:00:10. > :00:13.Welcome to Wales Today. Tonight: A special report on the starving
:00:13. > :00:17.horses roaming parts of south Wales. We uncover evidence of neglected
:00:17. > :00:27.animals being left to die. In an exclusive interview with one of the
:00:27. > :00:36.
:00:36. > :00:39.main breeders in Wales, he denies Also on the programme:
:00:39. > :00:43.The changing face of Cardiff. Plans for the largest expansion of the
:00:43. > :00:47.city in 60 years. Messages for April Jones. Not
:00:47. > :00:56.forgotten among classmates. The five year old has been missing for
:00:56. > :00:59.24 days. It is getting harder as the weeks are getting on. The
:00:59. > :01:02.children know Christmas is coming and things like that. The questions
:01:02. > :01:08.are getting harder. We may be out of recession, but
:01:08. > :01:11.what hope of a job for these apprentices?
:01:11. > :01:21.And celebrating Africa's links with Wales. The rapturous welcome for
:01:21. > :01:24.
:01:24. > :01:29.Archbishop Desmond Tutu. It was so rousing. Be touched my heart very
:01:29. > :01:32.Good evening. The Welsh government has told Wales Today it's
:01:32. > :01:34.considering new laws to deal with the problem of stray horses. It
:01:34. > :01:40.follows widespread reports of unscrupulous owners breeding huge
:01:40. > :01:43.numbers of animals they simply can't afford to keep or feed. It
:01:43. > :01:46.leads to a problem known as fly- grazing. There are claims one
:01:46. > :01:49.breeder of gypsy cobs is allegedly using threats and intimidation to
:01:49. > :01:52.take over family farms so his horses have somewhere to graze.
:01:52. > :02:02.Nick Palit has been investigating this story over the last few months.
:02:02. > :02:03.
:02:03. > :02:07.You may find pictures in his report distressing.
:02:07. > :02:12.Fields of the forgotten of foals far away from prying eyes. Here,
:02:12. > :02:16.only the strongest survive. Those who are weak or go hungry for and
:02:16. > :02:22.die. This is the annual welfare cost of horse-breeding that has
:02:22. > :02:26.been allowed to continue and regulated. I first reported on this
:02:26. > :02:30.earlier this year. That is when horses are left to graze on other
:02:30. > :02:35.people's land or common land, often breaking out on to the public
:02:35. > :02:40.highway in search of food. Those trying to help the animals say they
:02:40. > :02:45.daren't speak on camera for fear of reprisals from owners. They took me
:02:45. > :02:51.on a tour of fields around Bridgend where I was met by horrific scenes.
:02:51. > :02:56.Here, the skill of an adult course that literally starved to death. It
:02:56. > :03:00.is one of four when this very field alone. And three dead phones. A
:03:00. > :03:06.graphic illustration of the problems that chocolate -- fly-
:03:06. > :03:10.grazing is causing. The RSPCA say calls about forces is their biggest
:03:10. > :03:15.issue in parts of South Wales. The charity released this picture of
:03:15. > :03:20.four dead phones dumped with rubbish. We have blurred the image
:03:20. > :03:26.as it was so distressing. It is not clear how they died. For the police,
:03:27. > :03:31.straight courses with the biggest problem until now. But as the
:03:31. > :03:35.number of horses continues to rise, unscrupulous owners has debt to a
:03:35. > :03:41.gear in their search for a free grazing land. Fly-grazing seems to
:03:42. > :03:46.have become a business model employed by some gypsy breeders to
:03:46. > :03:52.take over control of land on family farms from their rightful owners.
:03:52. > :03:57.This is often done through threats and intimidation. Now one man has
:03:57. > :04:02.had the courage to speak out. have had to pay rent on the ground
:04:02. > :04:06.on the will not take his horses away. He is a second generation,
:04:06. > :04:14.who has worked this land for more than half a century. He is
:04:14. > :04:19.embroiled in a dispute with a credo of Welsh gypsy horses. He was
:04:19. > :04:25.driving. He had his son here. He was in my face, shouting at me, we
:04:25. > :04:29.are putting our horses here. It is our farm, we can do what we like.
