Welcome to Wales Today. Our top stories: Sleeping rough. The number

:00:03.:00:06.

of homeless people rises significantly and there's a warning

:00:06.:00:16.
:00:16.:00:26.

Back in charge. Malcolm Walker buys back the Flintshire frozen food

:00:26.:00:32.

company, Iceland, in a �1.5 billion. The last training exercise for

:00:32.:00:36.

hundreds of Welsh soldiers heading to Afghanistan.

:00:36.:00:39.

Also tonight: Another bank disappears from the high street

:00:39.:00:48.

with more people having to do without their local branch. What do

:00:48.:00:55.

they expect will people like me to do. I don't have a car.

:00:55.:00:58.

Getting up close with the Triple Crown at George North's old school,

:00:58.:01:08.
:01:08.:01:09.

now it's Italy at the Millennium Stadium.

:01:09.:01:15.

I am live with the Italian team on the eve of the big match. Nobody is

:01:15.:01:19.

giving them much chance since Wales, not even their own captain.

:01:19.:01:22.

Good evening. The number of homeless people in Wales is up by

:01:22.:01:29.

11%. Figures obtained by BBC Wales show more than 15,000 people sought

:01:29.:01:31.

help from councils last year. Swansea had the highest number of

:01:31.:01:33.

people who needed emergency accommodation. The Welsh Government

:01:33.:01:38.

has commissioned a review into the problem. Caroline Evans reports.

:01:38.:01:43.

Gavin is 32. He's been homeless for six months after a family breakdown.

:01:43.:01:53.

He's from maesteg but left the town and moved to Swansea. The town I am

:01:53.:01:59.

originally from is a very small town and a five was to be homeless

:01:59.:02:06.

there, there is nothing there, no facilities, no soup kitchens and

:02:06.:02:10.

nowhere to go for help. Swansea has more homeless people than any other

:02:10.:02:13.

part of Wales, but Gavin is one of a growing number across the country.

:02:13.:02:17.

Figures obtained by BBC Wales show that last year 18 out of our 22

:02:17.:02:20.

councils saw an increase in the number of people turning to them

:02:20.:02:30.
:02:30.:02:32.

for help. It is clearly the fact that the economic downturn has had

:02:32.:02:36.

an effect. People are struggling to pay their rent and mortgage. That

:02:36.:02:43.

is a factor but we also have a lack of affordable homes in Wales. The

:02:43.:02:52.

real worry is that the welfare benefit cuts and housing benefit

:02:52.:02:55.

cuts have not started to bite. Currently, the system here

:02:55.:02:58.

prioritises certain groups of homeless people, and the help

:02:58.:03:01.

available has mainly been to provide them with social housing.

:03:01.:03:04.

In Scotland, they've stopped doing it that way and give equal priority

:03:04.:03:10.

to all, but Scotland has more social housing. Dr Peter Mackie,

:03:10.:03:12.

whose leading a review of homelessness for the Welsh

:03:12.:03:21.

Government, says Wales must look to new approaches. It is a bit of an

:03:21.:03:25.

all-or-nothing system. If you fall into the one of depravity troops,

:03:25.:03:29.

you get access to social housing but if you don't fall into one of

:03:29.:03:37.

those groups, you don't get any meaningful assistance. What the

:03:37.:03:43.

review seems to be suggesting is that we have a shift towards more

:03:43.:03:48.

preventative work and that would be the best way forward. That would

:03:48.:03:51.

reduce the number of people who need housing That could mean help

:03:51.:03:54.

with paying the mortgage or rent or placing more people in the private

:03:55.:03:58.

rented sector. In Swansea at Christmas, churches opened their

:03:58.:04:08.
:04:08.:04:12.

door to provide temporary shelter for homeless people. The shelter

:04:12.:04:17.

was due to close on 29th February but be closed on the 20th because

:04:17.:04:20.

the rough sleepers that would have accessed the shelter when not in

:04:21.:04:30.
:04:31.:04:32.

need any more, they had found accommodation. In March, there have

:04:32.:04:36.

been no deaths on the streets in Swansea this winter which is

:04:36.:04:39.

incredible. Today, there are more than 90,000 people on social

:04:40.:04:42.

housing waiting lists. The Welsh Government says it's committed to

:04:42.:04:47.

tackling the issue. Its already preparing a housing bill and will

:04:47.:04:49.

put details out for consultation next spring.

