What is the summary of the provided article? | Mitzi Steady, aged four, Robert Parker, 59, Philip Allen, 52, and Stephen Vaughan, 34, died in the crash on Lansdown Lane in Bath in February 2015.
The court was told parts of the braking system were "fractured or loose" and would have failed roadside tests.
Driver Phillip Potter denies causing death by dangerous or careless driving.
His boss at Grittenham Haulage Ltd, Matthew Gordon, 30, of Dauntsey, who was driving another truck in front of Mr Potter, also denies 14 offences; while the truck company's mechanic, Peter Wood, 55, of Brinkworth, denies four charges.
Gary Ford, of the Drivers and Vehicle Standards Agency, described how he examined the vehicle four hours after the accident and found one of the brakes to be "unusually hot" at 62C (144F).
But, he said, one other brake was just 5C (41F) suggesting it was "doing nothing".
He also told the jury that some of the reaction brackets (part of the braking system) "were fractured or loose" and in such a poor state of repair that the lorry would "have been taken off the road in a standard roadside check".
A former driver at Grittenham Haulage Ltd previously told the court he had experienced brake failings, electrical faults and air pressure faults.
In one incident, he said he felt the brake go "straight to the floor" as he attempted to stop behind a car making a sharp turn. He described the brakes as having a "spongy sensation".
The lorry hit several pedestrians, including Mitzi, from Bath, and a car containing Mr Allen and Mr Vaughan, both from Swansea, and Mr Parker, from Cwmbran, south Wales.
Phillip Browne, who lived on Lansdown Lane, told the court last week he heard Mr Potter describing what happened immediately after the crash.
He said he heard the driver say: "I think I've killed them. I was coming down the hill. I put my foot on the brake and there was nothing there."
Mr Potter, 20, of Dauntsey, is also charged with causing serious injuries to Karla Brennan and Mitzi's grandmother Margaret Rogers by dangerous driving.
He denies a total of 10 charges against him. The trial continues.
The referendum was held on Sunday in Saint-Apollinaire, a town of about 5,000 located just outside Quebec City.
Provincial rules meant only 49 people were eligible to vote; the nays won 19-16 and one ballot was rejected.
The cemetery was proposed by the Quebec Islamic Cultural Centre, which was the site of a shooting that killed six people and injured 19 in January.
"We never thought people could oppose the installation of a cemetery," the centre's president Mohamed Labidi told Radio-Canada. "What are they afraid of?"
The Islamic cultural centre had purchased a plot of land in a wooded area next to an existing cemetery after the shooting. The only Muslim cemetery in Quebec is in Laval, hours from Quebec City.
The town's decision to oppose the cemetery has led to an outcry amongst Muslims and civil-rights advocates across the country and may lead to a human rights complaint, Mr Labidi said.
The mayor of the town supported the cemetery and has said he fears his town's reputation has been hurt.
"They do not know these people so they base their decisions on hearsay," Mayor Bernard Ouellet told the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.
Opponents went door to door to gather signatures to call for the referendum, since building the cemetery would require a minor zoning change. A provincial law allows referendums to be held on zoning matters, with only people who live in the affected area eligible to vote.
That meant only 49 people in a town of 5,000 were eligible to vote, and only 36 people cast ballots.
"We need cemeteries that welcome everybody, no matter their religion, where they are from, their skin colour, their culture. You have to think about that because in 20 years it is going to be a problem," opponent Sunny Létourneau told the CBC.
She says she only supports non-denominational cemeteries. | The brakes of a tipper truck which crashed and killed four people, were "unusually hot" after the crash, a court heard.

Please provide a summary for the content below. | Mr Brett was last seen running in the Torridon area of Wester Ross last Sunday.
A search involving a coastguard helicopter and several mountain rescue teams was launched for the 65-year-old, from the Dingwall area, after he was reported missing.
Police confirmed a body was recovered earlier on Saturday.
Mr Brett left on Sunday 20 September and was reported missing on Thursday when he failed to return from a trip.
The experienced hill runner was thought to have planned to run a route covering Beinn Eighe, Beinn Dearg, Beinn Alligan and Liathach.
The force said in a statement: "During extensive searches carried out in the Torridon area, sadly a body was recovered in the area of Liathach this afternoon and has subsequently been formally identified as that of Mr Brett.
"There are no suspicious circumstances regarding his death."
Prosecutors in Sao Paulo state said Lula should be placed in "preventive custody".
They earlier filed charges accusing him of failing to declare ownership of a luxury sea-front penthouse in the seaside resort of Guaruja.
Lula denies any wrongdoing and says the claims are politically motivated.
The prosecutors said they were seeking the arrest on charges of money laundering for concealing ownership of the apartment.
They said the request was based on an assumption that Mr Lula might try to obstruct the investigation.
The request still has to be accepted or rejected by a judge.
Lead prosecutor Cassio Conserino said the state inquiry was looking specifically into the ownership of the apartment.
Lula, 70, denies all accusations and says he never owned the flat.
His lawyer Cristiano Zanin Martins said there was a "media campaign" against the former president.
"The owner of a property is the person listed in the registry. It doesn't matter who some people think it belongs to," Mr Martins said.
He added that Lula had invested in the project, had visited the unfinished apartment but later asked for his money back rather than receiving property.
Last week, Lula was briefly detained and questioned in a separate federal probe which is looking into whether extensive refurbishment on the penthouse constitutes favours in exchange for political benefit.
The renovations were carried out by one of the country's biggest construction firms, OAS.
Officially the apartment belongs to OAS, which is itself accused of paying bribes to politicians and senior officials at state oil company Petrobras to secure lucrative contracts.
In addition, federal prosecutors are looking into allegations that Lula has sold his influence in President Dilma Rousseff's administration in exchange for donations to his Instituto Lula non-profit foundation.
Last week's questioning of the former president led to criticism not only from his supporters but also from judges and politicians, who said it was unnecessary.
His supporters say the attacks on him are aimed at tarnishing his reputation, amid rumours that he may run for office again in 2018.
Lula was Brazil's left-leaning president from 2003 to 2011 and was succeeded in office by his political protege, Dilma Rousseff, who has record-low approval rates amid a serious economic crisis.
She joined hundreds of people showing support for the former president last Saturday.
Lula, a former factory worker and union leader, remains a very popular figure in Brazil despite the accusations against senior members of his Workers' Party.
Reinventing the Royals was due to air on 4 January, but was pulled from the schedule after problems emerged regarding the use of archive footage.
The documentary investigates the Royal Family's relationship with the media.
A BBC spokesperson said all clearance issues "have now been resolved" and the original programme will be aired.

Can you summarize the following content in brief? | Mr Grayling said it would not be "sensible" to spend taxpayers money on translation facilities.
He said ministers might review the ban if a new MP could not speak English.
Mr Grayling was responding to a call from his Labour shadow, Chris Bryant, who suggested MPs could be allowed to speak Welsh during meetings of the Welsh grand committee.
Mr Bryant asked him: "I understand that the language of this House is English, but Welsh is the mother tongue of many of my compatriots and constituents so is it not time we allowed Welsh in the Welsh grand committee?"
Mr Grayling replied: "I have given this careful thought.
"In my judgement, given the fact that English is the language of this House and given the fact it would cost taxpayers' money to make a change at this moment in time, if somebody arrives in this House who cannot speak English we may need to look at this issue again.
"But I think we have considered this issue very carefully and we should retain the situation where English is the language of this House."
MPs have been able to speak Welsh when the Welsh grand committee has met in Wales, and the Welsh affairs select committee has taken evidence in Welsh at Westminster.
Mr Grayling's comments annoyed Cynon Valley Labour MP Ann Clwyd, who told him: "Can I remind you that some of us took the oath in joining this House in both English and Welsh, and I'd ask you to look again at the proposal to use Welsh in the Welsh grand committee?
"Some of us did not speak English until we were aged five and most of us are now bilingual - but nevertheless the Welsh language and its status is very important."
He told Ms Clwyd: "Of course I do absolutely understand the need to protect the Welsh language and indeed across different administrations over the last generation extensive steps have been taken to protect the Welsh language, to make it very much a part of routine life in Wales.
"My question to you really is: at a time of financial pressure, is it really sensible for us to be spending taxpayers' money in a House where the prime language, the main language, the official language is English, when we have members of this House who are able to talk in that language?
"As long as that is the case, I have considered it carefully but I don't believe we should change things."
Following the exchange, Plaid Cymru MP Jonathan Edwards tabled a parliamentary question asking what assessment had been made of the cost of providing simultaneous and written translation in Welsh grand committees and asking Mr Grayling to publish the findings. | House of Commons leader Chris Grayling has rejected calls from MPs to overturn a ban on speaking Welsh at Westminster. |
Write a summary for the following excerpt. | It will use part of the former Varsity Line that was decommissioned in the 1960s and will also connect Milton Keynes, Aylesbury and Bedford.
In the Autumn Statement, the chancellor said £100m would be spent to "accelerate" the building of the Oxford to Bedford link.
It also allocated £10m to explore options for Bedford to Cambridge.
The government also announced the proposed Oxford to Cambridge Expressway will receive £27m of funding.
The "brain belt" would link existing roads between the two cities and is due to be delivered by the 2020s.
The East West Rail Consortium (EWRC) welcomed the news and has predicted the new line will reduce congestion in London.
Consortium member and Oxfordshire County Council deputy leader Rodney Road said he hoped the western section would be completed by 2019.
Network Rail has also welcomed the the planned restoration of the Varsity Line.
The Campaign for Better Transport said the east-west rail link provided a "real opportunity to embrace truly sustainable development for the 21st century".
But it criticised the proposed expressway as a "missed opportunity" and predicted it would only increase traffic.
Food sales fell by 1.9% compared with the same period last year, with non-food down by 1.8%.
When shop price deflation is taken into account, sales fell just 0.2%.
However David McCorquodale of KPMG said there were "some positives amongst the sea of negative sales figures in December".
He said: "Firstly, the 'sale windows' of Black Friday and post-Christmas saw consumers flock for a discount and this helped to raise the three month average for non-food sales (adjusted for online) to show growth of 0.7% - demonstrating the significant role Black Friday played this Christmas.
"Coupled with retail performance throughout the traditional Boxing Day sales, the statistics reflect how consumers today need a bargain before committing to spend."
He added: "The true cost at margin level to the retailer will only surface as the campaigns wind down."
The fall in the value of sales in December came despite a rise in the number of people visiting the shops.
Footfall figures showed an increase of 1.6% in the run up to Christmas - the sixth consecutive month of growth.
At the same time online shopping is continuing to grow. The latest estimate is that internet sales account for 10% of total retail sales in the UK.
If online spending is taken into account, then non-food sales fell by 0.5%.
Clothing and footwear were the best performing categories in this latest survey and are the fastest growing areas over the last twelve months. | The government has announced £110m of funding for an east-west rail link between Oxford and Cambridge.

Summarize the passage below. | The 25-year-old, who spent last term on loan at Aston Villa, will join Everton on 1 July when his United deal expires.
He was also called into the England squad for Sunday's friendly with the Republic of Ireland to replace the injured Ryan Mason of Tottenham.
"I can think of many reasons why fans will enjoy Tom representing our club," said Everton boss Roberto Martinez.
"The most important one is that he is a perfect fit for what we are trying to build here as he has so much experience of playing in the Premier League and he still has his best years just ahead of him."
Cleverley, who has also had loans at Leicester, Watford and Wigan - where Martinez was in charge - won the last of his 13 England caps in November 2013.
"At the age of 25 and a player who is representing his country, Tom has experienced winning trophies and having big roles in demanding teams," the Toffees manager added.
"Having worked with him previously, I know the type of character he is and I know that, with the Everton fans' support, we will get a very special footballer joining our already exciting team.
"It says a lot also, when someone like Tom is available on a free transfer and he can pick his next club out of many options home and abroad, that he has chosen to play for our football club. That's the perfect start to his career here at Everton." | Everton have completed the signing of Manchester United midfielder Tom Cleverley on a five-year contract. |
Can you summarize this content? | The 35-year-old man was also jailed for two years for his offence, following an investigation into a paedophile ring.
The books include Anne Frank's Diary and the poems of Emily Dickinson.
Judge Paola Di Nicola reportedly hoped the books would help his 15-year-old victim understand the damage done to her dignity as a woman.
However, one author whose book was among those on the list told Corriere della Sera newspaper that it would have been better if the judge had read the works to the convicted man instead.

Please summarize the following text. | The Danes - aged 21, 22 and 24 - took the substance thinking it was cocaine.
Dutch police have released an image of the man believed to have sold the drug to the three visitors.
This is the first case of white heroin in Amsterdam since the deaths of Shaun Brotherston and Bradley Price last year.
The friends from Plymouth were found dead in their hotel room in November with heroin in their systems.
It's thought they believed they were being sold cocaine - not white heroin - and overdosed.
Since September, 20 people have been treated in hospital after taking the drug. Three have died.
Newsbeat spoke to Amy Totterdell - the girlfriend of 21-year-old Shaun Brotherston.
"You think it's not going to happen... but it does.
"Drugs were never a part of Shaun's life. That's why it was such a shock for this to have happened."
Amsterdam police told Newsbeat at the time they didn't think the dealer was deliberately selling white heroin - a purer form than the more common brown heroin - as cocaine.
"We don't know if the man [in the photo] is connected to previous white heroin incidents," a police spokesperson told us today.
"After receiving treatment the three tourists have been released from hospital and flown back to Denmark."

Can you summarize this passage? | Briton Froome, 32, finished fourth on Thursday's tough stage 18 and has a 23-second lead over France's Romain Bardet with three stages remaining.
But the fight shown by his rivals means a third Froome victory in a row is not certain, Hayles told BBC Radio 5 live.
"He hasn't won it yet. He should, but this has been a tough battle," he said.
"The way these guys fought up the side of this mountain, they absolutely turned themselves inside out," added the former Olympic track cyclist.
Team Sky's Froome also believes overall victory is not yet certain despite having completed "the toughest part of the Tour".
Following a flat route on Friday's stage 19, the riders face the final individual time trial on Saturday in the penultimate stage in Marseille.
"It's nice to get through the Alps feeling good and looking forward to the time trial now in Marseille," added Froome.
"Rigoberto Uran is my biggest threat in Marseille. From the general classification group, he is the next strongest in time trials. He's only 29 seconds behind so he will be the guy to look out for."

Froome is targeting his first stage victory on the 2017 Tour in Marseille, but says he will "have no regrets" if he rides into Paris wearing the yellow jersey without winning a stage.
"I'll do my best to try to win the stage and ride for the jersey. I've already seen the time trial course. It's a very fast 22km course. I'll do my maximum for sure," he said.
The Briton could become only the seventh man to win the Tour without securing a stage victory, but Hayles disagrees with claims this would be Froome's easiest yellow jersey.
"I've seen a couple of comments saying this is a dull win - this is anything but," said Hayles.
"Everybody tried to put pressure on Chris Froome but ultimately they failed. It didn't happen.
"He has had to try so hard, the margins are so tight - it's not over yet, he hasn't won it yet."
Captain Steve Smith (134 not out) and Adam Voges (106 not out) reached three figures on the second day after Usman Khawaja (144) and Joe Burns (128) had done likewise 24 hours earlier.

The hosts won the first of three Tests by an innings and 212 runs.
Smith and Voges resumed on Sunday with Australia 345-3, and their partnership was only ended on 223 when Smith declared.
The captain's 134 saw him replace England skipper Alastair Cook as the leading run-scorer in Tests this year, while Voges moved past 1,000 runs in his first year as a Test player.

The 87-year-old, who has not been named by police, was attacked after answering the door of her home in Townhill Road, Hamilton.
A man forced his way in and robbed her of cash. The women was injured during the assault.

Police officers investigating the attack say the woman's death is being treated as "unexplained".
Det Ch Insp Raymond Brown said: "Extensive inquiries are ongoing into the circumstances surrounding the robbery. At this time it is unknown if the lady's death is connected to the robbery and further inquiry is required.
"It is essential that anyone with any information about the robbery comes forward to help establish the full circumstances.
"I would ask members of the public who were in the area of Townhill Road on Saturday 3 September 2016, to please cast their minds back and think about whether they saw anything at all suspicious. No matter how insignificant you think your information may be, let us decide that."

Coleman's current contract expires after Euro 2016 and the former defender says he and the Football Association of Wales are "apart" on terms over a fresh deal.
Reading full-back Gunter says Coleman, 45, is the best manager he has ever worked under.
"I would be gutted if he was not to stay," Gunter told BBC Wales Sport.
"It would make no sense, because it's the first time we've qualified in however many attempts we've had.
"If you were to ask any of the 23 players in the squad, I think every single one would say the exact same thing.
"I would be amazed if the FAW were not doing every single thing possible to sort that contract out."
Coleman succeeded the late Gary Speed in January 2012 and, in qualifying for Euro 2016, guided his country to their first major tournament since the 1958 World Cup.
Gunter revealed the respect for the former Crystal Palace and Blackburn Rovers player in the Wales dressing room helps to inspire the side.
"There is a feeling of wanting to do well for yourself, and for the country, but also because he's the manager," Gunter told BBC Wales Sport.
"What he's done, if you actually step back and think about what he has done in his time as manager, it is ridiculous.
"Yes, he's had a good squad to work with and a really talented group of players, but from where we've come in such a short space of time and the whole feeling around the national team, to what it is today, is unbelievable.
"I have never played in a squad that has the respect for the manager as much as that.
"I've played in squads where the whole squad has been behind the manager, but not to the extent this squad has for this manager. It is crazy really."
Former national team boss Mark Hughes has said the Football Association of Wales have to "be careful" not to lose manager Chris Coleman after Euro 2016.
Gunter is worried momentum could be lost in the long term if Coleman was allowed to depart ahead of the 2018 World Cup qualifiers.
"We want to go to the Euros and do really well, but then take it on, because we've got a World Cup to qualify for," Gunter said.

After weeks of campaigning across the country, Scottish voters made their decision yesterday by answering yes or no to the question: "Should Scotland be an independent country?"
It was the first time people aged 16 and 17 were allowed to vote in a UK referendum.
85% of people registered turned up to vote - a record high for an election or referendum.
The final margin of victory for the pro-UK Better Together campaign was 55% to 45%.

"I was trying to generate as much tyre temperature as I could but made a mistake and spun and lost many places," said the 27-year-old.
"Through a stupid mistake of mine, we lost too many points."
Bottas, who was promoted to Mercedes this year from Williams after world champion Nico Rosberg retired, is in his first season in a top team.
He was signed by Mercedes on a one-year contract and is under huge pressure to perform because the contracts of multiple world champions Sebastian Vettel and Fernando Alonso are up for renewal at the end of this season with Ferrari and McLaren respectively.
Bottas said he was "really happy" it was only a week and not the usual two until the next race, in Bahrain.
Team boss Toto Wolff, who was involved in Bottas' management team for many years before removing himself after signing him to avoid a conflict of interest, said: "Valtteri threw it away behind the safety car. It was very slippery.

"It is such very sad news," he said. "We travelled all over the world together and with his lovely Northern Ireland accent he was always very popular with snooker fans."
Ganley officiated at world finals in 1983, 1987, 1990 and 1993 before retiring from refereeing in 1999.
During that time, Taylor said, there were occasions when he and Ganley crossed swords.
"We had a few words on the table but we were great friends throughout my professional career and Len was involved in most of that.
"He also did a terrific amount of work for charity - he was one of the good guys.
"During the world championships anyone that came anywhere near the Crucible Theatre and saw Len had to give him a tenner.
"He used to raise a lot of money for powered wheelchairs - he was right at the forefront of that."
Ganley was awarded the MBE for charity work and services to snooker in 1994.
He officiated at world finals in 1983, 1987, 1990 and 1993 before retiring from refereeing in 1999.
Six-times world champion Steve Davis, who included the 1983 and 1987 titles among his haul, paid tribute to Ganley.
Davis said: "Len did a very good job of being a referee and a personality at the same time.
"A referee is supposed to be unseen and he liked the limelight, but he still managed to do the job properly.
"He was a great character off the table, but in the arena he was an excellent referee.
"He knew the game as a player, having made century breaks himself, so when he was in charge of your match it was nice to know how well he understood the game."
Ganley's funeral will take place on Wednesday morning at St Paul's Church in Lurgan, with the family requesting donations to the Paul Hunter Foundation rather than flowers.
The 23-year-old spent last season on loan at Craven Cottage, scoring six times in 33 matches as Fulham lost in the Championship play-offs.
He has played for five clubs on loan, including Reading, since his last Chelsea appearance in December 2012.
"It felt like I had to come back and help the team reach what we were chasing last year," said Piazon.
"This is the first time I will spend two seasons with a club. I am excited to see the boys and get back into training."

