:00:06. > :00:16.In Wales Today: How will Thursday's strikes affect
:00:16. > :00:18.
:00:18. > :00:21.you as teachers and civil servants You have to think of the bigger
:00:21. > :00:26.picture and how it is affecting everybody. The parents and kids
:00:26. > :00:35.will suffer. It will be unkind -- inconvenient for me, but I'm
:00:35. > :00:39.probably in favour of it. Other headlines tonight:
:00:39. > :00:41.The baby left without a mum and dad, killed in a crash on the M4. An
:00:41. > :00:43.inquest hears the driver probably fell asleep.
:00:43. > :00:45.Henry Clark was diagnosed with prostate cancer. Why did hospital
:00:45. > :00:48.authorities forget him and allow his disease to advance?
:00:48. > :00:50.An increase in measles - parents are urged to vaccinate their
:00:50. > :01:00.children. The daily battle of being an
:01:00. > :01:00.
:01:00. > :01:03.isolated elderly person struggling with everyday life. If my son
:01:03. > :01:06.didn't live in our house, I don't think I would eat because I can't
:01:06. > :01:09.open the gyres. In tonight's sport, Mike Phillips
:01:09. > :01:12.says sorry. He's back in the Wales squad.
:01:12. > :01:20.And a Welsh winner at Wimbledon. Evan comes through his first round
:01:20. > :01:23.in the juniors, much to his family's delight. I was almost
:01:23. > :01:33.crying this morning just thinking of them out on the court because
:01:33. > :01:39.
:01:39. > :01:42.they kept breaking each other. Good evening. Many schools and
:01:42. > :01:47.public buildings across Wales will close on Thursday as almost 40,000
:01:47. > :01:49.teachers and civil servants strike in a dispute over their pensions.
:01:49. > :01:56.Talks this afternoon between unions and the coalition government failed
:01:56. > :02:01.to reach an agreement. So, planning to take action: 20,000 members of
:02:01. > :02:05.the PCS - working in places like museums, Jobcentres and tax offices.
:02:05. > :02:08.13,000 teachers at primaries and secondaries in the NUT across Wales.
:02:08. > :02:13.And a further 3,500 members of the Association of Teachers and
:02:13. > :02:16.Lecturers. With more strikes also likely this autumn, unions say
:02:16. > :02:26.they're digging in for a "protracted dispute". Rhodri Lewis
:02:26. > :02:29.reports. A chemistry lesson at Ysgol Friars
:02:29. > :02:33.in Bangor this afternoon. But in three days' time, this lab will be
:02:33. > :02:37.silent. Half the teaching staff will be on strike, which means the
:02:37. > :02:40.school will be closed. The deputy head is one of them, and says he's
:02:40. > :02:49.taking action with a heavy heart. He says proposed changes to
:02:49. > :02:54.teachers' pensions are not necessary. We have never struck
:02:54. > :02:58.before. We have been talking rather than striking. Unfortunately in
:02:58. > :03:02.this instance, the government one willing to -- only willing to
:03:02. > :03:05.discuss the implementation of their proposals and not the content.
:03:05. > :03:08.it's not just teachers. Two other unions, including civil servants
:03:08. > :03:10.from the PCS union, will also walk out. It says the National Museums
:03:10. > :03:13.may close, along with the National Library in Aberystwyth. Jobcentres
:03:13. > :03:16.and passport offices across the country could also be affected.
:03:16. > :03:23.Then there are the big centres - the DVLA in Swansea could shut,
:03:23. > :03:28.along with the tax offices in Cardiff. We remain confident that
:03:28. > :03:31.the public will support the action. This is very much a first wave. If
:03:31. > :03:35.the government will not prepared to listen, we will continue to
:03:35. > :03:39.campaign alongside other Pep -- public sector unions and build
:03:39. > :03:41.support for the campaign necessary to stop these cuts. Talks have been
:03:41. > :03:44.going on for months over the controversial pension plans. The
:03:44. > :03:47.Government wants to move from a pension based on an employee's
:03:47. > :03:50.final salary to one based on average pay over a career. It also
:03:50. > :03:56.wants teachers to increase their contributions from 6.4% to 9.8% of
:03:56. > :03:59.their pay, while the retirement age will also rise to 68.