:04:49.:04:52.

The second part of a series looking at the problem of homelessness will

:04:52.:04:58.

be on BBC 1 Wales next Monday at 10:35pm.

:04:58.:05:01.

The founder of food chain, Iceland, has bought back the company in a

:05:01.:05:07.

�1.5 billion deal. Malcolm Walker set up the firm in 1970. More than

:05:07.:05:10.

40 years on, he's back at the helm. Our business correspondent, Nick

:05:10.:05:14.

Servini, joins us now. Tell us a bit about the history of this

:05:14.:05:24.
:05:24.:05:27.

company. Malcolm Walker invested �30 in his first Iceland store and

:05:27.:05:34.

built the business up. Things took a dramatic twist in 2001 when he

:05:34.:05:39.

was sacked from the company. He had sold �30 million worth of shares

:05:39.:05:44.

shortly before a profits warning by the company. He was investigated by

:05:44.:05:50.

the Serious Fraud Office. Four years later, he was cleared.

:05:50.:05:54.

Iceland in the meantime had hit difficulties and play it -- share

:05:54.:05:58.

prices plummeted. He was asked back to rescue the company and that is

:05:58.:06:04.

what he did. He axed 400 staff from the headquarters in Flintshire and

:06:05.:06:08.

brought the company back to basics. Today, it is one of the most

:06:08.:06:16.

successful retailers on the British high street. Is it a good deal for

:06:16.:06:22.

the company? The I think so. This company had been owned by a group

:06:22.:06:28.

of Icelandic in Leicester's which went bust. -- investors. Malcolm

:06:28.:06:35.

Walker says he has no plans to retire and his famously known as a

:06:35.:06:45.
:06:45.:06:46.

maverick retailer. Banks and financiers taking deadly seriously

:06:46.:06:51.

because they have funded this deal worth �1.5 billion. Away from

:06:51.:06:58.

Iceland, another big name is talking about inward investment.

:06:58.:07:01.

certain number of reports talking recently about the lack of success

:07:01.:07:09.

was as sad and attracting foreign owned companies to Wales. Today, we

:07:09.:07:14.

heard from the former chair of the Welsh Development Agency and in

:07:14.:07:17.

those reports they talked openly that there was still value in the

:07:17.:07:21.

brand of the Welsh Development Agency seven years after it had

:07:21.:07:27.

been abolished. We are fairly used to X figures talking about bringing

:07:27.:07:30.

back the watch to the London agency but interestingly, at this is what

:07:30.:07:39.

he had to say today. You can't go back. Much as I understand people's

:07:39.:07:44.

hankering for the past and the Welsh Development Agency was in its

:07:44.:07:48.

ways successful. But we are where we are and we must build on what we

:07:48.:07:52.

got. But we must do it professionally and execute

:07:52.:07:57.

everything in the most professional way. Finally, he did talk and was

:07:57.:08:01.

critical about the lack of clarity and accountability on this issue

:08:01.:08:06.

and said that an external panel of experts should be brought in to

:08:06.:08:09.

advise the last government on attracting foreign owned companies

:08:09.:08:13.

into Wales. Welsh troops are making their final

:08:13.:08:17.

preparations ahead of a deployment to Afghanistan. They've been

:08:17.:08:19.

training with Third Battalion, The Yorkshire Regiment, who suffered

:08:19.:08:22.

losses in the country just three days ago. The combined force is

:08:22.:08:24.

being put through its paces on Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire.

:08:24.:08:30.