:04:29. > :04:34.His family had some business dealings with gypsy traders in the
:04:34. > :04:39.past, so when he first allowed the man to run gun for his forces, he
:04:39. > :04:43.believed all would be well. But the numbers grow to 160 are many asked
:04:43. > :04:49.for them to be removed, the man refused. He alleges that threats
:04:49. > :04:54.then followed. I have had no money off him. I don't know which way to
:04:54. > :05:01.turn. By have been very down. You feel like sometimes you just want
:05:01. > :05:06.to end it. It has been hard on my family, as well. By have got two in
:05:06. > :05:11.daughters and my wife. She can see the difference in me. It has
:05:11. > :05:16.virtually ruined by business. farm houses now a virtual fortress.
:05:16. > :05:20.The police have installed alarms on doors and windows. If I press the
:05:20. > :05:25.button, it will go straight to the police station. That is for my
:05:25. > :05:31.mother. Plus they put fire alarms and smoke detectors in here. Tammy
:05:31. > :05:35.what it has been like living like this. -- tell me what it has been
:05:35. > :05:39.like. Murder. It is worrying to think we have got to live like this.
:05:39. > :05:44.We are blamed for everything and it is not true. We wanted to talk to
:05:44. > :05:48.him about the allegations, but initially, he refused to comment.
:05:48. > :05:53.Finally, after months of pursuing him, he decided to tell his side of
:05:53. > :05:58.the story. He said he had a gentleman's agreement and has paid
:05:58. > :06:02.rent for the land until next September. I have been paying him
:06:02. > :06:07.�10,800 for those fears for I don't know how long exactly, but at least
:06:07. > :06:12.12 years. It has been OK until he has been offered more money. Isn't
:06:12. > :06:17.that business? Yes, but you don't spit on the people who have been
:06:17. > :06:21.good to you. He said the horses are there now because of threats and
:06:21. > :06:26.intimidation by you. Why doesn't go to the police? He said he has and
:06:26. > :06:29.he has had to put in security measures. That is a lot of rubbish.
:06:29. > :06:33.We have had to go to the police because he is letting our horses
:06:33. > :06:39.out on the road. The police have had to put in panic alarms by
:06:39. > :06:42.actions by yourself and your family. It is not by me and my family. We
:06:43. > :06:49.have not been there for 12 months. For you to remove your horses from
:06:49. > :06:52.his land, what would he have to do? I am not moving them until the
:06:52. > :06:57.first of 20th September 13. When that comes up, I will go. Could he
:06:57. > :07:02.pay you back to get him of their sooner? The I don't want the money,
:07:02. > :07:06.I want the ground. There are people all over the Vale and Bridgend who
:07:06. > :07:11.have dealings with horses and fly- grazing. I cannot help but if
:07:11. > :07:16.somebody has not got any gets. I'm not afraid of anybody, but I don't
:07:16. > :07:21.want any trouble. All I want to do is be left to get on with what I
:07:21. > :07:23.want to do. The Conservative leader in the Assembly is a farmer and
:07:23. > :07:28.says annual welfare and intimidation are not the only
:07:28. > :07:32.issues and has urged police to investigate in -- investigate
:07:32. > :07:39.claims that some horse-trading is linked to a criminality and tax
:07:39. > :07:44.evasion. Instead of hard cash trading hands, a certain number of
:07:44. > :07:47.horses would change hands. That concerns me. That is out of the
:07:47. > :07:51.barometer of law and I would hope that the authorities would look
:07:52. > :07:56.into the issue. It is clear that comprises not responsible for all
:07:56. > :08:02.the gypsy horses that have the welfare issues, but with estimates
:08:02. > :08:07.of up to 100 -- 1000 horses under his stewardship, it is hard for him
:08:07. > :08:11.to take track of all of them. How seriously do you take annual
:08:11. > :08:14.welfare? I would feed the horses before I feed myself. Legislation
:08:15. > :08:18.it be put in place to address the issue because the current
:08:18. > :08:22.legislation is bound to be wanting. Mr Davies hopes to raise the issue
:08:22. > :08:26.in the Assembly and has drafted a proposed and not offer before
:08:26. > :08:31.consideration. South Wales Police so they continue to work with our
:08:31. > :08:35.partners to tackle this ongoing problem but in the meantime, some
:08:35. > :08:38.unscrupulous horse traders fear that the law, invade the taxman and
:08:38. > :08:41.have scant regard for Animal Welfare.
