Good evening. Jobs could go up in the solar panel industry in Wales. | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
That is the warning that follows the cut in the amount of money paid | :01:29. | :01:36. | |
to home owners for producing electricity. There is an estimated | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
25,000 jobs installing solar panels across Britain bet from today, the | :01:40. | :01:46. | |
feed-in tariffs system is halved from 43 pence per kilowatt hour to | :01:46. | :01:52. | |
-- kilowatt hour to 21p. Two companies that are benefiting | :01:52. | :02:01. | |
from the solar Bloom. -- boom. Both companies have been working hard to | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
install as many panels as possible before last night's deadline. Now | :02:06. | :02:11. | |
they say that boom is over and the UK Government's decision to reduce | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
the rate paid for solar power means they would be able to recruit and | :02:14. | :02:22. | |
may have to lay off staff. We have been given six weeks nates -- | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
notice to change our plan. We has millions of businesses lined up and | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
we have lost that overnight. There is no disagreement there but | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
the way things are handled and the timing, it really does have the | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
impact of making the industry struggle which is unusual when it | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
is a time where we should be creating jobs. The UK Government | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
argues the payments on offer for producing electricity from solar | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
panels have been generous and with a technology getting cheaper, it | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
claims there will still be enough for the financial incentive for | :02:58. | :03:03. | |
homeowners and businesses to carry on investing in solar panels. | :03:03. | :03:09. | |
because the cost of technology has come down, they are getting a good | :03:09. | :03:19. | |
:03:19. | :03:19. | ||
return. There will -- that was unaffordable and it has to change. | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
There is evidence that the incentives have worked. As well as | :03:24. | :03:29. | |
jobs, installing several panels, Wills has a big stake in a | :03:29. | :03:35. | |
manufacturer. This factory near Wrexham pays 500 -- employers 500 | :03:35. | :03:41. | |
people to make the panels. There are concerns over the tariff and | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
the impact it could have on industry. The forecast is less | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
bright from today onwards. Even with the tariff Haft, Sola still | :03:49. | :03:59. | |
:03:59. | :04:03. | ||
pays twice the current household Let us talk to Stuart Pocock from | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
the Solar Trade Association. How many jobs could be lost across your | :04:07. | :04:13. | |
industry following the incentive cut today? We have conducted a | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
survey of our members active in Sola and the feedback from that is | :04:19. | :04:28. | |
that to 42% of the jobs of those 25,000 jobs created, could be lost. | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
You are simply a victim of your own success. There have been so many | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
takers that the money has run out early. You are correct in saying it | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
has been a great success. Homeowners and businesses have seen | :04:40. | :04:47. | |
the benefits of the technology. To say we are a victim of our own | :04:47. | :04:52. | |
success, what the issue is what we expect from Government is a clear | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
path way to manage the subsidies in a way that leads us to be subsidy | :04:58. | :05:03. | |
free. Sella is unusual in the case that by the end of this decade, or | :05:03. | :05:12. | |
it could run that subsidy free. -- solar power. | :05:12. | :05:17. | |
There are many solar panels and they are becoming commonplace and | :05:17. | :05:22. | |
the cost is coming down. The cost is coming down and the industry | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
accepts the fact that there is a cost to be paid in subsidies on | :05:27. | :05:34. | |
homeowners and businesses. However that cost needs to be managed and | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
