Welcome to Wales Today. Our top story. Four people arrested in an

:00:00.:00:10.

investigation into slavery. 100 officers, some of them armed, raid

:00:10.:00:13.

properties in Cardiff, Newport and Monmouthshire. Here at this farm

:00:13.:00:21.

outside Cardiff, an Eastern European man is taken to hospital, and police

:00:22.:00:25.

say they're now searching for a body.

:00:25.:00:41.

Our other headlines tonight, Ed Miliband praises Labour's handling

:00:41.:00:45.

of the NHS in Wales, but patients tell us how waiting lists have

:00:45.:00:55.

nearly doubled. The problem is the heart valves. I had one replaced and

:00:55.:01:07.

one repaired. I think the waiting is a bit much really. Persecuted for

:01:07.:01:10.

their race, religion, disability, or sexual orientation. Why hate crime

:01:10.:01:14.

is still a daily reality for people like Samantha. The Hollyhead tug

:01:14.:01:17.

boat playing its part in the operation to refloat the Costa

:01:17.:01:23.

Concordia. Good evening. In tonight's sport, after their mixed

:01:23.:01:25.

fortunes in the Premier League, Cardiff City and holders Swansea

:01:25.:01:28.

City now turn their attention to the Capital One Cup.

:01:29.:01:36.

Good evening. Four people have been arrested in dawn raids and police

:01:36.:01:42.

say they are searching for a body, as part of an investigation into

:01:42.:01:46.

slavery. More than 100 police officers, some armed, were involved

:01:46.:01:49.

in the raids across three properties in Cardiff, Newport and

:01:49.:01:53.

Monmouthshire. Detectives say a search is underway for a body at a

:01:53.:01:59.

farm near Peterstone Wentloog. Our reporter, Caroline Evans, is there

:01:59.:02:05.

for us tonight. Thank you. Specialist police

:02:05.:02:09.

officers and diggers are still here working on intelligence that

:02:09.:02:13.

suggests a person may be buried here. Police say their inquiry began

:02:13.:02:20.

earlier this year after a 43-year-old man who'd been missing

:02:20.:02:23.

for 13 years was found by police in the area. Here's Nick Palit.

:02:23.:02:40.

Early this morning, Gwent Police carried out a series of coordinated

:02:40.:02:44.

raids in Cardiff, Monmouthshire and that this farm at Peterstone

:02:44.:02:47.

Wentlooge on the coastal road between Newport and Cardiff. More

:02:47.:02:52.

than 100 officers have been involved in the operation including armed and

:02:52.:02:56.

air support personnel. Police say the raids were in relation to

:02:56.:03:01.

allegations of slavery. Four people are in custody. There is a

:03:01.:03:04.

66-year-old man and a 42-year-old man and a 36-year-old man from

:03:04.:03:09.

Cardiff and a 42-year-old woman. They are in custody and will be

:03:09.:03:13.

helping us with our enquiries. We have also found a man of Eastern

:03:13.:03:17.

European origin at the site who has been taken to a place of safety to

:03:17.:03:21.

have his health assessed. This morning 's raid was a joint

:03:21.:03:29.

operation. In addition to the suspected offences relating to

:03:29.:03:32.

slavery and servitude, Gwent Police say they also have intelligence that

:03:32.:03:33.

suggests a body may be buried say they also have intelligence that

:03:33.:03:40.

somewhere on this site. A forensic archaeologist has been brought in to

:03:40.:03:44.

help with the investigation. The investigation started earlier

:03:44.:03:49.

this year after a 43-year-old man who had been missing for more than a

:03:49.:03:52.

decade was found by police in the area. Six months ago, a 43-year-old

:03:52.:03:57.

man was found living in poor conditions. That started this

:03:57.:04:03.

operation. That man had been missing for some time. 13 years. In the

:04:03.:04:12.

small hamlet of Peterstone Wentlooge, there was incredulity at

:04:12.:04:17.

today's events. It is quite a worry that something

:04:17.:04:19.

like that might be going on in the It is quite a worry that something

:04:19.:04:23.

village where you are living. It is quite worrying because slavery is

:04:23.:04:28.

wrong in any aspect. We have never seen anything like this before. I

:04:28.:04:35.

don't know what to make of it all for. Police expect to be carrying

:04:35.:04:41.

out a detailed search of the site for at least three days. They are

:04:41.:04:43.

appealing for members of the public for at least three days. They are

:04:43.:04:48.

with information to come forward. This has been a huge operation so

:04:48.:04:53.

far. It has brought together the serious organised crime agency,

:04:53.:04:58.

several police forces, the UK human trafficking Centre, they told us

:04:58.:05:00.

they are not surprised by this type of allegation and it has involved

:05:00.:05:05.

the British Red Cross who have been giving support to that Eastern

:05:05.:05:09.

