of the prime minister, Gove was a crucial signing for Vote Leave. A longstanding opponent of Britain's membership of the EU, who kept his views to himself until the referendum date was announced, the justice secretary is the joint head of the Vote Leave campaign.
He has spoken of how his views on the EU were shaped by the collapse of his father's fishing business in the 1970s, for which his family blame the EU's Commons Fisheries Policy.
He represented Leave in the Sky EU referendum special and will appear on the BBC's Question Time special.
Gisela Stuart - Labour MP
One of a small group of Labour MPs opposed to Britain's membership of the EU, the German-born Stuart replaced former Conservative chancellor Lord Lawson as co-chair Vote Leave, as the group sought to prove it had cross-party support.
A widely-respected figure in the Commons, she has been MP for Birmingham Edgbaston since 1997 and was one of the British MPs delegated to help draw up an EU constitution, an experience that helped convince her Britain should leave.
She has spent much of the campaign touring the UK with Boris Johnson in Vote Leave's battle bus.
Boris Johnson - London mayor and Conservative MP
Johnson's decision to join the Vote Leave cause was seen as a potential game changer by the group's leaders. He has ruled out a head-to-head TV debate with David Cameron, the man he one day hopes to replace as Conservative leader, but he has spent much of the campaign on the road pressing the flesh and denouncing Remain arguments in his trademark "unpolished" style.
During an ITV debate, he was accused by ministerial colleague Amber Rudd of putting personal ambition ahead of principle - leading to speculation he was being targeted by the Remain camp.
Matthew Elliot - chief executive
The bespectacled 38-year-old is seen as one of the most effective lobbyists at Westminster. Best known as the founder of the pressure group The Taxpayers Alliance, he also ran the successful 'No2AV' campaign in the referendum on reform of the voting system in 2011. He is assisted by Stephen Parkinson who left his job as one of Theresa May's special advisors to join the campaign.
Dominic Cummings - campaign director
Cummings cut his campaigning teeth in his native North-East, as part of the successful campaign against a regional assembly, in a 2004 referendum. His blunt, uncompromising style has put noses out of joint in the past, particularly during his spell as a special adviser to Michael Gove when he was education secretary, but he is seen by supporters as a clever, original thinker.
John Longworth - businessman
Although a number of high-profile business figures - including James Dyson and Sir Anthony Bamford - have backed Brexit, they have been outnumbered by those seeking a Remain vote. Mr Longworth, who left his job as British Chambers of Commerce chief executive over his EU views, has been deployed to counter their arguments and make the case for why UK firms will thrive outside the single market.
Former Work and Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith, who resigned from the cabinet in March, has been the most vociferous Conservative grandee backing Brexit - accusing the government of abusing its position and scaremongering.
Cabinet Ministers John Whittingdale, Theresa Villiers and Chris Grayling - and Priti Patel who attends cabinet - have also been in the frontline while ministers Penny Mordaunt and Andrea Leadsom have made high-profile interventions.
Former Conservative Chancellor Lord Lawson is on the board of Vote Leave, along with home shopping magnate and Labour donor John Mills. Former Labour foreign secretary and SDP founder Lord Owen is also playing a high profile role.
UKIP spokeswoman Suzanne Evans - currently suspended from the party after a row - and former Lib Dem MP Paul Keetch have also figured, along with UKIP MP Douglas Carswell.
The UKIP leader is the face of Euroscepticism in the UK and did as much as anybody to secure a referendum in the first place.
He is a leading member of the Grassroots Out group, which lost out to Vote Leave in the battle to become the official Leave campaign - but that does not mean he has taken a back seat.
The UKIP leader has been ferried around the country in his own battle bus and has taken on David Cameron in an ITV debate - although the two men did not appear on stage at the same time.
Although he has shared a platform with some Conservative Brexiteers, relations with Vote Leave have remained frosty and he has accused them of trying to airbrush him out of the picture. He has welcomed what he claimed was Vote Leave's endorsement of UKIP's immigration policy. | Meet the men and women who have been given the job of persuading Britain to leave the European Union in 23 June's referendum. |
Summarize the information in the following document. | Scott Ellis, 42, of Tunstall, Suffolk, denies murdering Jane Bartholomew, 39, at her house in Martlesham Heath near Ipswich in June.
A defence psychiatrist told Ipswich Crown Court Mr Ellis's mental illness meant he had lost control.
Mr Ellis's defence claims it was manslaughter due to diminished responsibility.
Ms Bartholomew, who had had three daughters with the defendant, died as a result of receiving 20 blows from a hammer.
The couple had lived at separate addresses for about 10 years, but their relationship only ended recently, the court heard.
Peter Gair, prosecuting, argued Ellis had "brutally executed" her and his purchase of a "killing kit", featuring a hammer, spade, nylon ropes and plastic bags, showed it was planned.
The jury has heard he had put his hands around Ms Bartholomew's throat during a confrontation at her workplace car park in Rendlesham on 22 May, but it had not been reported to police.
Bob Peckitt, a professor of forensic psychiatry, gave evidence for the defence having examined Mr Ellis after the killing.
The court heard Mr Ellis, who was unemployed, had first complained he had depression in about 1999.
Prof Peckitt said: "The defendant had a personality disorder and the depression grew out of it.
"Mr Ellis is an inadequate individual ... and he has very little resilience."
Asked by Mr Gair if Mr Ellis was in control and acting rationally, Prof Peckitt said: "No, the depression was progressive and the violent thoughts and feelings were becoming more intrusive.
"There is no obstacle to a person with a serious mental disorder behaving in a rational way towards an irrational goal."
The trial continues. | A man accused of murdering his ex-partner had a personality disorder and depression, his defence has said. |
Summarize the content of the document below. | Labour's Adam Holden thought he had secured Blackburn with Darwen Council's Highercroft ward with a 277 majority.
But the returning officer declared the result null and void because Mr Holden works for a council-owned company - this is banned under Electoral Commission regulations.
The election will have to be re-run.
Returning officer Harry Catherall said: "Mr Holden gave me an explanation of his oversight and he advised me that that he had made a genuine mistake with regards to his eligibility to stand and that this had been brought to his attention earlier in the day.
"I will now make arrangements to re-run the election in due course."
Mr Holden got 466 votes, ahead of UKIP and the Conservatives on 169 and 133 votes respectively.
The by-election was called after the death of a long-standing councillor.

Northern Ireland economy minister Jonathan Bell has travelled to the French capital, along with representatives of local aerospace companies, aiming to land business at the trade show.
But what is the CSeries and what is at stake for Bombardier's Belfast operation?
Bombardier has long made business jets, but this is its first move into larger passenger planes and a market dominated by the big two: Boeing and Airbus. There are two versions. The CS100 and the CS300 with seat capacity of between 100-160. The smaller CS100 costs $63m (£40.4m) and the CS300 has a $72m (£46m) list price.
Is it made in Belfast?
Only the wings are - at a specially constructed factory at Queen's Island. Costing £520m, it represents the biggest inward investment project ever in Northern Ireland. Bombardier has said that when CSeries goes into full production, it will support 800 jobs in Belfast. Currently, the Canadian company employs 5,700 staff locally.
It is the world's largest trade show. It happens bi-annually, attracting buyers from the major airlines. Bombardier badly needs to generate interest. It currently has 243 firm orders, short of the 300 target it set for when the plane goes into service early next year. Only one buyer ranks among the world's top 20 airlines by passenger traffic. It has been nine months since the last order, causing concern among shareholders.
The big selling point of the CSeries is its fuel economy due to its innovative carbon-fibre wings which make it significantly lighter. But analysts say it is no coincidence that there have been no orders since the price of oil tumbled. But there are other issues.
The aircraft has been delayed by three years and is $2bn (£1.2bn) over budget. It is due to obtain certification later this year. Meanwhile, one of Bombardier's competitors, Airbus, has been discounting the price of a similar-sized aircraft, the A320.
CSeries has made it a very challenging year for Bombardier. There has been an overhaul in its top management team and even speculation that the commercial aircraft division may be put up for sale. CSeries is bleeding money with knock-on consequences.
Production of smaller Bombardier jets has been cut back or even suspended, causing jobs to be lost. Around 800 jobs in Belfast have gone within the past year, mostly among its contractor labour force.
Teodorin Obiang Nguema, the son of the country's president, is accused of money laundering. He has not commented.
Swiss authorities have seized 11 cars in total.
Among them was reportedly a Porsche valued at more than $830,000 (£667,000) and a Bugatti Veyron which sells for $2m (£1.7m).
The accused is due in court next year in France on similar charges, which he denies.
Prosecutors in Geneva say he has plundered his country's oil wealth to buy luxuries, including a private jet and Michael Jackson memorabilia.

The Armenian Church earlier canonised 1.5 million Armenians it says were killed in massacres and deportations by Ottoman Turks during World War One.
Turkey disputes the term "genocide", arguing that there were many deaths on both sides during the conflict.
On Friday commemorations will mark the 100th anniversary of the killings.
Speaking at a church service in Berlin, President Gauck said: "The fate of the Armenians stands as exemplary in the history of mass exterminations, ethnic cleansing, deportations and yes, genocide, which marked the 20th Century in such a terrible way."
Mr Gauck, who holds a largely ceremonial role, added that Germans also bore some responsibility "and in some cases complicity" concerning the "genocide of the Armenians". Germany was an ally of the Ottoman Empire during World War One.
His comments come as the German parliament, the Bundestag, prepares to debate a motion on the 1915 massacres.
But instead of a clear statement of condemnation, politicians will discuss an opaque, tortuously-worded sentence, which aims to be unclear enough to keep everyone happy - with the sort of convoluted phrasing that the German language is so good at, the BBC's Damien McGuinness in Berlin reports.
Germany joins Armenia genocide debate
Earlier on Thursday, the Armenian Church said the aim of the canonisation ceremony near the capital Yerevan was to proclaim the martyrdom of those killed for their faith and homeland.
After the ceremony, bells tolled in Armenian churches around the world.
The beatification at the Echmiadzin Cathedral did not give the specific number of victims or their names.
It is the first time in 400 years that the Armenian Church has used the rite of canonisation.
The use of the word "genocide" to describe the killings is controversial. Pope Francis was rebuked recently by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan for describing it as the "first genocide of the 20th Century".
On Friday, a memorial service will be held in Turkey and its prime minister, Ahmet Davutoglu, has said the country will "share the pain" of Armenians.
However, he reiterated Turkey's stance that the killings were not genocide.
"To reduce everything to a single word, to put responsibility through generalisations on the Turkish nation alone... is legally and morally problematic," he said.
Mr Davutoglu did acknowledge the deportations, saying: "We once again respectfully remember and share the pain of grandchildren and children of Ottoman Armenians who lost their lives during deportation in 1915."
Hundreds of thousands of Armenians died in 1915 at the hands of the Ottoman Turks, whose empire was disintegrating.
Many of the victims were civilians deported to barren desert regions where they died of starvation and thirst. Thousands also died in massacres.
Armenia says up to 1.5 million people were killed. Turkey says the number of deaths was much smaller.
Most non-Turkish scholars of the events regard them as genocide - as do more than 20 states, including France, Germany, Canada and Russia, and various international bodies including the European Parliament.
Turkey rejects the term genocide, maintaining that many of the dead were killed in clashes during World War One, and that many ethnic Turks also suffered in the conflict.

Write a brief summary of the document. | The Taliban said they were behind the blast, which also injured two US soldiers and a contractor.
US officials said the troops were meeting a local Afghan leader when they were targeted by a fighter riding a motorbike rigged with explosives.
Attacks on foreign troops have risen in recent months as forces have withdrawn.
Nato formally ended its combat operations last year, but 9,800 US troops remain in Afghanistan.
US Defence Secretary Ash Carter said the bombing was "a painful reminder of the dangers our troops face every day in Afghanistan".
The attack happened in a village close to Bagram airbase in Afghanistan.
To date, 16 US service members have been killed in combat this year, but most of those deaths were due to aircraft crashes, according to the Pentagon.
In October, a helicopter crash killed six US service members in Jalalabad.
"We're deeply saddened by this loss," Brig Gen Wilson Shoffner said in a news release. "Our heartfelt sympathies go out to the families and friends of those affected in this tragic incident, especially during this holiday season."
The incident is under investigation, according to the release.
In southern Afghanistan, reports suggest that Taliban militants are getting close to taking Sangin, a strategically important town.
The Taliban have said they controlled most of the town, with the main administrative building abandoned.
The attack comes after US President Barack Obama has reversed his policy in Afghanistan, announcing that up to 10,000 service members will remain in Afghanistan by the end of his presidency.
Three Afghan police were also wounded in the bombing.
A few days ago, there were suicide attacks on the Kandahar air base in southern Afghanistan, and on a Spanish embassy property in Kabul.