What is a brief summary of the information below? | Eloise Dixon, her partner and their three children were driving in Angra dos Reis on Sunday, when their car was approached by an armed group, Brazilian newspaper O Globo reported.
She was shot twice, once in the abdomen, but is recovering in hospital.
Ms Dixon's family were unhurt, the paper added.
O Globo said the family had apparently been searching for water to buy in Angra dos Reis - a coastal resort about 90 miles (145 km) from Rio de Janeiro.
According to the O Dia newspaper, they ended up in the Agua Santa - or holy water - community because of a difficulty in understanding the language.
The slum area is known to have drug traffickers.
Authorities told O Globo the family were shot at after they were told to leave their car by armed men but did not understand the request.
One bullet was aimed at the head of Ms Dixon, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, but missed, while two others hit her in the abdomen. Neither of them hit any vital organs.
The director of the hospital where she was treated, Rodrigo Mucheli, told Brazilian media: "The projectile passed through the abdomen and fortunately did not hit the big vessels. She was really lucky."
Ms Dixon, from south-east London, is now reportedly in a stable condition after she underwent two hours of surgery.
A UK Foreign Office spokesman said: "We are assisting the family of a British woman who has been hospitalised in Angra dos Reis, Brazil.
"Our staff remain in contact with the local authorities."
By Katy Watson, BBC South America correspondent
Angra dos Reis, the place that Eloise Dixon was shot, is a jumping-off point for some of Brazil's most famous tourist destinations. It's where tourists catch ferries to head to the beaches of Ilha Grande and not far away is the popular colonial town of Paraty.
But while most tourists would feel safe in those parts, this shooting just shows how easy it is to get caught up in troubles.
Agua Santa is a favela, or slum. A poor neighbourhood that would have probably started informally but then integrated into the main city. They are often controlled by drugs gangs so tourists are not advised to go in without a local resident or guide.
This shooting of Eloise Dixon isn't the first. There have been similar incidents in the city of Rio, with tourists following instructions from mobile apps and straying into favela territory with fatal consequences. | A British woman who was shot after she reportedly travelled to a Brazilian favela by mistake is "lucky" to be alive, according to a local hospital. |
Give a concise summary of the passage below. | The pear tree, near Cubbington, in Warwickshire, is one of the oldest in Britain, campaigners say.
Transport minister John Hayes said he would look into whether the 200-year-old tree could be replanted in another location.
However, experts said replanting the tree would be "prone to failure".
The Ancient Tree Forum, a charity set up to promote conservation, said the replanting scheme was "fraught with problems".
Neville Fay, founder and former chair of the forum, said: "The tree probably wouldn't survive.
"In an ideal world it would be preserved, as would all ancient trees but unfortunately we don't have that kind of protection in the UK."
HS2 originally said it would collect DNA from the tree and replant the young trees in the surrounding area.
However, Mr Fay said he also doubted whether collecting DNA from the tree would prove effective.
"Taking a part of it and growing it on is a very reductionist view," he said.
"Yes, there would be an identifiable gene record but it doesn't replicate the time it has taken to create the ancient qualities of that tree as a habitat and as a natural feature."
Cubbington Parish Council said it would prefer the proposed HS2 route to tunnel under the tree.
The Department for Transport said: "Options for the Cubbington pear tree will be revisited to see whether it can be replanted in another location, away from the proposed HS2 route.
"If this further study by HS2 Ltd shows it is still not possible to move the tree, cuttings will be taken and replanted in an effort to save the genetic material."
The legal claim alleges agent Brian Dreyfuss was cut out of negotiations regarding the blockbuster franchise.
He sued Johnson in Los Angeles Superior Court on Friday, seeking 10% of the director's Star Wars earnings.
Mr Dreyfuss claims he arranged a meeting between Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy and Johnson in 2012.
He also says Johnson told him he was not interested in working on any of the film company's projects.
The agent's legal claim states he was fired in March 2014, about a year before Johnson confirmed he would direct the eighth film in the Star Wars franchise.
The movie, which has just begun shooting, is due to be released in December 2017.
New cast members will include Benicio Del Toro and Laura Dern, alongside Episode VII stars such as Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Adam Driver, Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Lupita Nyong'o, Domhnall Gleeson and Andy Serkis.
Mr Dreyfuss claims he began working with Johnson around 2002 and helped him develop his first film, Brick.
He says he also encouraged Johnson to direct several episodes of the hit TV series Breaking Bad and the 2012 film Looper, starring Bruce Willis and Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

Provide a concise summary of this excerpt. | Dolton Powell, 21, died after a party at the All Nations Community Centre in Gloucester on 23 August last year.
Eight people face murder charges, but a hearing at Bristol Crown Court was told the prosecution needed "time to digest" the Supreme Court ruling.
Judges ruled joint enterprise was wrongly used to convict in some cases.
Joint enterprise had been used to convict people in gang-related cases if defendants "could" have foreseen violent acts by their associates.
However, judges ruled on Wednesday that it was wrong to treat "foresight" as a sufficient test.
Joint enterprise law has been used to convict and hand down long sentences in several high-profile cases including the 1993 murder of Stephen Lawrence.
The 18-year-old was stabbed to death in a racially motivated murder in Eltham, south-east London.
The joint enterprise ruling will apply in England, Wales, Northern Ireland and most UK overseas common law territories but not in Scotland, which has its own rules on joint enterprise.
Following the Supreme Court ruling, prosecuting barrister James Ward told Bristol Crown Court the Dolton Powell murder is "one of the cases which will certainly be affected".
The court was told there was a possibility a number of the defendants will not be facing a charge of murder, but a lesser charge of manslaughter.
"There certainly remains a count of murder against one, but the remainder of the indictments remains to be seen," added Mr Ward.
Close, 20, spent the second half of last season on loan at Eastleigh in the National League.
The Portsmouth academy graduate made four cup appearances for his parent club before nine games for Eastleigh.
"Hopefully this will be the year when I can get a regular run of games in the side," he said.
Walsh has been credited with helping discover bargain signings such as winger Riyad Mahrez for £400,000 and midfielder N'Golo Kante for £5.6m.
Fellow assistant Craig Shakespeare - formerly at Hull - has also agreed new terms with the Foxes.
"We've not signed but it's all agreed," said former Chelsea scout Walsh.
Algerian Mahrez joined from Le Havre in 2014 and was a star player as the Foxes became top-flight champions for the first time in their 132-year history. He was also voted PFA Player of the Year.
Frenchman Kante, who was also on the shortlist, was another who played a key role in the side.
"It's about knowledge," said Walsh. "You can't know every player in the world - that's impossible. But you target certain leagues and you try and find the better players within that league, and then try and find out about them as much as they can.
"Once the season starts you've got until January to make a decision - you don't need to make a snap decision. So if you really believe in a player, get all the DVD evidence clipped up, but then get out and see them."

McIlroy, 26, posted five bogeys in his first nine holes and dropped a further four shots in his second nine.
The world number one has missed the cut at the last two Irish Open tournaments.
Ireland's Padraig Harrington, the 2007 winner, shares the lead with Maximilian Kieffer of Germany on four under par with Soren Hansen one shot behind.
England's Danny Willett, Argentinian Emiliano Grillo and Dane Soren Kjeldsen are two off the pace after carding rounds of 69 at the Newcastle links course.
English trio Luke Donald, Matt Ford and Chris Wood are among seven players nicely placed on one under.
Starting at the 10th, world number one McIlroy, who pledged to donate his prize money this week to his charitable foundation, the official tournament host, strayed occasionally off the tee, was repeatedly erratic with his iron play and struggled with the putter throughout.
The Northern Irishman has won two of his last four tournaments, the WGC-Cadillac Match Play and Wells Fargo tournament at Quail Hollow, but missed the cut at last week's PGA Championship at Wentworth.
"I was caught between trying to play two ways. My poor iron play led to missed greens and I left myself a lot of eight to 12 foot putts for par, pretty much all of which I missed," said McIlroy after his round.
McIlroy's playing partner, American world number nine Rickie Fowler, is in contention near the top of the leaderboard on level par, but the third member of the illustrious group, Germany's Martin Kaymer, has a lot of ground to make up on eight over.
Fowler was making his first appearance since securing the second PGA Tour win of his career in The Players Championship earlier this month.
Graeme McDowell was two under after 15 holes but the former US Open winner bogeyed the final three holes of his round, the seventh, eighth and ninth, to drop back to one over.
The third of the host nation's recent major winners, European Ryder Cup captain Darren Clarke, lies well back on four over, but his compatriot Michael Hoey fared better on level par.
Spaniard Miguel Angel Jimenez is one over, while Lee Westwood registered a three-over-74 in the windy conditions in front of a sell-out 20,000 crowd at the seaside links.
Ernie Els, playing in the Irish Open for the first time since 1998, had a level-par round, but 1999 tournament winner Sergio Garcia is down the pack on four over.
A first prize of £294,000 is on offer for the winner on Sunday.
Ex-swimmer Lauren Steadman continued her unbeaten record in the PT4 event, winning by almost three minutes.
Alison Patrick, who like Steadman has achieved the qualifying criteria for the Rio Paralympics, was victorious in her PT5 event.
Andy Lewis gave his Paralympic hopes a huge boost by winning the PT2 event, while Lizzie Tench claimed gold in the women's PT1 category in Portugal.
Tench's event is not part of the Rio programme.
Lewis, who was ranked 10th in the world coming into the event, beat the top two in the world rankings, Michele Ferrarin from Italy and France's Stephane Bahier.
The 33-year-old from Gloucester, who lost his leg after a motorbike accident when he was 16, put in a superb performance on the 5km run to claim victory.

"I'm disappointed to be out, we were the architects of our own downfall."
The game was Torquay's first without on-loan Forest Green striker Kieffer Moore, who scored five goals in Torquay's previous four league games.
"All the questions are going to be 'is it all about Kieffer Moore?'," added Nicholson.
"It's not. The lads had the chances there, they did the game plan in the first half and they were looking good.

The 27-23 defeat by Wales was a ninth in a row in the championship for the Scots and left coach Cotter without a tournament win in seven games.
"Hopefully we'll get the win and put that to bed," Jackson, who replaced the injured Stuart Hogg in Cardiff, said.
"We don't want to be in this situation. We're tired of it."
Jackson, a fly-half who can also play full-back, was a late call-up to the bench on the morning of the match after Sean Maitland's thigh injury saw Sean Lamont promoted to the starting line-up.
The Wasps player found himself pitched into the action after only 28 minutes when Hogg hobbled off with a back problem, but Scotland led 13-10 at half-time and 16-13 after 55 minutes.
But errors at critical times in the second period helped Wales overpower their visitors with tries from Jamie Roberts and George North.
"To come down here and push them close shows that we are in a good place," Jackson told BBC Radio Scotland. "It's frustrating but I don't think it's necessarily a mental problem.

"Our decision-makers are good and they're used to winning and being in pressure situations and generally make the right decisions. I don't think that's a problem."
With the Six Nations now entering a mini-break, Scotland's players will get a few days off before regrouping for a trip to Rome on 27 February that already looks like a potential Wooden Spoon decider.
But Jackson, 28, feels Scotland are better than that.
"We don't become a bad team overnight," he added. "It's a results-based business so when you look at the results, it doesn't make good viewing.
"But look at the World Cup and how close we were to a semi-final. We've fronted up again and it's just one or two decisions that will get us over the finish line.
"We can't get too disheartened and we have to stick together. We're tired of repeating ourselves but we want to push on and get those wins."
Former England centre Jeremy Guscott on BBC Six Nations Forum: "There has to be a touch of reality. There was a lot of expectation on Scotland after the World Cup but Wales are ranked higher than them and they came into the championship as favourites.
"Scotland have a very poor record against sides that are above them in the world rankings. The expectation on Scotland is too great.
"If you picked a Lions side before the game, how many Scottish players would get in the team compared to Welsh players? There is too much expectation on this Scottish side to win games."
Wales' record try-scorer Shane Williams on BBC Radio Scotland: "It was 'same old, same old' against Wales. Scotland played particularly well, far better than they did against England, and the endeavour was there.
"But they weren't able to capitalise on it and couldn't close it out. They don't have that winning mentality.
"A lot of players in that side are not used to winning Six Nations matches. You have to feel for them because they are playing some good rugby at the moment."
England World Cup-winning coach Sir Clive Woodward on ITV: "Scotland made so many changes in a short space of time, you just get disorganisation. [At 20-16 down, Scotland brought on five replacements between the 66th and 68th minute]
"There were so many missed tackles before George North scored [in the 70th minute]. But that happens when you get so many new people on.
"They just panicked. They were only four points down, there was plenty of time left.

On Tuesday, BBC Radio Norfolk reported that the Championship club had talked to O'Neill but he distanced himself from the role on Wednesday.
Norwich sacked Alex Neil in March, with Alan Irvine appointed interim manager.
Asked on Wednesday, if he had had any contact with the Canaries, formal or informal, O'Neill replied: "No."
"Nothing at all. There has been no contact between myself and Norwich City," O'Neill told BBC Sport Northern Ireland.
The Northern Ireland boss added:"Realistically, it's probably not what I would be looking for at this minute in time.
"I think the club are probably in the market for a head coach. I'm a manager. I've managed my country for the last five years and I intend to manage my country going forward.
"Any approach would have to be made through the Irish FA and it is my understanding that has not happened."
O'Neill added that the story "is just something which has obviously come from the media in England".
Irish FA chief executive Patrick Nelson added: "In keeping with our policy, we refuse to comment on speculation regarding our manager."

Hernandez was sentenced to life in prison without parole.
He was arrested in 2013 and charged with killing Odin Lloyd, a semi-pro player who was dating the sister of Hernandez's fiancee.
Lloyd's body was found with six bullet wounds less than a mile from Hernandez's home.
At the time, Hernandez had a contract worth $40m (£27m).
But within hours of his arrest, the Patriots sacked Hernandez, considered one of the top tight ends playing the game.
Hernandez is not an isolated case.
NFL players have been charged with any number of crimes over the years, from rape to dog-fighting.
Active NFL players are aged, in the main, between 21 and 34 and the arrest rate for that demographic is one in eight.
The arrest rate for people of Hernandez's age - he was 23 - is a startling one in six.
Does the NFL have a crime problem?
During closing arguments, his defence team acknowledged that he was present during the murder but said others committed the crime.
Prosecutors say Hernandez planned the "orchestrated execution" because of an incident in a night club, and then helped to cover it up.
The 25-year-old was found guilty of murder and other weapons charges on the seventh day of jury deliberations.
In a tearful statement to the court, Lloyd's mother Ursula Ward called him the "backbone of the family".

The lawsuit alleged that Tesco's overstatement of its profits guidance, revealed last year, breached certain US securities laws.
The cash settlement was disclosed on Wednesday in the US District Court in Manhattan and requires court approval.
Tesco, the UK's largest supermarket group, has not admitted any liability.
The retailer said in September 2014 it had overstated its profit guidance for the first half of the year by £250m after incorrectly booking payments from suppliers.
The announcement sent Tesco's New York-listed shares down by 15% the following day. American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) account for about 2% of Tesco shares.
Tesco later raised the estimated overstatement of profits to £263m.
The incident led to an investigation by the Serious Fraud Office and other regulators.
The legal action claimed that Tesco had misled investors about its financial health.
Kim Miller, a partner at Kahn Swick & Foti, called the settlement an "outstanding recovery".
The average recovery will be 37 cents per ADR before fees and expenses of about 30%, court papers showed.
Tesco shares, which are down almost 10% this year, rose 1.5% to 171.1p in morning trading on Thursday.
Analysts at Shore Capital maintained their "hold" recommendation on the stock.

Anyone testing above twice the legal drink-drive limit will be ejected from the ground, but groundsman Ian Darler said fans had nothing to fear.
The scheme will also operate at Cambridge Junction and McDonald's in Rose Crescent.
Only fans who appear to be drunk are tested and passing a breath test is not necessary to enter the ground.
Mr Darler said: "Ninety-five per cent of fans will not even know the scheme is in operation".
Security staff at the venues have been given breathalyser kits allowing them to test people before entry.
Mr Darler said stewards had previously made a judgement on people they thought were drunk.
"This will give a fairer and more genuine result as to whether we eject someone," he said.
He added that only two arrests had been made at games this year.
The scheme is funded by Cambridgeshire Police and Crime Commissioner Sir Graham Bright.
Last year, in Cambridge city, 141 people were arrested for being drunk and disorderly or drunk and incapable in a public place.
Sgt Ian Wood said there were a number of alcohol-related laws around sporting events, including an offence of trying to enter a sports ground while drunk.
He said: "My concern is fans will be unaware of these offences. I hope the introduction of the devices will help stewards make empowered decisions about who should enter the ground."

Can you summarize this content? | Tracey McDermott later confirmed she had withdrawn from the recruitment process.
It leaves the race for the top City regulator's job wide open.
Former FCA boss Martin Wheatley left the organisation in September.
Since then, the chancellor has reportedly struggled to find a suitable candidate willing to fill the role.
George Osborne told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: "[The FCA] needs new leadership to take it into its more mature phase. We are looking for the best candidate. To be fair, there's a very effective interim leader in Tracey McDermott, but she doesn't want the job full-time."
Ms McDermott confirmed in a statement that she had interviewed for the role on a permanent basis after taking over as interim chief executive in September.
In a statement released by the FCA, she said: "I have been at the FSA/FCA for 15 years and I remain extremely committed to, and passionate about, the important work we do. It has been, and remains, a privilege to lead this organisation.
"However, going through the recruitment process has made me reflect on what I want to do with the rest of my career.
"As a result, I have decided that this is not the right job for me at this stage of my career. This was a decision taken after many months of careful thought and was not one that I took lightly. "
Since Mr Wheatley was ousted as FCA boss by the chancellor in the summer, the regulator has proposed a time limit be set on payment protection insurance (PPI) compensation claims and signalled a lighter touch approach to its regulation of the City.
Mr Wheatley was originally hired as boss of the FCA because of his reputation as a tough global financial regulator.
But his habit of straight talking led to accusations of banker-bashing by City grandees.
Since his departure from the regulator, a major investigation into banking culture, pay and practices, was dropped.
The decision to ditch the investigation into banking culture, pay and practices was not received well by MP's when it was announced last month, with the chairman of the Treasury Select Committee Andrew Tyrie calling Ms McDermott and her colleagues before his committee on 20 January.
Mark Garnier MP, a Conservative member of the Treasury Select Committee, said he was "disappointed" by the decision.
And the FCA was later forced to deny the Treasury had been involved in the decision to drop the banking inquiry.
It added that a focus on the culture in financial services firms remained a priority, saying: "We have decided that the best way to support these efforts is to engage individually with firms to encourage their delivery of cultural change, as well as supporting the other initiatives outside the FCA." | The search for a permanent boss of the Financial Conduct Authority is expected to take a little longer after the chancellor confirmed the current interim chief executive did not want the job. |

It urged the UK to remain "a close partner of the EU", amid concerns Brexit talks could be acrimonious.
Chancellor Philip Hammond said Brexit had come up "a great deal" at the G20.
"The reality is there will be a measure of uncertainty continuing right up to the conclusion of our negotiations with the EU," he told reporters.
Following the meeting in the Chinese city of Chengdu, the G20 group said it had the tools to cope with the potential economic and financial consequences from the referendum result.
Other factors complicating the world economy include geopolitical conflicts, terrorism and refugee flows, according to the G20.
The president of Germany's central bank, Jens Weidmann, said there were no signs yet that economic development in Europe had been affected by the UK's referendum on 23 June.
The G20 members agreed that despite the Brexit vote the global economy would improve in 2016 and 2017, Mr Weidmann said.
However, new figures on UK companies in the three months to the end of June have raised concerns about the health of the economy before the Brexit vote.
Sixty-six UK listed companies issued profit warnings in the second quarter, which was the most for that period since the financial crisis in 2008, according to accountants EY.
Alan Hudson, EY's head of restructuring in the UK and Ireland, said: "It's been a dizzyingly unpredictable time since the UK voted to leave the European Union.
"What we saw in the second quarter - and are still seeing now - is the initial impact of this uncertainty."
Analysts expect economic data on Wednesday to show the UK economy grew by about 0.5% in the second quarter compared with the previous three months.
Last week the International Monetary Fund (IMF) downgraded its forecasts for UK economic growth, from 1.9% to 1.7% for 2016, and for the global economy, from 3.2% to 3.1%.
On Sunday IMF managing director Christine Lagarde said the G20 had taken place at a time of "political uncertainty from the Brexit vote and continued financial market volatility".
In a statement the G20 finance officials said the global economic recovery was continuing "but remains weaker than desirable".
Separately, G20 policymakers said they recognised that excess steel supply was a global issue.
The excess capacity of steel has had a negative impact on trade and workers and requires a collective response, they said. | The UK's vote to leave the European Union heightens risks for the world economy, finance chiefs have said at the end of the G20 summit in China. |
Summarize the provided information. | It found that some insurers charged up to £75 for cancelling a policy - even in the cooling-off period.
Others charge £50 to renew a policy or £30 for duplicate documents.
In response, the industry argued that overall premiums had fallen and that the market was highly competitive.
In its study, Which? looked at fees being charged by 44 UK car insurers.
It found that one provider, IGO4, charged £35 for adjustment fees, such as changing your name, your address or your job.
Five other companies did not charge anything.
Another provider, 1st Central, charged £50 to renew a policy, while most other companies process renewals for free.
Axa Direct and Swiftcover both charged £30 to provide duplicate documents - again a service that is usually free.
Other companies charged considerably more than their rivals when it came to paying monthly, rather than annually.
"We've found some insurers charging customers eye-watering admin fees that can be hard to avoid," said Richard Lloyd, the executive director of Which?
"We want companies to ensure their fees reflect actual costs, and aren't just a way to squeeze more money from customers."
However, the insurance industry said the market was highly competitive, and that average premiums were lower than they were two years ago.
The Association of British Insurers (ABI) advised customers to read their policy documents carefully.
But it agreed with Which? that extra charges should reflect the costs involved.
"In accordance with the rules of the Financial Conduct Authority and relevant legislation, the fees insurers charge must be clearly and fully set out, and broadly reflect the costs they incur," said James Dalton, the director of general insurance policy at the ABI.