European man that was taken from here. They tell us that the

:05:09.:05:13.

practical help from them has included providing food and drinks.

:05:13.:05:18.

Police say his mental and physical condition is now being assessed and

:05:18.:05:22.

his welfare is paramount. In the meantime, they expect to be here at

:05:22.:05:25.

least three days. Waiting lists have lengthened,

:05:25.:05:28.

targets have been missed. But Ed Miliband says the Welsh Government

:05:28.:05:31.

is doing an excellent job running the health service here. The Labour

:05:31.:05:36.

leader has told Wales Today that Westminster spending cuts were

:05:36.:05:39.

responsible for some of the challenges the NHS faces. He's been

:05:39.:05:42.

talking to our parliamentary challenges the NHS faces. He's been

:05:42.:05:52.

correspondent, David Cornock. He is an NHS -- here is an NHS

:05:52.:06:00.

success story. I think they are doing an excellent job because I

:06:00.:06:06.

have been through so much and I have had so many operations during my

:06:06.:06:11.

lifetime, right, I have had 28, different operations, some small,

:06:11.:06:16.

some pretty big, but I am still here at 84. They are managing to keep me

:06:16.:06:19.

some pretty big, but I am still here going, that is all I can say. Other

:06:19.:06:22.

members of this luncheon club in going, that is all I can say. Other

:06:22.:06:24.

Carmarthenshire have had different experiences. This woman is on a

:06:24.:06:32.

waiting list for heart surgery. I would have thought I would have gone

:06:32.:06:36.

sooner. I know there is a waiting list, everyone has a waiting list,

:06:36.:06:42.

but this is getting a bit too much now really. There was more mixed

:06:42.:06:46.

news for the NHS today. At best, outstanding, all too often failing

:06:46.:06:51.

to get the basics right, that is according to a new report by the

:06:51.:06:55.

independent voice of older people. If you going to hospital across the

:06:55.:06:59.

UK, you expect to be safe, your care to be effective and to be treated

:06:59.:07:03.

with compassion and kindness and respect. That goes to the heart of

:07:04.:07:08.

what the NHS is about. I met with the chairs of health boards last

:07:08.:07:11.

week and I made my position very clear. They must now build on the

:07:11.:07:14.

progress and swiftly made sure they get these basics right. Plenty to

:07:14.:07:19.

ponder for Ed Miliband that his party conference where he hailed

:07:19.:07:22.

Carwyn Jones is a brilliant First Minister. But the numbers waiting

:07:22.:07:27.

for NHS treatment have almost doubled, targets for Amber Lynn 's

:07:27.:07:30.

response times and accident and emergency weights have been missed.

:07:31.:07:40.

-- ambulance response times. Of course, there are challenges in

:07:40.:07:44.

the health service in Wales and they are taken very serious by Carwyn

:07:44.:07:52.

Jones. Don't look to what David Cameron is doing in England because

:07:52.:07:54.

Jones. Don't look to what David that is not working. Have you ever

:07:54.:07:58.

had any conversations with the Welsh health minister about this? I have

:07:58.:08:07.

spoken to Carwyn Jones about this. Do you know who the Welsh Health

:08:07.:08:12.

Minister is? I'm not getting into that. Carwyn Jones is dealing with

:08:12.:08:16.

the issues that the Welsh health service faces. David Cameron should

:08:16.:08:21.

really not be offering advice to the health service in Wales. Delegates

:08:21.:08:25.

at this reception could forgive their leader not knowing the Health

:08:25.:08:30.

Minister. It is Mark Drakeford, by the way. Ed Miliband told them they

:08:30.:08:35.

had a big fight on their hands to win the next election. They may be

:08:35.:08:41.

less forgiving if he loses that. Let's talk now to David Cornock.

:08:41.:08:45.

Doesn't Ed Miliband realise he is vulnerable defending the performance

:08:45.:08:51.

of the NHS in Wales? Certainly if you talk to Welsh

:08:51.:08:55.

Labour MPs privately, there is concern about the performance of the

:08:55.:08:58.