we have advocated that the price or the subsidy paid in terms of the | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
tariff should be reduced. We would like to see a managed path way in | :05:44. | :05:50. | |
which those 60 productions are done in a clear, transparent way. Not in | :05:50. | :05:56. | |
the way that has been carried out in the proposals. | :05:56. | :06:02. | |

First Minister, Carwyn Jones, has said that David Cameron's decision | :06:30. | :06:34. | |
to veto a new treaty at the European summit last week could be | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
bad for Welsh business. He has written to the Prime Minister to | :06:38. | :06:43. | |
voice his objections and concerns. Let's talk to our political | :06:43. | :06:48. | |
reporter. You have spoken to the First Minister, what were his main | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
concerns? The war of words after his decision | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
last week to veto the changes to the EU treaty has continued today. | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
Carwyn Jones joining the debate that has written a letter to the | :07:01. | :07:06. | |
Prime Minister first -- foisting his objections saying that Wales's | :07:06. | :07:11. | |
national economic interests are best served by being within the | :07:11. | :07:16. | |
European Union. Carwyn Jones makes that point on several fronts. He is | :07:16. | :07:20. | |
standing up for well as business, saying there is lots of them | :07:20. | :07:26. | |
exporting to European countries and he is standing up for people relied | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
on the common agricultural policy and on structural funds which are | :07:29. | :07:35. | |
vital for economic development. This is what he had to say. | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
The worrying thing is this. We depend on the European Union for a | :07:39. | :07:44. | |
our jobs. 50% of what we'd do is exported to the rest of the | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
European Union. If we are semi- detached from it all on net | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
sidelines, it could have detrimental effects. In our chances | :07:53. | :08:00. | |
of attracting investment, it will effect that. Alex Salmond has | :08:00. | :08:07. | |
written a similar letter. Carwyn Jones said this European spat has | :08:07. | :08:17. | |
strengthened the SNP's calls for independence in Scotland. Carwyn | :08:17. | :08:20. | |
Jones would like to hazard a guess as to which way they would vote on | :08:20. | :08:26. | |
our. Other strong political reaction is coming from politicians | :08:26. | :08:36. | |
:08:36. | :08:38. | ||
in Wales. The Plaid, rue -- Plaid Cymru man that made the point that | :08:38. | :08:44. | |
there were 90,000 square miles in the UK but said that David Cameron | :08:44. | :08:49. | |
were standing up for one square mile, the City of London. This was | :08:49. | :08:54. | |
David Cameron's response. This is not just one square mile of the UK, | :08:54. | :08:59. | |
if the people working in the financial services industry in | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
Cardiff, banks, building societies, right across Wales, they need to | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
know that there is fair regulation within the EU and they want those | :09:06. | :09:12. | |
safeguards to. Reaction from Kirsty Williams, the leader of the Welsh | :09:12. | :09:17. | |
Liberal Democrats said that walking away from this was leaving nothing | :09:17. | :09:22. | |
for Wales and leaves Wales and the UK on the fringes of the biggest | :09:22. | :09:31. | |
single market trading problem. Her bank you. | :09:31. | :09:39. | |
The head of Wales's biggest manufacturing, at best, -- Airbus, | :09:39. | :09:49. | |
:09:49. | :09:50. | ||
says he is confident despite the veto. During a visit to the plant, | :09:50. | :09:53. | |
the chief executive of Airbus's parent company, praised the | :09:53. | :09:57. | |
partnership between Britain, France and Germany in building the | :09:57. | :10:05. | |
aircraft. The Prime Minister has visited our new facility and I | :10:05. | :10:12. | |
think it is a good example once again of war -- what Europe can do. | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
An elderly couple has been found dead in a house at Anglesey over | :10:15. | :10:21. | |
the weekend. The bodies of Ralph and Patricia Hay were found unsaid | :10:22. | :10:25. | |
same morning. The police are not treating the deaths as suspicious. | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
A woman has appeared in court charged with the murder of a young | :10:29. | :10:35. | |
mother in Gwynedd. 31 year-old Emma Louise Jones was stabbed in Pen Y | :10:35. | :10:41. | |
