Graham Stewart looks at venture philanthropy; plus the Chancellor tells us how he's going to deal with pay and bonuses at Britain's part-nationalised banks.

In a week dominated by news of bankers bonuses, Graham Stewart examines what companies are doing to put something back into the community.  He's joined by John Anderson, chief executive of Enlight - a new venture philanthropy fund for members of the Entrepreneurial Exchange; and Keith Punler, who heads up investment firm Kapital Corporation, as well as giving his time to charity.

Our business correspondent Hayley Millar speaks to the chairman of Enlight's advisory board, Jim McColl -  chairman and chief executive of Clyde Blowers - and finds out why he's so keen to give something back.

And the Chancellor Alistair Darling tells BBC Scotland's business editor, Douglas Fraser, how he's going to deal with pay and bonuses at Britain's part-nationalised banks.
