Stephen Nolan sits in. How much support is available for youngsters with disabilities? Plus Sir Jeremy Greenstock on Libya.

Stephen Nolan sits in with news, sport and exclusive interviews.

How much support is available for bullied youngsters with disabilities? Maz has Down's Syndrome and is now 25. With the help of a charity supported by Comic Relief she's being given the help she needs to live independently. But as she was growing up she was victimised and even drugged by a gang of girls from her school. She and her mother join Stephen in the studio.

Former ambassador to the UN Sir Jeremy Greenstock is Stephen's guest in the first half hour, debating whether the international community should intervene in Libya.

And newly released minutes from the Bank of England's latest interest rates decision suggest that opinion is starting to shift towards a small rise.