:03:59. > :04:03.government has said quite clearly that every contribution that has
:04:03. > :04:06.been made so far under the current arrangements will be honoured. I
:04:06. > :04:10.think it is a fair game to negotiate and discuss what happens
:04:10. > :04:13.here on -- from here on because people are living much longer.
:04:13. > :04:16.Albany Primary School in Cardiff has more than 400 pupils on its
:04:16. > :04:19.roll. None of them will be in school on Thursday. Many parents we
:04:19. > :04:26.spoke to sympathised with the teachers' cause, but said it would
:04:26. > :04:31.make life difficult for them. a lot of parents, I work time, so
:04:31. > :04:34.it is inconvenient. I have to pay extra childcare. Where do you find
:04:35. > :04:39.the extra money? It is hard times for everybody. I think everybody
:04:39. > :04:45.has a right to strike. It will be inconvenient for me, but I am
:04:45. > :04:50.probably in favour of it, I would say. When schools close in
:04:50. > :04:55.particular, because it is not just the business owners who may have
:04:56. > :05:01.children in schools but also the employers. Some businesses have
:05:01. > :05:04.less than 10 employees and so a few staff on -- off on the same day can
:05:04. > :05:07.impede productivity and some businesses may have to shut.
:05:07. > :05:10.contacted all the local authorities across Wales throughout the day.
:05:10. > :05:13.Many were still in the process of putting together a complete list of
:05:13. > :05:20.the schools closed in their area. They said the details would be on
:05:20. > :05:23.their websites. David Evans is from the national
:05:23. > :05:27.team -- Union of Teachers. This is going to cause massive disruption
:05:27. > :05:30.to parents, who are going to have to take a day off on Thursday to
:05:30. > :05:35.look after their children. What is your message to them tonight?
:05:35. > :05:40.is something we didn't want to happen. But we felt that we had no
:05:40. > :05:45.other option, given the Government's intransigence.
:05:45. > :05:50.could turn up to work on Thursday. If you go into consultation with a
:05:50. > :05:53.government can you expect this to be meaningful consultations. But
:05:53. > :05:56.the government is just going full steam ahead and refusing to
:05:56. > :06:01.consider any alternatives. They basically have announced the
:06:01. > :06:05.outcome of the consultation before that process is completed. But you
:06:05. > :06:09.announced they would be a strike before today's talks failed. You
:06:09. > :06:14.also jumped the gun today, didn't she? It was clear that there was
:06:14. > :06:17.going to be no movement. Danny Alexander had a ready-made that
:06:17. > :06:21.announcement some weeks ago that the government were basically not
:06:21. > :06:25.going to turn on this. We remain hopeful that we can still talk with
:06:25. > :06:29.them. We have been to the talks today and will continue to go any
:06:29. > :06:34.talks to that they invite us to. Some form of change in your
:06:34. > :06:38.pensions is inevitable, isn't it? We are all living longer. Everyone,
:06:38. > :06:44.teachers, and the rest of the world, have to accept that, have to accept
:06:44. > :06:49.change. Changes were made in 2007 and at that time we were told it
:06:49. > :06:54.would be an affordable system. There is an evaluation due of the
:06:54. > :06:59.current Teachers' Pension Scheme. - - a valuation. The government had
:06:59. > :07:03.refused to give us that valuation. The House of Commons Advisory
:07:03. > :07:08.Committee has confirmed and the National Audit Office has confirmed
:07:08. > :07:11.that it remains an affordable scheme.
:07:11. > :07:14.Thank you very much indeed. A grandfather probably fell asleep
:07:14. > :07:17.at the wheel of a car, which crashed killing three family
:07:17. > :07:20.members, an inquest has heard. Stephen Padden, his son Tom and
:07:20. > :07:23.partner Louise all died in the accident on the M4 in January. None
:07:23. > :07:29.of them were wearing seat belts. The couple's baby son Logan was
:07:29. > :07:32.pulled from the wreckage by his grandmother. Caroline Evans reports.
