Good evening. Coming up: The agonising wait, 16 months in limbo | :00:12. | :00:15. | |
for islanders needing life changing operations. | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
Plas y eight more young people are worried about the roof over their | :00:18. | :00:28. | |
:00:28. | :00:31. | ||
heads. It is an eye-opener. People are not living in the family home. | :00:32. | :00:36. | |
And the birds are threatened with extinction, making its home in the | :00:36. | :00:46. | |
:00:46. | :00:51. | ||
Ireland is in Jersey could have to wait up to 16 months for serious | :00:51. | :00:55. | |
operations such as hip and knee replacements. Today, half the | :00:55. | :01:00. | |
executives were outlining their budget. It could take up to eight | :01:00. | :01:05. | |
months to see a consultant and the same time again until an operation. | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
National Health Service hospitals are not alone in their battle to | :01:08. | :01:13. | |
reduce waiting times. Figures revealed a today show islanders | :01:13. | :01:19. | |
could wait up to eight months for an orthopaedic operation. That is | :01:19. | :01:23. | |
after a similar timescale to see a consultant. Jersey's Assistant | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
Health Minister admitted it wasn't good enough. If I will be downbeat | :01:27. | :01:33. | |
about it, a book take us 10 years to get to the point where we are | :01:33. | :01:40. | |
having services are on demand. There's always a wait for a | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
pinnacle time but we must get that down to a reasonable time. They | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
intend to increase services in the community to release pressure on | :01:49. | :01:53. | |
hospital beds. They want to continue to develop services within | :01:53. | :01:58. | |
the hospital and build a new hospital either on the existing | :01:58. | :02:02. | |
site or a new location. It is a strategy they are confident will | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
work. We have been doing a lot of hard work in the last 18 months to | :02:06. | :02:12. | |
understand what the different challenges are, working with our | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
doctors and nurses to understand what we need to do and in what | :02:16. | :02:22. | |
order to continue providing good quality services. Not everyone is | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
convinced. I am concerned. It is something that has been on my mind | :02:26. | :02:31. | |
for a while. This morning's hearing gave me an opportunity to explore | :02:31. | :02:36. | |
questions around that issue. Nothing I was told today has come | :02:36. | :02:43. | |
fitted me to believe that but anything happen in the near future. | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
Fending any improvements incurs a cost. | :02:47. | :02:52. | |
Today the health department admitted the private money had | :02:52. | :02:58. | |
increased. What percentage of private operations are prioritised | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
over public Patients and what impact will that have on hospital | :03:02. | :03:08. | |
waiting lists? It is hoped Guernsey's electricity | :03:08. | :03:13. | |
cable link will be restored within the next few weeks. This for | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
dissection of cable has been fixed. Last month another problem surfaced | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
at a sub-station. Elect Christie has been generated | :03:20. | :03:26. | |
here in the island while experts look at how -- look at what went on. | :03:26. | :03:33. | |
-- electricians have been looking at how it is generated here. More | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
and more young people are worried about housing. The Youth Enquiry | :03:37. | :03:43. | |
Service which provides advice for 14 to 25 year has reported a surge | :03:43. | :03:52. | |
in requests for help. -- Old s mac. A place where adults | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
can share their problems. For some, the service is the only place. | :03:56. | :04:01. | |
These people want to stay anonymous but told me without the help from | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
the service, their lives would be different. They have helped me find | :04:05. | :04:11. | |
a place to live. They have helped me with the a few different issues | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
with different people. They have helped me with my confidence as | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
well. Through certain things I have done with them, I have got a clear | :04:20. | :04:27. | |
idea of what I want to do work choirs. She is not alone. The Youth | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
Enquiry Service has seen an increase in the amount of young | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
people registering with them. Since September last year, the service | :04:34. | :04:40. | |
has had nearly 1800 visits by young people. They have referred 103 to | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
counselling. Sometimes the issues for young people are very basic. | :04:44. | :04:48. | |
The housing issue is a big one for us. We have a lot of young people | :04:48. | :04:54. | |
who can't live at home or won't live at home. That has been an eye- | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
opener for us, seeing being people their stay on sofas, that stay with | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
friends and ONS living in the family home. This teenager was one | :05:03. | :05:13. | |
:05:13. | :05:14. | ||
of those people until the surface helps her. -- service helped have. | :05:14. | :05:20. | |
