Good evening. A data security expert says electoral roll breaches at

:00:12.:00:16.

three Welsh councils could be even more widespread. The Information

:00:17.:00:20.

Commissioner's Office is continuing to investigate how voter details may

:00:21.:00:23.

have been mistakenly passed to third parties because of a computer

:00:24.:00:29.

software error. Rhondda Cynon Taf, Torfaen and Caerphilly councils say

:00:30.:00:32.

they've taken action to try to solve the problem.

:00:33.:00:36.

Fire officers say a fire at a secondary school in Monmouthshire

:00:37.:00:40.

was a "clear act of arson" that could have caused millions of pounds

:00:41.:00:44.

worth of damage. Crews were called to Caldicot School just after eight

:00:45.:00:48.

o'clock this morning and the fire was contained to a ground floor

:00:49.:00:51.

office, but officers say it had the potential to do serious damage.

:00:52.:00:55.

Campaigners in Llandudno who want pebbles on the beach replaced with

:00:56.:00:59.

sand have held a rally. The North Shore was covered in stones 12 years

:01:00.:01:04.

ago to boost sea defences. Conwy Council says it's protecting

:01:05.:01:13.

businesses and homes from flooding. Far from a gentle stroll on the

:01:14.:01:17.

seafront, these pebbles have made it an obstacle course for people on the

:01:18.:01:20.

beach today. Campaigners say they want the sounds of the North Shore

:01:21.:01:28.

back. It is our car owning glory. -- crowning glory. It is known all over

:01:29.:01:32.

the world. Destroy that and it is the killing of destroying Llandudno.

:01:33.:01:40.

Six years ago, Llandudno was famed for its glorious beaches, when a

:01:41.:01:46.

bucket and spade use to be enough, now it's heavy machinery that's used

:01:47.:01:49.

on the beach. Tonnes of pebbles being brought in to strengthen sea

:01:50.:01:52.

defences. The council says it's protecting the area and its real

:01:53.:01:55.

estate from flooding. But these campaigners say it has cost them

:01:56.:02:01.

their sandy beaches. Seaside resorts are known for having sand. We

:02:02.:02:04.

haven't got very much because they have taken it away. Right now we're

:02:05.:02:09.

standing, we had wooden drawings. Those are different generations as

:02:10.:02:14.

an adequate sea defence against the elements. There is still some sand

:02:15.:02:17.

left on the beaches, but campaigners feel it's fast disappearing and so

:02:18.:02:20.

are Llandudno's golden days. Campaigners fighting to save a

:02:21.:02:23.

Wrexham leisure centre say there is a lot of work to do before they can

:02:24.:02:27.

consider taking over the council-run venue. Plas Madoc Leisure Centre

:02:28.:02:30.

closes tomorrow, but Splash Community Trust has until first

:02:31.:02:34.

October to save it from demolition. The council says it can no longer

:02:35.:02:41.

afford to run the facility. There will be a lot of sorrow because the

:02:42.:02:45.

place is closing. We have a lot of users that are used to going in

:02:46.:02:49.

three, four, five times a week. They are going to miss that facility. You

:02:50.:02:56.

have got to remember, if the leisure facility closes in the town, there

:02:57.:03:04.

are other options. -- it is not very many other options.

:03:05.:03:07.

Swansea City have all but guaranteed their Premier League status after a

:03:08.:03:11.

convincing 4-1 win over Aston Villa. It's the Swans' first back-to-back

:03:12.:03:14.

wins in the Premier League since December 2012 and means they're 12th

:03:15.:03:17.

in the table, eight points clear of the bottom three.

:03:18.:03:22.

A wonder goal got us back the lead. Disappointed we didn't get the

:03:23.:03:24.

equaliser, but the second half, we will dominant in every aspect. We

:03:25.:03:30.

got our reward and it was a fantastic end to the game for us.

:03:31.:03:33.

In League Two, Newport County lost 1-0 to York City. In the Conference,

:03:34.:03:37.

Wrexham are currently away to Forest Green. They are currently leading

:03:38.:03:40.

1-0. In a tense match, Pontypridd have

:03:41.:03:44.

been denied a place in the final of the British and Irish Cup by

:03:45.:03:47.

Leinster A. The game at Sardis Road finished 22-22. But the Irish team

:03:48.:03:51.

went through on try count as they crossed three times, compared with

:03:52.:03:53.

Pontypridd's once. At the Snooker World Championships

:03:54.:03:56.

in Sheffield, Wales' Ryan Day is trailing Judd Trump by six frames to

:03:57.:03:59.

two ahead of tomorrow's session. This evening, Dominic Dale takes on

:04:00.:04:02.

qualifier Michael Wasley. The weather forecast now, with Rhian

:04:03.:04:04.

Haf. It is pretty unsettled for the last

:04:05.:04:15.

weekend in April. That is courtesy of a deep area of low pressure to

:04:16.:04:19.

the south-west of the British Isles. That will bring more showers

:04:20.:04:22.

tonight, especially to southern areas, and it could be heavy at

:04:23.:04:25.

times. It will clear slowly overnight. Definitely less

:04:26.:04:31.

widespread by dawn. The wind is easing as well and it is quite mild

:04:32.:04:35.

night, between 7-9 Celsius. Tomorrow, a murky start. It is less

:04:36.:04:40.

windy and sunshine will develop through the morning, but also

:04:41.:04:43.

showers, especially by the afternoon. There will be hailstones

:04:44.:04:47.

and Fonda and temperatures of 13-14 Celsius. -- and thunder. Monday is

:04:48.:04:55.

quieter, but through the week, more rain and showers until Thursday when

:04:56.:04:59.

it time is drier and brighter, of all a bit chilly at the beginning of

:05:00.:05:03.

May. -- although a bit chilly. That's Wales Today. I'll be back at

:05:04.:05:06.

6.50pm tomorrow night. Enjoy your evening. Goodbye.

:05:07.:05:14.
