That's all from us. Now, time for the news where | :00:00. | :00:17. | |
A nurse has pleaded guilty to the wilful neglect of nine vulnerable | :00:18. | :00:21. | |
Rebecca Jones admitted that she falsified notes while she worked | :00:22. | :00:26. | |
Two other nurses, charged with similar offences, | :00:27. | :00:31. | |
did not enter pleas during a hearing at Cardiff Crown Court. | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
30-year-old Rebecca Jones was arrested in June last year | :00:36. | :00:41. | |
following an internal inquiry by the Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
Health Board, and an investigation by South Wales Police. | :00:45. | :00:49. | |
A month after her arrest, two others followed - those nurses | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
also face similar charges, but have yet to enter pleas. | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
Today, Rebecca Jones pleaded guilty to nine counts of wilful neglect - | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
contrary to section 44 of the 2005 Mental Capacity Act. | :01:01. | :01:05. | |
She admitted that she'd falsified the notes showing patients' blood | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
sugar levels while she worked on Ward Two of this hospital - | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
Lilian Williams, a great-grandmother in her eighties, | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
was one of the patients subjected to wilful neglect. | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
Alarm bells first rang about the treatment of vulnerable | :01:20. | :01:21. | |
patients when BBC Wales highlighted her case last year. | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
The public services ombudsman described her care as "tragic". | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
Lilian's family say she'd been sedated against their wishes - and | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
filmed her drugs scattered around the floor of her hospital bed. | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
Lilian's son was at court today to hear the guilty plea. | :01:37. | :01:39. | |
As a result of the problems at the Princess of Wales Hospital, | :01:40. | :02:00. | |
the Welsh Government commissioned an independent review last year. | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
Trusted to Care was published back in May, and it catalogued a series | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
It said there were aspects of care | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
that were simply unacceptable, and needed to be addressed urgently. | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
The Health Board say they've already put robust measures | :02:17. | :02:18. | |
Meanwhile, in total, 15 members of staff have now been suspended while | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
A review is taking place at the Royal Glamorgan Hospital | :02:25. | :02:32. | |
into allegations of bullying in the Accident Emergency Department. | :02:33. | :02:35. | |
It comes after concerns were raised by some members of staff | :02:36. | :02:37. | |
The Cwm Taf University Health Board says it takes any concerns raised | :02:38. | :02:43. | |
by staff seriously, but it cannot comment further while | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
The jail sentence given to the man convicted of killing 6-week | :02:47. | :02:53. | |
old Alfie Sullock is being reviewed by the Attorney General | :02:54. | :02:55. | |
Michael Pearce, who's 33 and from Caerphilly, was jailed | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
for nine years for the manslaughter of his girlfriend's son in July. | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
A decision is expected by the end of the month. | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
The Welsh Conservatives say the First Minister Carwyn Jones | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
should distance himself from 'distasteful' comments made over | :03:15. | :03:17. | |
Mr Jones met Argentina's ambassador, Alicia Castro, to discuss next | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
year's 150th anniversary of Welsh settlers in Patagonia. | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
Ms Castro claimed the settlers' integration disproved "propaganda" | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
that Argentina was hostile towards British descendants. | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
The Welsh government says it was not discussed. | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
The man in charge of policing next month's NATO summit | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
in Newport has told Wales Today his officers are ready to deal with | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
It comes as security is being tightened | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
Around 9,000 police officers from 29 forces are being drafted in. | :03:51. | :03:56. | |
And miles of security fencing is being put up | :03:57. | :03:58. | |
Three metres tall, and designed to protect world leaders - | :03:59. | :04:09. | |
part of the 20 kilometres of metal fence that will wrap | :04:10. | :04:11. | |
around the Celtic Manor to help protect the NATO summit next month. | :04:12. | :04:17. | |
We are expecting small numbers of people to be disruptive, and that | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
disruption may take the form of trying to interfere with transport | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
infrastructure, or it may actually be damage or worse than that. | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
This is just one element of a mammoth security operation. | :04:30. | :04:35. | |
Police say there is plenty going on behind the scenes, including | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
looking at the Celtic Manor's building plans to check every | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
nook and cranny to see if there is a potential security risk there. | :04:44. | :04:48. | |
This fence has been put up in Bute Park in Cardiff, | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
part of protection for a series of high-level dinners | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
which could be held at landmarks like Cardiff Castle and | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama. | :04:59. | :05:02. | |
Police divers have already been checking drains around | :05:03. | :05:04. | |
Cardiff Castle for potential threats. | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
These were the scenes at the joint French-German summit in 2009. | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
It will be something officers here will want to avoid. | :05:14. | :05:16. | |
There is no suggestion anything like this will happen in Wales, | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
but police say they are prepared for everything. | :05:21. | :05:23. | |
There are strong international feelings about | :05:24. | :05:24. | |
some of the delegations who are attending. | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
We are anticipating protest activity. | :05:28. | :05:29. | |
We need to manage that safely, respecting people's lawful right to | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
protest, and then also dealing quickly with people who want to | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
misbehave and possibly damage things or act in a violent way. | :05:38. | :05:42. | |
Today, the NATO Secretary General was in Kiev holding talks ahead | :05:43. | :05:45. | |
Recently, he has spoken about the importance of the summit, | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
saying it will make the alliance fitter, faster and more flexible. | :05:51. | :05:55. | |
One senior Welsh politician thinks any agreement made at the summit | :05:56. | :05:58. | |
could have a lasting legacy for Wales. | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
Should there be a decision, it could well be Wales NATO decision, | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
it could be the Newport NATO decision, or anything else that has | :06:06. | :06:08. | |
come out of the agreement, it is important we make the most of this. | :06:09. | :06:11. | |
It is a strategic conference about all of our defence and security, but | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
it is also locally an exciting opportunity, and it is up to us to | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
The summit is now just four weeks away. | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
There will be protesting lawfully and peacefully against its agenda. | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
But as it draws closer, people in Newport | :06:31. | :06:32. | |
possibly getting a sense of how big this event may be. | :06:33. | :06:41. | |
Wales is catching up in the rollout of superfast broadband, but we still | :06:42. | :06:44. | |

It'll run for a 12-month trial, powering homes in St Davids. | :07:10. | :07:17. | |
The new Timelord - Peter Capaldi - joined the other stars of Doctor Who | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
It was the world premier of the brand-new series of the sci-fi | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
It was the first full outing for Capaldi in the title role. | :07:26. | :07:32. | |
It is absolutely thrilling to have so many people turn | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
out to see Doctor Who, such a wonderful show. | :07:36. | :07:37. | |
It is nice to finally meet some of the fans who've been | :07:38. | :07:40. | |

as a replacement for Jordon Mutch, who joined QPR this week. | :07:56. | :08:01. | |
Is this sunshine set to continue for a while, Benny? | :08:02. | :08:10. | |
At least through tomorrow, but Sunday, we have nasty weather | :08:11. | :08:18. | |
heading our way. Tomorrow, sunshine but a bit more cloud for the | :08:19. | :08:22. | |

Sunshine, but gradually some showers. For the majority, it should | :08:40. | :08:44. | |
be dry. For the rest of the UK, nasty showers making their way up | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
from France through the south-east. A yellow warning for Northern | :08:48. | :08:51. | |

of uncertainty about its position, but it will bring rain with it. -- | :09:34. | :09:38. | |
from the Atlantic. There is the potential for flooding, and the | :09:39. | :09:44. | |
potential impact is strong winds and also some very big waves. Keep an | :09:45. | :09:46. | |
eye on the forecast. Back to you. We'll be back in Breakfast | :09:47. | :09:50. | |