Groes at the weekend. A man was rip banded in custody and will appear | :10:41. | :10:45. | |
in court tomorrow. Emma Louise Jones described by a | :10:45. | :10:51. | |
family as a living mum, daughter, sister and girlfriend. Taken away | :10:51. | :10:56. | |
tragically. In a tribute issued through the police, family say she | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
will live in their hearts forever. As floral tributes continued to be | :11:00. | :11:06. | |
left at the scene, they are being supported by police, family and | :11:06. | :11:12. | |
liaison officers. She died as a result of a stab wound after an | :11:12. | :11:15. | |
incident in Pen Y Groes in the early hours of Saturday morning. | :11:15. | :11:21. | |
She was pronounced dead in hospital. Two other people arrested have been | :11:21. | :11:31. | |
:11:31. | :11:33. | ||
released. 23 year-old... There was a heavy police presence around the | :11:33. | :11:42. | |
police cordon this morning. Members of the public had to wait outside. | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
The accused's spoke to give her name, date of birth and address. | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
She will appear tomorrow in front of a judge. No application for bail | :11:50. | :11:57. | |
was made and she was remanded -- in custom-made -- in custody. Police | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
are asking for information from anyone who was in the area on | :12:01. | :12:06. | |
Much more to come before seven o'clock. | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
Gary Speed's assistant coach tells the BBC he did not say he wanted to | :12:09. | :12:14. | |
succeed him as Wales football manager. | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
One of the stormiest spells for years is set to continue this week | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
with heavy rain, gales and snow for parts of the country over the next | :12:21. | :12:31. | |
:12:31. | :12:33. | ||
couple of days. See you shortly for After years of delay, the | :12:33. | :12:36. | |
Children's Hospital for Wales has been given the go ahead to start | :12:36. | :12:40. | |
building its second phase. It will more than double the number of | :12:40. | :12:42. | |
patients who can be treated and introduce special operating | :12:42. | :12:52. | |
:12:52. | :12:56. | ||
theatres for children. The cost of It is another step on what's been a | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
long and difficult journey, from fundraising a decade ago to today's | :12:59. | :13:03. | |
final approval for the second part of the hospital to be built. It | :13:03. | :13:06. | |
will more than double the number of beds, and create operating theatres | :13:06. | :13:10. | |
and a critical care unit specifically for children. All | :13:10. | :13:20. | |
warmly welcomed, but overdue. It is fair to say you would have liked | :13:20. | :13:26. | |
this day to have come sooner? many years ago. Fundraising for the | :13:26. | :13:30. | |
first part of the hospital began back in 2000. It opened its doors | :13:30. | :13:34. | |
to the first patients five years later. But there then followed | :13:34. | :13:36. | |
years of uncertainty and funding rows over part two, finally | :13:36. | :13:43. | |
resolved by a deal signed off in 2008. That's meant the final | :13:44. | :13:46. | |
completion date has slipped several times and is now pencilled in for | :13:47. | :13:56. | |
:13:57. | :14:01. | ||
the end of 2015. There have been issues around paediatric special | :14:01. | :14:05. | |
services. We are delighted that has now come to an end and we will | :14:05. | :14:14. | |
shortly be announcing phase two. What was once going to be a �40 | :14:14. | :14:18. | |
million project is now estimated at more than �60 million. The money | :14:18. | :14:21. | |
will be spent helping patients like Amelia and her mum, Lucy. Amelia | :14:21. | :14:26. | |
has epilepsy and has needed several hospital stays. The new wing will | :14:26. | :14:28. | |
include more accommodation for parents, and a new outpatients | :14:28. | :14:38. | |
:14:38. | :14:40. | ||
department. There are so many children in the same position. Some | :14:40. | :14:45. | |
are in a worse position. Having that extra part of a building where | :14:45. | :14:51. | |
you can have more children who will benefit. It is a good idea. As the | :14:51. | :14:53. | |
hospital grows, the shape of services may too. The health | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
minister says fewer children will be treated over the border in | :14:56. | :14:59. | |
England in the future and that could mean some from North Wales | :14:59. | :15:06. | |
travelling to Cardiff. It depends, it is up to consult us to decide | :15:06. | :15:12. | |