:07:32. > :07:34.Lousie Evans, Tom Padden and their six-month-old baby Logan were on
:07:34. > :07:41.their way back from a surfing holiday in Morrocco with Tom's
:07:41. > :07:44.parents when they were killed in a crash on the M4. Today, their
:07:44. > :07:51.families came to Cardiff Coroner's Court to hear what happened just
:07:51. > :07:54.before midnight on January 17th as the family headed home from Gatwick.
:07:54. > :07:59.They were told Stephen Padden, who was driving, had probably fallen
:07:59. > :08:06.asleep. He, Louise and Tom, who were in the back, were not wearing
:08:06. > :08:10.seat belts and were thrown from the car.
:08:10. > :08:16.No Rees, Thomas and Stephen passed away as a result of a tragic
:08:16. > :08:18.accident. They dare has left a huge void in the lives of so many. All
:08:18. > :08:22.family members would like to thank everyone for their support and
:08:22. > :08:26.would also like to thank the press and media for the sensitive way in
:08:26. > :08:29.which the incident has been reported but now ask to be left to
:08:29. > :08:32.grieve together. Their baby, Logan, survived despite the car repeatedly
:08:32. > :08:40.rolling over. Back in April, as Porthcawl turned out to raise money
:08:40. > :08:44.for him, his auntie told us how the family was coping. We are pulling
:08:44. > :08:48.together. Obviously Tom's family as well and we're trying to get
:08:48. > :08:52.together as many things as we can. The whole of the committee has
:08:52. > :08:54.really pull together to help our whole family, especially Logan.
:08:55. > :08:57.Today, his grandmother, Suzanne Padden, who pulled him from the
:08:58. > :09:01.wreckage, told the court how their flight home had been delayed by
:09:01. > :09:04.five hours, and she had offered to help with the driving. But despite
:09:04. > :09:09.having complained of being tired on holiday, Stephen Padden had decided
:09:10. > :09:13.to do it all. One eyewitness, Gemma Beveridge, said as she saw the car
:09:13. > :09:19.move from lane to lane, she wasn't sure whether it was beign driven by
:09:19. > :09:23.boy racers or the driver had fallen alseep. She broke down when she
:09:23. > :09:32.described how she had been handed baby Logan to look after at the
:09:32. > :09:36.roadside. Recording a verdict of accidental death, the coroner said
:09:36. > :09:40.it was extremely likely that Stephen Padden had fallen asleep at
:09:40. > :09:45.the wheel and that this is what had caused the accident. To compound
:09:45. > :09:51.this, she said, he, Tom And Louise were not wearing seatbelts. She
:09:51. > :09:54.pointed to the fact that the other two occupants of the car, Cezanne
:09:54. > :09:57.and six-month-old Logan, who was strapped in, survived.
:09:57. > :10:00.A Gloucestershire engineering firm has bought the Bosch site at Miskin
:10:00. > :10:03.in the Vale of Glamorgan. Production at the motor parts plant
:10:03. > :10:06.is due to end tomorrow, and the company which is buying the site,
:10:06. > :10:10.Renishaw, has said there's nothing in its sale agreement about taking
:10:10. > :10:13.on the remaining 489 members of the Bosch workforce.
:10:13. > :10:17.And we'll have a full report on the last day of manufacturing at Bosch,
:10:17. > :10:25.marking the end of an era for the car industry here, on tomorrow's
:10:25. > :10:28.programme. A local health board has been criticised for serious
:10:28. > :10:33.failings of the failure to carry out regular check-ups on a patient
:10:33. > :10:38.diagnosed with cancer. Henry Clarke from nothing Pembrokeshire had the
:10:38. > :10:42.early stages of prostate cancer. By the time he was finally seen, more
:10:42. > :10:47.than a year later, the disease had spread.
:10:47. > :10:50.Any car was diagnosed with prostate cancer three years ago. It was
:10:50. > :10:53.treatable and he trusted doctors at West Wales General Hospital in
:10:53. > :10:57.Carmarthen to be on top of things. But when the all important follow-
:10:57. > :11:02.up appointment for another biopsy didn't materialise within a year,
:11:02. > :11:09.he got back in touch. Eventually someone did contact the consultant
:11:09. > :11:14.and they arranged another biopsy date. When I went to that, they
:11:14. > :11:20.treated me as though I was a new patient. They didn't seem to know
:11:20. > :11:27.anything about my case. So I spoke to the nurse and told her the
:11:27. > :11:32.background and she went off to get the consultants. He came back and
:11:32. > :11:36.read some documents and said, it is OK, you're scan is all right. Then
:11:36. > :11:44.somebody pointed out that he was reading from the previous results.
