US Gun Laws Back in the Spotlight

Global business news, with live guests and contributions from Asia and the USA.

The Las Vegas shooting has prompted renewed calls for reform to gun laws in the United States, but will there ever be movement on gun legislation?
We have the latest political reaction from both sides of the debate and hear from Kim Parker author of the report America's Complex Relationship with Guns for the Pew Foundation Center. We'll also hear from Kris Brown, co-president of the Brady Campaign group, which campaigns to eradicate gun violence in the United States.

Also on the programme, how Scotland has moved to ban fracking and why the Taj Mahal has been controversially left out of an Indian tourism brochure.

The Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Fergus Nicoll is joined throughout the programme from New York by Justin Ho from US business programme Marketplace, and from Dehli by Madhavan Narayanan of firstpost.com. They're also joined by the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Cindy Sui.