What is the summary of the following article? | The 17-year-old boy was bitten on the hand by an Inland Taipan snake, which usually lives in desert areas.
The boy is in a serious but stable condition in hospital after being given anti-venom.
A drop of Inland Taipan venom is enough to kill 100 people and causes paralysis.
The snake is also more commonly known as the fierce snake, because of the venom's strength rather than the reptile's temperament.
"Police are now attempting to establish how the youth came to be bitten, and hope to speak to the young man once he is considered well enough," New South Wales police said in a statement.
Officials at Mater hospital in Newcastle City, where the boy is being treated, said that the anti-venom was crucial to his survival.
"We had anti-venom in stock, we keep what's called polyvalent anti-venom and that covers all of our snakes," toxicologist Geoff Isbister told ABC News.
The Inland Taipan, described as shy and reclusive, can grow up to two metres long.
It is usually found in Australia's Northern Territory and Queensland, hundreds of miles away from the town of Kurri Kurri, on the coast to the north of Sydney, where the incident happened on Wednesday.
The police do not believe that the incident was related to a break-in at the nearby Hunter Valley Zoo on Sunday that saw the theft of four pythons and two alligators, the police statement added.
Judith Martin, from Hunter Reptile Rescue service, which handled the snake, told the BBC that it would be sent to a reptile breeding programme.
The B797 between Leadhills in South Lanarkshire and Wanlockhead in Dumfries and Galloway is shut for resurfacing.
The rail service is being run to help people from Wanlockhead to get to the doctor's surgery in Leadhills.
It is also being offered as a "commuter service" for some workers at the Museum of Lead Mining in Wanlockhead.
"This service will be unique in that it is usually the other way round, with bus replacements for trains," said David Winpenny of the Leadhills and Wanlockhead Railway.
The trains are usually run at weekends during the summer months on what bills itself as "Britain's highest narrow gauge adhesion railway" reaching 1,498ft (456m) above sea level.
They link Leadhills to a terminus at Glengonnar which is less than a mile from Wanlockhead.

Write a concise summary of the provided excerpt. | The watchdog will begin its examination of several areas within the department on Wednesday.
The department has been rated "inadequate" since 2009 and its most recent inspection was cancelled to allow the government to review the authority's improvement plan.
The council said it welcomed the inspection.
There have been a number of high-profile child deaths in Birmingham in recent years, including those of Khyra Ishaq in 2008 and Keanu Williams in 2011.
The council's children's services were branded a "national disgrace" by Ofsted's chief inspector Sir Michael Wilshaw in October.
The council had been warned the children's service could be taken over by the Department for Education if standards did not improve.
The team is not the only West Midlands authority to have its children's services inspected.
Coventry City Council is currently awaiting the results of an Ofsted inspection of its services, in the wake of the death of four-year-old Daniel Pelka in 2012.
Birmingham's leader Sir Albert Bore said the inspection would "contribute to the growing understanding about what is needed to improve the care and safety of children in this city".
The council is still awaiting the publication of a review of its services requested by children's minister Edward Timpson.
An Ofsted spokeswoman said it could not confirm how long its inspection would take.
Lebanon and Israel are officially at war and have no diplomatic relations.
The incident happened as the Lebanon team sat on the bus waiting to head to the Maracana stadium, before demanding the Israeli athletes must not board.
Israel's athletes insisted on doing so, but the two teams were eventually taken to the ceremony in different buses.
Head of the Lebanese team Salim al-Haj Nicolas told AFP news agency he demanded that the door be closed on the Israeli team, but they "insisted on getting on".
Udi Gal, a member of Israel's Olympic sailing team, said on Facebook his compatriots "insisted on boarding the bus" adding that "if the Lebanese refused to stay with us, they were welcome to take another bus".
Gal said the decision to travel separately was eventually taken to avoid an "international and physical incident".
"How could they let this happen on the eve of the Olympic Games? Isn't this the opposite of what the Olympics represents?" he added.

Summarize the following excerpt. | Soldado, 30, cost Spurs a club record £26m when he signed from Valencia in August 2013 but he only managed seven goals in 52 Premier League appearances.
"This is a very important step in my career," said Soldado, who has agreed a three-year contract with Villarreal.
"When their offer arrived I didn't hesitate as it's a great opportunity to return to Spain and join a big club."
Soldado began his career at Real Madrid, scoring 63 goals in 120 league appearances for their B side, before moves to Getafe, Valencia and then Tottenham.
He has won 12 international caps for Spain and believes this move can help him regain his best form.
"I've been away for two years in which I haven't been able to give my best, but I'm convinced that I can score lots of goals for Villarreal," added Soldado.
"I've spent two very difficult years in England where I lost my confidence. Villarreal's interest has given me the enthusiasm to do great things.

The find is so impressive that Italy plans to create Rome's first "archaeological station" at Amba Aradam, on the city's third metro line.
The new station is being built while archaeologists brush dirt away from artefacts and mosaics 9m (30ft) below street level.
The ruins cover 900sq m (9,700sq ft).
The site, thought to have housed Hadrian's Praetorian Guard, includes a 100m hallway with 39 rooms.
Amba Aradam lies near an important metro interchange at the Colosseum, called Fori Imperiali/Colosseo. The new station, on Metro Line C, is scheduled to open in 2020.
The head of archaeology in the Colosseum area, Francesco Prosperetti, said work on the metro would not be delayed although there would have to be changes to the station's design.
Amba Aradam is named after an Italian Fascist victory against Emperor Haile Selassie's Ethiopian troops in 1936, in the Abyssinian war.
An Italian Culture Ministry official called the unearthing of the Roman Praetorian Guard barracks "exceptional".
The Praetorian Guard was created by Rome's first emperor, Augustus, and served as the emperors' bodyguards and private military force.
Rossella Rea, quoted by the Associated Press news agency, said it was near four other Roman barracks, so "we can characterise this area as a military neighbourhood".

A campaign is still under way to raise £3.8m to build the Chadwick Centre where the exhibits will be displayed.
The Spire and Memorial Wall of Names at the site were unveiled last year.
Air Commodore Charles Clark, of the Bomber Command Association, said: "We have to do everything we can to ensure the project is delivered whilst we still have some veterans alive."
The grant will help create an archive of thousands of personal stories and documents including recollections of some of the remaining survivors for the first time.
Historian Dan Snow said: "Lincolnshire needs a proper memorial to the service personnel who faced appalling conditions as they did their bit to liberate Europe from fascism.
"There is no other centre in Britain or any other country where the history of the bomber offensive can be preserved, gathered, curated, studied and debated. This centre will be a world leader."

What is the summary of the given information? | Frazer, 26, sustained serious knee ligament damage in a training session with German club Mannheimer.
She will undergone surgery next week and will definitely miss the opening qualifiers in Kuala Lumpur in January.
Frazer could also be a doubt for the final qualifiers next July.
Ireland should be capable of progressing from the Malaysian tournament in January when they will be up against lower-ranked opposition and require only a top-three finish.
However the next stage of the process in either Belgium or South Africa will be much more taxing as Ireland will need to beat higher-ranked nations to qualify.
The Londonderry woman was distraught after suffering the injury in seemingly innocuous circumstances.
She said: "I have completely ruptured my anterior cruciate and partially torn my medial cruciate ligament and I am having surgery on 3 November and it will take six to nine months recovery from then."
"I am completely devastated that I am missing the tournament in Malaysia for definite and also unable to finish my first season with Mannheimer.
"I was running fast with the ball unopposed in training and went to pass it off my right foot but it just gave way and I fell and it was extremely painful."
Mannheimer's Director of Sport, Peter Leemen added: "She will be operated on by a specialist, who has already performed this type of surgery on other players in the team."
"The cartilage in the knee is completely in order which is important for a good healing process but it´s is such a pity as Megan was settling in so well with the club and her team-mates."
Frazer was able to travel with the Ireland squad for two international defeats in Belgium earlier this week and found the experience at least went some way towards cushioning the blow.
She added: "It was great to be around the team again and it really lifted my mood. Luckily I don't have too much pain and have started to work on my pre-surgery exercises."
Sergeant Michael Galvin, based in Donegal, killed himself at Ballyshannon police station on 28 May.
He was being investigated by the police ombudsman over his statement about a woman's death in a traffic accident.
The ombudsman has announced it is shutting down its own investigation.
In a statement, reported on RTÉ , it said it had been listening to the concerns of Sgt Galvin's family, colleagues and public commentary.
It said while much of it had been misleading, inaccurate and inflammatory it did have the potential to damage public confidence in the police oversight system.
It added: "We were aware of the possibility of our investigation becoming compromised due to our prior engagement with Sgt Galvin.
"Following our consultations today, we have come to believe that we need stronger vindication of the appropriateness of our interactions with Sgt Galvin. We are therefore calling on the Minister for Justice to consider a Section 109 investigation. In other words, appointing a judicial figure to examine our interaction.
"We do not believe it is reasonably practicable for us to continue with our investigation," the statement added.
Ms Fitzgerald welcomed the fact that the police ombudsman had discontinued its own investigation into the death of Sgt Galvin.
Earlier the Garda Representative Association, which represents more than 10,000 rank and file police officers in the Republic of Ireland, said that the police ombudsman should not be involved in the investigation.

Garcia, 37, holed a birdie putt for victory after his European Ryder Cup team-mate could only manage a bogey.
Charl Schwartzel was three shots back, with England's Paul Casey and Northern Ireland's Rory McIlroy in the top 10.
Jordan Spieth, one of the pre-tournament favourites, and fellow American Rickie Fowler both capitulated on the final day to finish tied 11th on one-under.
Garcia finally won one of golf's four majors - the Masters, the Open Championship, the US Open and the US PGA - after 22 previous top-10 finishes.
He became the third Spaniard to win the Masters - after Seve Ballesteros and Jose Maria Olazabal - on what would have been the 60th birthday of Ballesteros, who died in 2011.
"To join Seve and Jose - my two idols - is something amazing," said Garcia.
Shot one: Rose teed off first, pushing his drive right into the trees, only for his ball to bounce back towards play and reappear in the pine needles.
Garcia thumped his drive almost 300 yards down the fairway.
Shot two: Rose could only punch his way out of trouble onto the fairway, while Garcia to land his approach on the green.
Shot three: The Englishman responded by landing his ball about 10 foot to the right of the hole - on a similar line to his putt in regulation play about 15 minutes earlier.
After Rose pushed it left, Garcia had two shots for victory - making no mistake with his first attempt and his ball rounded the lip before dropping in.

The death watch beetles are eating away at 900-year-old Hay Castle, and work to tackle the problem is beginning as part of a planned restoration of the site.
Last week conservationists discovered there was current activity by the beetles in the castle's timbers.
The castle was built in the late 12th Century by the powerful Norman Lord William de Braose.
It was formerly owned by Richard Booth, the man credited with transforming the fortunes of the town of Hay by making it a worldwide name for second-hand books, but in 2011 it was taken over the Hay Castle trust.
Managing director Nancy Lavin Albert told BBC Wales: "Any ancient timber conservationist would not be totally shocked to find evidence of death watch beetles in a structure of this age.
"We knew there was evidence of death watch beetles [in 2011] because we could see the very distinctive flight holes of the death watch beetle which are quite large."
After monitoring the timbers, they discovered current activity by the beetles, but are not sure yet of the extent of the problem.
She added: "It's very hard to treat chemically. The main thing we can do .... is to keep the timbers dry."
The trust has received £0.5m in development funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund and are applying for £5m in total to transform the castle, conserving its medieval and Jacobean buildings and creating a new centre for arts and culture. | Spain's Sergio Garcia ended his long wait for a first major title with a thrilling play-off win over England's Justin Rose at the Masters.

Can you summarize this content? | Wasps, who will start playing games at the Ricoh Arena from December, say they understand it is a sensitive time and have attempted to address supporters' concerns on their website.
Alexander Hayton has supported Wasps since 1998, when he was 10 years old.
"It feels very much that as a fanbase we've been abused," he told BBC Sport.
"There's a loyalty the fans have shown the club the last few seasons. As far as I'm concerned loyalty swings both ways.
"I will never support another club. Once a Wasp, always a Wasp. But my time of regularly attending home games is over unfortunately."
The Premiership club have traditionally been located in the north west London area during its 147-year history, predominantly in Sudbury, and have spent the past 12 years paying rent to play at Wycombe Wanderers' Adams Park ground.
Owner Derek Richardson saved Wasps from going into administration two years ago, but the club have continued to lose £3m a year.
Wasps completed a deal to buy a 50% share in the Ricoh Arena on Tuesday and say the move "gives the club the best opportunity to thrive as a business, which will support further investment in the squad".
"It's sad to leave London but there was no other choice. You can't sustain a business on gates of 5,000," said Wasps captain James Haskell.
Hayton has amassed more than 2,000 signatures on his e-petition opposing the move.
"It's sad the club has shown us no loyalty whatsoever," he said.
"One of the great things about Adams Park is the number of kids you get there. If they're playing rugby with their school in the morning, can they get up to Coventry in time for a game?
"I think Wasps as we know it are dead. You can't look at a club that has been in a location for 150 years and say the location has nothing to do with its identity.
"Wasps have assumed a model of seeing sports clubs as franchises rather than part of the local community. That's broken what made Wasps a great club."
Murray, 28, previously suggested that playing the whole competition would be tough in a congested summer that includes the Olympics.
But before this weekend's first-round tie against Japan he said he would play in a quarter-final that falls between Wimbledon and the Rio Games.
"That's the plan, but it's hypothetical just now," said the world number two.
If Britain can get past Japan, who include world number six Kei Nishikori, they will face either Kazakhstan or world number one Novak Djokovic's Serbia.
That tie would come a week after the Wimbledon final and a week before the Masters tournament in Toronto, which in turn ends six days before the Olympic competition gets under way in Rio.
Immediately after that comes the Masters event in Cincinnati, which is the final major tournament before the US Open in New York.
"Providing everything goes well, I would play in the Davis Cup, then have a little break and play Toronto and the Olympics, and potentially not play in Cincinnati," Murray told BBC Sport.
"I've always enjoyed representing my country. Statistically I've played by far my best tennis when I've played for Great Britain."

Meanwhile, GB captain Leon Smith said a back injury sustained by Kyle Edmund, who is likely to join Murray in playing the singles rubbers against Japan, will be assessed on Thursday.
"We stopped the practice straight away because he has actually played a lot of tennis," said Smith. "The guys have had a look at it, but you have to wait and see how it calms down.
"We will probably give it a run-out tomorrow before we make any final decisions."
If Edmund is deemed unfit to start the tie on Friday, his place is likely to go to Dan Evans, who would be playing in front of a home crowd in Birmingham.
Elsewhere, captain Lleyton Hewitt could come out of retirement to play for Australia in their tie against the United States.

Summarize the content of the document below. | The Sewol sank off Jindo island on 16 April 2014, killing 304 people, almost all of them children.
The bodies of nine people have never been recovered and relatives have long campaigned for them to be found.
The ship was raised in March after almost three years on the sea floor and towed to port.
Workers are searching the silt and debris inside the wreck to search for human remains, while divers are looking on the seabed where the ferry had been lying.
The 34-centimetre bone was found at the site of the sinking.
"The result of a DNA test on a bone piece identified it as Danwon high school teacher Ko Chang-seok," the maritime ministry said in a statement on Wednesday.
The sinking of the Sewol shocked the nation.
Most of those on board were teenagers from the same high school. Many obeyed erroneous crew instructions to remain in their cabins as the ship sank.
The disaster was blamed on a combination of illegal redesigns, cargo overloading, the inexperience of the crew member steering the vessel, and lax government regulations.
The ship's captain was later convicted of murder.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approved Boeing's plan, which it said requires it to "conduct extensive testing and analysis".
But the FAA gave no indication of when the planes might be allowed to carry passengers again.
All 50 Dreamliners in operation were grounded after the batteries emitted smoke on several separate occasions.
The plane is the first plane in the world to use the lithium-ion batteries, which are lighter, hold more power and recharge more quickly.
The FAA has also approved limited test flights for two aircraft to test the changes in the batteries.
"This comprehensive series of tests will show us whether the proposed battery improvements will work as designed," said US Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood. "We won't allow the plane to return to service unless we're satisfied that the new design ensures the safety of the aircraft and its passengers."
Boeing said its plan included three "layers" of improvements:
Boeing chief executive Jim McNerney said in a statement: "Our top priority is the integrity of our products and the safety of the passengers and crews who fly on them.
"Our team has been working around the clock to understand the issues and develop a solution based on extensive analysis and testing following the events that occurred in January."
Mr McNerney described the FAA's approval as "a critical and welcome milestone toward getting the fleet flying again and continuing to deliver on the promise of the 787".
The 787 is said to be one of the most fuel-efficient in the industry, and Boeing delivered 46 Dreamliners to customers in 2012.
But a series of events in January brought its safety into question.
Problems occurred on several planes owned by Japanese airlines. One plane had a cracked cockpit window, another had a fuel leak and a third plane made an emergency landing after a smoke alert went off.
On 7 January, a fire started in a lithium-ion battery pack of a Japan Airlines 787 in Boston, prompting the US regulator to step in and ground the 787s.