Jordan Davies has more. The final exercise for soldiers

:08:30.:08:33.

from 1st Battalion the Royal Welsh and 1st Battalion Welsh Guards as

:08:33.:08:39.

they prepare for a tour of duty in Afghanistan. They're under no

:08:39.:08:43.

illusions as to the risks involved in their mission. On Tuesday, six

:08:43.:08:46.

British soldiers were killed when their armoured vehicle was hit by a

:08:46.:08:56.
:08:56.:08:59.

Taliban bomb. Obviously, it is a great tragedy and a great loss but

:08:59.:09:03.

it is the same as when the first person died out there. We still

:09:03.:09:07.

have to get on with our jobs. Welsh regiments are part of a wider

:09:07.:09:10.

fighting force, made up of units across the British Army who are

:09:10.:09:14.

about to launch a new phase in the Afghan campaign. Their task will be

:09:14.:09:16.

to support the ongoing security and reconstruction effort in Helmand

:09:16.:09:21.

Province, one of the most dangerous parts of Afghanistan. But next year,

:09:21.:09:25.

this effort is expected to come to an end when most of the 9,500

:09:25.:09:33.

British troops are expected to be withdrawn. My friends and family

:09:33.:09:38.

are quite used to it now. I have been in the Army for the six years.

:09:38.:09:41.

I love back home with my grandmother and she is not too

:09:41.:09:47.

happy but they have to get on with it. 1st the Queen's Dragoon guards,

:09:47.:09:50.

known as the Welsh Cavalry, will be returning from Afghanistan in the

:09:50.:09:52.

next few weeks. As one regiment returns, another prepares to leave,

:09:52.:09:56.

and until the order is given, these men and women will carry out this

:09:56.:10:01.

difficult task, which still carries enormous dangers.

:10:01.:10:09.

You're watching Wales Today. Still ahead. For the first time in Wales,

:10:09.:10:13.

safety courses are being run for these mobility scooters. Find out

:10:13.:10:17.

what it involves later. And Italy have no chance of winning,

:10:17.:10:19.

according to the Italian captain himself. They've arrived ahead of

:10:19.:10:29.
:10:29.:10:30.

A rise in the number of bank closures has left more than 20

:10:30.:10:33.

communities across the country without any bank at all. That's

:10:33.:10:36.

according to the pressure group Campaign for Community Banking.

:10:36.:10:39.

Figures seen by Wales Today show nearly 50 Welsh towns and villages

:10:39.:10:44.

have only one branch left. But the banks say many of our smaller

:10:44.:10:51.

branches are simply underused. Carwyn Jones reports.

:10:51.:10:54.

Presteigne in Powys. Once the county town of Radnorshire, now,

:10:54.:11:00.

the latest community in Wales to lose its bank. This branch of HSBC

:11:00.:11:04.

closed today. The bank says this is one of its worst performing

:11:04.:11:08.

branches in the UK. But many people here are worried about how they'll

:11:08.:11:17.

now do their banking. I have not got a car. Account get to the

:11:17.:11:22.

nearest place we can go. I do all my business here. My pension is

:11:22.:11:27.

paid in the year, I came a bills and my rent. According to figures

:11:27.:11:29.

published by the pressure group Campaign for Community Banking,

:11:29.:11:32.

Presteigne joins a growing number of communities in Wales that have

:11:32.:11:35.

lost their local bank. There are 21 towns and villages which used to

:11:35.:11:39.

have a bank, but are now left with no banking services at all, and a

:11:39.:11:45.

further 47 now have just one bank remaining. The body which

:11:45.:11:47.

represents UK banks says it's increasingly difficult to keep

:11:47.:11:57.

branches open, when more of us are choosing to go online. Half of us

:11:57.:12:02.

actually use the computer or the telephone to access our accounts.

:12:02.:12:10.

Apart from that, there are cash machines which are free to use and

:12:10.:12:14.

you can do all sorts of things through those. Many of them away

:12:14.:12:18.

from branches as well. Someone who does need to use their local bank

:12:18.:12:21.

every day is Janet Jones. She runs an estate agents in Blaenavon and

:12:21.:12:25.

uses the till services at the town's HSBC, just round the corner.

