The seventh of eight programmes News of the Second World
'You in the West sometimes don't understand our way of life. We have such a saying: don't intrude in another man's monastery with your own Bible. Your Bible is good for you. Our Bible is good for us.'
Melor Sturua is Foreign Editor of the Soviet government newspaper Izvestia. The Soviet Union believes in government control of news and information. To Western eyes this is censorship, but to many emerging nations it is an attractive model. Peter France follows the publication of one day's edition of Izvestia and talks to MELOR STURUA about the role of the journalist and the press in Soviet society.

The seventh of eight programmes looking behind the doors of Westminster and Parliament.

About 70 new Acts of Parliament are 'enacted' every year at Westminster after a long and complicated process which starts as a proposal by Government, then drafted as a Bill by civil servants before being presented to Parliament for consideration.

Getting a bill through requires firm and thorough organisation by the politicians, culminating quite often in a little talked-about but powerful group known as 'the usual channels'.

Tonight's programme probes the heart of the machine which makes our laws.