Guillermo del Toro's gothic horror romance Crimson Peak did not fare as well in the Halloween period, debuting at four with $12.8m (£8.3m).
However with an R-rating - where those under 17 need to be accompanied by a parent of guardian to see the film - it was expected to have a more limited audience than the PG-rated Goosebumps.
'Horrendous result'
This weekend also saw the release of Cary Fukunaga's drama Beasts of No Nation, about child soldiers in Africa.
After making headlines earlier this year when Netflix bought the distribution rights for $12m (£7.8m), the film was simultaneously released in cinemas and on the streaming platform.
But the film, starring Idris Elba, only made $50,699 (£32,800) across the 31 cinemas it was shown at, averaging $1,635 (£1,057) per theatre.
Although rival distributors called it "a horrendous result", Netflix told Deadline it would not release information about the film's streaming performance, but added it was "very happy".
It is understood the film was given a limited theatrical release to qualify it for the upcoming awards season.
In a limited release, abduction drama Room also earned a respectable $120,000 (£77,600) from four screens. | A suicide bombing in Afghanistan has killed six US service members in one of the deadliest attacks on American forces this year, US officials say.

Summarize the information in the following document. | Rebecca Louise Hellens, 22, from Chatteris, was fatally injured at South Lake Ski School near St Neots when the scooter she was on collided with another at about 11:45 BST on 26 July.
She died a short while later in hospital, Cambridgeshire Police said.
The district council is considering whether to investigate the incident.
The collision happened at the water sports centre which has three lakes.
One of these is an 8.5 acre lake solely for use by people with their own sea scooter machines, its website says.
Cambridgeshire Police were initially alerted to the incident by the ambulance service which had been called to a young woman reported to be in cardiac arrest after a collision.
Miss Hellens was taken to Bedford hospital where she died.
A spokesman for Huntingdonshire District Council said they were "liaising with the management of the club, Cambridgeshire Police and the Health and Safety Executive to determine the need for an investigation under the Health and Safety at Work Act".
An inquest into Miss Hellens' death was opened by the Cambridgeshire coroner and adjourned until 7 January. | A woman whose sea scooter collided with another on a Cambridgeshire lake died as a result of chest injuries, an inquest heard. |
Give a concise summary of the following information. | Arthur Cave, 15, was found injured on the underpass at Ovingdean Gap on 14 July and died later the same evening at the Royal Sussex County Hospital.
Opening the inquest, coroner's officer Thea Jones said his injuries were due to a fall from a height.
A full inquest will be held on 20 November at a venue to be confirmed.
Assistant deputy coroner Kate Palmer said statements would be read from people including the person who was with Arthur on the day he died.
The hearing was told emergency services were called at 17:55 BST to the underpass between Ovingdean and Rottingdean where Arthur was found by two passers-by.
He was pronounced dead at 18:56.
Investigations are continuing, but Sussex Police have said his death was not being treated as suspicious.
Lawyer Sean Horstead, who attended the hearing with Rachel Willis, Nick Cave's assistant, referred to reported difficulty emergency teams had in reaching Arthur.
He asked Ms Palmer whether a statement would be provided relating to that aspect of the case.
Neither Mr Cave, 57, nor his wife Susie attended the hearing.
The Australian musician and songwriter is best known as lead singer of the band Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, an alternative rock group formed in Melbourne in 1983.
Last year Cave and his wife appeared alongside Arthur and his twin brother Earl in 20,000 Days On Earth, a film documenting a fictitious 24 hours in the singer's life.
Following Arthur's death, his parents released a short statement saying: "he was our beautiful, happy, loving boy."

He declined to identify the drug, saying it had been "sent to a laboratory for an analysis".
No-one has been arrested.
Police acted after smelling marijuana coming from inside the bus when it was parked outside the hotel where the singer was staying.
The drug squad was alerted and searched the bus after it carried a group of people to the concert venue.
Police say there are no suspects and won't be taking the matter any further.

Summarize the information in the following section. | Laura Matthews-James, 25, was seven months pregnant when her Fiat 500 collided head on with Robert Hitchcock's car on 26 February 2016.
She denies causing death by driving without due care and attention after the crash on the B4300 near Carmarthen.
Swansea Crown Court heard she overtook two vehicles in one go before crashing.
Andrew Morgan, who was driving behind Ms Matthews-James, said: "The car did get back in, completed the manoeuvre.
"Quite instantaneously [it] shot some mud up from the verge like a plume and shot back across the road into the path of the oncoming car.
"As a result of the mud, it appeared to lose control and jettisoned across the road."
Ms Matthews-James was on her way to work at Glangwili Hospital in Carmarthen when the crash happened.
Prosecutor Jim Davies told the jury Mr Hitchcock was "probably instantaneously" killed by the impact.
The accused was also seriously injured and had to be airlifted to hospital.
Mr Morgan, who went to help after the crash said: "I am bitterly sorry I could not do more. I went to the second car, I tried everything I could, I am sorry."
Peter Jennings, a road traffic collision investigation expert, said the speedometer in the Fiat had been frozen at 56mph.
He told the court that would be a "fairly accurate" indication of the speed the car was doing at the time of impact and "certainly suggests the car was not exceeding the speed limit".
He said the speed of Mr Hitchcock's Citroen C3 would probably have been broadly similar and it was "certainly in its correct lane".

Summarize the content of the document below. | Mr Zuma, the chief mediator in Zimbabwe's 2008-9 political crisis, said only he was authorised to comment ahead of the 31 July elections.
His envoy, Lindiwe Zulu, said last week that electoral preparations were "not looking good".
Zimbabwe's president then asked Mr Zuma to stop "this woman" from commenting.
President Mugabe is seeking to extend his 33-year rule and will face Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai at the ballot box.
The two long-time rivals have been sharing power since 2009, under a deal brokered by Mr Zuma.
A statement from Mr Zuma's office said that some of the comments made about Zimbabwe had been unauthorised, unfortunate and inaccurate.
The statement did not refer to Ms Zulu by name.
She has previously said the elections should be postponed from 31 July, prompting Mr Mugabe to call her "stupid and idiotic".
Two days of early voting for members of Zimbabwe's security forces last week saw many logistical problems, such as a lack of ballot papers, raising fears that the election will not go smoothly.
After Ms Zulu's comments last week, Mr Mugabe said:
"That persistent negative voice from South Africa... could it please be stopped?" the state-owned Herald newspaper reports.
"I appeal to President Zuma to stop this woman of theirs from speaking on Zimbabwe. We were given one facilitator with one mouth and that is President Zuma himself; that's the voice, the only voice we want to hear."
The election is the first to be held since a new constitution was approved in a referendum in March.
However, some of Mr Tsvangirai's long-standing demands such as reform of the state media and security forces, seen as supporting Mr Mugabe, have not yet been implemented.
Last week, a South Africa-based satellite TV station aimed at Zimbabwe, 1st TV, was launched, prompting strong protests from Mr Mugabe's allies. | South African President Jacob Zuma has told his Zimbabwe envoy to stop making public comments, after she was criticised by Robert Mugabe. |
Summarize the information in the following section. | According to research from Queen's University, Belfast, the answer is yes, in the case of children at least.
A study has found regret plays a "crucial role in helping children to make better decisions".
The research involved 326 Northern Ireland schoolchildren.
This study is entitled: Do children who experience regret make better decisions? A developmental study of the behavioural consequences of regret.
It found that by the age of six, only some children are able to experience regret, but those who do learn to make better decisions.
The research was led by Dr Aidan Feeney, a senior lecturer at Queen's School of Psychology.
"It's a much-maligned emotion but our study suggests that developing the ability to experience regret may be important," he said.
"It could have significant value to children's development because of its role in decision-making.
"We're not saying teachers and parents should deliberately expose children to serious regret.
"But showing them how things would have turned out differently if they'd made an alternative choice could benefit them."
One of the experiments had some echoes of the Deal or No Deal game show, as each child was invited to open one of two closed boxes.
Both boxes contained stickers, but one had more than the other.
The children were asked to rate their feelings and those who felt worse about having picked the box with fewest stickers were said by the researchers to have experienced regret.
They were offered exactly the same choice the next day and the study found that the children who regretted their previous decision were more likely to remember the outcome and switch to the other box that had more stickers.
"Adults know to switch their behaviour the next time when a different decision would have led to a better outcome," said Dr Feeney.
"They learn not to press the snooze button on their alarm, for example, because this has made them late for work before.
"However, less is known about how and when children experience regret, and how they learn from this emotion."
Dr Feeney said more research was needed to understand how anticipating regret influences decision-making in older children and adolescents.
"There's much concern over the choices some teenagers make, for example around sexual behaviour and alcohol," he said.
"We don't want teenagers to experience regret by making decisions with very serious consequences.
"Instead, we need to understand how learning about other people's regrets might help them anticipate feeling the emotion themselves and therefore chose more wisely," he added.
There were four experiments involved in producing the research paper.
In the first study, 78 children aged between five and nine years old took part.
On the basis of the results of that study, the researchers focused on six and seven year olds for the remaining experiments.
The children who took part were said to be from "predominately from lower-to middle-class backgrounds and of Caucasian origin".
The research was funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), the UK's largest organisation for funding research on economic and social issues. | Frank Sinatra, Edith Piaf, and even Robbie Williams are amongst the singers who have exhorted us not to get bogged down in regret, but could this emotion actually be beneficial for us? |
Write a summary for this information. | Defending 149 on a slow surface, England took three wickets for no runs to reduce the hosts to 100-7.
Shemaine Campbelle (23 not out) edged West Indies close, but Katherine Brunt (3-24) took two wickets in two overs to bowl West Indies out for 144.
Danielle Wyatt earlier made 44 to drag England from 62-5 as the tourists were bowled out in the final over.
The second game in the five-match series takes place on Monday, again at the Trelawny Stadium.
For England, victory comes in Heather Knight's first overseas match since replacing Charlotte Edwards as captain.
In Knight's first series in charge, England whitewashed Pakistan 3-0 in both ODI and Twenty20 series, but World T20 champions West Indies represented a higher class of opposition.
That they claimed the win was down to the recovery work of Wyatt and Amy Jones (20), followed by an exceptional display with the ball.
England's total felt short of par, and looked increasingly so when West Indies openers Hayley Matthews and Shaquana Quintyne added 53, benefiting from pace on the ball.
But they were both removed by 17-year-old debutant left-arm spinner Sophie Ecclestone, either side of West Indies captain Stafanie Taylor retiring hurt.
England's quartet of spinners continued to make inroads while the big-hitting Deandra Dottin threatened at the other end, joined by Taylor who returned at the fall of the fourth wicket.
Dottin holed out off Brunt for 29 and when Alex Hartley removed both Taylor and Anisa Mohammed lbw with no further addition to the score, England were firmly in control.
Campbelle and Afy Fletcher, though, took up the fight with a stand of 23 before Fletcher was trapped in front by Laura Marsh.
With tension rising and home noise increasing, West Indies edged ever closer, only for Brunt to return to pin both Shamilia Connell and Erva Giddings lbw, sparking animated England celebrations.
England's decision to bat first on a surface seemingly set to deteriorate looked to be an advantage, but the touring top order initially struggled to adapt to the conditions on a stiflingly hot day.
Medium-pacer Dottin accounted for Tammy Beaumont, Georgia Elwiss and Knight for a golden duck, before Lauren Winfield and Nat Sciver fell to the spin of Fletcher and Mohammed respectively.
It was left to Wyatt, who made 90 in a practice match on Thursday, to rebuild, the right-hander sweeping and running well in a stand of 45 with Jones.
After Jones was caught behind off the off-spin of Taylor, it looked like Wyatt would accelerate in the final 10 overs, only to hole out to cover off Fletcher after making her highest ODI score.
It fell to Brunt to make 17 in the company of the tail and, when she became the last wicket to fall, England just about had enough.
England pace bowler Katherine Brunt: "I feel like it's one of my top two or three bowling performances ever.
"It was a tacky surface, quite slow, and people know I'm renowned for swinging the ball. In terms of being a seamer, everything was against you so you had to be clever.
"Before we came out to field, we said not to look lightly on the score. There's things to work on but, today that was the best we could manage. We put a score on the board, then rallied as a team. It was a brilliant team effort.
"We have a really supportive group of girls. The youngsters come in and feel welcome from the start, which is not always how it's been. Long may that continue."