Please summarize the passage below. | NHS Lanarkshire took the decision despite the results of a consultation which showed a majority of patients questioned backed the service.
More than 200 people each year in Lanarkshire are referred to the Centre for Integrative Care, formerly Glasgow Homoeopathic Hospital.
NHS Lothian and NHS Highland previously voted to stop patient referrals.
Homeopathy involves treating people with highly diluted substances with the aim of triggering the body's own healing mechanisms.
Medical scientists have said many trials have shown it is no better than a placebo.
In a report that went before NHS Lanarkshire, officials set out the findings of a survey of 153 patients, who attended clinics in the health board area.
On a 70% response rate, 88% said that, overall, the treatment made them feel better than before.
The health board voted, however, to cease new referrals from 31 March 2015 "on the basis of the lack of clinical effectiveness evidence for homoeopathy".
NHS Lanarkshire said patients currently being treated at the homeopathic hospital would continue until their course was completed. | A third health board in Scotland has voted to stop sending patients to the country's only homeopathic hospital. |
Write a brief summary of the provided content. | The site was captured by Islamist-led militias after days of fighting in the eastern city, officials said.
Meanwhile, Italy has offered to help extinguish a huge blaze that has engulfed the biggest fuel depot in the Libyan capital, Tripoli.
Libya has been gripped by instability since the 2011 uprising, with swathes of the country controlled by militias.
"We have withdrawn from the [Benghazi] army base after heavy shelling," Special Forces officer Fadel al-Hassi told reporters on Tuesday.
The fighters also confirmed in a statement that they had taken control of the base.
On Monday, officials said that at least 38 people had been killed in clashes between troops loyal to the Libyan government and Islamist fighters in Benghazi.
At least 97 people have also been killed in fighting between rival militias battling for control of Tripoli's main airport in the past week.
The government has blamed clashes between the armed groups for starting the fire at the Tripoli fuel depot, and preventing firefighters from putting out the blaze.
The depot is about 10km (six miles) from Tripoli on the road to the international airport.
The government has been unable to disarm the numerous armed groups controlling large parts of the country, which are behind Libya's worst violence since the 2011 uprising that toppled Col Muammar Gaddafi.
It has led some Western governments to urge their nationals to leave and withdraw foreign staff from their embassies in Tripoli.

Summarize the following piece. | The change will affect anyone receiving a digital terrestrial signal from the main transmitter at Selkirk.
It will not have an impact on satellite television viewers and those on local relay transmitters.
The switch - on 1 March - is the start of a major project being carried out across the UK from now until 2020.
Some Freeview channels are moving to new airwaves to allow for the future development of new mobile broadband services.
Transmitters across the UK are being updated region by region with the Borders site, which is the first to undergo the change.
Changes at the Selkirk transmitter - which serves about 18,000 homes - will take place at the start of next month.
After that, any viewers receiving their TV signal from Selkirk who find they are missing BBC channels should retune to get them back.
High-definition (HD) BBC channels are not affected by the move.
Freeview said it would be running an information campaign to prepare people for the change, including advertising and on-screen messages.
It said retuning should be straightforward and added that some TV equipment would retune automatically.
Some older aerials may need to be replaced to continue receiving the channels.

The body of Bernadette Fox, 57, of Brookhill Road, Bootle, was found on Friday while her daughter Sarah Fox, 27, was found on Thursday.
Peter Fox, 26, was arrested by British Transport Police at Euston Station in London at 07.50 BST.
Merseyside Police said he is being brought back to Merseyside for questioning.
The transaction includes production, development and exploration sites off Denmark, Norway and west of Shetland.
Ineos said the move would make it the biggest private group operating in the North Sea.
The company has been looking recently to expand its upstream arm.
Last month it struck a $250m (£192m) deal with BP to buy the Forties pipeline system, which transports nearly 40% of the UK North Sea's oil and gas production.
In the latest move, Ineos - which is controlled by British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe - will pay Dong just over $1bn, plus up to $250m in contingent payments.
About 440 staff will transfer from Dong on completion of the deal, which is expected in the third quarter.
Dong's oil and gas assets include stakes in Ormen Lange, the second largest gas field in Norwegian waters, and Laggan-Tormore, a new gas field west of Shetland which came on-stream early last year.
Dong produced 100,000 barrels of oil and gas per day in 2016, down from 115,000 in 2015.
It is also estimated to have as much as 570 million barrels of commercial and potential oil and gas reserves across the Danish, Norwegian and UK continental shelves.
Mr Ratcliffe said the business was a "natural fit" for the group, which owns a major refinery in Grangemouth.
He added: "This business is very important to us at this stage of our growth plans and we are delighted with the expertise that comes with it.
"We have been successful in our petrochemical businesses, focusing on operating our assets safely, efficiently and reliably and we intend to do the same with our oil and gas assets.
"We are keen on further growth and already see lots of opportunity within this impressive portfolio when it transfers to Ineos." | Thousands of viewers in the Borders will have to retune their televisions as moves begin to develop new mobile broadband services.

Can you summarize the following content in brief? | Brian Howard, 36, has been charged with one count of destruction of aircraft or aircraft facilities in connection with the fire in the building's basement.
Mr Howard was found with burns and self-inflicted wounds. Investigators say he used petrol to light the blaze.
By Friday afternoon flights in and out of the airports were slowly resuming.
More than 850 flights were cancelled in Chicago alone and many already in the air were redirected.
In a statement, the FBI said Mr Howard was charged on Friday but remained in hospital recovering from his injuries. No court date has been scheduled.
"We believe he set the fire and he used some kind of accelerant," Aurora Police Chief Greg Thomas said in a news conference on Friday.
The building was damaged by the fire and the water used to extinguish the blaze.
Officials said they did not yet have a possible motive for the act but said Mr Howard was a contractor for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and was authorised to be in the building. He had no ties to terrorism.
The fire broke out just before 06:00 local time (11:00 GMT) on Friday morning in the Aurora, Illinois, air traffic control building, 40 miles west (64km) of Chicago.
Air traffic control officials said the radio frequencies with which they worked went dead and the control system was immediately shifted to a back-up system, the Chicago Tribune reported.
Workers used the back-up system until they were forced to evacuate.
"The [radio] frequency failed," a unnamed controller told the newspaper. "Depending on how bad the fire was, it could be a real mess getting things back to normal."
One man was treated for smoke inhalation at the scene but no-one else was injured.
FAA spokeswoman Elizabeth Cory said management of the region's airspace was transferred to another facility as the Aurora centre was evacuated.
By Friday afternoon, flights already on their way to Chicago were allowed to continue but landed at a slower pace.
Flights were taking off at a slower rate as well and air safety officials said they did not know when full service would be restored. | A fire in an air traffic control facility that grounded all flights in and out of Chicago's two major airports was set by an employee, officials say. |
Write a concise summary of the provided excerpt. | When the daughters of the late Mr Purushothaman turned up to collect his body, they were given the remains of another man - AP Kanthy.
But the Ernakulam Medical Centre insisted it was the right person.
It later emerged that their father's body had already been released to Mr Kanthy's family and cremated.
Both men had died within the same 24-hour period.
The women had been caused "mental agony" over not being able to cremate their father, a consumer court said.
It dismissed the hospital's claim that the other family was to blame. Mr Kanthy's body was released to his family, who held a second cremation ceremony, this time with the right body.
The incident occurred in early January 2010. Mr Purushothaman died in late December and his daughters had asked the hospital to hold their father's body for two days as they were out of town.
The women had asked for damages of 10 million rupees but the judge said a sum of 2.5m rupees was "reasonable".
The truce will come into force from midnight on Sunday, according to the official Saudi news agency.
However, the coalition said it reserved the right to respond to "military activity or movement" by Houthi rebels during the ceasefire.
The announcement followed air strikes in Taiz province, which reportedly killed 120 people, including civilians.
Missiles fired by coalition forces hit a residential area in the Red Sea town of Mokha on Friday, flattening buildings, the Associated Press reports.
Children and elderly people, were among the dead.
"It just shows what is the trend now of the airstrikes from the coalition," said Hassan Boucenine from the medical charity Doctors Without Borders.
"Now, it's a house, it's a market, it's anything," he added.
A resident of Taiz, Abulkader Al Guneid, told the BBC that there were shortages of most basic necessities, including diesel and vegetables.
"We have power cut. We have internet cut. We have everything cut," he added.
Aid agencies say a blockade on Yemen has worsened the humanitarian crisis which is gripping the country.
More than 80% of Yemen's 25 million people now need some form of aid.
The Saudi-led coalition has been bombing Houthi militia and army forces loyal to former president Ali Abdullah Saleh since 26 March.
It aims to defeat the rebels, who now control most of the country, and restore the government of exiled President Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi.
Saudi Arabia says the rebels are hiding troops and weapons in civilian areas to prevent them being targeted by air strikes.
But the UN has warned the coalition that indiscriminate bombing of populated areas is against international law.
The unexpected ceasefire was announced after President Hadi wrote to Saudi's King Salman asking for a break, to allow humanitarian supplies to be delivered.
A week-long truce brokered by the United Nations failed earlier this month.
At least 1,693 civilians have been killed in fighting in Yemen, with almost 4,000 people wounded. The UN said the majority of casualties were caused by air strikes.
Houthis - The Zaidi Shia Muslim rebels from the north overran Sanaa last year and then expanded their control. They want to replace Mr Hadi, whose government they say is corrupt. The US alleges Iran is providing military assistance to the rebels.
Ali Abdullah Saleh - Military units loyal to the former president - forced to hand over power in 2011 after mass protests - are fighting alongside the Houthis.
Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi - The president fled abroad in March as the rebels advanced on Aden, where he had taken refuge in February. Loyal soldiers, Sunni Muslim tribesmen and Southern separatists have formed militia to fight the rebels.
Saudi-led coalition - A US-backed coalition of nine, mostly Sunni Arab states says it is seeking to "defend the legitimate government" of Mr Hadi.
Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula - AQAP opposes both the Houthis and President Hadi. A rival affiliate of Islamic State has also recently emerged.

Give a concise summary of the passage below. | In an experiment using photographs of male human faces, scientists from the University of Sussex showed that domestic horses "responded negatively" to angry expressions.
The scientists say domestication may have enabled horses to adapt to and interpret human behaviour.
The findings are published in the journal Biology Letters.
The team carried out their tests at riding stables - presenting large photographs to a total of 28 horses.
"One person presents the photo while another holds the horse," explained researcher Amy Smith.
"The main result," she explained, "was that they looked [at angry faces] with their left eye."
Mammal brains are wired such that input from the left eye is processed by the right side of the brain.
"The right hemisphere is specialised for processing negative stimuli," explained Miss Smith. "It's really about the partition of energy - not using the whole brain."
The researchers also fitted the horses with heart monitors, which revealed that angry faces caused their heart rates to rise significantly.
Similar results have been reported recently in domestic dogs, raising questions about how living with humans might have influenced animals' abilities.
While horses might have an innate ability to recognise emotions in each other, their domestication by humans could have caused them to adapt that ability to humans.
"It also shows this extra ability of horses," said Miss Smith. "[It shows that] our behaviour around them has an impact."

Chef Babu, (Shabbir Satter) of the Indian Tree in the town, said he was called over "very discreetly" by the man, who wanted to remain anonymous.
The customer was one of a group of five who dined at the restaurant last Tuesday, the Portadown Times reports.
He said he wanted to add the huge service fee in recognition of the "excellent food".
Luna Ekush, who owns the restaurant, said the tip was "incredibly generous".
"It is a very simple thing to express gratitude, but this has had such a big impact. We are still in shock," she said.
"All the staff working that night will split the money as the customer said it was for everyone.
"I don't think anyone at the restaurant has ever received such a massive tip, I definitely have not.

But Turner said: "Football League rules state that clubs failing to meet HMRC payments, or football creditor debts on time are automatically temporarily embargoed until such time as these payments are settled.
"We are currently in the process of scheduling due payments to ensure that the club can re-engage with out-of-contract players and enhance the squad when the new manager is appointed."

Summarize the content of the document below. | Manager Deila was talking ahead of his game on Hamilton's artificial surface.
Counterpart Warburton had previously called for a ban on such pitches in Scotland's top flight.
"If Ronny did say that - if he did say that - I think that is disrespectful because you are entitled to your opinion," said the Rangers boss.
"The one line from that interview that jumps out for me was 'number one is a good grass pitch, number two is a good artificial pitch'.
"If you are happy to accept second best then go for the artificial pitch.
"If you want to set the highest standards then you go for the best quality grass pitch.
"That, for me, was the one sentence that summed it up."
Warburton had entered the debate after Martyn Waghorn picked up an injury on Kilmarnock's artificial surface that could sideline Rangers' top scorer for the rest of the season.
While Deila told newspapers on Wednesday that he prefers a good quality grass pitch to an artificial one, he said he had nothing against artificial pitches as long as they were good quality.
However, he repeated the criticism he made of New Douglas Park after his side won 2-1 there in October, saying it was "slippy".
However, Accies player-manager Martin Canning refutes the notion that players are more susceptible to injury when they are playing on artificial surfaces rather than grass.
"We train on it every day and I've never noticed that it's slippy," Canning said.
"I watched the game that Celtic played at Dundee United and Gavin Gunning slipped when Leigh Griffiths ran through and scored, so I don't think the pitch is any more slippy than a wet grass pitch. You just deal with the conditions."
Canning believes that Hamilton's surface it is better than many grass pitches in the Scottish Premiership.
"Our pitch in particular, we enjoy playing on," he said. "When you go up to places like Ross County, St Johnstone or Motherwell at times - and this is not having a go at the ground staff, it's just the conditions and weather we get in the country - to keep grass pitches in a good condition for a long time is difficult.
"I'm a big believer in artificial pitches and I'm 34, I've been playing on it for years, I train on it every day and I'm fine, so I don't think it does any damage to your body.
"We've got the statistics that prove it - that you're as likely to get injured on grass as you are on that.
"I don't think there's any higher risk of injury and it makes it a good game of football. You can get the ball down and play."

But Denton and Reddish Labour MP Andrew Gwynne and Tory MP for Bolton West Chris Green have vowed to fight plans to use some green belt land in parts of the scheme.
A draft report on the scheme said the use of some green belt was "essential".
The plans, known as the Greater Manchester Spatial Framework, are to be discussed by the combined authority's 10 council leaders on Friday before the launch of consultation.
Mr Gwynne agreed there was a need for housing growth but is sceptical about the figures.
"It appears to be an open book for developers to pick and choose the most favourable sites to develop and those are very often in the green belt," he said.
"What really worries me is this green belt grabbing exercise will do nothing to spearhead the regeneration of urban parts of Greater Manchester that actually need the level of investment to ensure those communities continue to thrive."
Mr Green said he was opposing plans for 6,000 new homes near the M61.
He argued developers should make better use of existing brownfield sites and build more apartment blocks in town centres.
"We have to look at building up and having a higher population density... [which] makes it easier to walk to the shops and cycling around... and makes public transport far more viable."
Alex Ganotis leader of Stockport Council, which is part of combined authority, said it will do all it can to ensure the developments were done "in the right areas".

Please summarize the given passage. | Zetchi was elected unopposed on Monday after incumbent, Mohamed Raouraoua, refused to stand for a third consecutive term.
Algeria failed to get out of their group at the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations in Gabon.
"There are priorities, namely the appointment of a coach," Zetchi said.
He has set a deadline of two weeks to find a new coach to replace Belgian George Leekens, who resigned in January after the Nations Cup failure.
"I cannot mention names, but we do have CVs that we will study with the members of the federal bureau," he continued.
"We will opt for the candidate who corresponds to our brand of football - we all agree that Algerian football is centred on short passes and dribbling."
Zetchi, who is also the president of second division champions Paradou Athletic, wants to develop the game in Algeria as well.
Two of his main aims are to reform the committee that deals with financial fair play (DNCG) and set up four regional academies across the country.
"Our most important project is the rehabilitation of Algerian football and that means reforming amateur football," he continued.
"The role of the DNCG is not to punish, it is to help clubs balance their budget.
"If, from next season, we prohibit clubs from operating in deficit or debt, that will be a significant step towards financial fair play."
His predecessor Raouraoua had asked all local clubs to invest in academies, Zetchi has admitted that such a goal may be unrealistic.
"The outgoing president has left financial means for the federation and this must be spent to football development, which means the building of academies," Zetchi explained.
"We will invite clubs to invest alongside us until clubs can build their own academies and be autonomous."
Zetchi's club will play in the Algerian top-flight next season after two successive promotions with a team made-up of young players while the youth sides have also enjoyed success at a national level.
He set up Paradou in 1994 after making his money in ceramics and then founded Algeria's first academy in 2007.
The project is run by Jean-Marc Guillou Academies, who previously worked with Asec Mimosas in Ivory Coast, which produced the likes of the Toure brothers and Salomon Kalou.
Zetchi's appointment brings to an end 12 years in charge for Raouraoua, during which time he was was credited with reviving Algerian football in the international arena.
During his tenure, Algeria qualified for two World Cup finals and five Africa Cup of Nations tournaments.
The former Caf Executive Committee member will also be remembered for petitioning Fifa in 2009 to change its statutes to allow players switch international allegiance even after the age of 21.
Despite these successes critics have accused Raouraoua of neglecting local football at the expense of the national team.

"Perhaps we are not capturing the public's imagination in the same way, but it is all changing for the better," she added.

The Welsh team issued a statement confirming that Michu had "completed a medical earlier today and will now link up with Rafa Benitez's side".
The Spain forward, 28, did not travel to the USA for Swansea's pre-season tour because of the talks with Napoli.
The president of the Italian side, Aurelio de Laurentiis, tweeted a welcome message: "Benvenuto a Michu."
It was understood that the Serie A club wanted Michu on loan, while the Swans were thought to be keen on a permanent deal.
Michu will play in Italy for at least a season, while Napoli may exercise their right to buy during the loan spell.
The Spaniard joined Swansea from Rayo Vallecano for £2.2m during the summer of 2012 and was the club's top scorer with 22 goals in his first full season.
His performances saw him linked with big-money moves, but he extended his stay in south Wales by signing a four-year deal in January 2013.
The former Oviedo and Celta de Vigo player's second season with the Swans was marred by knee and ankle problems and he scored only two goals in 15 starts in the Premier League.
Before the club left for the States, Swansea manager Garry Monk said he planned to hold talks with Michu and wanted the striker to stay.
But former Wales and Swansea winger Leighton James believes the time is right for his former club to sell Michu, even though he has two years remaining of his current contract.
"If he's going to go, then get it sorted," James had previously told BBC Radio Wales Sport.
"Even before he was injured last season he was giving out the impression that he didn't want to be here.
"His price has dropped drastically through his poor form last season and his long-term injury.
"So you can't expect to command the same sort of fee that you could have done 12 months ago after he had such a good season.
"But it doesn't do the club, the players or the manager any good to have this hanging over their heads during pre-season." | Female comics are enjoying a surge in popularity, with audiences flocking to see live acts including Miranda Hart and Sarah Millican.