where is the best place for patients to have their services. | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
This is a children's hospital for the whole of Wales. The builders | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
are due to start work in January. Here, fingers are crossed there | :15:18. | :15:23. | |
won't be more delays along the way. On tomorrow night's programme, the | :15:23. | :15:27. | |
economy will be taking centre stage. We'll be finding out how the cast | :15:27. | :15:30. | |
of this pantomime in Wrexham are coping during the worst economic | :15:30. | :15:35. | |
crisis in a generation. Their finances, like most people's, are | :15:35. | :15:38. | |
being squeezed by the rising costs of daily essentials like food and | :15:38. | :15:48. | |
:15:48. | :15:49. | ||
fuel. Everything is getting more expensive. By wage is the lowest it | :15:49. | :15:52. | |
has been for a few years. Everyone is feeling the pinch. | :15:52. | :15:55. | |

football team is facing criticism after he said on Twitter he should | :16:13. | :16:18. | |
be the permanent replacement for Gary Speed. Raymond Verheijen | :16:18. | :16:22. | |
claims it was Speed's wish that he and Osian Roberts should coach the | :16:22. | :16:27. | |
side in the next World Cup qualifying campaign. But tonight, | :16:27. | :16:29. | |
one of Speed's former team-mates says the comments are selfish and | :16:29. | :16:39. | |
:16:39. | :16:43. | ||
badly timed, just days after his Gary Speed was the figurehead of | :16:43. | :16:49. | |
the recent football revival. Always close by were his assistance. | :16:49. | :16:53. | |
Raymond Verheijen is from the Netherlands and has worked | :16:53. | :16:58. | |
previously for his home country, Russia and Australia. He was | :16:58. | :17:02. | |
appointed by Gary Speed back in February. Following the death of | :17:02. | :17:06. | |
the Wales manager, Raymond Verheijen claims he would have | :17:06. | :17:16. | |
:17:16. | :17:30. | ||
wanted him to carry on with the He had hoped the matter would be | :17:30. | :17:33. | |
finalised in a meeting today but they have since confirmed the issue | :17:34. | :17:39. | |
was not discussed. Some see the public nature of his Commons as | :17:39. | :17:46. | |
ill-judged and poorly timed. It is just over two weeks since we last | :17:46. | :17:56. | |

Claire is in Swansea for us tonight. Good evening. Welcome to the | :18:51. | :18:57. | |
Liberty Stadium, home of Swansea City Football Club. Inside tonight | :18:57. | :19:02. | |
because the stage is set for this year's Sports personality of the | :19:02. | :19:11. | |
Year award. This is what they're all after. A few famous names on | :19:12. | :19:20. | |

are many awards happening tonight but that the lifetime achievement | :20:05. | :20:10. | |
Award, an award for young sports people and the team award. People | :20:10. | :20:16. | |
are wondering whether they have won but one man who has already won his | :20:16. | :20:24. | |
award is Gareth. I went and surprised you last week. Unsung | :20:24. | :20:31. | |
hero. You have had the trophy for just under a week. Has it sank in? | :20:31. | :20:37. | |
It has. I feel very lucky and privileged to accept the award. | :20:37. | :20:41. | |
There are hundreds of people up and down the country or do a fantastic | :20:41. | :20:50. | |
jobs with grassroots sports. In my year as captain, it means ever so | :20:50. | :20:54. | |
much. What does it mean for the club to win it? It is excellent for | :20:54. | :20:59. | |
the club. It raises the profile of our golf club. For the juniors to | :20:59. | :21:04. | |
see me win an award, it inspires them to realise they can win | :21:04. | :21:07. | |
anything if they really want to. What has been the reaction from | :21:07. | :21:12. | |
family and friends? There have been fantastic. A very supportive. I | :21:12. | :21:18. | |
have had so many messages of support and congratulations. He may | :21:19. | :21:25. | |
have a few at becoming young sports people. They are potential stars of | :21:25. | :21:32. | |
the future. If we keep up the hard work and keep practising, I am sure | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
they can aspire to be anything. are you looking forward to seeing | :21:36. | :21:41. | |
tonight? I would like to see Dai Greene. He will probably be my | :21:41. | :21:49. | |
favourite. Hold on to the trophy. This is the trophy that Garath and | :21:49. | :21:55. | |
I have been eyeing up. The ceremony is live on Radio Wales at 7:30pm. | :21:55. | :22:01. | |

the National stage was poetry in Singing has always been an | :22:38. | :22:42. | |
important part of the game. Now the link between rugby and art has been | :22:42. | :22:46. | |
made official. Owen Sheers was today unveiled as the first WRU | :22:46. | :22:49. | |
