Basque Military Group ETA Dissolved

News and issues making the headlines each day.

The Basque militant group, ETA, has dissolved itself, bringing a formal end to its long and violent campaign for independence from Spain. We hear from a victim of their violence.

Also in the programme: The world's most prestigious literary award, the Nobel Prize for literature, will not be awarded this year, the last time this happened was in 1943. And Australia's oldest scientist, 104-year-old David Goodall, embarks on a journey to end his life at a Swiss clinic -- but the Australian medical profession believes its not the right decision.