Write a brief summary of the document. | David Gill was refused a licence to run South Lakes Safari Zoo in Dalton-in-Furness by Barrow Council earlier this month amid animal welfare concerns.
His decision means the zoo can remain open until a new company, formed by staff, can apply for its own licence.
Had Mr Gill not appealed, the zoo would have been forced to close next month.
Mr Gill has already handed management of the site over to the Cumbria Zoo Company Ltd, which is expected to have its own licence application heard in June.
In February, a report by Barrow Council found 486 animals had died at the zoo in four years, with the management style of Mr Gill coming in for criticism.
Mr Gill's solicitor Steve Walker said: "The zoo will stay open until the appeal is disposed of.
"The first hearing is likely to be in late April or early May, which will be a timetabling hearing.
"The substantive hearing will probably be in late May depending on court time and availability."
Mr Walker said his client no longer wanted to run the zoo, which houses 1,500 animals including tigers, giraffes and rare birds, but did not want to see it close before the new company had a licence approved.
In 2013, keeper Sarah McClay, from Glasgow, was mauled to death by a tiger and the zoo was later fined £297,500 for health and safety breaches.
Following a site visit in January, government-appointment inspectors said they were "dismayed by the obvious deficiencies in the accommodation, the overcrowding and the lack of proper welfare and husbandry".
Deaths included two rare snow leopards found partially eaten and seven "healthy lion cubs euthanised because the zoo did not have space to house them".
The inspectors also found cold animals in the unheated Africa House, which was so badly designed, its sloped yard was finished with smooth instead of rough concrete, causing a giraffe to slip to its death.
They raised concerns about animals fighting each other, uncontrolled breeding of lemurs and a heightened risk to public safety.
A spokeswoman for Cumbria Zoo Company Ltd said inspections carried out since it took control of the zoo had been positive, but it recognised more had to be done. | The owner of a Cumbrian zoo, where a keeper was mauled by a tiger and hundreds of animals have died, has appealed against its impending closure. |
Can you write a brief summary of this passage? | The first launch was considered to have failed, travelling about 150km (90 miles) before landing in the sea.
The second, launched hours later, flew about 400km. Military officials in the South said both were intermediate-range Musudan missiles.
A confirmed successful test would mark a step forward for North Korea after four failed launches in recent months.
South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff said Seoul and the US were "carrying out an in-depth analysis" of the second launch, and did not say whether it was considered a success.
North Korea, which is developing nuclear weapons, is banned by UN resolutions from any use of ballistic missile technology.
South Korea's presidential office announced that it would hold a national security meeting to discuss the launch.
The US State Department has strongly condemned the launches, with spokesman John Kirby saying the tests would only increase efforts to stop North Korea's weapons programme.
"We intend to raise our concerns at the UN to bolster international resolve in holding [North Korea] accountable for these provocative actions," said Mr Kirby in a statement.
North American Defense Command (Norad), which tracked the missiles, determined they did not pose a threat to North American territories.
Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has said such tests "clearly cannot be tolerated".
The Musudan is believed to have a range of about 3,000km (1,800 miles), enough for it to hit South Korea, Japan and the US territory of Guam in the Western Pacific.
North Korea is thought to have dozens of them but has never successfully tested one.
The four other missiles tested in the last two months either exploded mid-air or crashed.
The BBC's Steve Evans in Seoul says the repeated the failures illustrate both the technological difficulties North Korea faces as it develops deliverable nuclear weapons, and its determination to succeed.
Surrounding countries had detected preparations for a launch in the past few days and warned that it was about to happen. | North Korea has test-fired two mid-range ballistic missiles from its eastern coast, says South Korea. |
Write a concise summary for the following article. | The Seasiders were playing in the Premier League as recently as 2010-11.
Blackpool needed a win to have any chance of avoiding a second successive relegation and grabbed an early lead through striker Jacob Blyth's header.
But a Jon Taylor hat-trick, Marcus Maddison's penalty and Shaquile Coulthirst's finish for Posh dashed any hope that Blackpool had of survival.
Their relegation from the Football League's third tier was also confirmed by a win for Lancashire neighbours Fleetwood at already-relegated Crewe.

Write a short summary of the following excerpt. | The Welwalk WW-1000 system is designed for people with severe mobility loss in one leg, such as stroke patients.
The motorised brace fits around the knee and lower leg, helping the wearer to bend and straighten the joint.
Experts say that being able to rent the equipment should make it more affordable for medical facilities than buying it outright.
The system will cost one million yen ($9,130; £7,298) up front, with a monthly fee of 350,000 yen ($3,195; £2,554).
Toyota has not released details of how much it would cost if it were available to buy rather than rent.
It was developed in conjunction with Fujita Health University Hospital.
Patients first learn to use the device by walking on a special treadmill that monitors their gait, with their weight supported from above by a harness.
One of Toyota's chief research officers, Toshiyuki Isobe, said this approach helped "to reduce the burden on the patient and allows them to engage in training for longer."
As users continue their rehabilitation, sensors in the brace monitor how they are walking, adjusting the amount of support it provides.
Dr Eiichi Saito, executive vice president of Fujita Health University, said the aim was to provide "just enough assistance", gradually reducing it so that patients learned to walk better on their own.
But as Dr Farshid Amirabdollahian, an expert in rehabilitation robotics and assistive technology at the University of Hertfordshire, explained, such technology is not new.
"A system called Lokomat, which works on both legs, has been adopted by the NHS," he said.
"There are similar systems in use in the Netherlands and the United States."
These walking assist systems provide support for both legs, as this can help train the user to balance their weight and movement.
"What is interesting here is the service model," he continued.
"Previously users of this technology were limited by how much they could afford: rehabilitation technology is quite expensive and many [hospitals] cannot afford it."
He said that Toyota's decision to allow facilities to rent the equipment meant more should be able to meet the initial costs and the monthly premiums.
Japan is the fastest-aging nation in the world.
In 2015 more than a quarter of the population was aged 65 or older, compared to the global average of 8.5%.
As the number of elderly people requiring care and assistance increases, the number of working-age people able to provide those services is decreasing.
That has prompted Japanese companies to develop mobility assistance devices aimed at improving the wellbeing and independence of the elderly and reducing the burden on their caregivers.
In 2015, Honda launched a rental service for its own walking assistance system.
Unlike Toyota's mobility aid, it fits around the wearer's waist and thighs and works to improve their stride.
Eight teak carriages on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway in Pickering had windows smashed overnight, with furniture and fixings also ruined.
The carriages, dating from 1930 to 1950, have regularly been featured in films and television, the railway said.
North Yorkshire Police is investigating the attack.
Fire extinguishers were also set off throughout the carriages, soaking the furniture and wall fittings.
The railway said the full extent of the damage was not yet known, but repair costs would run "into the thousands if not more".
Chris Price, general manager at the railway, said: "We were absolutely devastated to discover that the carriages had been damaged overnight, obviously all the staff and volunteers are extremely upset.
"I doubt very much that the set will run again in the 2017 season."
On Saturday, thousands of people attended a live music event at the railway called '60s Fest' - held metres away from where the carriages were vandalised.
The railway warned there would be service disruptions on the line due to the damage caused.

Summarize the content of the document below. | Moneysupermarket's dancing bodyguard Gary, twerking businessman Dave and dancing builder Colin were all in the top 10, the advertising watchdog said.
The Paddy Power advert was first shown in 2010 but still drew 450 complaints.
The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) said none on the list "crossed the line" from bad taste to offence.
Three Moneysupermarket price comparison website adverts attracted 2,491 complaints between them.
Some viewers found the bodyguard's dance moves "distasteful", and the ads with the businessman and the builder as homophobic.
Source: Advertising Standards Authority
An advert for dating website Match.com showing a woman removing her female partner's top and kissing her received 896 complaints.
It was seen as sexually explicit and inappropriately scheduled.
The Paddy Power advert featured men playing blind football and inadvertently kicking a cat due to the sound of a bell round its neck.
The ASA had already ruled the majority of viewers would see the advert as humorous and not humiliating or undermining to blind people, and so did not investigate it again.
The bookmaker's advert about Scottish football fans not minding not qualifying for Euro 2016 - because they could bet on England to lose - was complained about for being racist and anti-English.
Also in the top 10 were Smart Energy's Gaz and Leccy cartoon characters, the Home Office's Disrespect Nobody domestic violence campaign, Maltesers featuring a woman in a wheelchair and Gourmet Burger Kitchen's references to giving up vegetarianism.
The complaint about the Home Office's ad was that it implied only men were responsible for domestic abuse and it could discourage male victims from coming forward.
ASA chief executive Guy Parker said: "The ads that attract the highest number of complaints are often not the ones that need banning.
"Our action leads to thousands of ads being amended or withdrawn each year, mostly for being misleading, but there wasn't one misleading ad in the top 10.
"In the list there are a number of ads, which while advertising their product or service, have also sought to present a positive statement about diversity but were in fact seen by some as doing the opposite.
"In all those cases, we thought people generally would see the ads in a positive light and that the boundary between bad taste and serious or widespread offence had been navigated well enough, often through using sensible scheduling restrictions."
A Moneysupermarket campaign also topped the most-complained-about list in 2015.
Murphy, 24, has scored one goal in three appearances for the Latics this season and has joined the Reds on a 93-day loan deal.

He left the Hornets last summer after scoring two goals in 95 appearances during his spell at Vicarage Road.
Since then, Jenkins has spent time in the USA where he had a trial with Major League Soccer side Chicago Fire.
"I know all about Rhys, he can definitely score goals at this level," Reds boss Mark Yates told the club website.
"I'm confident he will make a good impression here if we can get good service into him."

Write a summary of this document. | Varndell equalled Mark Cueto's record of 90 tries to edge Bristol back into the contest at half-time, after a penalty try and a Denny Solomona score helped put Sale 15-10 up at the break.
A James Mitchell penalty and Johnny Leota's try extended Sale's lead.
However, tries from Rhodri Williams and Max Crumpton won it for Bristol.
Crumpton's effort to seal Bristol's first away win since earning promotion back to the Premiership in May came moments after Rob Webber's sin-binning as Sale finished the match with 14 men.
A penalty-riddled start from Bristol allowed Sale to take early control with a penalty try quickly following Ryan Bevington's sin-binning.
Solomona, a try-scoring record breaker in Super League before controversially switching rugby codes last month, grabbed his second try in as many Premiership matches to compound Bristol's woes while down a man, getting on the end of a neat chip kick from Mike Haley.
James Woodward converted Varndell's milestone try after kicking a penalty to boost Bristol's hopes after being 15-0 down.
Leota's score again saw Sale go 13 points up after 55 minutes, but Mitchell's missed conversion proved costly as Varndell set Williams up before Crumpton went over.
Woodward converted both scores to ensure back-to-back Premiership wins for Bristol for the first time since March 2008, while Sale lost for the eighth time in succession in all competitions.
Sale director of rugby Steve Diamond told BBC Radio Manchester: "I think we have to give credit to Bristol for responding every time we got in front of the game with their never-say-die attitude.
"We didn't control the game well at all, we managed to score and play some good rugby but we didn't have the confidence to back it up.
"There are a lot of good sides in the competition and anyone can beat anyone on the day, as was shown today.
"We should have controlled the game better in the second half and we didn't, and Bristol took their opportunities."
Bristol wing Tom Varndell told BBC Radio Bristol: "It's great to get the win and keep the winning mentality up, that changing room is buzzing.
"I'm definitely confident and enjoying my rugby again, the last six to eight weeks have been good for me.
"Obviously I love scoring tries and it is what I'm in the team to do. To do it at Cueto's home is a bit bad, but oh well."

Summarize the content given in the passage. | Figures obtained by children's charity the NSPCC showed 1,321 complaints recorded since 2013.
The total annual figure rose from 201 in 2013 to 629 in 2015.
Des Mannion, of NSPCC Cymru, said social media sites should make a "serious commitment" to tackling the issue.
The 629 recorded crimes - which included complaints for the three forces that provided comparable figures - were released after the charity submitted a Freedom of Information request to Wales' four forces.
This asked for the number of recorded complaints for the possession, distribution and production of indecent images of children for 2013, 2014 and 2015.
South Wales Police saw the highest number of recorded crimes with 480, followed by Dyfed-Powys Police with 412 and North Wales Police with 320.
Gwent Police only provided figures for 2015 - 109.
Across the UK, the total number of recorded crimes for the possession, distribution and production of indecent images of children rose from 4,530 in 2013 to 10,818 in 2015.
After news that a Scots nurse was being treated for Ebola, Hopkins wrote: "Sending us Ebola bombs in the form of sweaty Glaswegians just isn't cricket."
Another tweet said: "Glaswegian ebola patient moved to London's Royal Free Hospital. Not so independent when it matters most are we jocksville?"
Police Scotland said an investigation had found no criminality.
The force had received a series of complaints about the Twitter outburst.
Thousands of people also signed an online petition calling for action to be taken over the "racist tweets".
A Police Scotland spokesman said: "An investigation has been carried out and on this occasion no criminality has been established."
Hopkins' comments came after it emerged that nurse Pauline Cafferkey, who volunteered to help in the fight against Ebola, was diagnosed with the deadly virus on her return to Glasgow from Sierra Leone at the end of last year.
She received specialist treatment at the Royal Free Hospital in north London and has since made a full recovery.