:08:41. > :08:43.I'm joined now from Monmouthshire by Jenny MacGregor, who's chair of
:08:43. > :08:46.the Society for the Welfare of Horses and Ponies, looking after
:08:46. > :08:49.rescued animals. As the law stands, all horses are supposed to be
:08:49. > :08:59.micro-chipped. That came in three years ago, but that clearly isn't
:08:59. > :09:00.
:09:00. > :09:07.happening. Sadly not. Because the law is there,
:09:07. > :09:14.but it is just not being enforced. What has gone wrong? I think you
:09:14. > :09:18.probably have to ask the various bodies that are responsible for
:09:18. > :09:23.making a law work. By gather that it is mainly the trading standards.
:09:23. > :09:28.So probably, you had best ask them that question. But problems have
:09:28. > :09:32.you seen on the ground? Our problem is that when we come across an
:09:32. > :09:37.annual that is in the dummy on the really taking the sick and injured
:09:37. > :09:42.and malnourished, is we never cannot find an owner. And so, if
:09:42. > :09:48.they were microchip, and registered with a central database because
:09:48. > :09:51.sadly, the ruck some microchips that are being bought and put in
:09:51. > :09:55.that aren't registered anywhere except the owner knows that there
:09:55. > :10:01.are his. So that has to be tightened up on the law has to be
:10:01. > :10:08.enforced. Some horses will no change hands for as little as �5.
:10:08. > :10:16.We can see that force behind do you behaving himself. Tell us his story.
:10:16. > :10:19.We were asked by the local county council to take him in. He was only
:10:19. > :10:22.five months old and was in a field with a lot of others. He had not
:10:22. > :10:25.got a mother and he was being bullied. He could never get to the
:10:25. > :10:31.fruiter that was probably inadequate anyway, but he was
:10:31. > :10:34.looking very sorry for himself. And so we said we were taking in and
:10:34. > :10:40.after five months, when he was five months, he has grown to what he is
:10:40. > :10:47.now, which is a lovely little chap. Some are not as lucky. Boyd -- why
:10:48. > :10:52.are so many people breeding horses? I suspect it is Grade, mainly.
:10:52. > :10:57.Because for whatever reason, they managed to sell some of them for
:10:58. > :11:02.large sums of money. I think it is irresponsible. As I have always
:11:02. > :11:06.said to anybody that breeds a lot, you have got to have a plan. When
:11:06. > :11:08.you break them, you have got to know what the future is. Thank you
:11:08. > :11:11.very much. More on that Welsh government
:11:11. > :11:14.response tonight. The Deputy Minister responsible for
:11:14. > :11:19.agriculture says he wants to meet the police and local councils to
:11:19. > :11:21.discuss the problem. On tomorrow night's programme, in the second of
:11:21. > :11:27.Nick Palit's special reports, he'll be looking at the ongoing welfare
:11:27. > :11:31.issues. He found a horse being kept in the backyard of a small terraced
:11:31. > :11:38.house. On a brighter note, we'll hear from those involved in a
:11:38. > :11:41.fostering scheme helping nurse neglected animals back to health.
:11:41. > :11:44.Councillors in Cardiff are voting tonight on plans for the biggest
:11:44. > :11:47.expansion of the city since the 1950s. If they're approved, the
:11:48. > :11:50.number of new homes in the city could rise by a quarter over the
:11:50. > :12:00.next 14 years. But there are big concerns, as our business
:12:00. > :12:02.