Write a short summary of the following excerpt. | Hundreds of people were shopping in the market in Shejaiya, a spokesman for the Gaza health ministry said.
The attack came during a four-hour truce called by the Israeli military. Hamas, which controls Gaza, had rejected the truce as meaningless.
Meanwhile, Israel said three more of its soldiers had been killed in Gaza.
Palestinian doctors also said that another Israeli air strike after the partial humanitarian ceasefire was announced had killed seven people in Khan Younis.
Earlier, the UN said Israel had attacked a UN-run school housing refugees in Gaza, despite warnings that civilians were there. Fifteen people were killed and dozens hurt.
The White House condemned the attack and said it was "extremely concerned" that Palestinians were not safe at shelters despite being told to evacuate their homes by Israel's army.
More than 1,300 Palestinians and 58 Israelis have now died in the conflict. Most of the Palestinian deaths have been of civilians.
Fifty-six Israeli soldiers have been killed along with two civilians. A Thai worker in Israel has also died.
The Israeli military said that the three soldiers killed on Wednesday died in a booby-trapped building.
Correspondents say many people in Gaza were unaware the partial ceasefire had been called.
Witnesses at the scene of the market strike in Shejaiya spoke of smoke billowing over the site, with ambulances racing victims to hospital.
A journalist who worked for a local news agency was reported to have been killed.
One witness, Salim Qadoum, told Associated Press: "The area now is like a bloodbath, everyone is wounded or killed. People lost their limbs and were screaming for help. It's a massacre."
The Palestinian al-Aqsa satellite TV channel quoted Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhum as saying that the market attack required "an earth-shattering response".
The Israeli military had said the ceasefire would last between 15:00 (12:00 GMT) and 19:00.
However, it had warned that the truce would only apply to areas where Israeli soldiers were not currently operating, and it told residents not to return to areas they had previously been asked to evacuate.
Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri had rejected the truce as meaningless.
"The lull which Israel announced is media exploitation and has no value because it excludes the volatile areas along the border, and we won't be able to get the wounded out from those areas," he said in a statement.
Sirens continued to sound in southern Israel after the ceasefire, to warn of militant rocket attacks.
Israel said more than 50 rockets were fired from Gaza on Wednesday.
The UN had earlier expressed outrage at the attack on the school in the Jabaliya refugee camp.
Spokesman Chris Gunness told the BBC that Israel had been told 17 times that the school was housing the displaced, saying the attack caused "universal shame".
Secretary General Ban Ki-moon later said the attack was "reprehensible, unjustifiable, and demands accountability and justice".
The Israeli military said in a statement that its "initial inquiry suggests militants fired mortars... from the vicinity of the school in Jabaliya".
It said soldiers had "responded by firing towards the origin of fire".
Israel launched its offensive in Gaza after a surge in rocket fire from the territory.
It says one of its main objectives is to destroy tunnels used by militants to infiltrate Israel.
Army spokesman Sami Turgeman said on Wednesday that this mission "will be completed within a number of days".
Hamas says it will not stop fighting until a blockade, maintained by both Israel and Egypt, is lifted.
The current conflict, now in its 23rd day, is the longest between Israel and militants from Gaza.
A 2012 offensive lasted for eight days, and the 2008 conflict went on for 22 days. | At least 17 people have been killed and 160 wounded in an Israeli strike that hit a fruit and vegetable market near Gaza City, Palestinian officials say. |
Can you summarize the given article? | Olympics fan Chen Guan Ming, 58, from Xuzhou, is cycling his rickshaw to Rio, in time for the 2016 games.
He was not breaking the law by taking it on the A-road but was advised by police to find another route.
A spokesman said: "We offered him a map, but he didn't seem to want it."
This is the second time Mr Chen has decided to "promote the Olympic spirit" - as the banner on his rickshaw states.
He travelled from China to London by rickshaw in time for the 2012 Olympics, before returning to his home country.
However, he then decided to do it all again, and this time hopes to make it to Rio de Janeiro.
Mr Chen was able to begin his latest Olympics quest from London, thanks to a courtesy flight from a British airline company.
He is funding the rest of the trip himself, doing odd jobs and offering rides in the rickshaw, in which he sleeps at night.
Mr Chen left Cambridge on Wednesday, choosing to pedal along the A14 70mph (110km/h) dual carriageway.
A Cambridgeshire Police spokesman said: "We were called at 13:29 BST to reports of a man riding a rickshaw along the A14, causing traffic problems.
"He was stopped and given words of advice not to travel on the A14, but he was committing no offences and went on his way."
The spokesman said he was not sure where Mr Chen was planning to go next, but added: "I understand he's eventually heading to Liverpool."
He was not able to say whether Mr Chen understood the police advice about road safety.
Mr Chen is thought to know only four words of English. | A Chinese farmer travelling around the world on a bicycle rickshaw to "promote the Olympic spirit", was stopped by police after pedalling down the A14, causing traffic jams in Cambridgeshire. |
Please summarize the passage below. | Jermaine McCalla, of Suremove Bristol, took a £375 holding fee from an undercover actor posing as someone looking for a flat.
He was filmed saying it covered taking the property off the market, checking references and other services.
A day later the actor decided not to go ahead as part of the BBC investigation, but was refused his money back.
Mr McCalla told him all agency fees and holding deposits were non-refundable, despite not carrying out most of the work he said it was for.
A spokesperson for The Property Redress Scheme said he had broken the code of practice in doing this and should give most of the deposit back.
Ombudsman Sean Hooker told BBC Inside Out West: "The agent should have produced a holding deposit agreement which sets out what the holding deposit would be used for and the circumstances when this would or wouldn't be refunded.
"This document should have been explained to the prospective tenant and they should then be asked to sign it if they are in agreement."
He added that the agent would be obliged to produce evidence showing what work was completed before a refund was requested.
Inside Out West heard from a tenant who said Mr McCalla failed to mandatorily register a deposit with the government's deposit protection scheme.
The programme also found an example of money that Mr McCalla had charged for unexplained services.
Mike Sergison and Eadie McCarthy were left with no alternative but to pay an extra £940 to Mr McCalla on the day they were due to move into a property he had secured for them.
The couple said they had already paid him holding and security deposits and one month's rent in advance, when Mr McCalla asked for the further amount to cover "agency fees".
They said they reluctantly paid the money to avoid being made homeless.
Ms McCarthy said: "We still haven't received a receipt of what this money was for or where it has gone."
Proceedings to wind up Suremove Bristol were lodged in December.
Mr McCalla has not responded to correspondence sent to him by the BBC regarding the matter.
Inside Out is broadcast on BBC One West at 19:30 GMT on Monday 7 March.
The firm recently found that managers of a factory in Syria had paid local armed groups in order to stay open.
Mr Olsen said he had not been involved in any wrongdoing, and was standing down to bring "serenity" to the Swiss-French company.
Lafarge is the world's biggest supplier of concrete, cement and aggregates.
In his statement, Mr Olsen said his decision was "driven by my conviction that it will contribute to addressing strong tensions that have recently arisen around the Syria case".
"While I was absolutely not involved in, nor even aware of, any wrongdoing I believe my departure will contribute to bringing back serenity to a company that has been exposed for months on this case," he added.
In March, the group explained that its own internal investigation had discovered that the company's managers at its Jalabiya plant in northern Syria had, until 2014, paid protection money to various local militias as the political and military situation deteriorated during the country's civil war.
In its latest update, the company confirmed that the payments had indeed been made but agreed that Mr Olsen was not to blame.
"The board has concluded that Eric Olsen was not responsible for, nor thought to be aware of, any wrongdoings that have been identified as part of its review," it said.
The Syrian factory started up in 2010, after an investment of $680m over three years, and stopped operating in September 2014.
LafargeHolcim was formed in 2015 by the merger of the French Lafarge company and its Swiss rival Holcim and now has its headquarters in Switzerland.
Mr Olsen was promoted to chief executive at the time and was today praised by the company for his "invaluable" contribution in overseeing the merger.
"Eric Olsen is a leader who brought together two companies to create one genuinely global champion," said Beat Hess, the chairman of the group.
"We are very grateful to him for his efforts."
The company is now looking for a new chief executive and Mr Hess will act as interim chief executive for the time being. | A rogue letting agent has refused to return a deposit following a series of complaints about his conduct.

In what is one of Brazil's biggest environmental disasters, about 62 million cubic metres of mud spilled from the dam and flooded a vast area.
At least 17 people were killed. Two are still missing.
The cause of the burst is still unclear but the Brazilian government has filed a lawsuit against Samarco, the joint venture between mining giants BHP Billiton and Vale, which owned the dam.
The area was closed off for four weeks while rescue workers and investigators searched the mud.
A month after the disaster, Brazilian journalist Nina Neves and photographer Ismael dos Anjos travelled to Bento Rodrigues and nearby Paracatu de Baixo to examine the damage caused.
It was afternoon when Bento Rodrigues was swallowed by a river of mud.
The residents, who had had no warning of the impending disaster, could do little more than run for their lives.
The force of the mud took everything in its path, bending metal and flattening homes.
The site has been abandoned since the mud flow hit.
Children's toys and people's belongings are scattered throughout the village, a stark reminder of the lively village Bento Rodrigues once was.
Some areas of Bento Rodrigues look like twister has torn through it, with metal rods and pieces of wood littering the ground.
The force of the mud flow carried washing machines far from the homes where they once stood.
But some smaller items, such as these religious statuettes, survived the impact.
Behind the ruins of Bento Rodrigues's school, the swings are suspended in mud, giving a strange illusion of motion in the deserted village.
Paracatu de Baixo was the second village in the path of the mud flow.
Residents here were luckier than those of Bento Rodrigues as they received some warning of the disaster and could take refuge.
No-one died here, but a tree left standing bears the marks of the mud and shows the height it reached.
Some residents have been back to look for remains of their belongings in the rubble, but most found very little that was salvageable.
The moment the thieves levered the car park machine out of its hard-standing with rope attached to their 4x4 vehicle was caught on CCTV cameras in Sudbury.
The machine was pulled out of the train station car park at about 04:30 GMT on Thursday.
Babergh District Council said the theft was "simply not worth it".
Frank Lawrenson, portfolio holder for environment at the council, which owns the site, called it a "mindless, deliberate, act of vandalism".
"Babergh's machines do not have huge amounts of money kept in them overnight - a lot of people pay electronically or have a season ticket, and we empty the machines regularly," he said.
"It simply is not worth it for the thieves to take part in this type of activity."
Mr Lawrenson added there were no plans at present to replace the stolen machine, which is worth £4,000, as there were two others.
Cedric joined Southampton for £4.7m last summer and made 27 appearances in the 2015-16 season, scoring twice.
The 24-year-old played four times at Euro 2016 as part of the Portugal team which won the tournament.
"I'm really happy," the right-back said. "The club has given me more confidence and they show me that they also trust in my football."
Saints manager Claude Puel added: "He is an international player, he won Euro 2016 with Portugal and it's important for the club to keep players of his calibre.
"I'm happy for him and for us to keep Cédric with this team. He is a good player, important, a technical player and I am sure he will do many good things this season."
Southampton have also signed former Arsenal, Aston Villa and Manchester City goalkeeper Stuart Taylor, 35, on a one-year deal.

Write a brief summary of the provided content. | The Tynecastle outfit are looking at bringing the 22-year-old in on a one-year loan deal.
Watt is best known for scoring the winning goal in Celtic's Champions League win over Barcelona in 2012.
He had spells at Belgian clubs Lierse and Standard Liege before signing for Charlton, but was subsequently on loan at Cardiff and Blackburn last season.
Hearts head coach Robbie Neilson has confirmed German defender Marcel Appiah is training with the squad, ahead of the second leg of their Europa League second qualifying round tie against Maltese side Birkirkara on Thursday.
The 28-year-old, who can play at right-back or centre-back, played against Sunderland in a closed-door game at Riccarton on Saturday.
Appiah has previously played for German club Arminia Bielefeld but spent the last two years in the Netherlands with NEC Nijmegen.
"We have had a few defenders in recently," Neilson said. "We had [Northern Ireland international] Liam Donnelly in last week. We have a German in this week. It's an area we need one more in.
"We are still looking to recruit. We are still looking for a striker and we need a wide player as well. I'm really happy with the squad I have at the moment and it's just adding that little bit of quality. If that takes a little bit of time then I'm more than happy to wait."
Hearts drew 0-0 in the searing heat of Malta last week and are favourites to progress to the third qualifying round of the Europa League, where they would meet Krasnodar, who finished fourth in the Russian Premier League last season.
Neilson is banking on an early goal to settle any nerves at Tynecastle.
"That's the hope," he told BBC Scotland. "We almost did it over there when we got a goal chalked off after three minutes. I thought we played really well but just couldn't get the goal."
Birkirkara rarely ventured forward at home to Hearts, content to try and hit the visitors on the break, and Neilson expects similar tactics from the Maltese side in the return leg.
"I think we need to be patient," he explained. "We need to realise the way they play is very difficult to break down.
"With a good pitch and a good crowd behind, I think we have the quality to score goals."
Thursday's game will be Hearts' fourth European match this season and Neilson believes it is a much better way to prepare for the long campaign ahead rather than playing meaningless friendly matches.
"The key is staying in Europe and continuing to play competitive games," he added.
"The difficult thing about Europe starting so early is if you don't make it through the first round, you are then trying to scramble about for pre-season games. The longer you stay in Europe, the games get more competitive and the fitness levels go up."
Winger Jamie Walker says the players are also happier playing in Europe at this time of year.
"That's been the subject of a lot of talk in the dressing room." said Walker. "You come back early but at least you are not playing pre-season games. It's competitive football and everybody just wants to get through." | Hearts are in talks with former Celtic striker Tony Watt over a potential move from Charlton Athletic. |

Both clubs played for the first time since Barnsley assistant manager Tommy Wright and Leeds owner Massimo Cellino were named in the Daily Telegraph's investigation into alleged corruption in football.
Wright was sacked on Thursday over claims he took cash for trying to engineer certain transfers - a claim he "categorically denied".
Cellino, meanwhile, was filmed offering undercover reporters, posing as an investment firm, a way to get around FA and Fifa third-party ownership rules. Leeds said the claims were a "non story".
On the field, neither side made the goalkeepers work hard until Bartley got away from Sam Winnall and on to the end of Hernandez's corner.
Hernandez should have doubled the lead early in the second half when he shot just wide from the edge of the area after a defensive mix-up, but made amends four minutes later when he finished well after Eunan O'Kane's long ball.
Chris Wood spurned two great chances to put the game beyond doubt before Taylor's own goal set up a tense finale as Barnsley looked for a winner.
The Tykes stay 10th in the division while Leeds move up to 11th, behind their opponents on goal difference.
Leeds United manager Garry Monk:
"The way we started the second half - that first 20 minutes - was some of the best football we've played. We looked so aggressive and threatening all the time.
"We got the second goal and at that point you can sense blood. We should have got the third that would have killed the game but for one moment we switched off.
"Overall we're very pleased with the result and with the way this period of games has gone.
"It's a shame the international break has come. The last one we went in with a loss and felt it had come at the right time, but now we want the games to keep coming."
Barnsley manager Paul Heckingbottom:
"It's not been a nice week.
"We just got on with it and tried to win, but it's not been nice.
"It was never in doubt that the players would give me application, effort and keep on doing what we do. That's what's brought us success and that's what we'll keep relying on.
"But there's definitely more positives than negatives from that performance."

Can you provide an overview of this section? | Stars went down in overtime to Edinburgh Capitals on Saturday before thrashing the Caps on Sunday as they came out of a five-game winless run.
And LeFebvre couldn't have been happier at how his team bounced back with such a comprehensive victory in the second of the double-header.
"The whole team have worked so hard in these last two weeks and we've been three imports down," he said. "We've put in a good effort and I'm delighted for the guys in the end.
"We ran out of steam on Saturday and Edinburgh are a team that can surprise.
"But It's important for us to keep the momentum going. It's a good feeling to get three points from the weekend and we'll start to get some bodies back."
On Saturday, Brett Switzer and Justin Faryna fired the Stars two up with Jared Staal scoring in reply for the Caps before Vinny Scarsella added Dundee's third.
However, like last week against Fife Flyers, Edinburgh stormed back as Karel Hromas and Taylor MacDougall levelled, taking the game to overtime, where Yevgeni Fyodorov struck for the 4-3 win.
On Sunday in Dundee there was quite a turnaround as five goals from Kevin Bruijsten helped the Stars to a thumping 10-3 win over Michal Dobron's side.
Kevin Hart, Cam McGiffin and Bruijsten had Dundee three up in the first five minutes before Jacob Johnston pulled one back for Edinburgh.
Justin Faryna and another from Bruijsten put the Stars 5-1 by the end of the first period, with the Caps mounting a comeback through Jared Staal and Karel Hromas in the middle session.
But Dundee found their mojo again in the third as one from Lidhammar, Bruijsten, one from Ben Edmonds and a further two from the Dutchman completed the rout.
Fife Flyers ended another weekend without a point, starting on Saturday at Manchester Storm, going down 4-3 after penalty shots.
Taylor Dickin and Paul Phillips were on target for Storm before Brendan Brooks and two from Chase Schaber had Fife in front with three minutes to go.
But Mario Valery-Trabucco tied the game in the final minute and after overtime couldn't produce a winner, Mark Heatley and Darian Dzuirzynski came up trumps in the shootout for Manchester.
Fife welcomed Braehead Clan to Kirkcaldy on Sunday and lost for the fourth consecutive game against their Glasgow rivals, going down 4-1.
Mike Hammond opened the scoring before the Flyers levelled the game through Carlo Finucci during the second period.
Jay Rosehill restored Braehead's lead at the end of the second before Zach Sullivan struck with a rare goal to open a two-goal advantage when he was assisted by Alex Leavitt.
Leavitt then turned scorer from provider to add a fourth that sealed the game and as Ryan Finnerty's men headed into a busy Christmas schedule with an important victory.
Clan started their weekend with a 7-4 loss to Coventry Blaze, whose upturn in form saw them pick up their fourth win in their last five.
TJ Syner and Robin Bergman put the Blaze in front, but Clan hit back through Matt Beca on the powerplay before Josh Godfrey restored Coventry's two-goal lead.
Scott Pitt got Braehead back to one then Liam Stewart struck with a shorthanded goal. Although Kyle Wharton got another on the board for the home team, Blaze kicked on in the third.
Another one shorthanded from Stewart and Syner's second sealed the points. Corey Cowick pulled one back, but Barry Almeida rounded off a good night's work for the visitors.

What is the summary of the following article? | Melanie Holly released the balloon in July, to mark her son's first birthday, attaching a message asking the finder to contact her.
Within 24 hours, the balloon was spotted in a field near Bilshausen in central Germany by Laetitia Woodruff.
By chance Ms Woodruff's sister was about to travel to a wedding in Bristol and was able to return the message.
Ms Holly said when she sent up the blue star-shaped balloon, a couple of days after her son's birthday, she "never imagined it would get anywhere".
"We just thought it would be a nice thing to do for him," she said.
"We saw it float over the top of the houses and I thought it would just drop in the sea or get stuck in some trees."
The following day, however, the balloon was discovered in a field near the small village of Bilshausen.
"My sister was hiking from school and on the way she found a balloon," said Ms Woodruff.
"She picked it up and saw the message and took it home and showed it to me and it said 'Bristol' and I said: "That's where I'm flying next weekend."
Following an appeal on Facebook to "find the person" who wrote the note - which was shared more than 6,000 times - Ms Holly spotted the post and contacted Sarah-Jane.
"It's incredible really, she was coming to Bristol for a wedding so we met and she gave me the note back," she said.

Can you summarize this passage? | Patricia McCall had tiny valves inserted in her lungs to treat her emphysema.
The procedure is an alternative to radical surgery in which diseased parts of the lungs are cut away.
Ms McCall was treated at the Golden Jubilee National Hospital in Clydebank as part of a clinical trial.
The hospital is the first in Scotland to fit the valves.
The valves are made from titanium and silicone and could be suitable for up to a third of emphysema patients.
"Before, it was like someone had their arms round you and was just crushing you," said Ms McCall, "and it was like someone else had their hands over your mouth.
"Now I look and feel 100 times better. It has been a godsend."
The tiny one-way valves block the airflow to diseased parts of the lung, whilst improving the flow of air to healthy parts.
They are implanted via the mouth and throat, which means there are no scars.
Consultant Lung Surgeon Mr Alan Kirk said: "Our clinical study on these one-way valves has found that after treatment patients will breathe far more effectively, making their quality of life much better."
Since the operation last May, 58-year-old Ms McCall has been able to book her first holiday in a decade.
She said: "It has been so long since I last went on holiday and I am really looking forward to getting away, but it would not have been possible without the valves.
"I never thought I would get on an aeroplane and be able to go away ever again because of the problems with my lungs.
"I have bumped into old friends since the operation and they have all said I look fab and that it is great to see me out and about."
It is hoped the "Endobronchial Valve" will dramatically improve the quality of life for people with lung disease.
Emphysema is usually caused by smoking and is very common in Scotland.
Mr Kirk wants more doctors to refer their patients for the procedure as part of the trial.
"We really want to improve awareness of this procedure and receive more referrals from GPs and hospitals," he said.
"We are confident that long term this procedure may be an alternative to more invasive surgery for patients suited to this treatment." | One of the first patients in Scotland to receive a new lung valve has spoken of the huge improvement in her quality of life. |

Mrs Bailey told BBC Radio Oxford: "We hope we can meet a range of people and spend some time showing we respect them and get to know them.