Summarize this article briefly. | The musician was best known for his association with Paganini and was sometimes referred to as the Paganini of the 20th Century.
Born in San Francisco in 1918, he began learning the violin when he was six and was taught by Yehudi Menuhin's teacher, Louis Persinger.
His talent was soon recognised when he won a local violin competition.
In a newspaper report on the contest, Ricci was described as "a youthful genius".
He made his full recital debut in his home city in 1928 and went to study in Berlin before returning home to work with Persinger again.
He embarked upon his first European tour in 1932, making his debut in London with Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto.
In the same year he played for the scientist Albert Einstein at the California Institute of Technology.
During World War II he joined the Army Air Force, becoming an "entertainment specialist" who played for the troops.
He went on to perform more than 5,000 concerts in 65 countries.
Ricci taught at Indiana University, the Juilliard School, the University of Michigan and the Mozarteum in Salzburg, Austria.
His many recordings include works by Paganini, Bach, Beethoven and Mozart.
On hearing of his death, author Norman Lebrecht described Ricci as "a man of immense natural warmth".
"He carried on playing and teaching until he could barely hold a bow," he continued on his blog.

Christy Pym has taken over as first-choice keeper - playing nine of the last 12 games - while James Hamon has also made two starts.
"The fact of the matter is we have three very good goalkeepers, that's how it should be," Tisdale told BBC Sport.
"All players have light at the end of the tunnel in terms of good performances and I'm comfortable in selecting all three."
In 21-year-old Pym's last five games for his hometown club, City have lost just once - away at high-flying Carlisle in a game they should have won - and moved up to 17th in League Two.
"I will make a selection based on a whole number of topics and analysis and at the moment my choice is Christy," added Tisdale.
"He's played really well over the last three or four games and I don't think anyone would criticise his performances.
"We need competition for places and I've got three very able, selectable goalkeepers all trying very hard.
"There's no poor relationship between them on the training ground, which you often get in these situations, so I'm delighted for all of them.

Then-Rwandan president Juvenal Habyarimana was killed when his plane was shot down in 1994.
His assassination triggered nationwide violence, leading to 800,000 deaths.
Investigators want to hear evidence from a former general who claims Mr Kagame was involved.
President Kagame rejected the allegations, and criticised French authorities for re-opening the investigation last week.
"The judicial system of Rwanda is not subordinate to France or France's interests," he said.
France, in turn, is accused by Mr Kagame of taking part in the massacres - a charge denied by Paris.
"If starting all over again is a showdown we will have a showdown, there is no problem about that," Mr Kagame said.
Former Rwandan army chief Faustin Kayumba Nyamwasa, who lives in exile in South Africa, says that Mr Kagame was responsible for the attack on the aircraft.
French authorities have now asked for South Africa's cooperation in formally questioning Mr Nyamwasa.
Rwanda and France have an ongoing dispute about the circumstances surrounding the 1994 plane crash, in which French crew members also died.
Rwanda's genocide, the victims of which largely came from the minority Tutsi ethnic group, took place between April and June 1994, leaving 800,000 dead within 100 days.
On 6 Apri, 1994, President Juvenal Habyarimana's plane - which was also carrying the President of Burundi - was shot down by an unknown assailant. Mr Kagame maintains it was the work of Hutu extremists, who wanted to provide a pretext for violence against the Tutsi community.
A Rwandan inquiry backed up the president's assertions, but subsequent French investigations have failed to reach any conclusions.
In 2006, Rwanda cut ties with France for three years after a judge called for Mr Kagame to stand trial.
Relations between the two nations have remained tense since then.
The 20-year old was a key component of the side that secured survival in League Two despite being 11 points adrift with 12 games remaining.

Can you provide an overview of this section? | The report, written by Sir Stephen Bubb, recommends introducing a charter of rights and more community facilities for people with learning disabilities.
It also says some "inappropriate" in-patient facilities should be closed.
The report comes after abuse was exposed at Winterbourne View care home in Bristol in 2011.
Sir Stephen, chief executive of the Association of Chief Executives of Voluntary Organisations (ACEVO), was asked by NHS England how to address "serious shortcomings" in support for those with learning disabilities.
The report - Winterbourne View - Time for Change - offers 10 recommendations for the NHS, local government, regulators and the government.
Phill Wills, whose son Josh has a learning disability and severe autism, has to travel 300 miles from Cornwall to see him at a treatment hospital in Birmingham.
He told BBC News he has "fought tooth and nail" to have Josh's care provided nearer to his home.
"When we felt that we weren't being listened to, it felt like Josh wasn't being listened to," he said.
Leo Andrade, whose 19-year-old-son Steven also has severe autism and lives in a hospital in Northampton, welcomed the report.
Mrs Andrade lives in London and spends up to four hours travelling to see her son. She said she has "no trust whatsoever in the system".
"I do not want my son again in any other institution," she said. "I also find the idea that having my son away from us is robbing us of having a family."
Other recommendations include a framework to support people with learning disabilities and autism move out of hospitals and into the community.
Its other recommendations include:
Sir Stephen said the Winterbourne View "scandal" had "shocked the nation" and that had led to pressure to prevent such a case from happening again.
Neglect and abuse of patients by staff at the Winterbourne View private hospital, near Bristol, was uncovered by BBC Panorama. Six people were jailed in 2012 and five given suspended sentences.
Sir Stephen said: "We urge immediate action, to close all Winterbourne-style institutions and ramp up community provision.
"We need a new charter of rights to empower people with learning disabilities and their families, and give them the right to challenge the system. We need that system to have the courage to act on these recommendations, and not to promise another false dawn.
"The time for talk is over. It's time for people with learning disabilities or autism and their families to be put first."
Prime Minister David Cameron said: "We have got to do more to get people out of hospitals and into loving and caring homes in the community."
Labour leader Ed Miliband said there were still more people with learning disabilities moving into care than leaving.
Gary Bourlet from advocacy group People First England, who has a learning disability, said: "The report is full of good words. But there's not much here that hasn't been said before.
"We need someone to take charge of making change happen. And that person should be working alongside someone with a learning disability. We call that co-working. And we need a timetable as well."
NHS England chief executive Simon Stevens has called for "radical changes" in care for those with learning disabilities, saying it would mean "challenging legacy models of institutional care".
"NHS England's recent work with people with learning disabilities, and this new report, all now prove that radical changes are needed in NHS and social care," he said.
Jane Cummings, chief nursing officer for England, said: "This report asks every part of the system to respond. We are committed to playing a full and active role in the implementation of the recommendations and call on others to do the same."
She said work was already being done to introduce the recommendations and that the number of people being discharged from hospital was increasing. But she admitted more needed to be done to stop people being admitted.
NHS England said all local NHS leaders must now have a register of inpatients with learning disabilities and autism to create informed local care plans.
It is also carrying out care and treatment reviews, which looks at whether a patient is receiving the right care in the right place and takes into account the patient's requests.
NHS England expects about 1,000 reviews, which are supported by clinicians as well as NHS and local authority commissioners, to have taken place by the end of the year. | People with learning disabilities in England are being kept in hospitals far from home for too long, a review says. |
Write a brief summary of the document. | Ruddington Parish Council faced some opposition when it decided to install dog poo bag dispensers around the Nottinghamshire village.
Now, some of the bags disappear almost as soon as they are restocked.
It is costing the council hundreds of pounds a year, so it has decided to remove some of the dispensers.
Nick Tegerdine, chairman of the council's environment and policy committee, said: "I really do worry what it is all about.
"There's a militant fringe of dog walkers in Ruddington who take the view that their dog can go wherever it likes and do whatever it likes, and I did get some opposition when we first proposed putting these dispensers in."
Other theories are that people are stealing them to use as nappy sacks, or taking dozens at a time and stockpiling them.
"What's happened is that certain dispensers are emptied systematically almost as soon as they are full," said the councillor.
"You're certainly barking if that's the attitude you take."
Like many areas, Ruddington has had an ongoing problem with dog poo not being cleaned up.

It was "feasible" some of the bruising was caused on the potty "if she'd fallen back with enough force", a forensic scientist told a jury at Birmingham Crown Court.
Kathryn Smith, 23, and her partner Matthew Rigby, 22, deny murder.
They have also pleaded not guilty to allowing or causing a child's death and child cruelty.
Smith, of Sandfield Road, Nottingham and Rigby, of Sloan Drive, Nottingham, are accused of murdering Ayeeshia at the flat they shared in Burton-upon-Trent, on 1 May, 2014.
In all, 16 injuries were found on the toddler's body including a historic bleed on the brain, the court heard.
Jurors have already been told the child was known to social services.
Ms Smith and Mr Rigby were "uncooperative" and "hostile" to police at Queen's Hospital in Burton-on-Trent, officers told the court.
The child's mother balled her fists at one officer, while her partner allegedly shouted the police just "wanted an excuse to arrest" her, the court heard.
Det Con Sonia Milligan said: "Parents present all sorts of different emotions, but I have never experienced such hostility as was presented that evening at hospital."
She added: "[Ms Smith's] initial account of how the injuries were sustained was to do with (falling off) the potty."
The couple were also upset at being told they would not be allowed to go home, as the home in Britannia Drive would need to be searched.
Smith's own mother had earlier told officers her daughter was "concerned" because there was cannabis at the home.
A quantity of the drug was later found inside a Tommee Tippee baby mug in a bedroom.

Give a brief summary of the provided passage. | Previously it has not been possible to drop down from the WSL into the third tier, the Women's Premier League (WPL).
The league have also revealed that applications for WSL licences from 2018-19 will initially only be open to the existing WSL clubs, not new teams.
But should any club fail to meet the criteria, then other clubs may apply.
Meanwhile, WSL clubs are to receive an increase in funding from the Football Association, up by as much as 79% for second-tier sides, as follows:
There will be one relegation spot in WSL 2 from the end of the first winter season to drop out of the WSL.
One club will continue to be promoted from the WPL up to the second tier, via a play-off, each season, with the winners of the WPL Northern Division facing the Southern champions.
In between WSL 1 and WSL 2, one team will continue to be relegated each season, while one team will be promoted.
This one-up, one-down system throughout the top three tiers means there will a total of 20 teams in the WSL, with 10 teams in each division, bringing a halt to the WSL's expansion, which started in 2014.
These changes do not apply to the 2017 Spring Series - a one-off, transitional competition where there will be no promotion or relegation, while the WSL switches to the winter calendar.
With an initially closed process for licence applications, the existing WSL clubs - plus those promoted to WSL 2 by right - will have priority over any new teams wishing to join the league.
This reduces the likelihood of new women's clubs joining the WSL without working their way through the lower divisions of the women's football pyramid.
But should any WSL club fail to meet the criteria for renewal, in any future season, then the door could be open for a club that does not currently have a top-level women's side to enter. | Relegation from Women's Super League Two will be introduced for the first time in the 2017-18 season when the WSL adopts a winter calendar. |

Ecclestone, the sport's 85-year-old billionaire chief executive, is to stay in his role for three more years after US firm Liberty Media agreed to buy a 35.3% stake from CVC Capital.
And Briton Moss, 86, believes that can only be good for F1.
"He is exceptionally important - thank goodness we've got him for three years," said Moss.
Ecclestone will be joined at the helm of the sport by new chairman Chase Carey, vice-chairman of 21st Century Fox.
Speaking to BBC Sport on Thursday, Ecclestone joked the pair were "dictators".
Carey added: "This is a great global sport and one where we're just going to keep trying to build on what Bernie's built over the last four decades.
"This is an evolution. We're going to work together. The best businesses are partnerships where people work together as a team."
Moss, who raced between 1951 and 1961 and has retained a keen involvement, says the development under Ecclestone has been exceptional.
"Motor racing now is really good, you look at the pits and they are all nicely organised, and everything works well," he added.
"He's done so much for the sport and brought it forward enormously. Look where we are now."
Ecclestone has had a strong grip on Formula 1 since becoming chief executive of the Formula One Constructors' Association (FOCA) in 1978.
His controlling nature has been advantage to the sport, according to Moss.
"As long as he controls it properly what does it matter? It's what you need. He's a dictator but he can get it done.
"It's an amazing thing to see a man like that. He can call anyone up in the world and they will stop what they are doing and speak to him. He's a very big man."