:12:25.:12:28.

But in a few weeks' time, this branch is due to close, leaving the

:12:28.:12:37.

town without a bank. If people want to get cash, we can they go? It

:12:37.:12:41.

will have an effect on the amount of trade that comes into the town

:12:41.:12:46.

because without the bank, if people have to go to do their banking out

:12:46.:12:51.

of town they will do their shopping out of town. HSBC says it regrets

:12:51.:12:54.

having to close its branch in Blaenavon, but over the last few

:12:54.:12:56.

years, the numbers of customers using it have fallen dramatically,

:12:56.:13:00.

so it's not viable to keep it open any longer. But some MPs think

:13:00.:13:03.

that's just not good enough and banks have a duty to keep smaller

:13:03.:13:05.

branches open, particularly when the Treasury has supported them

:13:05.:13:11.

through the credit crisis. these bands have had some

:13:11.:13:14.

government assistance. It may not be directly but in terms of

:13:14.:13:18.

quantity of easing, the government has been able to maintain liquidity

:13:18.:13:22.

in the system which has allowed these banks to survive. There's

:13:22.:13:24.

little doubt our banking habits have changed over the last ten

:13:24.:13:27.

years. Many of us find it more convenient to bank online rather

:13:27.:13:31.

than pop into our local branch. But there are plenty of customers who

:13:31.:13:34.

say they still rely on the services provided by the bank on their

:13:34.:13:43.

doorstep. Just how long those banks An inquest has heard a man was

:13:43.:13:46.

found dead in his car the day after his wife's business was shown on

:13:46.:13:49.

BBC Wales' X-Ray programme. Complaints about La Belle Bridal

:13:49.:13:53.

Wear were featured in October last year. The coroner said it appeared

:13:53.:13:56.

the programme had deeply troubled James Alan Edwards, and recorded a

:13:56.:14:00.

verdict of suicide. A BBC Wales spokesperson says the programme

:14:00.:14:09.

focussed solely on Mrs Edwards' business. They express condolences

:14:09.:14:12.

to the family. Prison service officials say

:14:12.:14:14.

they've eased restrictions which led to a Welsh-speaking inmate

:14:14.:14:17.

being told to speak English during phone calls. Martin Tate was told

:14:17.:14:21.

he had to give 48 hours notice to speak Welsh to his relatives in

:14:21.:14:26.

Caernarfon. He's serving a sentence at a prison on Teesside for vehicle

:14:26.:14:31.

theft. For the first time here, a safety

:14:31.:14:35.

course for people using mobility scooters has started. Up to 150

:14:35.:14:38.

people in the UK have been injured or even killed in accidents

:14:38.:14:42.

involving them. Here's Matt Murray. For 91-year-old Don Flack from

:14:42.:14:45.

Radyr in Cardiff his mobility scooter means he has his

:14:45.:14:55.

independence and his freedom. be able to get around to see my

:14:55.:14:59.

friends, the shops and the surgery and the garden centre. Don's only

:14:59.:15:02.

just bought his scooter. You don't need any training to operate them

:15:02.:15:05.

but he's decided to take advantage of this new safety scheme run by

:15:05.:15:08.

Cardiff Council. It's a course which tests scooter skills. It's

:15:08.:15:12.

not just about how best to operate them on our streets but also in our

:15:12.:15:20.

shops. ImagineSainsbury's or Tesco doing a shock by anyone to

:15:20.:15:25.

manoeuvre on their shopping There's also a call for more of these

:15:25.:15:33.

courses as many feel these scooters are danger to pedestrians. These

:15:33.:15:36.

are electrics of the assignment. Today uses they are seen as a

:15:36.:15:40.

lifeline to the outside world but there are many that as these can

:15:40.:15:44.

reach up to eight mph the error danger and there has on the

:15:44.:15:48.

pavement as people can't hear them coming. In the training course we

:15:48.:15:58.
:15:58.:16:03.

will advocate the use the horn that to tell the pedestrians. This is

:16:03.:16:10.

where the training comes in. It is crucial for them. This is the first

:16:10.:16:20.

safety caused in Wales. Streets.$$NEWLINE It's home to some

:16:20.:16:23.

of our most popular dramas. On Monday night's programme we'll be

:16:23.:16:27.

having a behind the scenes tour of In Cardiff Bay where Casualty and

:16:28.:16:33.