Baltimore Circuit Judge Barry Williams said that trying the officers as a group would not be "in the interest of justice".
Freddie Gray, 25, died after sustaining a severe spinal cord injury while riding in a police van in April.
His death sparked nights of unrest and weeks of protests in the city.
Defence lawyers initially sought to have the charges dropped, but Judge Williams denied that request.
Judge Williams also rejected a motion to have the prosecutor removed from the case at a pre-trial hearing on Wednesday.
Defence lawyers argued misconduct by state prosecutor Marilyn Mosby, and wanted an independent prosecutor to handle the case.
They say Ms Mosby violated her obligation to a fair trial by announcing the charges at a public news conference as protests over Freddie Gray's death were already in motion.
Judge Williams called Mosby's public comments about the case "troubling" but said they were not likely to prejudice a jury.
Dates for the trials have not yet been set.
Gray's death, which was ruled a homicide, is one of several involving black Americans and police officers which has sparked unrest and national debate over police and race relations.
The officers pleaded not guilty to the charges, which range from false imprisonment to involuntary manslaughter.
Gray was arrested on 12 April after a police chase on foot in West Baltimore. He sustained a severe spinal injury while being transported in a police van.
Police later admitted he had not been secured by a seatbelt and his request for medical attention at the time was denied. He fell into a coma and died a week later.
His death sparked protests over police brutality, with the city of Baltimore erupting in rioting, looting and arson on the day of his funeral.
Questions over whether the trial should be moved from Baltimore will be raised at a second pre-trial hearing in September.

Can you summarize this passage? | But in our modern age, the digital moving trucks must also roar into action, as prime presidential online real estate gets a makeover, and eight years of President Obama's social media chat is confined to the national archives.
Let’s start with WhiteHouse.gov, the official website for the President, which as of noon Friday, has a brand new look - and has already provoked mild panic.
Many noted that pages about climate change were swiftly deleted. So too were pages about LGBT rights and various science policies.
But, let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Pages about everything were deleted as what was essentially Obama’s homepage was replaced with Trump’s.
That means posts about any former policy positions no longer exist on the White House website if you follow the original links.
So while the web address pointing to the White House’s position on climate change no longer works, the same can be said about Obama’s pages relating to the economy. Unpredictable as he is, no-one is suggesting Donald Trump is about to describe “money” as a hoax.
That said, on the new whitehouse.gov, a search for “military” will yield 154 results. “Climate change”? None.
Nervous internet sleuths have found one reference to climate change, a promise to lift the "harmful and unnecessary policies such as the Climate Action Plan and the Waters of the US rules".
Make of that what you will. People on Twitter certainly are.
Also wiped clean was the White House's petition website. On Friday, by 4pm in DC, only two petitions were posted on the site. The first demanded the release of the President's tax returns. The other demanded he put his businesses in a blind trust. If either petition gets 100,000 signatures, the White House has to provide a response - at least, that was the rule the previous administration set itself.
From @POTUS to @POTUS44
Speaking of which, it’s all change on Twitter too.
From today @POTUS - President of the United States - has been taken over by the Trump team. All previous tweets from Obama’s team - and Obama himself - have been deleted from that account, but archived under @POTUS44. The 44 relating of course to the fact Obama was the 44th US President.
The tweets were not, as a smattering of people blurted out, “deleted by Trump” once he had control of the account.
Twitter removed them - and that's because scrubbing the account of Obama’s tweets is a smart move for everyone involved. Had Twitter left the old tweets in place you’ll find yourself seeing people retweeting Obama’s words but with Trump’s identity attached, a recipe for misinformation disaster.
Trump’s first tweet on @POTUS posted a picture and a link to his inaugural address - the full text of which was posted on Facebook. Is Trump having a change of heart over his social network of choice?
Maybe. Facebook certainly offers the chance to speak more clearly at length, and, as the leader of the free world, it would be more useful to post to an audience of almost two billion rather than Twitter’s rather limited 300m.
We won’t know for sure until about 3am, DC time, tomorrow morning. Everyone will be surely waiting for those twilight hours to see if the President springs back into life posting his thoughts on his own personal account, @realDonaldTrump.

Can you provide a summary of this content? | Under the front page headline "Brussels twists knife on Brexit, the paper's political editor says the European Parliament's chief Brexit negotiator has openly mocked Theresa May.
Former Chancellor Mr Osborne backed Remain in the referendum.
He had pledged to be "fearless" and "independent" in his new role.
As he arrived for his first day, Mr Osborne - the Conservative MP for Tatton - said: "It's very exciting to be starting in the new job.
"It's a really important time in our country when people are going to want the straight facts, the informed analysis so they can make the really big decisions about this country's future."
He also tweeted at the end of the day, sharing a photograph of himself with an Evening Standard employee and thanking the team for "all the help today".
His appointment at the Standard in March provoked accusations he was juggling too many responsibilities, as he was still an MP and had recently taken on a £650,000-a-year position as an advisor to US investment company Blackrock.
He was sacked as chancellor last July after Mrs May became prime minister and later announced he would not be standing as an MP in the June general election.
The Advisory Committee on Business Appointments has imposed a two-year ban on Mr Osborne lobbying former ministerial colleagues on behalf of his new employers, and stopped him from discussing the issue of press regulation with the government.
The Standard's front page article by Joe Murphy refers to reports of disagreements over the Brexit negotiations at a private dinner between Mrs May and the president of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, last week.
It notes that No 10 attempted to keep out of the row, quoting the prime minister's spokesman as saying: "We approach these talks with all parties in a constructive manner and with a huge amount of goodwill."
Elsewhere, in a leading article, the Standard says it respects the democratic decision of the people who voted to leave the EU "even though it continues to believe it to be an historic mistake".
It said reports of Mrs May's dinner with Mr Juncker - said to have come via European Commission sources - show "how unrealistic were the claims made about the strength of Britain's hand".
The paper says it is committed to "optimism, freedom, diversity and enterprise" and "will argue for a Britain that doesn't retreat within itself but remains engaged in Europe and the world".
It says: "We will be the voice of London on issues from air quality to knife crime - as we are today - but we won't restrict ourselves to issues that primarily affect the capital."
The paper carries news of an exclusive poll which suggests nearly seven in 10 people do not believe the prime minister will meet her pledge to cut net immigration to below 100,000.
There is also a comment piece by Thomas Hetherwick, the designer of the Thames Garden Bridge, which last week lost the support of the mayor of London.
The bridge across the river had been championed by Mr Osborne as chancellor.
The Guardian's media writer Jane Martinson said Mr Osborne's first paper as editor demonstrated that he "intends to take on Theresa May".
Political blogger Guido Fawkes said the Standard's editorial "repeats the Juncker briefing uncritically as if it is gospel".
The BBC's political editor Laura Kuenssberg tweeted: "Irony alert - George Osborne's first editorial in Standard warns govt against only repeating slogans, and asking for a 'blank cheque'". | The first Evening Standard under George Osborne's editorship has focused on reported strained relations between the PM and the EU. |

The taxi driver then dumped their bodies on a secluded road and took a flight to Islamabad.
A jury at Bradford Crown Court found him guilty on Tuesday. He was sentenced earlier to a minimum term of 31 years.
Live updates and news from Yorkshire
The court heard Zubair was detained in Pakistan in November 2013 but not returned to the UK until May 2016 after he appealed against extradition, the court heard.
It was the first extradition from Pakistan to the UK in 10 years, police said at the time.
Judge Rodney Jameson QC said the 36-year-old fled the country intending never to return.
Jurors were told Mr Khyel had been having an affair with Zubair's wife Kainat Bibi and the defendant had known about it for some months, the court heard.
Mr Khyel, 35, from London, and his friend Mr Khan, 27, from Bradford, had gone to Zubair's home in Heath Terrace, Bradford. believing it was safe.
But the defendant knew they were coming and went to the property.
Mr Khyel had been struck by at least six "savage blows", most of them with a dumb-bell bar. His skull was fractured and fragments driven into the brain, said the judge.
Mr Khan suffered "not less than 13 blows" and his skull was also fractured, he added.
Det Supt Simon Atkinson, of West Yorkshire Police, said: "Zubair fled the country shortly after he had killed his victims in the belief that he would also escape justice for these horrendous crimes." | Barrow have signed striker Ross Hannah from National League rivals Chester on a two-year deal.

"Pre-season can be hugely lucrative," football finance expert Rob Wilson told BBC Sport. "A club does a tour, they sell more products, there's more branding and more sponsors start to get involved.
"If they can generate £5m or £10m from a two-week tour, that's more than what some of the other clubs will get."
According to Wilson, from Sheffield Hallam University, China is an attractive proposition for the future due to its position as an "untapped" but "serious player" in the football market.
"What we've seen in the past 10 years is big clubs going further and further afield," Wilson added. "They are looking to leverage new markets, like China, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand. Australia is not doing too bad."
Champions Leicester, Arsenal, Chelsea, Crystal Palace, Swansea and Southampton were among the teams to play in the United States.
However, Premier League clubs' trips could have a negative effect in the long run, according to USA Today sports columnist Martin Rogers.
"There is interest - the games are pretty well attended," said Rogers. "But as the American fan becomes sophisticated, they'll soon get tired of a second-string Chelsea side or a second-string Liverpool side.

Summarize the information given below. | The Dadaab camp is home to more than 300,000 Somalis.
President Hassan Sheik Mohamed told the BBC that forced repatriation was not in the best interests of either country.
Kenya says it wants to close the camp over security concerns, saying attacks on its soil have been planned there.
Kenya did not follow through on a previous threat to close down the camp, made last April following the deadly attack by a Somali militant group al-Shabab on a university 100km (62 miles) away.
The al-Qaeda linked group has staged several attacks on Kenya in recent years.
Authorities needed to agree on "the best way to bring these people in an orderly manner and in a dignified way based on the international laws... We don't want to have our relations affected with Kenya," President Mohamed told the BBC Somali service.
He said Somalia was grateful for Kenya's support in accommodating the refugees over such a long period and was committed to getting its people home.
Dadaab was set up in 1991 to house families fleeing conflict in Somalia, and some people have been living there for more than 20 years. | Somalia's president has called for "a better way" to bring home refugees from his country, with Kenya insisting that it will go ahead with its plan to close the world's largest refugee camp. |
Summarize the content given in the passage. | The £6bn project will link the M25, near North Ockendon, Essex, with the A2 near Shorne, Kent, passing through greenbelt land.
The transport secretary said it would create more than 6,000 jobs and boost the economy by more than £8bn.
Adam Holloway, Gravesham's Conservative MP, said it was a "crazy idea" and "a disaster for the people of Dartford".
Under the plans, the new road will cross the A13 at Orsett and connect land east of Tilbury to land east of Gravesend.
Stay up to date on our Live page.
A new road will then take traffic to the A2, near Thong, via the Western Southern Link.
Transport Secretary Chris Grayling said the new Lower Thames Crossing would also "reduce the burden on the busy Dartford Crossing".
A public consultation about the crossing started in January last year, with Highways England recommending option "C" as the favoured route.
However, opponents raised objections to the fact it would cut through greenbelt land, and its proximity to homes and schools.
Chair of Shorne Parish Council Robin Theobald told the BBC earlier that it was "not a day for celebrations".
Anti-option C campaign group, A Bridge Too Far, argued it would have a "detrimental affect" on the local area and Bob Lane, from the Lower Thames Crossing Association said: "Highways England have hoodwinked the government with their biased consultation. There wasn't a single mention of Option A."
There were originally three main ideas for a new crossing location:
Bryan Sweetland, representing Gravesham on Kent County Council added it would take 10 years to build, by which time the old tunnels at Dartford would also need replacing.
Gravesham MP Mr Holloway, who also objected to the route, said: "It's a crazy idea. They [the Department for Transport] have no numbers on what portion of this traffic is national, and what is regional.
"It's also a disaster for the people of Dartford. We've had this once in a generation opportunity to fix the problem at Dartford, and it's been flopped."
However, according to the Department for Transport (DfT), the chosen option was picked by nearly 47,000 people who took part in a consultation.
A spokesman for the DfT said the C route had been "optimised" after the consultation, and moved slightly east to avoid people's homes.
The Ebbsfleet Development Corporation, which is building thousands of houses across north Kent, Eurotunnel, the Port of Dover, Kent Invicta Chamber and Dartford council leader Jeremy Kite (Con) all voiced their support for the decision.
Christian Brodie, of the South East Local Enterprise Partnership said: "This will strengthen the resilience of our UK and European connections - imperative as we now move towards Brexit."
Mr Grayling also promised £10m to help tackle traffic jams around the existing crossing.
Dartford's Conservative MP Gareth Johnson welcomed the decision, saying it was right "for Dartford but also for the whole country".
He added: "It would have been wrong to locate another crossing at Dartford and funnel more traffic in to the area and on to roads that can't cope as it is.
"I understand this decision may not be welcomed by residents in Gravesend but we will do what we can to ensure the impact on the environment is limited."

What is the summary of the document provided? | Ms Sturgeon is meeting workers, unions and management at the Dalzell plate rolling works in Motherwell and the Clydebridge plant in Cambuslang.
Tata this week confirmed plans to mothball both facilities.
The Scottish government has said it will "leave no stone unturned" in its efforts to keep the plants open.
Ms Sturgeon has set up a Scottish steel task force, which will "seek a viable alternative to the potential mothballing of Tata Steel operations in Scotland".
It will also look to support the 270 staff affected by the move.
The task force, which is due to hold its first meeting next week, will be chaired by Scottish business minister Fergus Ewing and include representatives from Tata Steel, trade unions, local councils, Scottish government agencies and local politicians.
Tata has blamed the planned closures on a flood of cheap imports from China, a strong pound and high electricity costs.
It said it had looked at "all other options" before taking the decision.
Tata Steel human resources director Tor Farquhar later said he was "pessimistic" about the Scottish plants re-opening.
The trade union Community, which represents many of the steel workers affected, welcomed the setting up of a task force.
However, it added that it needed to come up with "real, practical solutions that protect the workforce, the skills and the assets until we can find an alternative and sustainable future".
Meanwhile, Scottish Labour called on the government to make a statement to the Scottish parliament next week on the steel industry.
Labour MSP James Kelly said Scottish ministers must report on the outcome of the task force's first meeting and set out the specific actions that will be taken to protect jobs and secure a future for the steel industry.
Mr Kelly, who is a member of the task force, added: "The steel industry is an iconic part of the culture, community and economy of Lanarkshire. Generations of families have worked at the plants in Clydebridge and Dalzell.
"We must move heaven and earth to save jobs and secure a future for the steel industry in Scotland."
The decision to close the two Tata plants in Scotland in effect ends production at the country's last two major steelworks.
The Dalzell Steel and Iron Works opened in 1872, and Clydebridge in 1887.
The plants became two of the giants of Scottish industry, with Clydebridge providing steel plates for many of the most famous ships built on the River Clyde. | First Minister Nicola Sturgeon is visiting two Tata steel plants in Scotland which have been earmarked for closure, with the loss of 270 jobs. |

Write a summary of this document. | McAllister converted Shane Sutherland's cross on 25 minutes and added his second on the stroke of half-time with a thunderous strike.
Liam Watt pulled one back just after the hour mark, turning in Paul McLean's cross, but McAllister and Sutherland struck in the final quarter.
Bottom side Brechin are seven points adrift of ninth-placed Forfar Athletic.
It was almost too bad to put into words. To be bowled out for 123 and then see that chased down in 12.2 overs is extremely chastening for Eoin Morgan's side. They will feel utterly embarrassed.
There can be no excuses, especially as they won the toss and batted first on a good pitch.
After the match, Morgan said that the ball swung more than he thought it would but, though Tim Southee was excellent for his 7-33, the movement was nothing excessive or different from what England should be used to.
To be fair, we knew the first two matches against Australia and New Zealand would be the most difficult that England would encounter, but the margin of the defeats is a cause for concern.
And, as a result of losing both their openers, the amount of leeway England have is tightening.
They can lose a total of three matches and still qualify for the quarter-finals, but the likes of Bangladesh, Afghanistan and Scotland, whom they play in Christchurch on Monday, will now see England as entirely beatable.
In addition, other things look to be conspiring against England. The weather in Brisbane is likely to give Bangladesh an abandonment point they probably would not have got had they played Australia.
After England's defeat by Australia in Melbourne, we said we wanted to see an improvement in the team's bowling and fielding. However, the fact they were rolled for 123 means we did not get the chance - we are none the wiser.
Great credit should be given to Southee, who is quicker than he looks and swings the ball just enough. He is a very talented cricketer.
But the way England played him was poor. I'm not pinning this performance on Gary Ballance, who has not played a lot of cricket, but he looks well short of his best. I'd like to see Alex Hales take his place against Scotland.
As for Morgan, who had managed only two runs in his previous four innings, a score of 17 will do little to get the monkey off his back and the manner in which he fell was disappointing.
I heard him say after the match that the brilliant catch Adam Milne took at long-on was only a half-chance, but it was more than that. A loose shot sparked a collapse of seven wickets for 19 runs.
After that, the destructive Brendon McCullum was always likely to play in the blistering manner he did when faced with such a small target.
Even then, those who saw his innings will remember it for a long time. The fastest half-century in World Cup history and 77 from 25 balls was simply breathtaking.
Will England make changes to the bowling attack that was destroyed by McCullum? Steven Finn, with 0-49 from two overs, would seem the most likely candidate to make way.
The fact is, though, that England have very little to time to put things right. There are only two days before the Scotland game, one of which will be spent travelling, the other will involve a light training session.
In some ways, that might be no bad thing. They simply have to get out there, put in a dominant performance and beat Scotland by a handsome margin.
But can they pick themselves up from the harrowing events of Wellington and be in the right state of mind for the Scots and the matches against Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Afghanistan that follow?
In theory, England can still win the World Cup. But how much damage has already been done?

Can you summarize this content? | Niche Drinks has invested £12m into The Quiet Man at Ebrington, which will also include a visitor centre.
It is the first whiskey distillery to open in the city for nearly 200 years.
The project got the thumbs up from Derry City and Strabane District Council on Wednesday.
Ebrington was formerly an Army base but it is now the largest single regeneration site in the city.
"I named the whiskey after my father who had been a bartender for 52 years," Niche Drinks' Ciaran Mulgrew told BBC Radio Foyle.
"He always used to say that in a lifetime working behind the bar he had seen everything and heard every story there was to hear but like all good bartenders he was true to his code.
"He told no tales so they called him the quiet man and I thought, that's what I'll call the whiskey."
The new distillery is to start operating within a year and the visitor centre will open by the middle of 2018.
By the end of the 19th century, Derry was said to be producing more whiskey than any other city in the world.
Known as the whiskey capital of the world, the craft died out with the closing of Watts distillery in the 1920s.

The stock tumbled as much as 7% immediately after news of the fire at Heathrow Airport, but eased back later.
Earlier this year, problems with batteries on Dreamliner aircraft led to the grounding of the fleet and forced Boeing into a costly re-design.
The company's shares had been trading at a 52-week high on Friday before news of the fire first broke.
Companies supplying parts of the Dreamliner, including Honeywell and Rockwell Collins, were also hit. The fall in Boeing's stock was its biggest one-day drop since August 2011.
"If we learn this is from the battery, it is a very big problem" for Boeing, Bloomberg Industries' senior aerospace analyst George Ferguson told the BBC.
Boeing has not yet disclosed the full cost of resolving the Dreamliner's battery problems and any compensation for customers.
The entire fleet of 50 787s in service was` grounded in January for problems involving the aircraft's lithium-ion batteries. One caught fire at Boston's Logan airport.
The aircraft resumed flying in May after Boeing made redesigns to the battery system that were approved by global aviation regulators.
Ethiopian Airlines, whose Dreamliner caught fire at Heathrow on Friday, was the first operator to resume flights of the 787.
The covers of the new range of maps, called OS Explorer Outdoor Leisure, feature photographs of the area taken by members of the public who submitted their pictures as part of the OS Photofit competition.