:11:44. > :11:50.So he rushed off and got the second result and told me that the cancer
:11:50. > :11:56.had spread from the prostate into the body, which was devastating at
:11:56. > :12:01.the time. The public services ombudsman criticised the health
:12:01. > :12:04.board for fundamental failings in their urology department. He said
:12:04. > :12:09.Patience' conditions were not taken into account when prioritising
:12:09. > :12:13.appointments. The hospital blames illness and staff shortages for
:12:13. > :12:20.long waiting lists. But the ombudsman said nothing was done to
:12:20. > :12:23.address the backlog. There are up two other similar cases. Because of
:12:23. > :12:27.the risk to public health and safety, we thought it was important
:12:27. > :12:32.to engage health inspection Wales before we completed our
:12:32. > :12:35.investigation. When you've got a wee without proper appointments in
:12:35. > :12:40.cancer, clearly that is a matter of great concern. The health board has
:12:41. > :12:45.now been told to pay �3,000 to Mr Clarke for the distress caused.
:12:45. > :12:49.don't know what the future holds. Nobody does. I suppose my is in
:12:49. > :12:53.more in jeopardy now than it would have been. The local health board
:12:53. > :12:56.says it fully accepts the ombudsman's findings and is
:12:56. > :13:06.reviewing its out-patient list to make sure all patients are seen at
:13:06. > :13:08.
:13:08. > :13:11.You are watching Wales Today at 6:45pm. We are hitting the road
:13:11. > :13:16.with a traffic officers who are being trained to make sure the A55
:13:16. > :13:22.keeps running smoothly. He took charge of the greats with
:13:22. > :13:29.the best seat in the house. Media empire back at the All-England Club.

:13:37. > :13:41.Would this do words please open the gates now. -- would this do words.
:13:41. > :13:45.There has been an outbreak of measles in Ceredigion. Public
:13:45. > :13:48.Health Wales says 10 cases have been reported in the county while
:13:48. > :13:52.another 20 cases are spread across the country. It is urging parents
:13:52. > :13:59.to ensure their children have been given the MMR vaccine to protect
:13:59. > :14:05.them. Dr Dirk Dr Roland Salmon is from Public Health Wales. -- Dr Dr
:14:05. > :14:10.Roland Salmon. There is a bake outbreak in Europe
:14:10. > :14:13.and cases are starting to come into Wales. This is the opportunity we
:14:13. > :14:22.have to call on parents to get their children vaccinated before we
:14:22. > :14:28.see a really a rather -- large numbers. We have 30 cases, how
:14:28. > :14:36.significant is it? It is significant because we know that
:14:36. > :14:42.their numbers of older children have not been vaccinated. Life
:14:42. > :14:46.moves on. Perhaps they have put this to one side. Now is the time,
:14:46. > :14:54.if your child has has been vaccinated, to arrange it with the
:14:54. > :15:01.doctor. Measles is highly contagious. It is highly contagious
:15:01. > :15:06.and a highly serious disease. MMR vaccine take-up in Wales have
:15:06. > :15:13.traditionally not been as high as it might be. Your message tonight
:15:13. > :15:16.would be what? Our message would be this is a safe and effective
:15:16. > :15:21.vaccine, please have it. Most people accept that now that they
:15:21. > :15:25.did not a few years ago. There is a legacy of people who missed out at
:15:25. > :15:31.the time are touted who have not got around to doing it since. It is
:15:31. > :15:35.those we are talking about. 21 new traffic officers began
:15:35. > :15:40.training today to help ease congestion on the A55 in North
:15:40. > :15:45.Wales. The civilian staff will patrol the carriageway to clear up
:15:45. > :15:51.minor accidents and keep traffic moving. They replied Ms follows a
:15:51. > :15:53.six-month trial which help to reduce pressure on traffic police.
:15:53. > :15:58.-- their appointment follows a six- month trial.
