WBR: Fracking firms to drill under homes 06 June 14

Wed1, 4 Jun 14

The Queen has opened Parliament, with a speech announcing the UK government's plans for the coming year. We debate a proposed law to make it impossible for landowners to prevent 'fracking' for natural gas under their property, with a leading Green party politician, and industry body the UK Offshore2 Operators Group. Also in the Queen's speech, an anti-corruption and money laundering3 proposal to force firms to declare publicly who owns and controls them. Lobbying group Global Witness, which recently launched a campaign to end anonymous4 company ownership, gives us its verdict. Did you know that Australia is the largest goat exporter in the world? We report from New South Wales on why the animals are proving to be a lucrative5 business proposition for farmers there. And we'll be finding out why big name musicians like Adele are up in arms over the fees YouTube pay independent artists to feature their music on the site.