artist in residence, funded by a �10,000 bursary from the Arts | :22:49. | :22:52. | |
Council of Wales His recent works include The Passion Play in Port | :22:52. | :22:55. | |
Talbot and the World War II film Resistance, but now he's turning | :22:55. | :23:05. | |
:23:05. | :23:10. | ||
his hand to capturing the highs and lows of Welsh rugby. Obviously, the | :23:10. | :23:16. | |
worst public moments are here in big games, six Nations games. I am | :23:16. | :23:21. | |
fascinated with all the work that goes into those games. The training, | :23:21. | :23:26. | |
the psychologists, the fitness coaches. There is an incredible | :23:26. | :23:30. | |
ever-widening circle of people who put into the game. The team are | :23:30. | :23:40. | |
looking forward to welcoming him. jokingly said we look forward to | :23:40. | :23:49. | |
seeing him holding a tackle back in training. It to be interesting to | :23:49. | :23:53. | |
see what fruits the next year will bear. For fans, is the role | :23:53. | :24:03. | |
:24:03. | :24:04. | ||
anything to write home about? Laughter and sadness. Anything that | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
encapsulates this sense of pride is a good idea. The new writer in | :24:08. | :24:11. | |
residence doesn't actually know what he'll write. It could be | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
poetry or even fiction. He'll just hope there's plenty to inspire him | :24:14. | :24:17. | |
over the next year. The word on the weather is | :24:17. | :24:24. | |
distinctly stormy with more on the Winter is going to throw everything | :24:24. | :24:31. | |
at us this week. Heavy rain, gales, blustery showers and even some snow. | :24:31. | :24:34. | |
The Met office has a few warnings in force including one for heavy | :24:34. | :24:39. | |
rain this evening. 20 to 50mm, one to two inches of rain with a risk | :24:39. | :24:43. | |
of localised flooding. Poor driving conditions as well. So wet and | :24:43. | :24:47. | |
windy this evening. Strong to gale force winds. Overnight the rain | :24:47. | :24:50. | |
will clear to scattered showers. The wind easing a little with | :24:50. | :24:52. | |
temperatures staying above freezing. So tomorrow, morning ice is not | :24:52. | :24:57. | |
expected but it will feel cold and windy. Parts of the north will | :24:57. | :25:01. | |
start dry and bright but there will be showers around. Some of the | :25:01. | :25:06. | |
showers heavy and wintry. Falling as rain, hail, sleet and snow. You | :25:06. | :25:12. | |
may hear thunder as well. So a mixture of sunny intervals and | :25:12. | :25:15. | |
wintry showers tomorrow. Most of the snow on ground above 100 metres | :25:15. | :25:18. | |
or 300 feet. The snow will settle in places, especially on some hills | :25:19. | :25:21. | |
and mountains, where five to 10cm is possible but a dusting is | :25:22. | :25:31. | |
possible even on low ground. There is a snow warning in force. It's a | :25:31. | :25:34. | |
yellow one which means it's not expected to have a big impact. And | :25:34. | :25:36. | |
widespread disruption is unlikely. Mind you it will be cold. | :25:36. | :25:39. | |
Temperatures tomorrow no higher than seven Celsius and feeling | :25:39. | :25:42. | |
colder in the wind. The wind fresh to strong. Gale force on some | :25:42. | :25:49. | |
coasts and hills with gusts around 60mph. Tomorrow night, further | :25:49. | :25:53. | |
wintry showers. Some heavy with hail, sleet and snow. Again most of | :25:53. | :25:56. | |
the snow on higher ground and with temperatures inland close to | :25:56. | :26:01. | |
freezing. There is a risk of ice. Wednesday will bring a mixture of | :26:01. | :26:04. | |
sunshine and wintry showers. Less windy but still breezy and feeling | :26:04. | :26:08. | |
chilly. Beyond that, our attention turns to the Atlantic. We're | :26:08. | :26:11. | |
watching a developing area of low pressure which is heading our way | :26:11. | :26:13. | |
bringing a risk of more stormy weather later on Thursday and | :26:14. | :26:19. | |
Friday. At the moment, though, there is some uncertainty about the | :26:19. | :26:22. | |
exact track the storm will take and consequently which part of the UK | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
will be worst hit. So it would be worth keeping a close eye on the | :26:26. | :26:31. | |
forecast over the next few days. In the meantime, heavy rain tonight | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
will clear leaving a cold and windy day tomorrow with wintry showers. | :26:34. | :26:38. | |
Some snow in places. If you're on the move, you can keep up to date | :26:38. | :26:41. | |
with the latest traffic and travel news on Radio Wales, Radio Cymru | :26:41. | :26:45. | |

the Christmas pictures will cheer you up. The first by Anna Conti | :26:48. | :26:50. | |
