After months of often bitter talks, the WRU and regional teams

:00:00.:00:15.

agree a new multi-million pound deal.

:00:16.:00:53.

on the NATO summit but can any economic benefits be made to last?

:00:54.:00:59.

Malcolm King raised concerns about child protection in Wrexham.

:01:00.:01:01.

He's sacked from the council's executive board.

:01:02.:01:03.

As the only publicly-funded food testing lab closes,

a claim Wales could struggle if there's another horse meat scandal.

:01:06.:01:08.

It is the scourge of many households.

:01:09.:01:10.

Scientists undertake the largest trial aimed

:01:11.:01:11.

In the last hour, a deal has been done between the WRU

:01:12.:01:22.

After an 18-month battle, both sides signed a new agreement.

:01:23.:01:28.

Let's go straight to Claire with all the details.

:01:29.:01:32.

It's been some time coming but the WRU and the regions

:01:33.:01:37.

have tonight signed a six-year agreement.

:01:38.:01:41.

much of them bitter and played out in public.

:01:42.:02:10.

The so-called Rugby Services Agreement

:02:11.:02:11.

will see an increase in the amount of union funding to the regions

The so-called Rugby Services Agreement

:02:17.:02:16.

will see an increase in the amount of union funding to the regions

:02:17.:02:17.

and the introduction of dual contracts for some players.

:02:18.:02:20.

and new participation agreement has been signed and a huge sigh of

:02:21.:02:59.

relief has been briefed. It is not good to see our stakeholders in the

:03:00.:03:03.

game disagreeing with a light of what has happened being played out

:03:04.:03:08.

in the press and media. It is important now that the agreement has

:03:09.:03:13.

been made. It is an important season for the regions and all involved.

:03:14.:03:21.

What has changed. The old agreement set out how much money the club 's

:03:22.:03:29.

received from the union. An additional ?2 million has been ring

:03:30.:03:36.

fenced to fund will contact the ten senior internationals. The union

:03:37.:03:43.

will pay 60% of their salaries with the union picking up the tab for the

:03:44.:03:54.

rest. Only those playing in Wales were considered. The list is

:03:55.:04:07.

considered to include ten names. Sam Warburton had already signed a

:04:08.:04:12.

central contract. Perhaps the most subside -- surprising inclusion is

:04:13.:04:13.

Gareth Maule is several senior players are enjoying spells in

:04:14.:04:15.

France. In future, players choosing to follow the lead may miss out on

:04:16.:04:19.

Welsh selection. Warren Gatland encourages players to stay here to

:04:20.:04:21.

play for their country. It is hoped these changes would reverse the

:04:22.:04:23.

trend of high-profile players leaving. If you want an improved

:04:24.:04:27.

product, he wants the full continent. At the launch of the

:04:28.:04:31.

league in London, players and journalists were able to give their

:04:32.:04:34.

take on the situation. The contradiction of the fortunes

:04:35.:04:36.

between the national team and the regional teams who have just not

:04:37.:04:41.

delivered in Europe. It is one of the great paradoxes of the time. You

:04:42.:04:44.

would hope this will make a difference. A lot of the star names

:04:45.:04:52.

could come back. But professional rugby being pulled back from the

:04:53.:04:57.

brink of the abyss, there were no signs of champagne corks being

:04:58.:05:03.

popped today. Peace has broken out and a deal has been signed. There

:05:04.:05:06.

are some open wounds between the parties.

:05:07.:05:11.

Live to the Millennium Stadium now. Ross is outside the home of Welsh

:05:12.:05:14.

rugby. Huge sighs of relief, a deal has

:05:15.:05:16.

been reached. It's been a bitter, acrimonious

:05:17.:05:18.

battle. How confident can we be that peace

:05:19.:05:21.

will now reign? Nothing on camera from the regions.

:05:22.:05:26.

They have released a joint statement. The chairman of regional

:05:27.:05:32.

rugby said following a long and detailed negotiation, they have

:05:33.:05:40.

decided the new agreement will create a fair and credible

:05:41.:05:42.

foundation to spot the best interests of Welsh Rugby Union to

:05:43.:05:48.

the future. The core objective of delivering sustainable and

:05:49.:05:50.

professional game in Wales. The Chief of the union is with me this

:05:51.:05:55.

evening. Smiles all round and relief. We are relieved and we are

:05:56.:06:04.

also pleased for the fans. We are particularly pleased for the players

:06:05.:06:10.

and coaches. This agreement is player centred and focused. That is

:06:11.:06:14.

why it has taken so long, to understand the dynamics around this

:06:15.:06:19.

agreement. If only can achieve the ambitions of the four regions, we

:06:20.:06:24.

