We are back with the late news at 10:25pm. | 0:00:00 | 0:00:01 | |
Good evening. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:14 | |
The Welsh Conservatives say the only budget they would guarantee | 0:00:14 | 0:00:18 | |
to protect would be the NHS if they win power in Cardiff Bay. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:21 | |
The leader Andrew RT Davies says he'd like to see as much money | 0:00:21 | 0:00:25 | |
going into public services as possible, but it would depend | 0:00:25 | 0:00:28 | |
on the financial settlement from Westminster. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:32 | |
From the Welsh Conservative conference in Llangollen, | 0:00:32 | 0:00:34 | |
our Political Editor Nick Servini. | 0:00:34 | 0:00:36 | |
Tea and scones for Andrew RT Davis in the tea shop | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
in Llangollen this morning. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:41 | |
And it's bread-and-butter Welsh Assembly issues he wants | 0:00:41 | 0:00:43 | |
the conference to be about, rather than the EU referendum, | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
which dominated David Cameron's speech to the party faithful | 0:00:46 | 0:00:50 | |
yesterday. | 0:00:50 | 0:00:53 | |
In an interview for the Sunday Politics Wales programme, | 0:00:53 | 0:00:56 | |
Mr Davies gave more details of some of the party's spending commitments | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
if he becomes First Minister after the Assembly elections in May. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:04 | |
I would like to see as much money going into public services | 0:01:04 | 0:01:11 | |
as possible here in Wales, but it would be wrong of me at this | 0:01:11 | 0:01:14 | |
stage to say that I can guarantee X, Y and Z other | 0:01:14 | 0:01:17 | |
than the health budget. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
We can guarantee that the 500 million that we will receive over | 0:01:20 | 0:01:22 | |
the five years of the Assembly will go into the Welsh NHS. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
The big question for the Conservatives is what would | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |
happen to the education budget if they were in government. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:30 | |
And the reason for that is that five years ago, their former party leader | 0:01:30 | 0:01:33 | |
Nick Bourne floated the possibility that it may have to be cut by up | 0:01:33 | 0:01:37 | |
to 20% in order to ring fence health. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:39 | |
And their political opponents have not let them forget it. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:42 | |
Despite the lack of a guarantee on anything other than health, | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
the party insists that under its control, more money | 0:01:45 | 0:01:47 | |
would be freed up for schools as a result of funding them directly | 0:01:47 | 0:01:51 | |
rather than through councils. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:55 | |
It also says there would be more cash available by scrapping Labour's | 0:01:55 | 0:01:59 | |
university tuition fee subsidy. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:03 | |
It's debates like these on public services Conservatives | 0:02:03 | 0:02:06 | |
at the Assembly want to engage people in on the doorstep over | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
the next two months. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:13 | |
The question is whether they can amid a very noisy EU referendum | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
campaign at the same time. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:19 | |
Nearly two tonnes of illegal tobacco and half a million illegal | 0:02:19 | 0:02:23 | |
cigarettes were seized in Wales last summer. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
An initiative funded by the Welsh Government used tobacco | 0:02:25 | 0:02:28 | |
sniffer dogs to help Trading Standards officers find | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
tobacco which was counterfeit, illegally smuggled or on which duty | 0:02:30 | 0:02:33 | |
had not been paid. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:38 | |
There's a call for more to be done to improve the ethnic diversity | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
of firefighters in Wales. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:43 | |
Less than 1% of Wales' firefighters are non-white. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:47 | |
According to Government figures, only 40 out of more than 4,000 | 0:02:47 | 0:02:50 | |
full-time firefighters in Wales are black | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
and minority ethnic. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:56 | |
The UK Government's Fire Minister, Mike Penning, says diversity is not | 0:02:56 | 0:02:58 | |
an optional extra. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:02 | |
Rugby, and the second half of Wales' crunch Six Nations match | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
against England is underway at Twickenham. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:08 | |
It wasn't a good first half for the Welsh side | 0:03:08 | 0:03:10 | |
with England's Anthony Watson touching down in the corner to score | 0:03:10 | 0:03:13 | |
the first try of the match in the 31st minute. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
Owen Farrell had earlier booted his third penalty making | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
the score at half time 16-0. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:24 | |
Football and all the big Welsh sides were in action this afternoon. | 0:03:24 | 0:03:27 | |
On the back of two Premier League wins it was a loss for Swansea City | 0:03:27 | 0:03:31 | |
playing Bournemouth, with a final score of 3-2. | 0:03:31 | 0:03:33 | |
Meanwhile in Cardiff it was a 1-0 win for | 0:03:33 | 0:03:36 | |
the Bluebirds against Ipswich. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:37 | |
In League 2, Newport were victorious against Portsmouth with a final | 0:03:37 | 0:03:40 | |
score of 3-0. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:42 | |
And Wrexham also won 1-0 against Boreham Wood | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
in the National League. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:48 | |
A look at the weather now. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:49 | |
Overnight, it will stay dry with variable amounts | 0:03:49 | 0:03:51 | |
of cloud and light winds. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:53 | |
There may be some hill fog or mist developing later in the night. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:56 | |
Top temperatures 3 Celsius. | 0:03:56 | 0:03:58 | |
Tomorrow will start rather cloudy, perhaps with patchy mist and fog. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
That should clear through the morning to leave plenty | 0:04:01 | 0:04:05 | |
of sunshine, temperatures reaching 14 Celsius. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:10 | |
That's all for now. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:12 | |
Garry Owen will be here with the all the news from around | 0:04:12 | 0:04:14 | |
Wales tomorrow evening at 6.50pm. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:16 | |
But from me and all the weekend team, goodbye. | 0:04:16 | 0:04:19 | |
country. We have black and white, every | 0:04:33 | 0:04:37 | |
Goodbye. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:41 |