Please summarize the following text. | Director General Lord Hall was among senior managers giving evidence to the assembly's culture committee.
The BBC's new charter includes an extra £8.5m for BBC Wales programming, while BBC Scotland will get a new TV channel with £19m new investment and a £30m total annual budget.
Lord Hall said the BBC had considered the "very different needs of Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland."
He added that BBC Wales director Rhodri Talfan Davies had conducted "extensive research" and had found a lack of appetite for a so-called Welsh Six news programme that would encompass world, UK and Welsh news.
Lord Hall said: "We did see issues around the reach of our services, particularly the changes we have made to the availability of Radio Wales fits into that.
"We also wanted to ensure that we were building up the English language programming on BBC One Wales.
"That seemed to me, and to Rhodri, the right answer to the Welsh issue which is: how we can do more in the English language to the whole of Wales? And BBC One Wales, because it is doing so well, seems the best route to that, rather than going down the route of a new channel as we have done in Scotland."
Labour AM Lee Waters said the BBC had created "a beast you are going to have to feed" by introducing a new channel in Scotland, which "will forever put us at a disadvantage in terms of investment."
Lord Hall rejected the claim, and added later that extra funding for the BBC's national services came at a time of cuts in other areas of the broadcaster's operations.
"The additional investment we have made in Wales, and in Scotland and Northern Ireland, are the only additional commitments we have made through our savings programme to more funding.
"As you know, the BBC overall has a flat funding settlement for the next five years. These are, so far, the only commitments we have made and that's because I believe very strongly in what we are trying to do in the nations and regions."
Asked about a previous commitment to consider introducing opt-out news bulletins for Wales on Radio 1 and Radio 2, Lord Hall said technology was proving a "block" to the plans as FM transmitters overlapped national borders.
"We have got an issue here - it's really difficult, if we could achieve it I would like to achieve it. We have run up against technical issues.
"There's no way of breaking the FM transmission so that you give Bristol and the Somerset zone what they want, and what we would like to deliver to Cardiff and the zone around Cardiff. We can't find a way around it. We want to find a way around it - this is not about money or policy, we are trying to find a way around it."
BBC Cymru Wales director Rhodri Talfan Davies said changing FM transmitters in Wales could impact the radio services of around a million listeners in England.
He said: "It's a huge problem, and it's a problem of geography. We know that around 60% of the population of Wales lives within around 40 miles of Cardiff. And if the frequencies (from transmitters in Wales) cannot be prevented from reaching south west England, there are around a million listeners in the Bristol area who are dependent on the frequencies that come from Wales."
"That's not a matter of building new transmitters. The problem is that additional FM spectrum is not available."
Transport minister Keith Brown said Abellio, Arriva, FirstGroup, MTR and National Express had passed the pre-qualification stage of the process.
ScotRail provides passenger train services throughout Scotland.
FirstGroup currently holds the franchise, which is due to expire on 31 March 2015.
ScotRail operates more than 2,000 train services a day, delivering more than 76 million passenger journeys and 1.6 billion passenger miles a year.
The franchise employs a total of 4,300 staff.
Mr Brown said the five shortlisted companies had demonstrated, in their responses to the pre-qualification questionnaire, "an understanding of, and a commitment to realise, our ambitions for a transformed rail service".
He added: "I am convinced that this strong competition will deliver a great public rail service for the people of Scotland."

The Gloucestershire club are currently building an 'Eco Park', consisting of an all-seater stadium and a 100-acre sports and green technology centre.
"I think every agent thinks at Forest Green there's a gravy train there and loads of money," Cooper said.
"From the outside everybody thinks that, but that's not the case.
"I want to bring in some real good characters, not just people that are coming for a payday or an easy life."
Vince has recently said the club's long-term goal is to reach the Championship, and wants to be in the Football League by the time they move into their new ground.

Provide a concise overview of the following information. | But 18 years after the signing of the Good Friday Agreement, politics in Northern Ireland still shows signs of growing pains.
Yet amid the many crises at Stormont, it is easy to forget the progress that has been made since the peace deal was first published in April 1998.
To the current generation of school-leavers and job-starters, the widespread violence that scarred towns and cities for decades is history they have learned at school - not experiences they lived through like their parents and grandparents.
Rowan Armstrong, a first year engineering student at Edinburgh University, says that when he tells young people from Scotland and England he is from Northern Ireland, "they ask is everything okay".
"They seem to think the Troubles are still ongoing and they don't realise how far we have come," said the 19-year-old.
"You just want to take them somewhere like the north coast and they would just fall in love with it."
The stretch of coastline near Portrush and Portstewart offers spectacular scenery and big waves.
Rowan and his friend Ross Hayburn regularly surf in the sea there, but they are doubtful if there will be enough job opportunities to keep them in Northern Ireland in the long-term.
The new troubles are linked to the economy, rather than paramilitaries.
"From speaking to people who have been to university, they say all the jobs are in England, Scotland and further abroad," says Ross, who is on a gap year.
"In terms of staying here for job prospects, I would say it's easier to find [work] in other countries."
Keeping the brightest and best graduates is a real challenge for the power-sharing government at Stormont.
On Wednesday evening, politicians from the Northern Ireland Assembly's main parties will face first-time voters in a televised BBC debate in Belfast.
They are being called the 'Good Friday Generation', because this will be the first election in which anyone born after the signing of the agreement will be able to vote.
Despite the progress of the years since that deal, politics remains a divided and at times divisive business.
Unionists and nationalists may share power, but it is in an enforced coalition and disagreements have, on several occasions, threatened the future of the ruling executive.
"It is a bit of a mess," said Callum McKinney of Loreto College in Coleraine.
"They always seem to be arguing and never seem to get along.
"I think they are holding us back."
Callum was part of a group of sixth-form students and first-time voters we spoke to from both Loreto and Coleraine Grammar School.
One of the major sources of problems at Stormont in recent months has been the failure to agree a process to deal with the legacy of the Troubles.
But many of the 18-year-olds - who grew up in a time of relative peace - were frustrated by that continued focus on the past.
"Maybe it's because the older generation did have to grow up in a time when there was a lot more segregation and violence between the communities," reasoned Hannah Anderson of Coleraine Grammar.
"But I do believe the younger generation are a bit more open-minded."
"If they want more young people to vote for them, they need to focus on things that really concern them, such as university fees."
The other big issues they singled out were related to the economy, abortion reform and the failure to introduce same-sex marriage in Northern Ireland - all subjects that have been the source of dispute at Stormont.
However, there was also a recognition of the difference power-sharing has made, even if it is imperfect.
"If you look at Northern Ireland maybe 30 or 40 years ago, you can see it was in chaos," noted Gareth Doherty, one of the sixth-formers.
"There was really no form of progressive government then but if you look at it now it really has come a long way.
"It is a lot better than it used to be."
Change does not happen overnight and politically the assembly is still evolving.
But perhaps 18 years after the agreement, politics in Northern Ireland is beginning to come of age.

Please give a summary of the document below. | He was one of the pioneers of in vitro fertilisation, known as IVF, alongside his colleague Dr Patrick Steptoe.
Sir Robert, who has died aged 87, was born in Batley outside Leeds in September 1925.
World War II and service in the British Army delayed his eventual emergence in the scientific world.
In 1951 he graduated from the University of Bangor in Wales and then completed his doctorate at the University of Edinburgh in 1955. It was at Edinburgh that he met his wife Ruth.
Around this time he began to work on the processes of fertilisation - that critical moment when a man's sperm and a woman's egg join to create new life.
Animal studies had shown that it was possible to fertilise an egg in a laboratory instead of inside the body.
The team of Dr Steptoe and Prof Edwards were trying to achieve the same results in people.
It took until 1968 for the first glimmers of success.
They fertilised an egg, which then began to develop and reached the blastocyst stage after five to six days.
Prof Edwards said: "I'll never forget the day I looked down the microscope and saw something funny in the cultures.
"I looked down the microscope and what I saw was a human blastocyst gazing up at me. I thought, 'We've done it'".
However, there would be another decade of trials and tribulations before the first test-tube baby.
Their work was refused funding by the UK's Medical Research Council in 1971 and they had to rely largely on private donations to continue their work.
It was also vigorously opposed by groups including the Catholic Church and scientists were concerned about abnormalities in any babies born through these procedures.
There were many failed attempts, the first pregnancy was ectopic, but one of the childless couples treated were Lesley Brown and her husband John.
They had been trying to conceive for nine years, but now she was pregnant.
The media storm was intense.
"We were concerned that she would lose the baby, the foetus, because the press were chasing Mrs Brown all over Bristol where she lived," said Prof Edwards in 2008.
"So, secretly Patrick Steptoe hid the mother in his car and drove her to his mother's house in Lincoln - the press didn't know where she was."
In 1978, at Oldham and District General Hospital, a tiny baby was introduced to the world.
The birth of Louise Brown, the first test tube baby, changed the world forever.
Being infertile was no longer a guaranteed barrier to having a child.
Robert Edwards and Patrick Steptoe would then set up the first IVF clinic - Bourn Hall in Cambridgeshire - in 1980.
The opposition to IVF lessened with time and the procedure is now commonplace.
By 2012, more than five million children had been born through assisted reproductive techniques around the world.
Dr Patrick Steptoe died in 1988.
It was a long wait for a Nobel Prize, which was awarded to Prof Edwards for medicine in 2010. A knighthood followed the year later.
He was one of the giants of science in the 20th Century and pioneered the techniques which have given children to millions of couples.
The 20-year-old, who primarily plays as a left-back, has agreed a two-year contract with the National League side.
Scales, who has previously spent time on loan at Crawley Town, graduated through Norwich City's academy before joining Crystal Palace in 2014.

Summarize the following piece. | The military said officers tracked down Sombat Boonngamanong through the internet. He is wanted for violating an order to report to the ruling junta.
Mr Sombat led an online campaign organising rallies against the army's coup, which took place in May.
The military seized power in Thailand after continuing political unrest.
The move followed six months of political deadlock as protesters tried to oust the government of Yingluck Shinawatra.
But the army's removal of her elected government has drawn widespread international criticism.
Mr Sombat was arrested late on Thursday in the eastern Chonburi province.
"We have a team who tracked him through the internet," army spokeswoman Sirichan Ngathong told the AFP news agency.
Officials said soldiers and police were able to locate the IP address used by Mr Sombat to post his comments.
His arrest has been denounced by Amnesty International who described it as part of "a systematic and widening crackdown on key human rights" by the military.
"Sombat Boonngamanong should be released immediately unless he is charged with a recognisable criminal offence and remanded by an independent, civilian court," said human rights group's Asia director, Richard Bennett.
"This is the latest in a disturbing wave of arrests of people purely voicing disquiet about the military regime. The army's course of action is looking increasingly like a purge."
Hundreds were detained after the coup, but most have since been freed, correspondents say.
Meanwhile, corruption investigators have widened their inquiry into former Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra, investigating her private assets.
The National Anti-Corruption Commission's investigation is connected to a rice-subsidy scheme, in which the government bought rice from farmers at above-market prices to boost rural incomes.
The commission had already indicted Ms Yingluck over charges of dereliction of duty, saying that she failed to heed advice that the scheme was potentially wasteful and prone to corruption.
Ms Yingluck was detained last month at an undisclosed location as leaders of Thursday's military coup tightened their grip on power.
Mr Sombat previously led a pro-democracy group called Red Sunday, reports the BBC's Jonathan Head in Bangkok.
He was also one of the only prominent red shirt activists to defy the Thai military by taunting them from his Facebook and Twitter accounts, our correspondent adds.

So he has nicked and reworked her totemic policy of flogging council houses to their working-class tenants - some of whom redefined themselves as a new generation of aspirant Tories.
He, therefore, hopes that he will win a few supporters among the 1.3 million tenants of housing associations who would be given the right to buy their properties on the same generous terms available to council house tenants - namely maximum discounts of 70% based on length of occupancy.
But although the electoral politics are about whether it makes sense to turn renters into owners, the economics and social policy are largely about something different - they are all about what impact the policy would have on a nation chronically short of housing, especially affordable housing.
Therefore, the more interesting aspect of the manifesto pledge is that local authorities will be forced to sell their most expensive housing stock - properties judged as the third most pricey of all properties in an area - as and when those properties become vacant, to raise an estimated £4.5bn a year.
The £4.5bn putative proceeds would be used for four purposes: to pay for the housing association sale discounts (of course); to clean up poisoned brownfield land for housing development; and to provide the funds for housing associations and local authorities to replace sold housing on a one-for-one basis.
It is that very last point, the replacement of the sold stock, which matters most - in that if the sold housing were replaced precisely by new building, this policy would have a significant positive impact on the supply of new affordable housing, in a country desperate for such construction.
Now the Tories admit that they can't force the housing associations - who hate being forced to sell their properties - to replace the sold homes. But they insist that if the associations chose to shrink and shrivel, the funds will be directed to the construction of starter homes in other ways.
In other words, there is a risk that - for a few years at least - the policy would lead to a contraction in the supply of affordable rented housing.
As for local authorities, the Tories say they will legislate to force them to replace the expensive properties being sold with cheaper ones. So in that sense they would address the concern raised by Shelter that local authorities' record of replacing sold housing is truly lamentable.
Campaigners for affordable housing, like Shelter, will, therefore, judge this policy on whether local authorities can really be forced in a timely way to build new social housing to replace what would be sold. | Stevenage have signed central defender Luke Wilkinson from League Two rivals Luton Town on a permanent contract.

The posts will be lost in the Factual and Music department which currently has 110 members of staff.
BBC Wales said the changes reflected a reduction in output as a result of the Delivering Quality First (DQF) programme of savings.
Savings of more than £10m are required by 2017.
A BBC Wales spokesperson said: "This has been a very difficult decision and we will work closely with staff to try to minimise the personal impact of these changes.
"The proposed post closures in the 110-strong department (which includes 80 permanent posts) reflect the changing production requirements for local and network TV production, and follow a review of future staffing levels.
"The changes also reflect an overall reduction in local production output as a result of the DQF savings introduced after the last licence fee settlement."
The spokesperson added that the department had a strong track record in local and network production across television and radio, including X-Ray, Crimewatch and The One Show.

