The Italian ministry of welfares Francesca Martini said: Far too many adolescent girls are unaware of the risks with this type of surgery and it should not be used purely for fashion. A register of qualified surgeons will also be drawn up to cut the number of botched operations. More than 10,000 teenage girls had plastic surgery last year.

A report to be handed to Justice minister Dermot Ahern today said people should be allowed to protect themselves, their family and their homes from attack. Professor Finbarr McCauley of the Law Reform Commission (LRC) said the review found that self-defence should be renamed le- gitimate defence. The law as it cur- rently stands is too vague, he said. The Commission said homeown- ers facing down burglars should not have to back-off from an attacker before launching a defence. The Government rejected a Fine Gael bill in September that would have protected householders who attack burglars in their home. The LRC review follows high- profile cases involving attacks on peoples homes. The most notorious case saw eld- erly Mayo farmer Padraig Nally shoot traveller John Frog Ward in the back after he entered his farm- yard. Television magician Keith Barry has also joined growing calls for the Government to toughen rules against burglars, in particular crimi- nals who target pensioners. His grandfather Paddy died days after a break-in at his Waterford home. The Commission said legitimate defence should be allowed if a vic- tim suffers a lethal attack, and as long as the defence is immediate, necessary and proportionate. Prof McAuley added: At present, a person is entitled to use force that is as reasonable as he or she deems it to be. That seemed to us to be too vague. We wanted to be very spe- cific as to when you could use force and particularly in the context of the defence of the home. The Commission said the defence should also be offered if someone who suffered a long period of sus- tained attacks hit back, for example a victim of domestic violence. The Commission recommends that the general rule that a person should retreat where possible should not apply when the attack is in the home. The paper will be launched by Justice Minister Dermot Ahern to- day.