would then want our rugby objectives achieved and that is what we have

:06:25.:06:30.

done with this agreement. It is a complex agreement. It is

:06:31.:06:32.

ground-breaking and for the next six years. Much of this has been played

:06:33.:06:40.

out in public you confident you can heal some of the wounds that have

:06:41.:06:47.

been created? Nigel and I have spent countless hours since January in the

:06:48.:06:56.

negotiation room. There has never been a crossword or an angry words

:06:57.:07:00.

between us. What has taken this within the room has not been

:07:01.:07:05.

reflected by others outside of that room. That is why I am confident

:07:06.:07:09.

this partnership will work. He had work starts. Surely you don't mean

:07:10.:07:15.

that cosmic there has been plenty of crosswords behind the scenes? We

:07:16.:07:20.

have not engaged in anything either publicly or privately because so

:07:21.:07:28.

when asked us not to comment on negotiations. We have kept our

:07:29.:07:34.

dignity and have not entered into discussions with the media about

:07:35.:07:37.

what has been taking place behind closed doors. That does move on to

:07:38.:07:42.

some of the details. There is plenty to pore over. One thing that will

:07:43.:07:48.

jump out with the reinforcement of players staying in Wales to play for

:07:49.:07:53.

Wales. It is not absolute. Can you elaborate? At the heart of this

:07:54.:07:58.

agreement is the players. We must create the best day environment for

:07:59.:08:04.

our finest players in Wales. The legions will work with our national

:08:05.:08:09.

coach who has been at the heart of these negotiations to make sure the

:08:10.:08:16.

players stay in Wales. If we can do that through the late finances and

:08:17.:08:19.

protocols, we are confident we can say to players if you cannot work

:08:20.:08:24.

with us together, we have to be fair with the players then we can say if

:08:25.:08:29.

you cannot play in Wales will not be picked for Wales. There are a number

:08:30.:08:34.

of complex processes and procedures in that so that everyone acts

:08:35.:08:41.

fairly. Thank you for your time tonight. That is the situation here.

:08:42.:08:46.

Plenty to pore over in this document. That could be the case

:08:47.:08:54.

that if you do decide in future to play outside of Wales, you may have

:08:55.:08:58.

to give up your international ambition. We will have more reaction

:08:59.:09:02.

in the coming days. We'll have more from Ross later in

there's just a week to go until Wales hopes to impress

more than just the few days that The excitement around the news that

:09:24.:09:39.

Wales would host the summit was a bit like Newport had hit a jackpot.

:09:40.:09:44.

The bonanza was about to begin. Businesses would have a second

:10:18.:10:23.

certain kitchens but overwrought we will probably do the same amount.

:10:24.:10:29.

The summit is expected to be five times bigger than the Ryder Cup.

Ironically, it is not delivering any extra orders from the Celtic Manor.

just a stamp of approval on the highest order. It doesn't get any

better. That message goes well beyond food. The summit is a good

opportunity to freshen up the way other parts of the world think about

the allegations which were having It seems to me that it is a question

of out of sight and out of mind. That was marking King speaking to us

in the early 1990s when the councillor was establishing himself

:14:17.:14:20.

as one of the leading campaigners against child abuse. He was

saw was a culture of secrecy when dealing with allegations of abuse in

:14:35.:14:42.

child protection. He was contacted he says by four social workers who

:14:43.:14:45.

were concerned about the way the department was being run. In a

:14:46.:14:52.

confidential report, the council leader detailed 16 allegations

:14:53.:14:56.

including concerns about the number of cases social workers were

of the council. I have no way of knowing whether allegations were

:15:15.:15:18.

true or not. But the idea that I would sit on them or tell the

:15:19.:15:23.

workers to go away is absurd. Child protection is arguably the most

:15:24.:15:29.

important thing we do as a council. Wrexham Council says an independent

:15:30.:15:31.

expert found there was no evidence to back up his claims. The leader

:15:32.:15:38.

was not available to be interviewed today but in a statement he says he

:15:39.:15:43.

removed him from his job because it was concerned allegations are having

:15:44.:15:47.

a negative impact on staff. I fully support what the leader has done. I

:15:48.:15:53.

believe the actions Malcolm King took undermined the childhood family

:15:54.:16:02.

assessment team. Issues of child abuse and child protection still hit

:16:03.:16:08.

in the -- raw nerve in this part of Wales. That is an ongoing police

:16:09.:16:12.

investigation of claims into historic abuse. His sacking may

appear surprising but what it does is exposed tensions in the ruling

Paul Martin. The horse meat scandal affected

councils across Wales. They had to meet quickly to test the meat they

were serving. All local authorities appoint a scientist from a private

:17:27.:17:30.

lab or one of their own to do that kind of work. What routine tasks.

