Parents whose children are taken to school by cab, may be asked to contribute to the costs or find other ways of getting them there - including car shares. David Cameron's vision for the Big Society includes making it easier for charities to bid to run public services and for people to set up charities. But the Charity Commission is warning charity trustees are 'making too many basic mistakes' and failing to inform them when serious problems occur. As the government seeks your views on the future of the water industry, we delve through the Parliamentary archive to find out which arguments dominated the debate when the industry was first privatised. And we examine the latest technology designed to get rid of fat - would you consider freezing off parts of your body to get the perfect shape? And what's the science behind Coolsculpting?
