Eileen Macdonald reports on the campaign to restore consultant-led maternity services in Moray so that women avoid the long journey to Aberdeen to give birth. There are also demands for improved maternity and women鈥檚 health services in Caithness. In Poland there is a shortage of coal due to a ban on Russian imports as a result of the war in Ukraine. Annabel Maclennan reports on how people fear they will struggle to keep their homes warm through the winter, and concerns that the re-opening of the country鈥檚 old mines to make up the shortfall and increased use of low-grade coal will increase air pollution.

Seirbheisean m脿thaireil Mhoireibh

Seirbheisean m脿thaireil Mhoireibh
Gheall R霉naire Sl脿inte na h-Alba gun till seirbheis mh脿thaireil le 脿rd-dhotairean an ceann na seirbheis gu Moireibh. Th脿inig l霉ghdachadh air an t-seirbheis aig Ospadal Dr Gray's ann an 2018 ri linn cion luchd-obrach. Feumaidh a' mh貌r-chuid de bhoireannaich anns an sg矛re, agus a tha an d霉il ri leanabh, uair a th矛de gu leth a shiubhail gu Obar Dheathain, far a bheil 脿rd-dhotairean. Tha luchd-iomairt leithid Keep Mum (Maternity Unit Moray) ag r脿dh gur e suidheachadh f矛or chunnartach agus cugallach a th' ann agus nach fhada gus am bi tubaist mhairbhteach ann. Tha ceistean m貌r ann ged-t脿 cuin d矛reach a thilleas an t-seirbheis gu Moireibh, d猫 chosgais a bhios na chois agus d猫 a' bhuaidh a bheir an co-dh霉nadh air seirbheisean sl脿inte eile san eadar-ama, gu h-脿raid sa Gh脿idhealtachd. Dh'fhaodadh gun t猫id na ceistean sin a fhreagairt goirid ron Nollaig agus d霉il ri fiosrachadh a bharrachd.

Moray's maternity services

Moray's maternity services
Scotland's Health Secretary promised the reinstatement of consultant-led maternity services to Dr Gray's in Moray. The service was downgraded in 2018, with a lack of staff being cited. The majority of expectant mothers from the area travel the 90-minute journey to Aberdeen. Campaigners like Keep Mum (Maternity Unit Moray) say this is completely inadequate, dangerous and a fatality is inevitable. But when will this happen, what will it cost to see the return of the service and how will this impact other health services in neighbouring communities in the interim. Campaigners hope many of these basic questions will be answered when a service update is expected later in December.

Gainnead guail sa Ph貌lainn

Gainnead guail sa Ph貌lainn
Tha 70% de dhachaighean anns a' Ph貌lainn an eiseimeil gual airson an teasachadh. Tha a' Ph貌lainn a' cladhach barrachd guail na d霉thaich sam bith eile san Aonadh 贰貌谤辫补ch. Ach ri linn cr矛onadh anns a' ghn矛omhachas, thathas cuideachd ga cheannach bho thall-thairis. Bha 75% dhan ghual seo a' tighinn 脿s an Ruis. Anns a' Ghiblean, ri linn cogadh na h-Ugr脿in, chuir Riaghaltas na P貌lainn casg air gual Ruiseanach mar ph脿irt de smachd-bhannan. Cha do rinn a' ch貌rr dhen EU seo chun an L霉nastal agus mar sin, bha 霉ine ullachaidh aca. Cha robh aig a' Ph貌lainn. Tha sin a' ciallachadh gu bheil an gual a-nis gann agus gu bheil duilgheadasan air a bhith aig m貌ran ann a bhith ga fhaighinn air thoiseach air m矛osan fuar a' gheamhraidh. Tha 贰貌谤辫补 a' rannsachadh a' bhuaidh a tha seo a' toirt air muinntir na d霉thcha agus na tha an Riaghaltas a' d猫anamh mu dheidhinn.

Coal shortage in Poland

Coal shortage in Poland
Seventy percent of Polish homes are dependent on coal for heating. Poland mines more coal than any other country in the EU but due to a decline in the industry, they've had to supplement this with foreign imports. Seventy five percent of Poland's imported coal used to come from Russia. In April however, as a result of the war in Ukraine, Russian coal was banned by the Polish Government. This sanction was also implemented by the rest of the EU but not until August, giving them time to stockpile. Poland didn't have this time. That has resulted in a coal shortage and many Poles have faced issues in accessing coal ahead of the cold winter months. 贰貌谤辫补 looks at the impact this has had on the people of Poland and what the government is doing about the situation.