NHS. Some have voiced those concerns publicly, notably and fluid. A major

:08:58.:09:05.

study on the effects of hate crime has been published - revealing that

:09:05.:09:08.

almost a third of victims are affected so badly that they've

:09:08.:09:11.

considered moving house to get away from their abusers. She raised

:09:12.:09:13.

considered moving house to get away concerns about the care of her dying

:09:13.:09:15.

husband. And any wider experience of people that have got in touch to

:09:15.:09:17.

share their experience problems within the NHS. Ed Miliband argues

:09:17.:09:21.

that he takes the views seriously and they are taken seriously by

:09:21.:09:24.

Carwyn Jones but one of the challenges facing the NHS spending

:09:24.:09:27.

and you have the cats impose from challenges facing the NHS spending

:09:27.:09:31.

Westminster the problem with that argument is that in England, the UK

:09:31.:09:35.

government has protected NHS spending and there is enough money

:09:35.:09:42.

in the Welsh budget to do the same. It is a decision taken by ministers

:09:42.:09:49.

in Cardiff not to have the same priority, that is what their critics

:09:49.:09:52.

say is one of the reasons for the problems in Wales.

:09:53.:09:57.

Victims of hate crime are targeted because of their race, religion,

:09:57.:09:59.

disability, sexual orientation or transgender identity. Many victims

:09:59.:10:06.

have considered moving house to get away from their abusers. Carl

:10:06.:10:17.

Roberts reports. Carving out a new life for herself.

:10:17.:10:23.

Samantha was born a man but became a woman four years ago. It was then

:10:23.:10:27.

she says that her life changed dramatically. She became a victim of

:10:27.:10:32.

hate crime. Low-level crime like verbal abuse, going to the shop and

:10:32.:10:37.

buying a loaf of bread, the local youths would abuse me. And the wider

:10:37.:10:45.

impact was my family, my young son, I don't take aim at the shop any

:10:45.:10:50.

more, the police over the last two years have done their very best and

:10:50.:10:54.

they have been excellent. However, they feel and other authorities feel

:10:54.:10:58.

that I have to move for my own safety.

:10:58.:11:06.

Today was the official launch of the publication of a study on hate

:11:06.:11:10.

crime. And the result suggests that almost half of the victim knew who

:11:10.:11:17.

had verbally or physically abused them. Some said they would even

:11:17.:11:22.

leave Wales. Those responsible for this research say it is the biggest

:11:22.:11:26.

ever hate crime survey carried out in England and Wales and for many

:11:26.:11:29.

people in Wales, hate crime is a daily reality. Most incidents

:11:29.:11:34.

reported to the police relate to people 's race but this study shows

:11:34.:11:39.

that victims are picked on because of disability, religion, sexual

:11:39.:11:44.

orientation or transgender identity. Different groups suffer hate crimes

:11:44.:11:46.

orientation or transgender identity. very differently. For example,

:11:46.:11:51.

certain groups are more impacted than others. We sound for example

:11:51.:11:57.

that those unemployed those socially excluded, those who have suffered

:11:57.:12:01.

incidents, violent crimes, they are far more likely to be impacted by

:12:01.:12:05.

hate crimes than other groups. We have got to work closely no to raise

:12:05.:12:10.

the profile of hate crime and hopefully stop people from being

:12:10.:12:13.

perpetrators in the future by spreading that work vertically

:12:14.:12:16.

through education. Back on the building site, Samantha says that

:12:16.:12:20.

her workmates aren't aware of the former life as a man but she is

:12:20.:12:24.

speaking out in order to try and make people aware of the damage hate

:12:24.:12:28.

crime can cause. The reason I have not told anybody, I never tell

:12:28.:12:32.

anybody, is the betas of the harassment and be prejudiced against

:12:32.:12:36.

people like myself. -- it is because of the harassment. I am quite

:12:36.:12:39.

nervous of the impact this will have. It is digging up the ground

:12:39.:12:44.

rather than the past that is the focus now she continues to rebuild

:12:44.:12:47.

her life. Plans for a £1 billion pound M4

:12:47.:12:50.

relief road, aimed at cutting congestion around Newport, have gone

:12:50.:12:53.

out to public consultation. It could lead to a new stretch of motorway

:12:53.:12:57.

being built south of Newport, between junction 23 at Magor and

:12:57.:13:00.

junction 29 at Castleton. The consultation is due to last 12

:13:00.:13:03.

weeks. A fire at several factory units in the Rhondda started

:13:03.:13:07.

accidentally. The blaze broke out yesterday at Ridgeway Industrial

:13:07.:13:10.

Estate in Llwynypia, near Tonypandy. 70 firefighters worked to put out

:13:10.:13:13.

the fire, which spread across six businesses.

:13:13.:13:26.