Summarize the following excerpt. | The County Antrim-born star was in high spirits during Saturday night's fight and appeared to slur his speech during a TV interview in the boxing arena.
Nesbitt said that the next day, he felt like he too "had been through 12 gruelling rounds" with Frampton.
He sent belated congratulations to the boxer via the BBC's Nolan Show.
"I was hoping to congratulate you on the night, but was unable to speak to you," Nesbitt said.
"But to be fair I was unable to speak - a little bit too much hospitality beforehand.
"What a performance, and indeed you weren't bad either," he joked.
Nesbitt was in the crowd in Manchester Arena to support Frampton, alongside some other well-known faces from Northern Ireland including County Antrim jockey Sir Anthony McCoy and Irish football manager Martin O'Neill.
The actor's impaired speech was the subject of much comment on Twitter, with comedian Jake O'Kane speculating: "The big question tonight is will Jimmy Nesbitt hit the canvass before Quigg or Frampton?"
Frampton beat Scott Quigg via a split decision in Manchester to add the WBA super-bantamweight title to the IBF title he already owned.
The actor recorded a video message to the new world champion, while taking a break from working on location in Singapore, saying it was as far away as he could get after his TV interview on Saturday night.
"We are incredibly proud of you, and indeed on Sunday morning I felt as if I too had been through 12 gruelling rounds with the world champion - Northern Ireland's very own Carl Frampton," Nesbitt said.
"Everyone is so proud, well done."
Whitehall officials have acknowledged the security service was examining what assumptions had been made about the 22-year-old before last Monday's attack.
It later emerged it was alerted to his extremist views on three occasions.
Fourteen locations are being searched by police and 13 men remain in custody on suspicion of terror offences.
The latest person to be arrested was a 19-year-old man in the Gorton area of Manchester on Sunday. A 25-year-old man was held earlier in the Old Trafford area of the city.
MI5 has launched a "post incident investigation" into how the Manchester bomber was overlooked, while a separate report is being prepared for ministers and those who oversee the work of the service.
A Whitehall official said previously that Abedi was one of a "pool" of former subjects of interest whose risk remained "subject to review" by the security service and its partners.
Born in Manchester to Libyan parents. aged 16, BBC Newsnight reported he fought against the Colonel Gaddafi regime with his father during the school holidays.
It was while at Manchester College that two people who knew Abedi have confirmed they made separate calls to an anti-terrorism hotline to warn the police about his extremist views.
Seven children were among those who died when the Abedi detonated a bomb on 22 May, at the end of a concert by US singer Ariana Grande at Manchester Arena.
Greater Manchester Police have made an appeal to the public for information about his movements since 18 May, when he returned to the UK from abroad.
His city centre flat was one of the last places he went - and where he may have made the final touches to his explosive device - before going to the arena, police have said.
Police said their investigation is "making good progress" and has around 1,000 people working on it.
In total 15 people have been arrested in Greater Manchester, Warwickshire and Merseyside - but a woman and a 16-year-old boy were later released without charge.
The UK threat level has been reduced from critical to severe and soldiers deployed to support the police will be gradually withdrawn from Monday night.
Additional security measures were in place for the Great Manchester Run on Sunday, which attracted tens of thousands of participants.
A huge round of applause for the emergency services followed a minute's silence for the victims and casualties.
There was also higher security at weekend events such as the FA Cup final in London.

Provide a concise summary of this excerpt. | The Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit (ECIU) also said opting for "established" approaches instead would save bill payers £1bn a year in total.
EDF Energy, which has agreed to back Hinkley, said the ECIU report did not offer "credible alternatives".
The government is due to make a final decision on Hinkley in the autumn.
French firm EDF, which is financing most of the £18bn Hinkley Point project in Somerset, approved the investment at a board meeting last month.
However, the government, under new Prime Minister Theresa May, then made the surprise announcement that it wanted to delay its final decision on the project so it could carry out a review.
One of the report's authors, former Npower chief executive, Paul Massara - who now runs North Star Solar - said: "You are looking at a deal which is two and half times the current price, it goes on for 35 years and effectively this report today shows we can transition to a low carbon, affordable secure option without Hinkley and that's what we should be doing."
Mr Massara said a more "flexible" cost saving approach was needed that "includes things like demand-side management, which means people can turn down their electricity demand and manage their demand, with smart meters and batteries which are going to come in the next five to six years".
If it goes ahead, it is forecast Hinkley Point C would deliver 7% of the UK's electricity. The low-carbon electricity it would generate would help towards achieving climate goals.
However, the government has guaranteed EDF a fixed price for the electricity it produces for 35 years. That fixed price is £92.50 per megawatt hour - nearly double the current rate.
That is expected to push up energy bills for consumers in the long run.
The government used one method to calculate it, which could add about £10 a year to each household's bill, although some other calculations have suggested it could be more.
In its report, the not-for-profit ECIU made the assumption that "the total annual cost of Hinkley will probably be about £2.5bn".
It then calculated the cost of a basket of alternative measures to meet the country's energy and climate change targets, and concluded that bill payers, both domestic and business, would end up paying a total of £1bn less per year for their energy if they were adopted than if Hinkley C were built.
The think tank's alternative proposals include building more wind farms and gas-fired power stations than are currently planned and laying more cables connecting the UK grid with other countries.
"Our conclusion is that [Hinkley Point's] not essential," said ECIU director, Richard Black.
"Using tried and tested technologies, with nothing unproven or futuristic, Britain can meet all its targets and do so at lower cost," he added.
However, EDF said while all approaches put forward by the ECIU would be included in the ideal future energy mix, large scale nuclear generation would also be part of it.
"The scenarios outlined in the ECIU report are not credible alternatives to Hinkley Point C," the company added.
"Hinkley Point C's cost is competitive with other large-scale low carbon technologies. It will generate electricity steadily even on foggy and still winter days across Northern Europe. It will play a crucial role as part of a future, flexible energy stream."
The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) said in a statement: "Our priority is to ensure that everyone has secure, clean and affordable energy now and in the future. This is why we want the UK to have a diverse and reliable mix of energy sources including nuclear, renewable energy and gas." | The Hinkley Point C nuclear power plant is "not essential" for the UK to meet its energy and climate change targets, according to a think tank. |
Can you summarize the following content in brief? | The world number four, 28, shot a 68 to tie for 22nd in the US PGA on Sunday, and has now gone three years without a major victory.
"I don't know what I'm going to do," said McIlroy, who suffered the injury testing equipment over the winter.
"You might not see me until next year. You might see me in a couple of weeks' time. It really depends."
The US PGA was only McIlroy's 13th tournament of a season in which he has not won.
He was the pre-tournament favourite at Quail Hollow following top-five finishes in his previous two tournaments and a brilliant record at the venue, notably two wins and a course-record 61.
However, he was never in contention for a first major success since the 2014 US PGA at Valhalla.
"I can go out there and play and shoot decent scores, but when I come off the course I feel my left rhomboid going into spasm," he said.
"The inside of my left arm goes numb. I don't know what to do. I have got this next week off to assess what I need to go forward."
McIlroy's injury may end his hopes of winning the FedEx Cup - and $10m (£7.69m) in prize money - for the second year running.
He began the week 43rd in the rankings and needs to be in the top 30 to qualify for the season-ending Tour Championship in late September.
"I'm capable of playing well enough to give myself a chance in it," he said.
"At the same time, April is a long way away. That's the next big thing on my radar."
McIlroy would complete a career Grand Slam with victory in the Masters in April 2018.
He added: "I feel like I have a sense of, not duty, but I've missed a lot of time already. If I'm capable of playing, I feel like, why shouldn't you?
"But then at the same time if you are not capable of playing at your best, why should you play? It's a Catch-22."
The FedEx Cup play-offs get under way with the Northern Trust Open on 24 August, and McIlroy is the defending champion of the Dell Technologies Championship the following week.
He took six weeks off after losing out in a play-off for the South African Open in January and also missed the PGA Championship at Wentworth and the Memorial Tournament.
"We took as much time as we needed to at the start of the year," said McIlroy, who will seek the advice of sports scientist Steve McGregor in Northern Ireland in the next few days.
"It felt OK through the Masters and I switched it off for a couple of weeks because I was getting married, going on honeymoon.
"Once I started practising again, I didn't build up the volume gradually. I went from zero to hitting balls for three or four hours a day. That aggravated it a little bit.
"I just haven't allowed it the time to fully heal. I wanted to play the season. I feel like I'm capable of playing well and winning and putting rounds together.
"If I want to challenge on a more consistent basis, I need to get 100% healthy. I want to get back into that winner's circle." | Northern Ireland's Rory McIlroy said he might not play again until next year because of a long-standing rib injury. |
Give a brief summary of the provided passage. | Sergei Sobyanin, aged 52, was picked to replace Yuri Luzhkov who was sacked last month by Mr Medvedev.
Mr Sobyanin's appointment is expected to be rubber-stamped by Moscow's City legislators.
Mr Medvedev said he removed Mr Luzhkov, who had been in office since 1992, because he lost his "trust".
In the weeks before the sacking on 28 September, Mr Luzhkov had been the subject of a constant barrage from state-run TV, which criticised him for gridlock on the capital's roads and bulldozing historic buildings.
Mr Luzhkov, 74, and his billionaire wife, Yelena Baturina, have been also accused of corruption.
Mr Luzhkov has denounced all the claims as "total rubbish", designed to make him "lose his balance". He has threatened to sue the TV channels concerned.
"I want to tell you that I have decided to submit your candidacy to the Moscow city government," Mr Medvedev told Mr Sobyanin at a meeting at the presidential country residence in Gorki, outside Moscow, on Friday.
The president also urged Mr Sobyanin to urgently tackle Moscow's main problems, especially corruption and the city's notorious traffic jams.
Mr Sobyanin still needs to be backed by the Moscow's city legislators. But the vote is seen as a formality, because the parliament is dominated by members from the ruling pro-Kremlin United Russia party.
Mr Sobyanin has the experience of running a major Russian region, having served as governor of the Tyumen oblast.
He moved to Moscow in 2005 to become chief of staff to the then President Putin.
In 2008, he ran Mr Medvedev's successful campaign in the presidential polls.
Later that year, Mr Sobyanin rejoined Mr Putin's team after the latter became Russia's prime minister.
Mr Sobyanian's latest appointment could further strengthen Mr Putin's grip on power in the run-up to the 2012 presidential elections, in which he has hinted he may run to return to the Kremlin. | Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has nominated Prime Minister Vladimir Putin's close aide as the next mayor of the capital, Moscow. |
Provide a brief summary for the information below. | The warm weather has been blamed for the deluge of barrel jellyfish on the Dorset coastline in recent weeks.
Weymouth's sea life park said it was an unusual incident for the area, with very few reported sightings since the early 2000s.
Experts say their stings are not powerful enough to harm humans, but people are advised not to touch them.
The Sea Life Centre said the large amount of jellyfish could be because there is more plankton around in warmer waters, and strong winds can then sweep them into the shallows.
A centre spokeswoman said they "were getting washed up in their hundreds".
The barrel jellyfish are not severely poisonous, with people feeling something akin to a nettle sting when touched.
Dead jellyfish can still sting if touched.

Write a summary for this information. | A fifth of nursery providers delivering the current 15 hours' entitlement say they won't be offering the new 30 hours when the scheme starts in September.
Official data shows 44,250 providers plan to offer the full entitlement, against 54,900 offering 15 hours now.
The government is spending a record £6bn on childcare by 2020.
The Department for Education said its survey was conducted between March and July 2016, before the full funding details for 30-hour provision were finalised.
Neil Leitch, chief executive of the Pre-school Learning Alliance, has long said many of those providing care for three and four-year-olds would be unwilling to deliver the 30-hour offer without extra funding.
"What's most alarming is that these figures were gathered at a time when many providers thought they would be receiving close to the average funding rate of £4.88 per hour," he said.
"With final rates currently being confirmed across the country, and many providers discovering that they'll be receiving significantly less, we would expect the number of settings opting out of the 30-hour offer to be even higher than these statistics suggest."
Local authorities are currently telling their local providers how much they will be paying.
Mr Leitch added that the fact that rates were being frozen until 2020 could make things worse because costs such as wages, rents and mortgages were likely to increase significantly.
The DfE data shows that there are currently 22,700 pre-schools and nurseries offering 15 hours of free entitlement.
But only 14,600 pre-schools and nurseries say they definitely plan to offer the 30 hours.
Meanwhile 8,200 primary schools with nurseries currently offer the 15 hours, but only 3,900 say they intend to offer 30 hours.
In addition, 350 maintained nursery schools plan to offer the 30 hours, compared with 400 that currently offer the 15 hours.
The only provider type likely to see an increase is childminders, with 25,400 planning to offer the 30 hours, compared with 23,600 who currently offer the 15 hours.
The figures come not long after research suggested the DfE had significantly underestimated the number of children likely to be eligible for the extra hours offer.
But they also suggest that 60% of larger, group-based providers intend to offer the 30 hours.
The DfE said in a statement: "Since this survey was conducted, we have published our Early Years National Funding Formula, which will see increased hourly funding rates for the vast majority of providers and our Early Implementers are now successfully delivering the offer a year early."
A minimum funding level of £4.30 per hour has since been set centrally.
The series starts in Brisbane on 22 October with the first of three one-day internationals.
The day-night Test match at the North Sydney Oval starts on 9 November and will be followed by three Twenty20 internationals.
Australia regained the Women's Ashes - a multi-format, points-based contest - in 2015.
The first men's day-night Test was held in December 2015 and the 2017-18 Ashes series includes a day-night Test for the first time.
"We are proud to see our sport continue to develop and break new ground," said England Cricket Board director of women's cricket Clare Connor.
"We will ensure that the England women's team is fully prepared for the unparalleled challenge of an Ashes series down under, with the sole intention of bringing the trophy back home."

England and Australia will meet in the first women's day-night Test during the 2017 Women's Ashes series. |
Give a brief summary of the following article. | Before the tournament started it had been built up as the tightest Six Nations in recent memory.
And after the first round of matches there is only a total of eight points separating the six sides over the three games.
Eddie Jones began life in charge of England with a 15-9 win over Scotland, France scraped a 23-21 victory against Italy, before Wales fought back from 13-0 down to earn a 16-16 draw against last year's winners Ireland.
How will the four home nations look back on a weekend of narrow margins and tightrope tension?
In the build-up to the Six Nations, Wales backs coach Rob Howley was saying how they have been trying to learn the lessons from the World Cup and particularly that period when they failed to punish an Australia side that were down to 13 men in the pool stages.
They were noticeably more expansive against Ireland than they have been in previous years. They were less predictable in attack, while keeping the ferocious defence that has been their hallmark.
Number eight Taulupe Faletau could really benefit if it is a change in style that Wales stick with. I'm a great admirer of his, but in previous seasons he has been a little restricted by Wales' gameplan. He is athletic, his footwork is superb, he is strong and aggressive in defence and he will flourish in a more ambitious Wales side.
I can't wait to see him in this tournament, then test himself against Kieran Read when they tour New Zealand in the summer, before he finally arrives at my old club Bath.

Jamie Roberts was also impressive. The 29-year-old has reached that stage, approaching your 30s, where you appreciate how lucky you are to have the career you have and also become aware that it won't last forever. That inspires you to work even harder and push to really maximise your talent.
He has had a strange first half to the season - playing student rugby for Cambridge and studying - and I think that has refreshed him mentally and physically.
If Wales lose fly-half Dan Biggar to injury for a time you know what you are going to miss: a high percentage return from your goal kicking, his excellence under the high ball - particularly chasing his own kicks - and a continuity in attack.
Rhys Priestland is certainly capable of delivering the same excellent kicking and I don't think you are losing much in attack. Both players are excellent distributors but don't make breaks regularly.
It was a frustrating result for Ireland - who had a clear opportunity to win the game and failed to do so having taken a 13-0 lead.
However, the intensity of the match meant that there would inevitably be ebbs and flows. Neither side could keep up the pace that they set themselves in their best periods, especially considering it was the opening game of the tournament.
Ireland were missing some world-class players in Sean O'Brien, Peter O'Mahony and Rob Kearney, and they can take consolation that they emerged unbeaten from a match that was of a higher quality than the other two on the opening weekend.
If O'Brien especially is fit for next week they will be licking their lips with the chance of getting their teeth stuck into a France pack that looked pedestrian against Italy.
I don't think we have seen too much difference in England's play just yet after Eddie Jones taking over as coach. He's only had a couple of weeks or so with the players so it is far too early.
What we have seen is a difference in leadership and presentation. He is very direct in news conferences - he does not um and ah over words - and his players are clearly in no doubt about what he wants from them. And I don't think he will stand for too many poor performances from any individual before they are gone.
George Kruis made an immediate good impression and was vying with Billy Vunipola for man of the match.

The Saracens lock was impressive in the line-out - winning the ball nine times including one steal - made 16 tackles - only two less than open-side flanker James Haskell, and took his try well too.
He left his mark on the game and the Scottish players.
The exciting thing about number eight Billy Vunipola is not just the high level of his performance, but also the room for improvement. He made a team-high 22 carries and was often making yards off a standing start. If he attacks the defence at pace he will be an even more effective player.
The backline, by contrast, did not get too involved. England kicked from hand 41 times - that is a lot. Territory is vital - you have to get it as efficiently as possible and that is often by kicking - but sometimes it was needless and brought on by nerves and inexperience.

What was encouraging was the unstructured heads-up rugby that produced Jack Nowell's try. There was nothing pre-planned in the way that Ford, Farrell, Mako Vunipola and Nowell played off each other. That beautiful offload by Mako Vaunipola would have us all raving if it had been a New Zealand or South Africa prop.
We have yet to see how long a leash Jones has given them to play off the cuff like that, but I feel that they will have permission to go for their lives - just so long as they execute properly.
The stats are kind to Scotland.
When you peruse the figures you see them making lots of tackles - both as a team and individuals - and enjoying enough territory and possession to win games, but consistently they are failing to do so.
And that is because they are making their mistakes in the areas and periods of the game that matter most - that is something that the stats don't show so easily. Scotland make critical mistakes at vital times. There are errors where there needs to be clarity of thought to get over the line and make pressure count.
Coach Vern Cotter said afterwards that they could have won the game but for a few mistakes, but I think behind closed doors he will have given them an earful because it was another missed opportunity.
There was a period between the 14th minute and 38th minute in which they were dominating the game and could have scored two tries, a penalty and a drop-goal. That would have been a serious half-time lead, but their lack of composure and ability to solve the problem in front of them meant most of those points were left out on the pitch rather than on the scoreboard.
I like Mark Bennett and Matt Scott as a centre combination, but wing Tommy Seymour made too many errors and fly-half Finn Russell played like he had the weight of the nation on his shoulders.
Cotter will keep faith with these players. He is right to because they are young and did reasonably well in the World Cup. But he also doesn't have a whole lot of other options.