Write a concise summary for the following article. | A retest of Carter's sample from the 2008 Games was found to contain a banned stimulant in January.
The 31-year-old now awaits a date for his case to be heard at the Court of Arbitration for Sport, his lawyer said.
Carter and Bolt won the 4x100m men's relay in Beijing, along with Michael Frater and Asafa Powell.
Bolt, 30, completed an unprecedented 'triple triple' in Rio last summer, but the International Olympic Committee ruling to punish the Jamaica team leaves him with eight Olympic golds.
Speaking in January, Bolt - who also won 100m, 200m and 4x100m gold at London 2012 and Rio 2016 - said it was "rough" to have to give back one of his medals but insisted "it hasn't changed what I have done throughout my career".
Carter's was one of 454 selected doping samples retested by the International Olympic Committee last year. It was found to contain the banned stimulant methylhexaneamine.
He was also part of the 4x100m team in London five years ago and helped Jamaica win at the World Championships in 2011, 2013 and 2015.
Nottingham's Clinical Commissioning Groups said some services could be delivered in a "community setting".
Heather Peacock, from West Bridgford, who went into coma following the crash in 2015, said this would be a mistake.
Dr James Hopkinson, clinical lead at one CCG, said the measures were about getting "best value" for patients.
Ms Peacock was in a coma for eight weeks following the accident on 1 April which, along with her brain injury, left her with limited movement down her left side.
The 24-year-old, who has been receiving care at Nottingham's City Hospital, said the part of the proposals involved providing only 16 weeks of outpatient care for people with brain injuries.
"I'm very worried about future patients... I want everyone to get the amount of great care and support that I received," she said.
"I've been going back to outpatients for a year now and it has only been in the last few weeks that I have improved quite dramatically."
Seven hospital-based services, including neurology assessment and brain injury care, could be affected if the proposals go ahead.
The local CCG groups said those services based at Nottingham University Hospitals (NUH) could be delivered in the community, closer to patients' homes.
Dr Hopkinson said: "We're aiming to ensure all those services are fit for purpose and meets the patients' needs and give the best value for money for the public and taxpayer."
The Health Service Journal said it had seen a leaked document to staff that said 13 services would be decommissioned by the CCGs this year.
One of its senior journalists, Shaun Lintern, said it referred an additional 17 services, which are not mentioned in the online consultation, but would be "redesigned".
He said many were to be finished and signed off by July which was "extremely ambitious." | Nesta Carter has appealed against the decision to strip him and a Jamaica team including Usain Bolt of Olympic gold because of a positive drugs test.

Can you summarize the following content in brief? | But both firms said they expected to meet sales goals stated previously.
Nestle reported organic growth of 2.3% in the first three months of the year, boosted by Asia and Africa.
At Unilever, owner of Dove, Ben & Jerry's and other household brands, underlying sales increased 2.9%, lifted by higher prices.
Unilever's total sales, which include the effects of mergers, sales and currency, were 13.3bn euros (£11.1bn), up 6% year-on-year in part on exchange rate factors.
The Anglo-Dutch firm, which rebuffed a takeover by US rival Kraft Heinz in February, said the quarterly growth vindicated its long-term strategy.
Unilever stung into action by Kraft
Unilever: Profile of a consumer goods giant
Chief executive Paul Polman said: "The first quarter shows growth once more ahead of our markets."
"This reflects our continued investment in both innovations and brand support and reconfirms the strength of our long-term sustainable compounding growth model."
After spurning Kraft, Unilever announced a plan to cut costs and sell or spin off its struggling spreads business, which includes Flora and Stork. Excluding that unit, underlying sales were 3.4%, Unilever said.
The consumer goods giant also highlighted appetite for products such as air purification brand Blue Air in China and new products, such as chocolate-topped pints of Ben & Jerry's. The firm also raised its prices, a move that led to a row with supermarket Tesco in the UK last year.
Analysts said Thursday's report pointed to a positive future for Unilever. The firm said it expects to deliver sales growth of 3% to 5% for the year.
"Unilever have been pushed by the Kraft Heinz approach into a more radical pace and scale of change than they had originally chosen for themselves," Steve Clayton, fund manager of the HL Select equity funds, wrote in an analyst note.
"We think the group has enormous potential to steadily boost returns whilst compounding sales over time."
Nestle, known for its KitKat chocolate bars, Purina pet food and Nescafe coffee, reported total sales of 21bn Swiss francs (£16.44bn), growth of less than 1% from the first quarter of 2016.
That number was hurt by the impact of currency fluctuation and sale of an ice cream business.

Nestle said it still expects to meet its 2% to 4% organic sales growth target for the year. The Swiss company highlighted the strength of its skin care products and of Nespresso, which is gaining traction in North America.
The firm also said Nescafe pricing was up in Europe, the Middle East and North Africa.
"The leap year comparison and other seasonal effects made the start of this year particularly challenging," said Nestle chief executive Mark Schneider. "We were encouraged by the growth in Asia and the resilience of consumer spending in Europe." | Soft growth in North America, Europe and Brazil hurt sales at Unilever and Nestle, two of the world's major consumer companies. |
Write a short summary of the following excerpt. | With Donald Trump elected as the next president, the Republicans retained their majorities in the House and Senate.
Republican dominance over Congress in principle enables Mr Trump to turn his policy plans into law.
But how easily this will happen is unclear given that key party leaders had refused to back him.
The night began with majority control of the Senate up for grabs, with 34 of the 100 seats available.
But the Democrats have so far gained just one seat in the Senate, with Tammy Duckworth, a double amputee Iraq war veteran, taking Mark Kirk's place in Illinois. During a TV debate last month Mr Kirk mocked Ms Duckworth's Thai heritage, but later apologised.
Another bright spot was in Nevada, which Cortez Masto retained for the Democrats, beating Republican Joe Heck to become the first Latina US senator.
The final Senate seat to be declared is New Hampshire, where the result is said to be very close and where Democrat Maggie Hassan has declared victory over incumbent Republican Senator Kelly Ayotte.
Elsewhere Republicans hung on to other key seats:
Democrats also failed to significantly dent Republican advantage in the House, with just five Republican incumbents losing.
House Speaker Paul Ryan, who had distanced himself from Mr Trump after previously endorsing him, won re-election to the House of Representatives in Wisconsin.
"We are eager to work hand-in-hand with the new administration to advance an agenda to improve the lives of the American people." Mr Ryan told supporters.
Ilhan Omar became the US' first Somali-American legislator, with victory in a House race in Minnesota. She came to the US while still a child, escaping Somalia's civil war with her family and spending four years in a Kenyan refugee camp.
And in Nevada, Catherine Cortez Masto, the former state attorney general, was elected as the first Latina US senator.
In other developments, the controversial Republican sheriff of Maricopa County, Arizona, was voted out after he was charged with contempt for ignoring a judge's order to stop patrols targeting Latinos.

Please provide a short summary of this passage. | Walker, 23, was injured in a collision and taken to Miami's Jackson Memorial Hospital, where he died on Friday.
"We are grieving the loss of a special young man," said the Ravens on Twitter, of Walker, who was drafted in 2015 and played eight games last season.
"Tray was a young man with a good and kind heart," added Ravens coach John Harbaugh in a statement.
"He was humble and loved everything about being part of the Ravens' team. He loved his team-mates, the practice and the preparation, and that showed every day.
"He was coachable, did his most to improve and worked to become the best. I'll never forget that smile."
But the battle for second place seems to be hotting up, with opinion polls suggesting that Scottish Labour and the Scottish Conservatives are currently neck and neck.
Here, John Curtice, professor of politics at Strathclyde University and the chief commentator at whatscotlandthinks.org.uk, looks at what the polls have been saying, and what we should be reading into them.
One of the first rules in the reporting of opinion polls is that those that purport to show a change in who is ahead and who is behind secure much more publicity than do those that suggest that little, if anything has changed. The exceptional is more interesting than the mundane.
However, the exceptional may be just that - unrepresentative of the real picture, a "rogue" poll that misleads rather than informs.
So what should we make of the poll from YouGov in Thursday's edition of the Times that has been widely reported as showing that the Conservatives have, for the first time since the creation of the Scottish Parliament in 1999, overtaken Labour in voting intentions for this coming May's Holyrood election?
Such an outcome would constitute an earthquake in Scottish politics. Not since 1959 have the Tories managed to outpoll Labour in a national election north of the border.
Well, first of all, the YouGov poll does not constitute clear evidence that the Tories have overtaken Labour.
True, with 20% of the vote to Labour's 19%, the party is put slightly ahead in the battle for constituency votes.
But given the random variation to which all polls are subject, this statistically is simply a dead heat. We just cannot be sure which of the two parties is ahead.
Meanwhile on the second of the two votes that voters will be invited to cast in May, that is, for a regional list, the poll did actually put the two parties neck and neck in 20% each.
At the same time, no other poll has suggested the two parties are even equal with each other. Perhaps then it is but no more than a "rogue".
That said, YouGov is not alone in one respect. In recent weeks every single poll has identified a modest but noticeable increase in Conservative support.
Since the beginning of the year four companies have conducted polls of vote intentions for May's election. On average they have put the Conservatives on 17.5% (on both ballots).
But when those same four companies polled back at the beginning of September they credited the Conservatives on average with just over 14%.
While the result of one poll might be dismissed as an aberration, when four polls all point in the same direction we can be pretty sure that something really has happened.
Meanwhile, Labour's support, already much diminished, has ebbed away yet further over the same period.
Back in September Labour was averaging between 21% and 22%. Now the party stands between 19% and 20%. The party has apparently slipped by another couple of points.
Between them the three point increase in Conservative support and a two point drop in Labour is enough to ensure that all the polls agree that the Conservatives are now breathing down Labour's neck, even if they may not necessarily as yet caught them up.
But there are of course still three months to go to polling day. Perhaps the slow Tory advance will continue, in which case maybe they will be able to edge past Labour.
But equally, of course, Labour might recover - and avert the threat that Ruth Davidson's party currently apparently poses.

Summarize the content of the document below. | The lower house backed the removal of a controversial clause known as Article 308.
Rights activists have long campaigned to abolish the provision, whose proponents argued protected victims from the social stigma of rape.
The decision must still be approved by Jordan's upper house and ratified by the king before it takes effect.
Jordan is one of a declining handful of countries in the region with such loopholes in its penal code.
Last week Tunisia revoked a similar provision for rapists there, while Lebanon is also considering following suit.
In Jordan, a pro-Western but socially conservative kingdom, campaigners welcomed the move.
"This is a victory for the women's movement and human rights movement in Jordan," Salma Nims, of the Jordanian National Commission for Women, told the Associated Press news agency.
Article 308 had allowed for perpetrators to have rape charges dropped if they married their victim and did not get divorced for at least three years.
Some MPs had wanted to keep it restricted to cases where a suspect was accused of consensual sex with a person between 15 and 17 years of age.
A royal committee and the Jordanian cabinet had already called for the provision to be dropped.
Other countries in the Middle East and North Africa which still have such laws are Algeria, Iraq, Kuwait, Libya and Syria, as well as the Palestinian territories, according to Human Rights Watch. | Jordanian MPs have voted to scrap a law enabling rapists to avoid punishment if they marry their victim. |
Summarize the provided section. | The proposed "Leisure Hall" development will include a new cinema, restaurants, bowling and indoor golf.
Joint owners British Land said the new 330,000 sq ft (27,800 sq m) facility was a "significant" step in improving the centre's "leisure provision".
A planning application is due to be submitted this year.
British Land said the proposal will mean Meadowhall can provide "dining and entertainment experiences not currently available at the centre".
Centre director Darren Pearce said the extension will be housed beneath a glazed, lattice roof "four times the size" of the roof at King's Cross railway station.
"This is a very exciting era for Meadowhall," he said.
"This is more than it cost to build Meadowhall in the first place so it's a massive commitment by investors to the region."
A public consultation is due to be held on 3 and 4 June at the shopping centre.
If the plans are approved work on the new leisure hall is expected to begin in 2018 with a view to opening in late 2020.
Meadowhall opened in 1990 at a cost of £250m.
Last year, British Land announced it was investing £50m in refurbishing areas of the existing site. It co-owns the site with Norwegian investment fund, Norges.
The team from Keen Security Lab remotely manipulated the brake system on a Tesla while it was on the move, from a distance of 12 miles (19km).
Using a laptop, the hackers also managed to open a car door without using a key.
Tesla has updated its software to prevent anyone else from manipulating its cars.
The hack took place after months of research and the team from Keen Security Lab posted a video of their efforts earlier this week on YouTube.
During the experiment a hacker took control of a vehicle from the passenger seat, while someone else was behind the wheel.
Using a laptop, he was able to adjust the rear-view mirror while the driver was changing lanes. The hacker also managed to open the trunk remotely, while the car was on the move.
This hack is notable for two reasons.
One, it was conducted far away - as far as 12 miles, researchers said. And two, the sheer amount of control it can wrest from the driver is remarkable - brakes, windscreen wipers, all sorts.
The good news is the security community is so far rising to the challenge of protecting cars from hackers. This hack was discovered by researchers who, as they should, went straight to Tesla before going public.
Tesla's cars are able to get over-the-air updates, meaning Tesla's engineers can automatically rectify the vulnerability in its cars without drivers needing to visit a dealership.
And that's precisely what the company has done.

