Description: The Roman Catholic Church in Australia has formally rejected a landmark inquiry's recommendation that priests should be forced to report sexual abuse disclosed during confession. The Australian Catholic Bishops Conference said breaking the seal of confession was "contrary to our faith and inimical to religious liberty". Also in the programme: The head of the United Nations Mission to Libya, Ghassan Salame, gives his reaction to the violence in Tripoli; and why the European Commission wants to put an end to daylight saving time.