:17:31.:17:41.

Take place. This laboratory run by Cardiff Council is closing tomorrow.

:17:42.:17:46.

It will save ?200,000 a year. It is the last public to run one in Wales

:17:47.:17:50.

and was used by nine local authorities in all. They were now

have to outsource testing work to private laboratories. The horse meat

scandal should clearly the importance of public analyst work

:18:02.:18:05.

and the importance of having public analysts working for the public and

:18:06.:18:08.

not doing it for racial considerations. I do not know what

:18:09.:18:18.

the result will be if it is only the commercial sector deciding what will

:18:19.:18:26.

be done. This private company has laboratories around the world

:18:27.:18:29.

including two in Wales. It works with several councils. One of the

:18:30.:18:34.

scientists told me it is capable of handling peaks in demand. I do not

:18:35.:18:39.

believe it is an issue of public versus private. I believe a

:18:40.:18:47.

laboratory like ourselves are able to offer a service where we have an

:18:48.:18:57.

incident like horse meat, we can carry out food testing and water

:18:58.:18:59.

testing and environmental and other areas. When something like this

:19:00.:19:05.

happens, we can take the stuff and put them on to do the food work just

:19:06.:19:09.

to get that out of the way. We can scale up for the emergency. The

:19:10.:19:14.

closure of council run labs is often an cost grounds. The Welsh Local

:19:15.:19:19.

Government Association says the captive closure is a stark example

of how vital cancer facilities are disappearing.

:19:23.:19:35.

It costs ?8 million a year to bring it under control

:19:36.:19:37.

Japanese knotweed can grow three metres high in as many months

:19:38.:19:42.

and is one of the most damaging species in the UK.

:19:43.:19:44.

Now scientists at Swansea University are conducting

:19:45.:19:46.

the largest field trial in Europe to find new ways of killing the plant.

:19:47.:19:49.

Carwyn Jones has been finding out more.

:19:50.:19:51.

It's a homeowners worst nightmare. Japanese knotweed is strong

:19:52.:19:53.

and resilient. It can force

:19:54.:19:55.

its way through concrete, from roots deep underground.

:19:56.:19:58.

Once you've got it in your garden, you'll struggle to get rid of it.

:19:59.:20:01.

The plant was first introduced into the UK by Victorian explorers,

:20:02.:20:03.

who were taken with its creamy white flowers.

:20:04.:20:06.

It's now become an unstoppable pest, damaging buildings

:20:07.:20:08.

and suffocating our native plants. If you want an idea of how difficult

:20:09.:20:21.

it is to get rid of, look at the roots. They have been looted by

:20:22.:20:26.

chemicals. Look closely and you will see the stems are beginning to grow

:20:27.:20:30.

back. In time, it will flourish and spread.

:20:31.:20:32.

and suffocating our native plants. Treatments for Japanese knotweed can

:20:33.:20:35.

cost anything up to ?25,000 but there's been very little scientific

:20:36.:20:37.

research into whether these chemicals work in the long term.

:20:38.:20:40.

Now a team of ecologists AND botanists from Swansea University

:20:41.:20:43.

are testing 21 different methods of controlling knotweed, to see

:20:44.:20:49.

which, if any, are successful. It's the biggest trial of

:20:50.:20:50.

its kind ever conducted in Europe. We have a number of herbicides which

:20:51.:21:00.

have been licensed for use which perhaps have not been used as

:21:01.:21:03.

effectively as maybe they should be or could be.

:21:04.:21:06.

its kind ever conducted in Europe. On this patch of land

:21:07.:21:08.

on the outskirts of Cardiff, the team cleared the knotweed away

:21:09.:21:10.

and applied a combination of three chemical treatments over

:21:11.:21:13.

the course of two years on both the soil and the roots.

:21:14.:21:17.

With this method, we have some good controlled results. It has a success

:21:18.:21:24.

of 95% control. on both the soil and the roots.

:21:25.:21:28.

In Wales it costs more than ?8 million a year to bring Japanese

:21:29.:21:30.

knotweed under control. Ian Graham's company has been

:21:31.:21:33.

tackling the plant here, and across the UK, for the last 15 years.

:21:34.:21:37.

It is important that we try to find a better way of dealing with what we

:21:38.:21:42.

have got and preventing its spread. Otherwise, what we see here today

:21:43.:21:48.

could just be an example of what will happen elsewhere.

:21:49.:21:50.

the UK, for the last 15 years. The results of this field trial

:21:51.:21:53.

will be known next summer. We'll find out then whether any of

:21:54.:21:56.

these treatments have been proven to kill Japanese knotweed once and for

:21:57.:21:57.

all on the surface and below ground. A woman from Flint is

:21:58.:21:59.

familiar with than most having heard it 106 years in a row.

and in the morning. I was standing up on the machine.

