and I'll be back with the late news at 10.30.

Tata would need to give guarantees it's in the UK steel industry

:00:13.:00:17.

for the long run if it decides not to sell off its UK operations -

:00:18.:00:21.

That's according to the Aberavon MP, Stephen Kinnock.

:00:22.:00:24.

This week, Tata said losses had narrowed recently,

:00:25.:00:27.

leading to speculation that the firm may decide not to sell.

:00:28.:00:33.

The Leader of the Welsh Conservatives has laid out

:00:34.:00:35.

for the first time why he thinks his party lost ground

:00:36.:00:38.

Writing in the Sunday Times, Andrew RT Davies said a lack

:00:39.:00:44.

of unity on the European Union, UK government challenges and Ukip

:00:45.:00:47.

all contributed to the party losing three seats in

:00:48.:00:50.

Companies and workplaces are being urged to be flexible

:00:51.:00:56.

with staff during the Euro 2016 football tournament next month,

:00:57.:00:59.

to avoid disputes arising when employees want

:01:00.:01:01.

The conciliation service Acas has published a set of guidelines

:01:02.:01:07.

suggesting firms consider giving workers time off for big

:01:08.:01:11.

It's more than half a century since Wales lost participated

:01:12.:01:19.

And the 58-year wait will undoubtedly mean excitement

:01:20.:01:24.

will reach fever pitch for many devoted fans of Bale and the boys.

:01:25.:01:27.

But one of the most anticipated games of Euro 2016, the England

:01:28.:01:32.

game, takes place in the middle of the working day.

:01:33.:01:35.

The conciliation service, Acas, has published a set

:01:36.:01:38.

of guidelines for employers, suggesting they should be flexible

:01:39.:01:42.

with staffing and rotas at times when Wales is playing.

:01:43.:01:44.

First of all, preparation in advance to make sure that everybody has

:01:45.:01:49.

clear expectations so there are no misunderstandings

:01:50.:01:53.

Secondly, a little bit of flexibility and goodwill

:01:54.:01:56.

Thirdly, work continues for employees to maintain standards

:01:57.:02:00.

When Wales meet England on the 16th of June,

:02:01.:02:09.

the kick off at 2pm on Thursday afternoon is bound to distract many

:02:10.:02:13.

David Collins is an ardent Wales fan, but also

:02:14.:02:18.

I would understand if there was a clamour to watch it

:02:19.:02:23.

As a manager, I think I understand that in terms of boosting morale

:02:24.:02:29.

For the sake of an hour and a half, leave the telly on,

:02:30.:02:34.

have the radio one or something like that.

:02:35.:02:36.

Acas say staff should avoid getting a red card for unreasonable demands

:02:37.:02:39.

But they're also urging employers to have a simple set of agreements

:02:40.:02:43.

That way, they ensure businesses remain productive while at the same

:02:44.:02:48.

Plans have been unveiled to enhance New Quay harbour in Ceredigion,

:02:49.:02:56.

The plans include improving the existing stone pier

:02:57.:03:00.

There are concerns about possible disruption, but supporters say

:03:01.:03:05.

the work is needed to improve access to boats offering sight-seeing

:03:06.:03:07.

I think New Quay needs this sort of scheme because the harbour

:03:08.:03:15.

We can't load and unload fishing boats, lifeboats, passenger boats.

:03:16.:03:20.

Yachts can't take their crews of the boats.

:03:21.:03:22.

A small extension, a simple pile driven extension out into low-water.

:03:23.:03:33.

It would enable us to do all of this.

:03:34.:03:36.

One of Europe's biggest youth festivals, the Urdd Eisteddfod,

:03:37.:03:39.

begins this evening with an opening concert in Flintshire.

:03:40.:03:41.

Singer Mike Peters, frontman of The Alarm,

:03:42.:03:42.

Between now and next Saturday, around 90,000 visitors

:03:43.:03:46.

are expected to visit the festival, which is based at Flint High School.

:03:47.:03:49.

Having the Eisteddfod held in an area with not so many Welsh

:03:50.:03:52.

speaking actually can create a big impact sometimes.

:03:53.:03:56.

Yesterday, I saw Hairspray - the show that was being put

:03:57.:04:00.

So many of them from non-Welsh speaking backgrounds.

:04:01.:04:06.

That kind of makes it very special for us.

:04:07.:04:11.

Rugby, and the highlights of the Wales England game will be

:04:12.:04:16.

So, if you don't want to know the score, now's

:04:17.:04:19.

Despite a strong start for Wales, England won 27-13 at Twickenham.

:04:20.:04:26.

It all started so well. Just six minutes in and Rob Evans piled onto

:04:27.:04:34.

the ball and over the line, it is converted. A penalty soon extend the

:04:35.:04:38.

lead. England get a chance to put their first lead on the board.

:04:39.:04:43.

George Ford Mrs Peat penalty, the first of many. It is quickly

:04:44.:04:47.

corrected. -- Lord Ford Mrs the penalty. In the second half, England

:04:48.:04:54.

show their might with two tries in the first ten minutes. That the

:04:55.:04:59.

biggest cheer goes to George Ford's first and only successful kick. Yard

:05:00.:05:04.

gives the home team a fifth try and its little consolation to Wales but

:05:05.:05:07.

Kerr Ford misses the game. It was relentless for the full

:05:08.:05:18.

match. There is element of our game which aren't quite there. We have

:05:19.:05:22.

two weeks to work on it before the first test and the ride a lot of

:05:23.:05:26.

positives in our game as well. We are disappointed, no doubt about

:05:27.:05:29.

that. We know the level we are at and where we need to be. That and

:05:30.:05:35.

will already have his thoughts on the game on June 11 and the best in

:05:36.:05:41.

the room to improve before then. -- room to improve.

:05:42.:05:43.

A look at the weather forecast, and any isolated showers will ease

:05:44.:05:45.

through the evening to give a dry night with lengthy clear spells.

:05:46.:05:48.

Tomorrow will be another fine and dry day with plenty

:05:49.:05:51.

I'll be back with our late update at around 10:50.

:05:52.:05:56.

Enjoy the rest of your evening - goodbye.

:05:57.:06:09.

It's been a fine day across many parts of the country. After a slow

:06:10.:06:15.

start, the cloud has been thinning and breaking up, leaving some decent

:06:16.:06:17.

spells of