:12:02. > :12:06.correspondent Nick Servini reports. Cardiff has seen plenty of boom
:12:06. > :12:11.times in the past. These images from the 1960s show how the capital
:12:11. > :12:16.had grown after the war. Now, the council says it plans a rate of
:12:16. > :12:23.growth not seen in decades. Under these projections, 38,000 new homes
:12:23. > :12:27.could be built between now and 2026. On the population will increase by
:12:27. > :12:32.58,000. That is about the size of the population of the County
:12:32. > :12:37.Borough of Merthyr. Big changes are ahead. But do people want them?
:12:37. > :12:41.roads are not as good as they used to be. There are so many cards on
:12:41. > :12:46.the -- cars on the road. They have got to have more housing, but I do
:12:46. > :12:50.not agree with the fact that they are taking over the green. There is
:12:50. > :12:56.plenty of inner-city housing where they can build. There is a shortage
:12:56. > :13:00.of houses in Cardiff. And I think they should carry on with it.
:13:00. > :13:07.proposals include two large developments on green field sites.
:13:07. > :13:12.8,000 homes in the north-east of the city, seven and half 1000 in
:13:12. > :13:18.the West and more homes again on the western edge. If a city is
:13:19. > :13:23.going to become what we want to be, which is a city of global renown, a
:13:23. > :13:27.European capital city, then it has to grow. Cities that do not grow
:13:27. > :13:33.died. Expansion in Cardiff is proportionately bigger than many of
:13:33. > :13:38.its neighbouring authorities. So, is the capital taking on too much?
:13:38. > :13:41.Politically, it is impossible for Cardiff to accommodate all of the
:13:41. > :13:47.future growth in homes. Politically impossible. Because it would
:13:47. > :13:51.involve building on green space. And local people will resent that
:13:51. > :13:56.and they will protest. And therefore, I think we should make a
:13:56. > :14:00.virtue of necessity and split the growth between the City and at the
:14:00. > :14:04.neighbouring at authorities in the region. The rush hour this morning.
:14:04. > :14:09.It is a reminder that more people will put pressure on a transport
:14:09. > :14:13.infrastructure that is already stretched by more than 70,000
:14:13. > :14:17.people who commute into the city every day. There are some serious
:14:17. > :14:22.warnings in the is plans about increases in future traffic
:14:22. > :14:26.congestion. Average the journey times by car could increase by as
:14:26. > :14:31.much as 40%. So the main focus for investment by the council is going
:14:31. > :14:36.to be a into bus lanes. But of course, the flipside to that is
:14:36. > :14:40.that there is less capacity on the roads for cars. Tonight's vote is
:14:40. > :14:44.not the end of the matter. There will now be a public consultation
:14:44. > :14:47.and more detailed work before the first brick is laid.
:14:47. > :14:50.Police have made a renewed appeal for information following a fire in
:14:50. > :14:52.Prestatyn which killed four members of the same family. Detectives want
:14:52. > :14:55.to hear from people nearby, especially those who may have
:14:55. > :14:57.filmed the fire on a mobile phone. 20-year-old Lee-Anna Shiers, her
:14:57. > :15:05.15-month-old son Charlie, four- year-old nephew Bailey Allen and
:15:05. > :15:07.two-year-old niece Skye died after the blaze on Friday.
:15:07. > :15:11.Dyfed-Powys Police are appealing for information after a 19-year-old
:15:11. > :15:16.woman was sexually assaulted within the grounds of Lampeter University.
:15:16. > :15:20.It happened in the early hours of Tuesday morning. Police are looking
:15:20. > :15:27.for a man described as 5ft 6 with short brown hair and aged between
:15:27. > :15:30.17 and 25 years old. 24 days since April Jones went
:15:30. > :15:32.missing and police say the intensity of their search for the
:15:32. > :15:35.five year old continues. 17 teams are scouring more than 300
:15:35. > :15:45.locations around Machynlleth, a town still coming to terms with her
:15:45. > :15:47.