The fire started in the unit at one of the smaller units, and it started

:13:26.:13:31.

accidentally. The investigation went on last night and during today that

:13:31.:13:34.

it has been found that the investigation has revealed that the

:13:34.:13:37.

cause was down to sparks from an angle grinder igniting petroleum

:13:37.:13:43.

vapours from one of the vehicles and that is what was the starting cause

:13:43.:13:46.

of the fire. How much should the BBC pay to play Welsh language music?

:13:46.:13:48.

It's a debate that's raged for years pay to play Welsh language music?

:13:48.:13:51.

between the corporation and musicians' representatives EOS.

:13:51.:13:54.

Today, both sides ended up at a tribunal to settle the matter. Our

:13:54.:13:57.

Arts and Media correspondent, Huw Thomas, has been at Caernarfon Crown

:13:57.:14:00.

Court all day. What's the background to this dispute?

:14:00.:14:10.

Well, for six years now, some Welsh language composers and publishers

:14:10.:14:14.

have been concerned about the amount of money they receive when there

:14:14.:14:18.

music is played on television or radio but it led to some of them

:14:18.:14:22.

forming a loss last year to try and negotiate directly with the BBC for

:14:22.:14:26.

more money every year for the right to play their music. The difference

:14:26.:14:34.

between both sides is vast. EOS want a fee of £1.5 million per year at

:14:34.:14:37.

the BBC is prepared to pay a fee of £1.5 million per year at

:14:37.:14:42.

£100,000. The situation led to the BBC losing the right to play any of

:14:42.:14:45.

the EOS wrapper to play any of the BBC losing the right to play any of

:14:45.:14:47.

EOS repertoire for six weeks at the start of the did reach an agreement

:14:47.:15:03.

-- a temporary agreement. Evidence today has been coming from BBC

:15:03.:15:07.

management and some from the EOS board. There will also be expert

:15:07.:15:11.

witness testimony coming in the next two days. When are we likely to have

:15:11.:15:18.

a final decision? This tribunal will last until Friday and all of that

:15:18.:15:21.

evidence and reams of documentation to get through as well before then.

:15:21.:15:26.

There are three members of the tribunal listening to all of this

:15:26.:15:27.

and they will then have to go away, tribunal listening to all of this

:15:27.:15:31.

review what they have heard and come up with their own recommendation for

:15:31.:15:36.

that fee for how much the BBC should pay to access the repertoire of EOS

:15:36.:15:45.

music. That is likely to be a few weeks after the tribunal process.

:15:45.:15:47.

Much more to come before 7pm. Some local authorities may have run out

:15:47.:15:51.

of puff to fund music teaching. We'll hear how our brass bands have

:15:51.:15:54.

filled the silences. And the agony and the ecstasy. Mixed

:15:54.:16:02.

fortunes for Cardiff and Swansea in the Premier League. Both now turn

:16:03.:16:07.

their attention to the League Cup. The salvage operation on the Costa

:16:07.:16:10.

Concordia cruise ship captured world wide media interest. A Welsh company

:16:10.:16:15.

has been playing a key role in the work. A tug called the Afon Cefni is

:16:15.:16:20.

one of the support vessels for the operation which is still going on

:16:20.:16:25.

off the Italian Coast. The vessel is operated by Holyhead Towing and

:16:25.:16:28.

Roger Pinney has been to the company's headquarters to find out

:16:28.:16:34.

more. From dawn till dusk and through the

:16:34.:16:38.

night they worked, time-lapse photography speeding up a plane free

:16:38.:16:43.

slow operation. For more than a year and a half, the Costa Concordia had

:16:43.:16:46.

lain on her side of the Costa Concordia had lain on her side after

:16:46.:16:48.

lain on her side of the Costa running aground. 32 people died. And

:16:48.:16:52.

central to it all, the Afon Cefni, a workhorse keeping the whole

:16:52.:16:55.

operation supplied with staff and materials. But at the headquarters,

:16:56.:17:02.

they are remarkably sanguine about it all. It is all in a days work.

:17:02.:17:08.

Someone described it as a JCB or a wheelbarrow or something on a

:17:08.:17:14.

building project. She moves the barges around, pushes them, tax

:17:14.:17:23.

them. She carries them around, carries personal around -- carries

:17:23.:17:28.

personnel around, whatever needs doing, she does it. The company is a

:17:28.:17:35.

major employer on Anglesey. 120 people working with a further 500

:17:35.:17:40.

around the world. 50 years ago, this business began renting rowing boats

:17:40.:17:44.

in the harbour, now there is an annual turnover of £50 million.

:17:44.:17:47.

These days as well as operating tags, they repair boats. This is HMS

:17:47.:17:58.

charger, a Royal Navy training vessel.