:15:58. > :16:02.We should starts seeing a few more vehicles like the one behind wheat
:16:02. > :16:06.dotted along the A55 over the coming months. Let's speak to the
:16:06. > :16:12.network manager for the trunk road agency. Why do we need these
:16:12. > :16:16.officers? It will enable rows policing units to be deployed on
:16:16. > :16:21.criminality matters on the highway network. We will deal with minor
:16:21. > :16:28.rate -- road traffic accidents such as collisions, broken-down vehicles
:16:28. > :16:32.which will enable us to recover the network more quickly. Is to lead to
:16:33. > :16:38.a free-flowing traffic on the A55. These are civilians. What kind of
:16:38. > :16:44.powers will they have? They have some powers which will enable them
:16:44. > :16:51.to stop than direct traffic, enable them to run a rolling the
:16:51. > :16:55.roadblocks. But they will have enabled road closures. They do not
:16:55. > :16:58.have enforcement powers. It is an offence to disregard the
:16:58. > :17:02.instructions of a traffic officer. A similar scheme has been running
:17:02. > :17:08.on the M4 and Cardiff. What difference should we see on the
:17:08. > :17:13.Rose? We have been running a limited trial for 22 months. That
:17:13. > :17:16.trial has been evaluated and it has shown great benefit in terms of
:17:16. > :17:20.safety and economic benefits to North Wales. On the basis of that
:17:20. > :17:25.we have had funding to develop that service to a similar level of that
:17:25. > :17:30.operating in South Wales. Thank you very much.
:17:31. > :17:34.The Prince of Wales has begun his annual week-long tour. He visited
:17:34. > :17:38.businesses in Aberdare the where he unveiled a new community Bell on
:17:38. > :17:43.the jetty. This afternoon it was on to the Centre for Alternative
:17:44. > :17:47.Technology near Machynlleth. Our mid Wales reporter was there.
:17:47. > :17:56.Promoting Welsh tourism and encouraging sustainability are two
:17:56. > :18:00.of the Prince's priorities for this week's visit. After unveiling a
:18:00. > :18:07.replica of the bell which will sound as the tide comes in at a but
:18:08. > :18:12.deadly, the Prince enjoyed a stroll along the beach. -- at Aberdare the.
:18:12. > :18:17.Prince Charles visited a few local businesses including this cafe.
:18:17. > :18:23.He spoke to the staff and to the family, asked about their GCSEs and
:18:23. > :18:28.what they were doing in college. He had a cup of tea and spoke about
:18:28. > :18:32.the produce, the cheeses. After finishing on the coast, the Prince
:18:32. > :18:36.was off to the Centre for alternative Technology up in the
:18:36. > :18:43.hills above Machynlleth. He got chatting to a group of
:18:43. > :18:47.schoolchildren. I asked him if Buckingham Palace is eco-friendly.
:18:47. > :18:53.He said he doesn't know because he does not live there. He does know
:18:53. > :19:02.it is the most eco-friendly place. A we were talking about our eco-
:19:02. > :19:09.friendly our school was. We had lots of electricity and we didn't
:19:09. > :19:17.say that match. I felt, sort of nerve first but excited at the same
:19:17. > :19:22.time. He will be our future king. The Prince also spends time
:19:22. > :19:29.chatting to the gardeners. It has lovely that he wanted to come and
:19:29. > :19:35.visit. He has got a large organic Guardian himself. We showed him the
:19:35. > :19:41.technique of Forres gardening. Prince Charles is hosting a
:19:41. > :19:45.reception at his home this evening. Imagine being trapped inside your
:19:45. > :19:49.home on your own all day without being able to talk to anyone else
:19:49. > :19:53.and only having the TV and radio for company. That is what 10
:19:53. > :20:01.volunteers have been doing for the past week in a social experiment to
:20:02. > :20:08.highlight how lonely some older people can be.
:20:08. > :20:13.Very difficult to get at it. simple task for most of us, getting
:20:13. > :20:19.a scone out, adding the butter and jam. It isn't when it you wear
:20:19. > :20:23.glasses that may make partial blindness. It is very
:20:23. > :20:28.disorientating, I can't make out what things are. It is one task
:20:28. > :20:32.made difficult. She was one of the volunteers to challenge themselves
:20:32. > :20:36.to go for a week without human contact. She was glad to be back at