I didn't know what to do. I moved round every week. I had nowhere to | :05:20. | :05:25. | |
go. I came in here and it has changed my life. If I wasn't here, | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
I would be still in the same position. As more people register, | :05:30. | :05:39. | |
space ONS -- spaces at the hostas - - hostels and shelters are reducing. | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
There are places they can go to if they are supported financially to | :05:43. | :05:49. | |
do that. There is a bit of a gap in that service and we need more of it | :05:49. | :05:56. | |
for's stop with a shortage of pouncing, and a downturn in the | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
economy, it is a challenging time for a young people. | :06:00. | :06:07. | |
They are expecting an increase in their demand for their services. | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
A hundred and 50 new jobs could be created over the coming months in | :06:11. | :06:16. | |
Jersey if 3 Newtown restaurants are licence. St Helier Parish Assembly | :06:16. | :06:21. | |
has supported application for premises in the Chicago Rock | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
premises and the old Victoria Club. Final approval could be granted was | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
the end of the month. Both the Channel Islands has a new | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
man overseeing them following the British Prime Minister's cabinet | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
reshuffle. Chris Grayling is replacing Ken Clarke as Justice | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
Secretary. He is regarded as being politically to the right of Ken | :06:40. | :06:47. | |
Clarke on these issues. A man has been taken to the | :06:47. | :06:52. | |
Princess Elizabeth hospital after falling from a rooftop to stop all | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
three emergency services were called out. It is believed the man | :06:56. | :07:04. | |
fell 10 feet and his condition isn't life threatening. | :07:04. | :07:09. | |
Later, our viewers cameras catch up with the former Royal Marine on a | :07:09. | :07:17. | |
round Britain cycle challenge. Good luck to him. | :07:17. | :07:21. | |
Rock stars are -- have probably seen some outrageous things but | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
Imogen Noel Gallagher's surprise when this jumped out of his guitar | :07:25. | :07:33. | |
case. This green Fang and Spider identified as a tunnel Web species | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
caused the area to be quarantined. Experts say it is not a richly | :07:37. | :07:42. | |
native but can be found in Jersey and can have a rather nasty bite. | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
If it would buy it a kid on the arm, it probably would get through and | :07:47. | :07:53. | |
then you had -- and it would probably head for an hour. It is | :07:53. | :07:59. | |
similar to a bee sting. It depends on how sensitive people are. Some | :07:59. | :08:04. | |
people hardly react at all. Some get a nasty bump and some bread to | :08:04. | :08:13. | |
ness. It is not dangerous. -- red colour. | :08:13. | :08:18. | |
A rare bird could soon be back on our coastlines. They are currently | :08:18. | :08:28. | |
:08:28. | :08:35. | ||
They died out around the end of the 19th century the rather Channel | :08:35. | :08:44. | |
Islands. We don't know why. It wasn't particularly documented. | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
Nobody recorded what happened to them and where they disappeared. | :08:47. | :08:54. | |
The plaque -- plan is to release 30 or 40 birds. Before we can do that, | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
we need to have a better understanding of what the birds | :08:58. | :09:04. | |
require. We can guess. These birds are going to be released at some | :09:04. | :09:14. | |
point soon and they are going to have radio transmitters on them. | :09:14. | :09:20. | |
They will go where they want to go. It is a trial. Their job is to tell | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
us what they want in life. They don't breed until they are three | :09:23. | :09:30. | |
years old. It will be a couple of years before they start breeding. | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
Then within five or six years, we are not bothering to feed them any | :09:34. | :09:44. | |
:09:44. | :09:48. | ||
more. They will be a wild bird in We do have some good weather to | :09:48. | :09:53. | |
come during the week ahead. A little bit of drizzle to get out of | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
the way tonight. There has been a week weather front bringing its way | :09:58. | :10:02. | |
down. And over cast start to the day tomorrow. It continues to make | :10:02. | :10:07. | |
its way southwards. Improving throughout the day. Once that | :10:07. | :10:14. | |
clears the way, we have high pressure for the rest of the week. | :10:14. | :10:21. | |
For tonight, it does look like it is going to cloud over overnight. | :10:21. | :10:27. | |
There could be a few spots of light rain. With the cloud, a fairly mild | :10:27. | :10:34. | |
night. Temperatures around 14 Celsius. It is an over cast start | :10:34. | :10:40. | |
to the day. Throughout the morning, it does improve. By the time we get | :10:40. | :10:45. | |
to the end of the day, there is plenty of sunshine around. A bit of | :10:45. | :10:50. | |
a breeze to start with. It should feel pleasant enough with highs of | :10:50. | :11:00. | |
:11:00. | :11:27. | ||
A cloudy start to tomorrow but sunshine by the end of the day. | :11:27. | :11:37. | |
:11:37. | :11:39. | ||
That sets us up for plenty of sunshine to come. A cooler feel for | :11:39. | :11:43. |