:17:58.:18:02.

Ministry of Defence contracts are important to this business.

:18:02.:18:11.

This is a pilot boat. They are busy but they say there are challenges

:18:11.:18:15.

operating out of Holyhead. The problem is that we are a long way

:18:15.:18:21.

from the markets and we are a long way from the centres where there are

:18:21.:18:26.

skilled people. Recruitment is a real problem for

:18:26.:18:31.

us. Back in Italy, the Walker on the Costa Concordia is far from over --

:18:31.:18:34.

the work. The Afon Cefni will be there at least until the New Year. A

:18:34.:18:38.

Welsh business playing its part in one of the most complex salvage

:18:38.:18:47.

operations ever mounted. Are Brass Bands having a bit of a

:18:47.:18:53.

renaissance in Wales? It would appear so. We've already got two of

:18:53.:18:57.

the best in the UK and there was more success in other competitions

:18:58.:19:01.

at the weekend too. With budget cuts for music tuition in many areas, the

:19:01.:19:04.

bands say they're now helping to teach the next generation of

:19:04.:19:06.

bands say they're now helping to musicians. Our Gwent valleys

:19:06.:19:10.

reporter Paul Heaney has more. Never in its history has the

:19:10.:19:14.

Tredegar town band and such a successful period or had such a

:19:14.:19:28.

bright future ahead of it. Practice is paying off for the

:19:28.:19:32.

Tredegar town band. Recent winners of the oldest competition in the

:19:32.:19:36.

country, the British Open title. But with cuts to music budgets in many

:19:36.:19:41.

areas including in Blaenau Gwent, musicians like these are now

:19:41.:19:44.

offering to help teach the next generation. We have to step into the

:19:44.:19:51.

void. The bands I wrote in the valleys connecting with the people

:19:51.:19:59.

out there. It is expensive to play in a brass band, don't get me wrong.

:19:59.:20:04.

The instruments can cost anything up to £10,000 apiece. But what we are

:20:04.:20:08.

providing is free tuition and that is the key to it. But this band is

:20:08.:20:12.

not the only success story will stop is the key to it. But this band is

:20:12.:20:14.

at the weekend, bands from Rhondda is the key to it. But this band is

:20:14.:20:27.

and Pembrokeshire also won titles. The music lessons you get, they

:20:27.:20:30.

teach you everything you need to know, but then playing as part of a

:20:30.:20:34.

band puts everything you learn into context. A lot of the music funding

:20:34.:20:37.

band puts everything you learn into has gone. We have seen a big influx

:20:37.:20:42.

of young that children spring out of nowhere because tuition costs have

:20:42.:20:43.

of young that children spring out of gone through the roof. The

:20:43.:20:49.

subsidising of music lessons varies between schools and local

:20:49.:20:52.

authorities but there is no variation in the talent on show here

:20:52.:20:57.

time for the sports news. Good evening. Swansea City have overtaken

Cardiff City in the Premier League table, after rounding off an

:21:25.:21:28.

excellent week with a 2-0 victory at Crystal Palace. They're up to ninth.

:21:28.:21:31.

Cardiff City conceded a goal in added time against Spurs, losing

:21:31.:21:34.

1-0. They're back in action tomorrow, travelling to West Ham in

the League Cup. It took Swansea City just 90 seconds

hangover. Unfortunately, we did not look like that on the training

ground but we did not have Swansea to play against and their structure

and their passing and their movement and their confidence from any

midweek performance. I was hoping squad might flag but after a minute

and a bit, you build on what you did the other night and it is just want

:22:19.:22:23.

to be tough. Cardiff City 's manager Malky Mackay described their one nil

defeat by Tottenham as cruel. Cardiff had been kept in the game

:22:28.:22:32.

largely by goalkeeper David Marshall, producing a string of

:22:32.:22:35.

terrific stops. They did hit the back of the net but the referee

denied Ben Turner the goal. And holding on just seconds away from a

point, the visitors finally broke the resistance and fans hearts. I

think if we play like that, we defended well at times, it is an

absolute sickener. That was just disappointing really. As Cardiff and

Swansea fans now prepare for the league cup this week, in Madrid,

they are still waiting to see Gareth Bale make his home debut at the

in the final of the YB40 on Saturday. But they say their recent

improvement to reach a Lord's final will prove to be the start of a more

but I think we will get the respect they deserve for the talent in the

changing room. We have some very good youngsters. We have some good

players for the future. Getting to a Lord's final, hopefully that will

The majority of us will get away with a dry day. Top temperature 19