The former Arsenal and Bristol Academy player has won more than 50 caps for her country.
"Yeovil have been great to me and it's great to now have a club sorted," she told BBC Radio Wales Sport.
She continued: "I'm hoping that finding a club will help me stay in the squad and the team."
Wales boss Jayne Ludlow and assistant Rehanne Skinner will name her side for their upcoming World Cup qualifiers later in the year and James says she was given plenty of support from the pair after Notts County folded.
"They [Ludlow and Skinner] put no pressure on me finding a club, they understood the circumstances I was going through.
"It was important for me to find a club to get minutes to be in Jayne's mind for the selection of the next squad."
James will see some familiar faces at Yeovil, having linked up with Wales internationals Nadia Lawrence, Nia Jones and Sarah Wiltshire at the club.
"It was easy for me to settle in. I've only been to a few sessions so far," she added.
"The transfer across was good. I know most of the players there from previous clubs and playing with Wales, so it was an easy decision for me to make."

It happened ahead of a statement by the DUP leader on a botched heating scheme.
The couple, one of whom is a student at the University of Sussex, had been shopping at the New England Street supermarket in the city on Saturday.
A customer complained after one of the women gave her partner a peck on the cheek.
Sainsbury's later apologised and offered to donate £100 to a charity.
The protest was organised by the university's students' union, which has urged the supermarket giant to review its policy on equality and diversity.
About 200 people gathered outside the store before some of them turned to kiss each other, saying they wanted to "turn the negative into the positive" and highlight equality in the city.
The women were asked to leave the store by a security guard, who was not directly employed by Sainsbury's.
In a statement, a spokeswoman for the supermarket chain said the couple "were not behaving inappropriately and we are very sorry that they were treated in this way".
She added: "Had a senior manager been made aware of the original customer complaint, they would have followed our guidelines and no action would have been taken."
The Students' Union said the supermarket's response was inadequate.
It said the "Big Kiss In" was open to everyone, regardless of sexuality, "to highlight that whomever you wish to kiss, it is to be celebrated".

"The PAC hope this inquiry will ensure no stone is left unturned in the quest to ensure our NHS is as efficient and effective as it can be."
He continued: "The general public and staff have a clear interest in this and we hope that the inquiry will serve to enhance the understanding of the public on the cost pressures of the Department of Health and Social Care."

What is a brief summary of the information below? | Directed by Clint Eastwood and starring Bradley Cooper as Navy Seal Chris Kyle, the film has taken $337.2m (£223.7m) since its limited release in December.
The latest movie in The Hunger Games franchise has taken $336.8m (£223.4m).
Set during the Iraq war, American Sniper is Eastwood's most successful film to date.
The film had a limited release in US cinemas on 25 December, to make it eligible for this year's Oscars. A wider release followed in January.
According to Variety, it is the first time since 1998's Saving Private Ryan that a "realistic", R-rated drama has secured the largest box office takings of the year in the US.
"The heroic story of Chris Kyle just hit the zeitgeist," said Jeff Goldstein, from film company Warner Bros.
American Sniper was nominated for six Oscars, including best picture and best actor for Cooper, but only won in the sound editing category.
Despite its popularity with US cinemagoers, the film attracted criticism for both its depiction of the Iraq war and of sniper Chris Kyle, upon whose book the film is based.
Globally, Transformers: Age of Extinction is still the biggest film of 2014 having taking $1.1bn (£665.6m) in foreign markets, compared to American Sniper's $140m (£93m).
Robot drama Chappie made its debut at the top of this week's US box office after an unusually quiet weekend, in which takings were 38% down on the same time last year.
Neill Blomkamp's film, starring Hugh Jackman, Dev Patel and Sigourney Weaver, took just $13.3m (£8.8m) but still topped this week's chart.
Blomkamp's previous two films, Elysium and District 9, debuted much higher, with $29.8m (£19.8m) and $37.4m (£24.9m) respectively.
Will Smith's Focus took $10m (£6.6m) in its second week, with The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel - also starring Dev Patel - opening in third place with a strong $8.6m (£5.7m).

Provide a concise summary of this excerpt. | Daniel Foss, 37, of Reynoldston, Gower, died on 24 September 2013.
An inquest on Friday heard he did not look before he stepped out in front of the coach on Kingsway.
Recording a narrative conclusion, coroner Colin Phillips said the road's "unusual" layout and the coach's speed were contributory factors.
Mr Phillips, Swansea's acting deputy coroner, said the coach was a travelling at about 31mph when Mr Foss was hit, but added he was sure the main reason for Mr Foss's death was because he was not looking in the direction the traffic was coming from.
He added: "It was not possible to swerve because of oncoming traffic. Stopping a coach in a split second is impossible."
During the inquest, road safety consultant Mark Steventon also said the road layout played a part in Mr Foss's death.
"In my experience, pedestrians pay very little attention to road signs or road markings," he said.
Mr Steventon also suggested a number of safety improvements for the road, including traffic calming measures and raised and staggered pedestrian crossings forcing pedestrians to look into the direction of oncoming traffic.
Previously, cars and lorries were restricted to one-way traffic, but buses and taxis used a separate two-way section.
Speaking after the inquest, Sgt Gareth Morgan read a statement on behalf of Mr Foss's family.
He said: "We have lost a beloved son, brother and uncle... We are relieved to see that the layout of the Kingsway has been changed and we hope this will now prevent further fatalities on this stretch of road.
"It is devastating that it took Daniel's life and the life of Sgt Louise Lucas before consideration was given to the dangers that this unconventional road posed to pedestrians."
On 31 March 2015 Sgt Louise Lucas, 41, died after being hit by a bus on the same road leading to barriers being installed and a one-way system was introduced on 1 November.
Mr Phillips added: "I am sure the main reason for the death is Mr Foss stepped into the road without looking in the direction the traffic was coming from, in contravention of the red traffic signal."
Swansea council spokesman said: "We'd again like to extend our condolences to Mr Foss's family and friends at this difficult time.
"We will now consider the coroner's findings in more detail to determine whether more action is needed."
The spokesman added changes had been made to the road layout including making it one-way, installing safety barriers and reducing the speed limit to 20mph.
Fire crews were called to the blaze, in the second floor flat at Rowan House on Bishport Avenue, in Hartcliffe at about 12:00 BST on Monday.
An Avon and Somerset Police spokesman said they were treating the death of the man, who was in his 40s, as "unexplained".
He said the force was continuing its inquiries on behalf of the coroner's office.

Can you summarize the following information? | The number is 50 times more deaths than reported now, the study in The Lancet Planetary Health journal said.
Heat waves would cause 99% of all weather-related deaths, it added, with southern Europe being worst affected.
Experts said the journal's findings were worrying.
If nothing is done to cut greenhouse gas emissions and to improve policies to reduce the impact against extreme weather events, the study by the European Commission's Joint Research Centre says:
The research analysed the effects of the seven most dangerous types of weather-related events - heat waves, cold snaps, wildfires, droughts, river and coastal floods and windstorms - in the 28 EU countries as well as Switzerland, Norway and Iceland.
The team looked at disaster records from 1981 to 2010 to estimate population vulnerability, and combined this information with predictions of how climate change might progress and how populations might increase and migrate.
"Climate change is one of the biggest global threats to human health of the 21st century, and its peril to society will be increasingly connected to weather-driven hazards," said Giovanni Forzieri, one of the authors of the study.
"Unless global warming is curbed as a matter of urgency and appropriate measures are taken, about 350 million Europeans could be exposed to harmful climate extremes on an annual basis by the end of the century."
Paul Wilkinson, a professor at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, who was not involved in the study, said the findings were "yet another reminder of the exposures to extreme weather and possible human impacts that might occur if emissions of greenhouse gases continue unabated.
"It adds further weight to the powerful argument for accelerating mitigation actions to protect population health." | Extreme weather could kill up to 152,000 people each year in Europe by 2100 if nothing is done to curb the effects of climate change, scientists say. |

Provide a summary of the section below. | For example, it found that up to 16% of households' energy bills are spent on devices left on standby.
It is estimated that domestic energy use accounts for more than a quarter of the nation's CO2 emissions.
The report
was commissioned by the government and the Energy Saving Trust to unearth the nation's energy habits.
"This standby power is double what we have assumed it to be in past models and policy assumptions," explained Paula Owen, the report's lead author.
"Before, we have always gone with an 8% figure so it was quite a shock."
Within in this study, Dr Owen explained, standby had a slightly wider remit from its traditional perception of the red lights on TVs and videos.
"When we talk about standby in this context, we are talking about things that are on standby and things [that] are idle, rather than [doing] what they are primarily designed to do," she said.
The modern home contained an average of 41 devices, compared with a dozen or so in the 1970s.
The UK year-long study, commissioned by EST, the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) and the Department for Energy and Climate Change (Decc), involved more than 250 households.
Only two previous studies of its kind have been carried out before.
In 2008, Sweden detailed the electricity consumption of 400 households, while a study in France considered the use in 100 homes during 2007.
Dr Owen explained: "One of the more surprising findings from the study is the amount of use from single occupancy households, which were shown to be using as much as, even more than, as family occupied homes."
Another insight was the use of washing machines, which varied greatly across the sample group, Dr Owen said.
"Typically, people use their washing machine 300 times a year; we found that there were some people who were using it three time a day.
"So there is a lot of evidence in this report that shows how people are using their electrical equipment, as well as how often they are using it."
Philip Sellwood, chief executive of the Energy Saving Trust (EST), said that it was "crucial that households across the nation make informed decisions by having the right advice to help them reduce their energy usage and fuel bills".
"This research shows that there's still more work to be done with consumer advice, product innovation and take up of energy-efficiency labelling," he said.
Environment minister Lord Taylor said the government and households could not control the rising cost of energy but could play a part in ensuring that it was used more efficiently.
"Our study has found that homes can save up to £85 by just switching things off and not leaving them on standby," he said.
"Some savings can be made by us, as individuals, by just being more sensible in the way we use energy."
Dr Owen said a big issue for the future would be the increasing popularity of electric vehicles.
"This will dramatically increase our pull on the grid," she told BBC News.
"That is the big growth area over the coming decades, if electric cars do become popular, so we need to see offsets in the domestic setting in order to allow us to power our vehicles in the future."
Rosalyn Foreman, energy adviser for the EST, explained that there were still traditional areas where their efforts could be focused.
"The fridge and the freezer in a house are the real energy eaters. They are the ones that can make a real difference, and it is easier to target the consumer on buying a better appliance.
"It is areas like this where you can make a difference and influence people.
"But we have never had the evidence down to this level of detail before, so it gives us an insight into what we can target and how we target it." | UK homes are consuming much more electricity than previously estimated, a report described as the most detailed of its kind has suggested. |
Provide a brief summary for the information below. | Oxford City Council said Evenlode and Windrush towers in Blackbird Leys will have their rain-screen cladding replaced.
It said no-one would have to be evacuated from the towers and Oxford's other three blocks do not use the material identified as being at risk.
The move follows the fatal Grenfell Tower fire in London on 14 June.
A spokesman for the council said the current cladding would be replaced with "improved non-combustible material" as a precautionary measure.
The government has ordered all aluminium composite cladding on residential tower blocks be tested for fire safety.
Council leader Bob Price said: "Tenants' safety is our top concern and we will not compromise on safety standards.
"We have been working with Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service who have been involved in the design of the fire safety arrangements in the blocks.
"They completed a review of these arrangements and site inspections today, and confirmed that the fire safety measures in place are satisfactory.
"As a result I confirm that it is not necessary to evacuate the towers.
"We're arranging for the work to begin removing the cladding to start as soon as possible, and we'll let residents know more details about all of this as soon as we have finalised them."
The council said Oxford's other three tower blocks have rain-screen cladding made from non-combustible sheet aluminium, rather than aluminium composite.
It added that leaseholders would not be charged for replacing the cladding. | Cladding will be removed from two high-rise blocks of flats in Oxford after it failed fire safety tests. |

Her lawsuit also names Malaysia's civil aviation authority and air force for losing track of the plane with 239 people on board on 8 March 2014.
Many more similar lawsuits are expected before a two-year filing deadline set by a global aviation agreement.
In the lawsuit, Ms Devi - together with her two sons and parents-in-law - alleges wrongful death of her husband, S Puspanathan, due to negligence and breach of contract by Malaysia Airlines and the Malaysian government authorities.
"They were waiting for some development in the search for the plane but nothing has been forthcoming so far. Everyone is hoping for some answers through the court," her lawyer, Shailender Bhar, told the Associated Press news agency.
Several other relatives of some of the passengers on board MH370 have either already filed or are preparing to file similar claims in other countries, reports say.
The 1999 Montreal Convention allows each next-of-kin of an air crash victim to claim up to 113,100 special drawing rights (SDR), a mix of currency values established by the International Monetary Fund. The value - which changes regularly - currently equals to about $157,000.

Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull on Wednesday promoted Mr Wyatt to an aged care and indigenous health portfolio, following a government reshuffle triggered by an expenses scandal.
"His extensive knowledge and experience as a senior public servant in indigenous health, coupled with his work as an assistant minister in this portfolio, makes him an ideal minister for this area," Mr Turnbull said.
Greg Hunt, who takes up health and sport in the reshuffle, described Mr Wyatt's appointment as a "signature moment for Australia".
Mr Wyatt said he was deeply honoured to take on "two crucial portfolios".
A former teacher and public servant, Mr Wyatt joined the Liberal Party before claiming the Western Australian seat of Hasluck by fewer than 1,000 votes in 2010.
In his maiden speech to parliament, Mr Wyatt, wearing a kangaroo skin coat, credited education with offering him the chance to succeed in life.
"I have been a battler for most of my life but I have always driven myself to be successful in order to achieve my dreams," he said.
During the speech he thanked Kevin Rudd, a former Labor prime minister, for his 2008 official apology to the Stolen Generations - the thousands of indigenous children who were forcibly removed from their families by successive governments until the late 1960s.
Mr Wyatt's mother, Mona, was among them.
"My mother and her siblings, along with many others, did not live to hear the words delivered in the apology, which would have meant a great deal to them individually," Mr Wyatt said, adding he shed tears during the apology.
He also paid tribute to his father, Don, who served in World War Two before working on West Australia's railways, for helping to raise the family's 10 children.
Mr Wyatt was returned to his seat in federal elections in 2013 and 2016, and was appointed the assistant minister for health and aged care in September 2015.
His electorate covers a 1,192 sq km (460 sq miles) area extending from Perth's east.
He backed the rise of Mr Turnbull, who ousted predecessor Tony Abbott in 2015, but has praised Mr Abbott's work in indigenous affairs.
Mr Wyatt has supported the push to recognise indigenous Australians in the constitution.
He has resisted calls within his own party to repeal a controversial racial discrimination law that makes it illegal to "offend, insult, humiliate or intimidate" people on the basis of race, colour or ethnic origin.
Despite making a strong argument against the push in August, Mr Wyatt has since made comments suggesting he could be prepared to support it.
The Guardian said Mr Wyatt was one of five current indigenous Australians in parliament, along with Labor politicians Pat Dodson, Malarndirri McCarthy and Linda Burney, and independent Jacqui Lambie. | A Malaysian woman whose husband was on the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 is seeking $7.6m (£5.4m) in damages from the airline and the government.

It was sponsored by the hard-line party of Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman.
It follows other recent initiatives from the Israeli right, like requiring an oath of loyalty from non-Jews.
The motion to establish the commission of inquiry will now go to parliament's House Committee for debate, ahead of a full vote before the Knesset.
MK Fania Kirshenbaum - of Mr Lieberman's Yisrael Beiteinu party - who submitted the proposal, accused human rights groups of branding Israeli soldiers as war criminals.
Israeli politics: A lurch to the right?
"These groups provide material to the Goldstone commission [which investigated the 2008-2009 Gaza offensive] and are behind the indictments lodged against Israeli officers and officials around the world," Ms Kirshenbaum said.
A series of arrest warrants for Israeli politicians and military officials have been issued in the last few years, particularly by pro-Palestinian groups in European countries.
The 41-17 vote brought a storm of protest from local rights groups, including Acri, Btselem, Adalah and the Hotline for Migrant Workers.
"Persecution and attempts at silencing will not stop us. In a democracy, criticism of the government is not only legitimate - it is essential," said a statement from Btselem, one of the organisations named in the decision.
The Welfare and Social Services Minister, Isaac Herzog, called it a "political witch hunt" suited to "shady regimes" that would damage Israel's international standing, the Jerusalem Post reported.

Please provide a short summary of this passage. | Prince Charles sampled food and drink including a Duke of Lancaster's Regiment sausage and Hen Harrier golden ale as he toured the Ribble Valley.
Hundreds of people lined Clitheroe town centre to meet the prince who was treated to a preview of produce for this summer's popular food festival.
"There are some very brave people standing out in Clitheroe," he said.
Prince Charles met local food producers and traders who showcased their goods during a promotional event for Clitheroe Food Festival, which attracts thousands of people from across the UK.
The heir to the throne was offered a leek and black pudding sausage and also a marmalade one, which he did not appear keen on, at Cowman's Famous Sausage Shop.
He settled on the Duke of Lancaster's Regiment sausage and said: "I think I will have another of those," quipping: "It's not even lunchtime."
The final engagement of the day in Lancashire was to family-run Dewlay Cheesemakers of Garstang.
As patron of the Specialist Cheesemakers Association, he was given a tour of the dairy and also met the firm's local suppliers, as well as agricultural students from nearby Myerscough College.
Cheesemaker Nick Kenyon said: "Today is an incredible honour. It makes you feel proud and privileged to have had the opportunity to have met him."
The visit was commemorated by Prince Charles unveiling a plaque outside the premises of the firm, which is in its 60th year of business.

Please give a summary of the document below. | One protester was killed and dozens of people were injured as police fired tear gas and the Christians threw stones and petrol bombs.
The Christians said they had permission to build the church, in Cairo's Giza district, but officials said they did not have the proper permit.
Protests on this scale are rare from Egypt's Christians.
They make up about 10% of the country's 85 million population.
There has been friction in the past between the majority Muslims and Christians, who complain they do not have the same freedom to build places of worship.
The interior ministry said more than 100 people had been arrested.
A ring of police surrounded the church in order to prevent construction of the church and security was tight in the Giza suburb.
"People here feel very discriminated against. We can't build the church - why are they stopping us?" said Samih Rashid.
"Every street has a mosque, every church has a mosque next to it," he told AFP news agency.
Some reports said the builders were trying to convert a Christian social centre into a church without the proper permit - something the Christians denied.
"When we noticed indications that it was turning into a church, we told the church authorities to halt construction because a church would require a different licence," Giza governor Sayyed Abdel-Aziz was quoted as saying by Reuters news agency.
He said on the post: "My crib is almost finished in AFRICA. I'm gonna have the craziest House warming party ever."

At the same time, the first funerals were taking place of the 262 victims killed in Saturday's landslide.
But the hunt still continues for any survivors.
The Red Cross told news agency AFP they were still within the 72-hour window where they would hope to find people alive.
However, hopes were fading among residents still desperate to find family members swept away in the torrent of mud, rocks and debris which struck the south-western town of 40,000 early on Saturday.
The flood came after a night of extremely heavy rain, which raised the water levels of the Mocoa River and three tributaries, sweeping away entire neighbourhoods.
Ercy Lopez, 39, who survived by hanging on to a tree, said people were still searching for her daughter Diana Vanesa, 22, but told AFP: "The hopes of finding her alive are slim now."
Those who remain are now awaiting the arrival of humanitarian assistance.
El Espectador (in Spanish) reported there was at least 40 tons of emergency humanitarian assistance on its way to the town, including 2,000 food kits and 1,000 tents.
Meanwhile, President Santos said 7,000 blankets and 6,000 mats had just been delivered, according to El Pais (in Spanish).
On Sunday, Colombia's Farc rebel group offered to help rebuild the town, but their involvement has yet to be approved by the government.
Father Omar Parra told Colombian television that everyone was doing what they could to assist.
"Help is mainly coming from other parishes. We've created an emergency committee and we're doing what we can. Assistance hasn't yet arrived, it's just beginning to now. We understand that neither the regional nor the municipal authorities were prepared for this catastrophe so we're doing what we can."

Provide a summary of the section below. | "Reviens Leon! (Come back, Leon!)," shouts his portly wife. "I've got the same at home."
Today the catchphrase "Reviens Leon!" has been commandeered for a very different campaign: to lure back to France the thousands of tech whizz-kids who spent the last decade fleeing abroad.
In an open letter in Le Monde, the heads of 10 successful French start-ups pleaded with Silicon Valley expatriates to book their return flights to Paris.
"France is not the country it was when you left," they wrote.
"It is now full of the opportunities which you used to search for elsewhere. Today, we've got the same at home.
"It's in France that it is happening. So come back, Leon!"
Today great efforts are being made to show the world that France is no longer a land of "ossified structures, stultifying routines and petty-minded middle-managers" (to use the language of the letter).
The young economy minister and former banker Emmanuel Macron has made three trips abroad this year to high-tech conventions, most recently in Israel last week.
At each stop he urges investors to forget the cliches, and to focus on the business transformation that he says is under way.
So what truth is there in the claim that the French digital "ecosystem" is beginning to produce the goods?
"It is not an exaggeration. Things really have changed in Paris in the last couple of years," says Christopher Ciminelli, who runs the tech news website 01net.com.
"Business creators in France are younger and younger. The government is genuinely taking steps to help. I would say the whole image of France abroad - certainly in the digital field - has become very positive."
The list of successful ventures is certainly beginning to catch the eye.
Top of the list are the three French "unicorns" - non-listed digital companies that are valued at more than $1bn.
These are the internet ad-placing company Criteo; the flash-sales pioneer Vente Privee; and the car-sharing facilitator BlaBlaCar.
BlaBlaCar's founder Fred Mazzella explained to me the changes that have helped his company reach 20 million customers in 19 countries.
"Over the last couple of years the system of financing - which was a real problem in France - has been transformed. Before, there were gaps in the financing chain from business angels to large professional investors.
"But today there are many new types of investor in Paris - like the entrepreneurial fund ISAI - and you can raise anything from one to a hundred million euros. It's made a huge difference, turning start-ups into scale-ups."
Another factor is the spread of incubators - places like The Family, NUMA, and 50Partners - which provide not just a physical base for new companies, but also advice and knowhow.
From the government side, Mazzella praises initiatives such as the Research Tax Credit, which means start-ups can get reimbursed up to three-quarters of their spending on research projects.
But the big shift has been one of mentality.
"A few years ago, all the top students who came out of the best 'grandes ecoles' - their ambition was to work in the established giants like BNP or L'Oreal," says Mazzella.
"Now they all say they want their work in start-ups and build their own."

Of course it is in the interest of Mazzella, Macron et al to talk up France as much as possible. They need the investors and they need the brains.
And not all may be as rosy as they like to portray.
In Israel last week, venture capitalist Yoav Tzruya said French start-ups were still "too happy to stay on the French market, rather than having global ambitions. And they still need better financing."
Macron himself admitted France was "15 years late when it comes to finance - but we are stepping up the pace".
Compared to London, Paris still lags far behind when it comes to attracting outside money.
According to Management Today, Paris drew under 400 Tech Investment Projects in the past decade against London's more than 1,000.
And there remains France's reputation as a high-tax country with an overweening state sector. Le French-bashing is not exactly out of fashion.
Still, one constant has held true through the hi-tech explosion: the ability of French grandes ecoles to turn out highly competent computer engineers and business modellers.

The youngsters' disappearance in broad daylight from a popular entertainment district in a central part of the capital has raised many questions.
Relatives say the police have turned a blind eye to the case because the missing come from a poor area.
Amnesty International says authorities are failing to prevent disappearances.
Police said they had arrested two waiters, who worked at the Heaven bar in the Zona Rosa district of Mexico City, and a woman, in connection with the 12 missing revellers.
Officers are still looking for the owner of the bar, who they say is now considered a fugitive, after searches of a number of premises he had listed as his addresses turned up nothing.
Mexico City Attorney General Rodolfo Rios said investigators were still analysing video footage from surveillance cameras in the area to establish what exactly happened on the morning of 26 May.
Mr Rios said it showed members of the the group - seven men and five women - arriving at the bar, but not leaving it.
Their disappearance made headlines when their relatives blockaded a street in the Tepito district of Mexico City, demanding that police take action.
The relatives alleged that officers had done nothing after being informed that the group had gone missing.
Investigators said they had interviewed people who were in the area at the time of the disappearance, but said only one man had reported seeing anything suspicious.
According to the man's account, masked gunmen stormed into the Heaven bar at 10:00 on Sunday, seized the group of 12 youngsters and drove away with them in several vehicles.
Officers who tried to question the man further said he had provided a false name, telephone number and address. They have not been able to locate him since.
Investigators said they had not found any trace of a struggle inside the bar.
Relatives of the missing have accused the authorities of not acting in a timely manner because most of the members of the group reside in Tepito, one of the poorest and most dangerous areas of Mexico City.
Three of the missing are related to Tepito crime bosses currently serving time in prison, which has led to speculation in the media that the group may have been kidnapped by a rival gang.
Leticia Ponce said she had delayed telling her jailed husband, Jorge Ortiz Reyes, about the disappearance of their 16-year-old son, Jerzy, in order not to "add to his worries".
Mrs Ponce said that once she did inform Ortiz Reyes, known as The Tank, he had told her "to move Heaven and Earth to find my baby".

"My husband is paying for his crimes, and my son has nothing to do with that. If they were after him they would have taken just him, and not the other 11," she explained.