Upstairs Downstairs is made. Sport now. Ashleigh is at the

:16:33.:16:36.

Italian team hotel tonight ahead of another big weekend in the Six

:16:36.:16:39.

Nations. Good evening. We're in the opposition camp tonight. This is

:16:39.:16:42.

where Italy are staying, just round the corner from the Millennium

:16:42.:16:45.

Stadium. And here in the bar there's only one topic of

:16:45.:16:47.

conversation - tomorrow's big match between Wales and Italy. Now most

:16:47.:16:50.

people think Italy will be blown away, like the froth off a

:16:50.:16:53.

cappuccino. But Wales are putting pressure on themselves to make sure

:16:53.:16:56.

that on Saturday night they'll still be in contention for a Grand

:16:56.:17:05.

Slam. There will be one team in it. His in his moment I don't think we

:17:05.:17:10.

can beat Wales because they are playing fantastic rugby. Going to

:17:10.:17:13.

Cardiff to win against this team is probably something impossible for

:17:13.:17:18.

us. If Wales are confident and with good reason but this is not a game

:17:18.:17:26.

without pressure. If the only thing worse about losing their game next

:17:26.:17:29.

weekend is throwing it away tomorrow. We should win the game

:17:29.:17:32.

was up I would hate to think what the reaction would be in Wales if

:17:32.:17:36.

we did not win the game. We are under that pressure to perform.

:17:36.:17:41.

Italy have never won at the Millennium Stadium. Defeats by 20

:17:41.:17:48.

or 30 points have been the norm. Except for 2006. Italy help the

:17:48.:17:55.

reigning Grand Slam champions to an 18-18 draw. Few can see anything

:17:55.:18:00.

similar happening tomorrow. Gethin Jenkins has led Wales three times

:18:00.:18:05.

before and never won. He is hoping, even expecting, to break his duck

:18:05.:18:11.

tomorrow. Tours novel make his own bit of history. He will become the

:18:11.:18:21.
:18:21.:18:23.

first teenager to win 20 international caps. The pupils of

:18:23.:18:29.

his old school got their hands on the Triple Crown. They had no doubt

:18:29.:18:35.

about the result against Italy. is tricky but we can manage it.

:18:35.:18:42.

Excited. They pulled off a win over France last year. Popping by his

:18:42.:18:49.

old school, George's brother Josh. It is weird, it is very strange. 2

:18:49.:18:54.

us he is still George. He was home of the weekend and his girlfriend

:18:54.:19:00.

is doing cycling but they have not changed at all. There is another

:19:00.:19:04.

reason why complacency will not be a problem for Wales. Competition

:19:04.:19:09.

for places. Every player needs to put his hand up for selection for

:19:09.:19:13.

next Saturday's grounds are decided against France. There is a match to

:19:13.:19:19.

be when against Italy but a coach to impress. Wales are still after

:19:19.:19:23.

that ground Slam. You can see in the background some of the Italy

:19:23.:19:30.

team have come down to order a drink. They're getting rid of some

:19:30.:19:34.

of the pre-match nerves. Let's talk to Moreno Molla who is going to be

:19:34.:19:41.

the touchline reporter for Italian television. Were you surprised to

:19:41.:19:45.

hear Sergio Parisse saying it was impossible for Italy to win?

:19:45.:19:52.

surprised. Almost nobody in Italy is giving us a chance to win. They

:19:52.:19:56.

have won Theatre of three but last year before the match against

:19:56.:20:02.

France, we said exactly the same words. Who knows? It to the's

:20:02.:20:11.

record against Wales is not that bad. -- Italy's record. It Ceri

:20:11.:20:21.
:20:21.:20:25.

