The Scottish Government has announced an independent inquiry at the Vale of Leven Hospital in Dunbartonshire where eight patients died from the C-difficile bug. The NHS board running the Vale of Leven says it's already been taking action, but staff have apparently been expressing concerns for years.

Plus: With rising food prices, should we cast our fears aside about GM crops?

UK government ministers are looking again at allowing farmers to grow GM crops. They think we need to explore all avenues to bring down the high world price of food. GM crops offer better yields and can grow in poorer soils. So would you think again about buying GM food? Is our love of organic foods now a middle class trend we can't now afford? Do you work in the farming sector and would you like to be allowed to grow GM food?
