BBC Radio 4 - The World This Weekend, 26/01/2014

Global news and analysis presented by Shaun Ley.

The latest national and international news with Shaun Ley, including children in police cells, regulating industry on the moon, and why is the UK less productive than Italy?

Why children with mental health issues end up being detained in police cells? We speak to England's health minister Norman Lamb. As the Prime Minister calls for an increase in productivity - we ask why the British are less productive than the Italians. Plus, as private enterprises aim to get to the moon, we ask if there's a need for lunar regulation. Presented by Shaun Ley.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