:23:05.:23:08.

take the weight off her feet. Bette never had children

:23:09.:23:10.

of her own but her nieces, nephew and other relatives have been making

:23:11.:23:12.

sure she celebrates in style. She moved to this nursing home Michu

:23:13.:23:22.

was 101. She is still very independent and makes her own bed

:23:23.:23:24.

most mornings. sure she celebrates in style.

:23:25.:23:27.

Her family say she worked hard and took regular walks

:23:28.:23:30.

but anyone looking for clues as to her longevity might be

:23:31.:23:31.

surprised at her diet. She has four sugars in her tea. She

:23:32.:23:41.

did not eat the vegetable of any sort until she was in her 40s. She

:23:42.:23:47.

is allergic to fruit. She hates it. I used to terrorise her was up I

:23:48.:23:52.

would get an orange or something and throw it in her lap. She could not

:23:53.:23:54.

even touch it. surprised at her diet.

:23:55.:23:58.

Bette was four when the Titanic sank and was already blowing out her

:23:59.:24:00.

sixth birthday candles when the First World War broke out.

:24:01.:24:03.

She has over a century of memories to look back on

:24:04.:24:04.

and new ones to look forward to. I hope Bet saw some sunshine

:24:05.:24:06.

on her birthday. I think an umbrella will come

:24:07.:24:17.

in handy in Flintshire. Some dry, bright weather tomorrow

:24:18.:24:21.

but also a few showers and breezy with a high of 18 Celsius in Flint.

:24:22.:24:25.

The weather is set to improve next week but we're in for another

:24:26.:24:28.

taste of autumn tomorrow. Windier and cooler.

:24:29.:24:30.

Some rain on the way as well. For this evening most places dry.

:24:31.:24:33.

Just the odd shower. Overnight

:24:34.:24:35.

a few more showers turning-up but still some dry weather as well.

:24:36.:24:38.

A breezy night, especially on the coast.

:24:39.:24:41.

Strong winds in the northwest with gusts over 40mph.

:24:42.:24:46.

Tomorrow's chart shows low pressure near Scotland

:24:47.:24:49.

and that means unsettled weather. Some rain,

:24:50.:24:52.

showers and stronger winds. So here's the picture for eight

:24:53.:24:56.

in the morning. Some places dry and bright.

:24:57.:24:59.

A little sunshine but a few showers dotted around as well.

:25:00.:25:01.

Quite breezy too, especially on the coast.

:25:02.:25:04.

The southwesterly wind strongest in the northwest.

During the day, cloud will increase with some rain in the afternoon.

:25:14.:25:16.

Heaviest on the high ground. 10 to 20mm in Snowdonia.

:25:17.:25:20.

:25:21.:25:23.

:25:24.:25:29.

:25:37.:25:41.

:25:46.:25:47.

A little sunshine in places. Sunday better but not perfect.

:25:48.:25:53.

Some dry, bright weather and sunshine but thicker cloud may

:25:54.:25:57.

bring a few spots of light rain. And heavier rain may reach Anglesey

:25:58.:25:58.

by evening. The wind lighter so feeling warmer.

:25:59.:26:06.

Now over the weekend a deep low over the Atlantic will move towards

:26:07.:26:13.

Iceland bringing stormy weather. Closer to home high pressure will

:26:14.:26:18.

build across France and the English Channel.

:26:19.:26:20.

And high pressure is going to dominate our weather next week.

:26:21.:26:23.

Settling things down and becoming warmer.

:26:24.:26:23.

So we and becoming warmer.

of summer yet. The Welsh Rugby Union and the four

:26:32.:26:41.

Welsh regions have signed a new deal ending nearly two years of dispute.

:26:42.:26:45.

At least six internationals will be on the world contact. Players who

:26:46.:26:50.

decide to play overseas they have to give up their ambition to play for

:26:51.:26:53.

Wales. Roger Lewis told of the deal is aimed at keeping the best playing

:26:54.:27:01.

in Wales. This is about players. We must create the best environment for

:27:02.:27:05.

our finest players in Wales and working with the legions and our

:27:06.:27:09.

national coach who has been at the heart of these discussions. We must

make sure the players and to stay here and if we can do that through

:27:15.:27:20.

the red protocols and fences, we are confident we can say to players if

:27:21.:27:25.

you cannot work with us together fairly, we have to be fair, then we

:27:26.:27:30.

can say if you cannot play in Wales, you do not get picked for Wales.

:27:31.:27:36.

That is Wales Today. We'll have a quick update at 8pm and

:27:37.:27:40.
