Dog attack claims, Data sharing, School uniforms

Five police forces in England promise to investigate all dog attacks on private property. Plus the story of a 98-year-old who was sold insurance he never needed.

The granddaughter of a 98-year-old man has discovered he was paying for seven separate Sky Box insurance policies. The pensioner was also donating more than Β£2,000 a year to 17 different charities every year. His granddaughter believes he had been responding to call-calling companies who had purchased his data.

Five police forces in England have promised they will investigate and prosecute dog attacks that happen on private land. The agreement has been made with Royal Mail following a change in the law last year.

And Tesco has suspended its uniform embroidery service after delays which lead to some school pupils failing to receive their new uniforms before the first day of term.
