:04:36. > :04:40.families have been informed. The rugged beauty of the Brecon

:04:43. > :04:48.makes this such an important training ground for the British
:04:48. > :04:53.Army, including the SAS. What happened here yesterday afternoon
:04:53. > :04:57.has shocked the local community. We have got very close links with the
:04:57. > :05:00.military, we are proud of our connection to the Armed Forces, they
:05:00. > :05:05.are a major employer, so news like this cuts to the heart of the
:05:05. > :05:10.community. The Brecon Beacons is home to one of the largest live fire
:05:10. > :05:15.training areas in Britain. It is understood live ammunition was not
:05:15. > :05:20.used in the exercise. It led to the deaths of two servicemen and left a
:05:20. > :05:25.third in a serious condition. Instead, the investigation into what
:05:25. > :05:30.happened is expected to focus on the hot weather. The Brecon Beacons is a
:05:30. > :05:35.demanding training area, after the Falklands War, the general said the
:05:35. > :05:43.war was won on the training areas of the Brecon Beacons, it is that
:05:43. > :05:46.demanding. When you mix that Lorraine with some hot weather,

:05:50. > :05:56.hottest day of the year so far in Wales, with temperatures reaching 30
:05:56. > :06:00.Celsius. It seems the conditions may have taken their toll. The service

:06:56. > :07:01.not good enough. It was unnecessary. I should not have been let out.
:07:01. > :07:07.There is not enough after-care. The surgeons are wonderful. It is the
:07:07. > :07:13.after-care. He was treated at Basildon, a hospital at one of the
:07:13. > :07:18.14 trusts under review. It says it is trying to improve all aspects of
:07:18. > :07:22.care, and it will investigate fully. The trusts, which have been looked
:07:22. > :07:26.into, serve a total population of 6 million people in England. The
:07:26. > :07:30.report will look at what care is like in each trust now and what
:07:30. > :07:34.action needs to be taken. It will not have figures for how many deaths
:07:34. > :07:41.might have occurred from Paul care, that an expert who gave advice to
:07:41. > :07:44.the review had his own assessment. Looking at the 14 trusts, if you
:07:44. > :07:50.say, how many deaths would they have had had they had the national death
:07:50. > :07:55.rate, over the last five years, it would have been 13,000 fewer deaths
:07:55. > :08:02.will stop this means that we have got a number of other hospitals
:08:02. > :08:05.which are similar. Calculating mortality figures can be
:08:06. > :08:10.controversial, but the failings in Mid Staffordshire happened when high
:08:10. > :08:16.death rates were explained away, rather than used as an alarm signal
:08:16. > :08:19.which should have triggered investigation. The report, being
:08:19. > :08:23.published on Tuesday, was ordered by ministers at the Department of
:08:23. > :08:27.Health. They are under pressure to show they can get the NHS to find
:08:27. > :08:32.and deal with poor care. But questions are being asked about how
:08:32. > :08:37.far back some of these problems go. And about Labour's track record
:08:37. > :08:43.while in power. I was bringing problems into the open, rather than
:08:43. > :08:50.trying to brush them under the carpet. That is my record, I amp out
:08:50. > :08:53.of what I did. Now, it is for this government to take action to ensure
:08:53. > :08:58.standards improve at these hospitals, they have got worse on
:08:58. > :09:02.this government's watch. The government says the safety of
:09:02. > :09:07.patients remains its priority and it expects the NHS to be accountable
:09:07. > :09:12.when things go wrong. A firefighter has died after
:09:12. > :09:15.tackling a blaze in Manchester last night. Stephen Hunt was part of a

:09:31. > :09:34.air. The fire started at a company that supplies hairdressers. It
:09:34. > :09:41.appeared to be under control, but yesterday evening, something went
:09:41. > :09:44.wrong. Something happened, possibly an explosion, it is not clear. Two
:09:44. > :09:49.firefighters had to be rescued and were taken to hospital. Stephen Hunt
:09:49. > :09:57.died. His colleague was treated for burns to his hands and smoke
:09:57. > :10:01.inhalation. Stephen Hunt was 38 and a father of two teenagers. His
:10:02. > :10:07.senior officer paid tribute to him today. I have never seen
:10:07. > :10:13.firefighters so shocked and devastated. I have seen some
:10:13. > :10:18.horrendous incident over the years. That level of devastation is a
:10:18. > :10:23.testament and tribute to how liked he was. His family have released a
:10:23. > :10:29.statement, describing him as an old-fashioned gentleman. A former
:10:29. > :10:31.soldier, he was proud, they say, to be a firefighter. Two girls arrested
:10:31. > :10:38.on suspicion of manslaughter have been released on bail until