Summarize the information in the following document. | Ex-Cronulla Sharks full-back Barba, 27, recently left rugby union club Toulon - a side he joined in a controversial code switch to avoid suspension.
The Rugby Football League says the NRL's sanction will apply, but clarity is needed to determine if the ban is applicable outside that competition.
"I hope we can sort it," said Holbrook.
"To get him playing for St Helens would be fantastic."
There is uncertainty about the terms of Barba's suspension after he tested positive for cocaine, as Australia's NRL said it would not begin until "he has completed any overseas sporting commitments".
When first explaining the ban in November 2016, an NRL statement read: "Given Barba has been released from his current contract, the suspension will apply if he returns to the NRL in the future."
If Barba was to join the Super League club in the coming week and the ban did apply in the northern hemisphere competition, he will miss the entirety of the regular season and would only be available for four of their fixtures following the Supers 8s split.
Barba watched from the St James' Park stands in Newcastle as Holbrook guided Saints to victory over Hull FC in his first game in charge.
The full-back's switch to French Top 14 rugby union came after he was sacked by NRL premiers Cronulla. And, while he then agreed a new deal with the Australian club in December, the contract was not ratified by the NRL.
A move to Saints would see Barba, the former Dally M Medal winner as the NRL's player of the year, reunited with Holbrook, who previously coached the player at Canterbury Bulldogs.
"He has done a couple of things wrong, but he is ready to go," Holbrook told BBC Radio Merseyside. "He is a terrific player and it would be great to see him in this competition.
"He was a massive hit in the NRL - people want to see those types of guys play." | St Helens coach Justin Holbrook says the Super League club want to sign Ben Barba, who could face a 12-match drugs ban on his return to rugby league. |
Give a brief summary of the following article. | Umar Khalid has been suspended for one semester and Anirban Bhattacharya has been barred from campus for five years.
Both students, and student leader Kanhaiya Kumar, who was also charged with sedition, have also been fined.
The three students were involved in a protest, on 9 February, over the hanging of a Kashmiri man, Afzal Guru.
Afzal Guru was convicted of a 2001 plot to attack India's parliament, charges he always denied. The attack, in which 14 people died, was carried out by Kashmiri militants.
His hanging in 2013 sparked protests in Kashmir, and he was seen as a martyr and a symbol of perceived injustice.
On 9 February, students at JNU held a demonstration to mark his execution. There were allegations that anti-India slogans were chanted at the protest.
Mr Kumar was arrested, while Mr Khalid and Mr Bhattacharya went missing but later handed themselves over to the police. All three were accused of sedition.
The arrests of the students led to protests and clashes across India.
Critics condemned the charges as an assault on freedom of expression, but government ministers refused to back down, vowing to punish what they described as "anti-national elements".
In addition to being suspended from classes, Mr Khalid and Mr Bhattacharya have been fined 20,000 rupees ($299; £206) each.
Mr Kumar has been fined 10,000 rupees.
Reports say that Mr Khalid and Mr Bhattacharya have been blamed for "triggering communal violence" and "disrupting" harmony on the campus. Mr Kumar was found guilty of indiscipline and misconduct.
Mr Bhattacharya said the punishment was "unacceptable", and described it as a "fascist witch-hunt of student activists by the administration".
But those years have been tough going for Katherine Garrett-Cox at Alliance Trust, as she's spent much of that time under siege by activist shareholders.
Her departure looked all but inevitable. She was forced to concede ground and board places to Elliott Partners hedge fund.
She then lost her seat on the board, her business and investment strategies were dumped, and her ally and chairwoman Karin Forseke was ousted.
With all that, the nickname she carries without evident relish, Katherine the Great, wasn't looking as apt as once it did.
Lord Robert Smith of Kelvin moved in to the chair only a few weeks ago. Alliance Trust insiders said he had until July to see whether the Dundee asset manager could meet expectations of returns and efficiency, or hand over its funds to a bigger player.
The new chairman was described as 'agnostic' on that question and told colleagues that he was not attracted to the job if it merely involved wielding the hatchet on the chief executive.
Lord Smith has previous. Made famous for his chairing roles of the Glasgow Commonwealth Games and the cross-party devolution commission that bore his name, he first hit the headlines as the man who infamously ousted "superwoman" Nicola Horlick from her City of London high flyer post. That was 19 years ago.
In exiting, Garrett-Cox has stressed how she has served shareholders with a view to the long-term, and reflecting the Alliance Trust heritage across generations of investors.
The implication is that others might have rather more short-term horizons. Elliott Partners has a habit of getting in, getting ruthless and getting out fast.
For those from the Garrett-Cox regime who remain at the Dundee headquarters, it's not clear who could lead the fight to retain its asset management role.
That July deadline for the test of her strategy may have just been made redundant.

But as what may be the world's smallest electorate gathers to replace the late Lord Avebury as an elected hereditary Liberal Democrat peer, a clash of Liberal dynasties looms.
Three current Lib Dem hereditaries are entitled to vote: Lord Addington, the descendent of a Conservative MP from the 1880s; the Earl of Glasgow, the descendent of one of the Scottish Commissioners who negotiated the 1703 Union of the kingdoms of Scotland and England; and the Earl of Oxford and Asquith, who is directly descended from the Liberal Prime Minister H H Asquith.
Family links may count for a lot here; I understand the main contenders for those three votes are John Francis Russell, 7th Earl Russell, the son of Lords icon Conrad Russell, grandson of Bertrand Russell and great-great-grandson of Lord John Russell, a Liberal hero who was Prime Minister from 1864 to 1865, and moved the Great Reform Act in 1832. The current Earl has been a Lib Dem councillor in Lewisham and ran for the London Assembly.
Or there's Viscount Thurso - John Thurso - who was defeated in his Caithness and Sutherland seat last May, in the SNP landslide; he's a descendent of the wartime Liberal leader, Archie Sinclair, who served in Churchill's wartime coalition.
And he also sat in the Lords as a hereditary peer, until Labour's exclusion of the hereditaries allowed him to seek a Commons seat. He's now looking to emulate Lord Hailsham, who left the Lords to become an MP, and then went back later on, and the rumour is that his second coming to their Lordships' House is highly likely.

Finn Russell replaces Peter Horne at fly-half and Jim Hamilton comes in at lock for Tim Swinson.
Scotland are looking for their first Six Nations win this year following a trio of narrow defeats by France, Wales and Italy.
Head coach Vern Cotter said: "Jim comes in and will bring his physicality and understanding of English rugby to our forward pack.
"It's good to have Dave Denton back as he provides us with strong ball-carrying and strong defence. He's also a very good line-out forward and will give us a bit more physical density against a big forward pack.
"It's been tough on Finn to sit out and it's great to have him back. He's slotted straight back in to the structure we're looking for.
"Finally, Dougie came on and played well against France and has had a couple of games with his club with a few work-ons.
"We're looking for him to bring his enthusiasm, energy and high work-rate, particularly in kick-chase and receipt."

Jonny Gray remains in the second-row with Hamilton, while Blair Cowan and Rob Harley start together for the sixth consecutive time in the back-row, alongside Denton.
Captain Greig Laidlaw will again partner stand-off Russell from scrum-half, with the latter returning from a two-week suspension, with Glasgow Warriors trio Mark Bennett, Tommy Seymour and Stuart Hogg completing the back-line.
Dunbar sustained his knee injury on Thursday morning and has already had it scanned, though the extent of the damage is not yet known.
Swinson drops to the bench to replace Ben Toolis, but with Johnnie Beattie and Adam Ashe also replacements that leaves Sam Hidalgo-Clyne and Greig Tonks as the only back replacements.
Cotter added: "This is a very important game.
"It will be played away from home at a very intense level and will allow us to assess further our ability to operate away from home in a hostile environment.
"Our focus, however, has been on ourselves and how we can perform better, by identifying the areas that we can control, like improving our skill-sets and reinforcing our cohesion, to withstand the difficult times and also apply some pressure."

Replacements: Fraser Brown, Ryan Grant (both Glasgow Warriors), Geoff Cross (London Irish), Tim Swinson (Glasgow Warriors), Johnnie Beattie (Montpellier), Adam Ashe (Glasgow Warriors), Sam Hidalgo-Clyne and Greig Tonks (both Edinburgh) | Scotland have made five changes to the starting line-up for Saturday's Six Nations match against England. |
Provide a summary of the section below. | But, because of current EU rules, it's unlikely that it will be successful.
Back in 2000 the VAT on tampons and sanitary towels was dropped from 17.5% to 5% after a campaign by Labour MP Dawn Primarolo.
However, standardised EU taxes mean that the rate cannot drop below 5% - and it's not just sanitary products that are affected.
Here's a list of the other items that people may consider important to their lives, which have VAT of 5%.
Why the 'tampon tax' is here to stay - for a while at least
People over 60 pay 5% on items such as grab rails, stair lifts and walk-in baths, so long as they are bought and installed in a private home.
If all those criteria aren't met, then full VAT of 20% is paid.
Nicotine patches, gum or inhalators to help you quit smoking all attract the 5% tax if you buy them over the counter.
VAT isn't charged on those items if they are prescribed by a doctor.
Some sanitary products are specifically designed for women have just given birth - like tampons, these have a 5% rate.
If the item you buy has a dual-use to help with both incontinence and menstruation, then it is exempt from VAT, subject to certain restrictions.
This is also true for pads which are just for incontinence.
According to HMRC, the 5% rate applies to children's car seats, booster chairs and booster cushions.
It is also charged on carry cots with restraint straps but prams and pushchairs attract a standard rate.
Along with other energy-saving materials such as wind turbines and insulation, if you install solar panels in your home then you will pay a reduced VAT of 5%.
This is also the case for boilers and radiators.
It's not just energy equipment that gets VAT of 5%.
You also pay that rate for any gas or electricity that is supplied to your home.

The regulator will examine directory enquiries numbers, which begin with 118, after some providers were found to be charging up to £10.50 a call.
It will also look at 070 numbers, which allow users to be contacted on any phone at any location, and can cost up to £3.40 a minute.
The telecoms regulator said prices should be "transparent and fair".
Ofcom, which raised its concerns last week, said there were now more than 400 directory enquiry services offering a variety of options and prices, with call costs ranging from 35p per call to £10.50.
However, there is no stipulated cap on such charges, meaning operators are free to charge up to a maximum of £23.97 for calls of less than a minute.
"Ofcom has been monitoring the costs of the more expensive services, which have risen significantly in recent months as fewer people use these services," it said.
Citizens Advice has said the current system leaves elderly people particularly vulnerable to high call charges.
Last week, it said it knew of one client who had received a £150 bill for calling a 118 number.
Meanwhile Ofcom said it was aware of one consumer who called directory enquiries in 2009, and ended up with a bill for £350.
When directory enquiries was deregulated in 2003, calls to BT's 192 service cost just 40p.
In a previous inquiry the watchdog decided against imposing a stipulated price cap on charges, but it could now review that decision.
Ofcom also plans to examine 070 numbers, which enable calls to be diverted from one phone number to another, so that the person being called can keep their own number private, and remain contactable wherever they go.
Small businesses and sole traders often use them to make it easier to manage calls.
However, Ofcom said it was concerned they could be confused with mobile phone numbers, which also start '07'.
"Ofcom is concerned about evidence of scams designed to make consumers believe they are calling a mobile number," it said.
"When people call the 070 number back, they are actually dialling a service costing up to £3.40 a minute."
The regulator said it expected to publish detailed proposals following its review later this year. | A petition calling for an end to a 5% tax on sanitary products has gathered more than 125,000 signatures.

What is the summary of the following document? | The U's leading scorer ensured his side bounced back from a midweek loss at Accrington with his 18th and 19th goals of the season.
Victory moved Shaun Derry's side up to 11th in the table, where they remain five points adrift of seventh spot.
After Jordan Bowery's early angled attempt was thwarted by Cambridge goalkeeper Will Norris' legs, Berry pounced in the 37th minute.
Crewe failed to clear their lines after Harrison Dunk's close-range header was saved by Ben Garratt and Berry seized possession inside the box and drove the ball into the far corner.
Dunk went close to adding a second on the stroke of half-time when he profited from Billy Bingham's miscued clearance, but Garratt saved the day for Crewe.
And the Cheshire side were level in the 58th minute when Chris Dagnall's cross was diverted into his own net by Leon Legge.
Berry, though, showed a clinical finish, driving a 72nd-minute free-kick low into the bottom corner to win it for the U's, who finished with 10 men after substitute Paul Lewis was sent off for a reckless lunge at Dagnall in the last minute.

Provide a concise summary of this excerpt. | But on 1 May tens of thousands of people congregate outside Magdalen College for 06:00 BST.
The reason for this bulging throng is the 500-year-old tradition of May Morning, when the university city unites to take part in celebration of spring - with an Oxford twist.
So what is it about the quirky three-hour early morning festival which last year saw 25,000 people get up at the crack of dawn?
As the bells of Magdalen College Tower ring on the hour, the crowds fall silent, and from the top of the tower the college's choir serenade the city with a hymn.
"It's really quite magical," city events officer Rachel Capell says.
"We are talking about thousands of people in a very small space, very close-knit together, but with the ability to hear a pin drop right before the choir sings."
On May Morning, the choir - which includes boy choristers from the college's affiliated school - ascend the 144ft (2m) bell tower up the narrow, precarious steps in the medieval building.
Informator choristarum Mark Williams said: "It is quite a steep climb and the last bit is just a ladder, so anyone who's slightly nervous of heights won't enjoy it.
"But I think once you're up there it's quite an experience."
The choir then performs Hymnus Eucharisticus, written by the college's 17th Century choirmaster Benjamin Rogers, then three madrigals before the tower bell ringers begin a celebratory chime.
As the bells swing on the rig, the tower sways up to 4in (10cm) at the top.
Home bursar Mark Blandford-Baker said: "It feels like about 4ft when you experience it the first time."
But he's confident: "Of course, our medieval forebears knew what they were doing. We're here 500 years on, it's not going to fall down this May Morning."
The origins of May Morning are sketchy, but many believe it dates to the time the tower was built and the college chose to sing in spring.
It has remained uniform since the 17th Century, when the carol Hymnus Eucharisticus was written by the Benjamin Rogers at the college, thus ensuring its enduring appeal.
Although a family-friendly event, students will often take full advantage of late closing times at pubs across the city and perform an all-night drinking endurance test.
At 05:00 cafes and pubs will reopen to offer the bleary-eyed undergraduates a chance to sober up before the choir sings.
In previous years students would famously undress and jump into the shallow River Cherwell from Magdalen Bridge, but this was stopped in 2005 when 40 revellers required treatment after jumping into 2ft (60cm) deep water.
However, there are other attractions once spring has been sung in and the bells have been rung.
It's then the crowds move through the city as Morris men parade through the streets towards Radcliffe Square to begin three hours of dancing and folk music.
The Oxford University Morris Men begin the festivities by performing Bonny Green around High Street, and sides continue dancing and performing across the city until about midday.
Oxford City Morris Men squire Graham Diggle says 150 performers take part.
It's their annual highlight, he says, it's when the community celebrates. | On most early mornings the streets of Oxford are empty, save for the odd second-year student dragging his or her intoxicated heels back to their halls of residence. |
Please summarize the document below. | The device, the only one if its kind in the UK, is the centrepiece of a new centre for designer quantum materials.
It will help create the next generation of electronic devices, one layer of atoms at a time.
There is no doubt that it looks fantastic.
It fills an entire laboratory. Its stainless steel tubes gleam. Its lights flash.
Its valves open and close and its computer monitors flicker.
Despite appearances it is science fact, not science fiction.
But what is it exactly? The answer trips off Dr Peter Wahl's tongue.
"This is a reactive oxide molecular beam epitaxy system," he says.
Happily for the rest of us he can also explain what that means.
"It is an instrument which allows us to build materials a single atomic layer at a time.
"So we can combine different materials, stacking them on top of each other, and basically changing the material with each individual layer."
To make these custom-engineered "supermaterials" the system uses high vacuums and temperatures.
Talk of the quantum world may bring to mind ideas like Schrodinger's Cat, which was supposedly alive and dead at the same time.
Creating quantum materials is a less intimidating concept.
It means manipulating things at their most basic level - in this case, atom by atom.
Dr Wahl, a reader in the school of physics and astronomy, makes it sound even less intimidating by invoking children's plastic bricks.
It is, he says, like playing Lego with atoms: putting two seemingly boring materials together as extremely thin films to make new stuff that's very interesting indeed.
"One relatively large field of potential applications for these materials is in what's called spintronics, where the spin of the electron suddenly becomes important and one can exploit it for new device functionalities."
Other potential applications include super-efficient energy distribution and high performance sensors.
It could lead to electronic devices that are a single atom thick.
Building exotic, designer, quantum materials does not come cheap.
The new centre represents an investment of £2m by the university, the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council and the Scottish Universities Physics Alliance (SUPA).
That's on top of previous investments of more than £4m by SUPA, the Scottish Funding Council and the university.
In return, St Andrews has created a facility that is unique in these islands to create materials that have never been seen before.
Adilson Tavares Varela, known as Cabral, told Hull Crown Court he had consensual sex with the 22-year-old woman at his flat in Gateshead.
The ex-Sunderland midfielder denied being "persistent, forceful and aggressive" and said he stopped having sex with her when she asked him to.
He denies two counts of rape.
The woman has told the jury Varela pinned her down on his bed and raped her after they met during a night out in Newcastle.
But the footballer said they kissed and danced together before going back to his home with friends, including retired French international Anthony Reveillere.
He said the woman asked him to go into the bedroom.
When asked about her behaviour, Varela said: "It was normal. It was a normal girl who wanted to have sex with me.
"It seemed to me she was used to doing this as she was in no way ashamed."
He told the court he removed all of his clothes except for his socks and that he and the woman had sex in two positions.
Speaking through an interpreter, Cape Verde-born Varela told the jury the woman asked him to stop after around 15 minutes because she was tired.
He said he stopped and swore at her in French because he felt "frustrated".
Varela, who has a fiancee and a three-year-old son who live in Switzerland, told the court he got dressed and returned to the others in the living room, where he sent a message to a woman he described as a "sex buddy".
He said the complainant later left his flat with the others and was upset because she thought her mother would be angry with her.
Varela now plays for Swiss team FC Zurich. The trial continues. | Physicists at the University of St Andrews have begun using a unique machine to create materials that are completely unknown in nature.

A former Premier League footballer accused of raping a woman he met in a nightclub has told a court she wanted to have sex with him. |
Please provide a summary for the content below. | The woman, named only as Robin, told a news conference that the alleged attack happened in 1973 when she was 16. She is the third woman to accuse Polanski of child abuse.
He fled the US in 1978 after admitting statutory rape of a 13-year-old.
His victim, Samantha Geimer, asked a Los Angeles court in June to end the case against him.
She said she had forgiven the filmmaker for the assault and wanted closure for herself and her family.
Robin, who appeared with her lawyer Gloria Allred in Los Angeles on Tuesday, cannot sue Polanski in a criminal court because the statute of limitation has passed.
However, she could testify against him in the case involving Ms Geimer.
She told journalists that she was "infuriated" that the case against Polanski, now 83, might be dropped and she believed he should still be held accountable for his assault on Samantha Geimer.
"The day after it happened, I did tell one friend that Mr Polanski had done that to me," she said.
"The reason, with this exception, that I kept it to myself is that I didn't want my father to do something that might cause him to go to prison for the rest of his life."
Polanski's lawyers have not yet commented on the latest accusations.
He admitted unlawful sex with a minor in 1977 and served 42 days in prison, but later fled the US over concern that a plea bargain deal would be scrapped.
The Oscar-winning director, who is a citizen of Poland and of France, has been a fugitive since.
In 2010 British actress Charlotte Lewis accused Polanski of sexually assaulting her in Paris in 1983, when she was 16 years old. She was also represented by lawyer Gloria Allred. | Another woman has come forward to say she was sexually molested in the 1970s by the film director Roman Polanski. |
Summarize the following content briefly. | The 28-year-old Scotland captain because of ulcerative colitis but returned to make 13 appearances this season for club and country.
His last appearance was on Boxing Day as an 89th-minute substitute in the 4-3 victory over Newcastle.
United say the surgery was planned.
A club statement read: "Darren Fletcher will be unavailable for the remainder of this season having undergone surgery to resolve his ulcerative colitis condition.
"We wish to stress this was a planned procedure undertaken at the optimal time having achieved a period of sustained good general health, as illustrated by the fact that Darren has trained with the team regularly this season and been available for selection right up to the operation.
"Whilst it is frustrating for both Darren and the club that he won't be able to contribute further during this campaign, this decision has been taken with our full support in the best interests of his long-term health and we look forward to him returning next season with this problem firmly behind him.
"We would be grateful if his privacy could be respected at this time and in the coming months in order to aid his recuperation."
New Scotland manager Gordon Strachan praised Fletcher's "commitment and pride" in playing for his country.
"I'm sure I speak for all Scotland fans when I say I hope that the operation allows Darren to overcome his condition and resume his role as a major influence for club and country in his own time," he said.
"In the meantime, I have stressed to him that, as captain, he remains an integral part of the international set-up and that he is welcome to join up with the squad at any time during his recovery."
Fletcher, who is contracted to the Red Devils until 2015, returned to first-team football after 11 months out when he came off the bench in United's 1-0 Champions League win against Galatasaray in September.
He made his Scotland comeback in the 2-1 World Cup qualifying defeat by Wales in October.
However his last start was on Saturday, 1 December in their 4-3 win at Reading and since then he has made only two brief substitute appearances. | Manchester United midfielder Darren Fletcher will miss the rest of the season following surgery to resolve his chronic bowel disease. |