This is a new team not because of the players but because of the

:20:25.:20:29.

philosophy that coaches have brought in. Sometimes that happens.

:20:29.:20:38.

We had a chance against England and we did not exploit it. A lot of the

:20:38.:20:42.

Italian players will play against Welsh players week-in, week-out and

:20:42.:20:48.

the PRO12. It's that helpful? It has been important first to play

:20:48.:20:52.

weekend, week out which was more important than the Italian

:20:52.:21:00.

championship. We need to see what our chances are in the the Heineken

:21:00.:21:09.

Cup was up to a diesel had a draw game against the Ospreys. -- at

:21:09.:21:15.

Treviso. I think these at the steps we have to look at to see how will

:21:15.:21:22.

rugby in Italy is growing. Well, that's the Italian

:21:22.:21:26.

perspective. Time for the Welsh view. Scrum V Live is coming from

:21:26.:21:29.

Colwyn Bay this evening where Wales under-20s are playing Italy. And

:21:29.:21:32.

presenter Ross Harries has someone with him who knows all about

is the Triple Crown. We pinched it! It was doing the rounds here. It

Shanklin. The Italy game tomorrow, the bookies are making way as

:22:07.:22:11.

overwhelming favourites. You have been the losers twice against Italy.

:22:11.:22:17.

It is not a foregone conclusion. It is not impossible for Italy to win

:22:17.:22:22.

but it is unlikely. Wales are so good at the moment. They are far

:22:22.:22:30.

better prepared. The confidence they have, I think they're going to

:22:30.:22:35.

win well tomorrow. By Max said today he said it was virtually

impossible for it to meet again. -- Sergio Parisse said. Italy haven't

they are strong, they are well prepared. Under-20s playing tonight.

George North is still eligible to play for them! It is the next step

:23:03.:23:11.

to international rugby. If they have a taste for it at this level,

:23:11.:23:20.

they could be full internationals. Good stuff. Enjoy the game. That

:23:20.:23:24.

game is just after Wales Today comes off the air. It is over on

Olympic news. David Davies qualified fastest for tomorrow's

:24:07.:24:14.

I did get us when they qualified but so was unhappy with them. I

have had their bad head. I couldn't believe it.

Onto football and Swansea City face the Premier League leaders this

first Premier League match back in August. A few months on, we will be

:24:41.:24:46.

going for the return game. Our mentality has matured and hopefully

:24:46.:24:52.

that will give us an opportunity. We know what play against the top

:24:52.:25:00.

team with top players means. Two points at the top of the bleak. We

:25:00.:25:03.

have no fear. Elsewhere tomorrow, Cardiff City

look to end a run of three league matches without a win when they

forecast. Behnaz is outside the stadium tonight. Am I right in

:26:03.:26:07.

Good evening. I want to bring you some good news. Spring like weather

:26:08.:26:14.

gradually building in through the weekend. It will certainly feel

:26:14.:26:18.

warmer but by no means is it going to be wall to wall sunshine. So,

:26:18.:26:20.

over the next few days the temperatures will creep up

:26:20.:26:22.

gradually. The satellite picture showering a swirl of cloud

:26:23.:26:25.

blanketing the country. Mist, hill fog and coastal fog developing

:26:25.:26:30.

through the night. A damp and drizzly night to come but very much

:26:30.:26:35.

on the mild side. The temperatures 8-11C with very light winds. The

pressure chart for tomorrow showing the area of high pressure centred

with bright spells top temperature 13C in the light winds feeling

:26:48.:26:53.

pleasant. The day will start on a misty and murky note. All that will

lift to leave a better afternoon. The best of the sunshine across the

:26:58.:27:01.

north and east. We hang on to the cloud for parts of Pembrokeshire

:27:01.:27:05.

right up to Anglesey. Top temperatures 14C. It will feel

:27:05.:27:08.

pleasant in the sunshine and light winds. Tomorrow night much more of