:15:48. > :15:52.disappearance. Hywel Griffith reports.
:15:52. > :15:57.At first light, they start again. After more than 44,000 hours of
:15:57. > :16:01.searching, there is still no end to the biggest police operation in a
:16:01. > :16:06.quarter of a century. What is remarkable is the officers from all
:16:06. > :16:10.over the country who have come here should -- here a desire to find
:16:10. > :16:15.April Jones. We here the same common goal. And you know her
:16:15. > :16:18.family are watching and waiting. Absolutely. April Jones went
:16:18. > :16:26.missing on October 1st. She had been playing with friends outside
:16:26. > :16:30.her home. A man has been charged with her abduction and murder.

:16:33. > :16:36.help the children express the emotions they have been feeling
:16:37. > :16:44.over the last rain half weeks. This area has been set aside for them to
:16:44. > :16:48.come and sit quietly and reflect. Some children are three and a half.
:16:49. > :16:53.They are not even writing. Every pupil has made a message. The head
:16:53. > :16:58.teacher has been trying to slowly bring back some kind of normality
:16:58. > :17:03.to school life. Outside in the town, it is not normal. It is getting
:17:03. > :17:07.harder as the weeks are going on and the children are asking about,
:17:07. > :17:12.they know Christmas is coming and the questions are getting harder.

:17:21. > :17:26.with the family. We still have hope that she is out there and will be
:17:26. > :17:31.brought home to us. Nobody knows how and when it is it will end, but
:17:31. > :17:39.24 days in, no one is prepared to give up yet.
:17:39. > :17:48.Celebrating Africa's links with Wales. A special performance to
:17:48. > :17:54.welcome Archbishop Desmond Tutu. is amazing that a small part of
:17:54. > :18:02.that the world such as Wales should have the this Wales for Africa
:18:02. > :18:06.So the UK has officially climbed out of recession, now businesses in
:18:06. > :18:08.Wales are assessing what that means for them. Four out of 10 working
:18:08. > :18:12.men here are employed in one of the strongest growing sectors,
:18:12. > :18:14.manufacturing. But Wales also suffers from high levels of youth
:18:14. > :18:17.unemployment and there aren't enough jobs for our young people to
:18:17. > :18:22.go into. Our Economic Correspondent Sarah Dickins looks at the
:18:22. > :18:25.situation on the ground. In the heart of Pill, Newport
:18:25. > :18:30.docklands, this small company has been supplying local builders for
:18:30. > :18:35.more than 80 years. In the 90s' boom, they expanded to Blackwood
:18:35. > :18:44.and Ebbw Vale. But then the financial crisis hit and families
:18:44. > :18:49.put off their building plans. and has 1009 were difficult times,
:18:49. > :18:53.but in 2010 and 2011, we felt that we had come through the bows of it
:18:53. > :18:57.and have slowly started to reinvest. It is often said builders are a
:18:57. > :19:01.great barometer of what is really going on and the economy. This
:19:01. > :19:05.company is particularly that. It tips cent of their customers are
:19:05. > :19:10.small local builders and they know when people stop and start spending
:19:10. > :19:16.money. This company in the summer took the brave step of opening a
:19:16. > :19:19.new depot in Cardiff. It's cost the company �750,000.
:19:19. > :19:22.Some cash of their own and a loan from the bank, a brave decision in
:19:22. > :19:26.the middle of a double-dip recession. We did worry, but we
:19:26. > :19:29.kept believing that we could succeed here. We are confident that
:19:29. > :19:31.we will do that. One of areas of the strongest
:19:31. > :19:33.growth is production and in particular, manufacturing. Both
:19:33. > :19:37.very important to the Welsh economy. Ironically, today's output figures
:19:37. > :19:42.show construction as a whole across the UK has shrunk by another 2.5%
:19:42. > :19:45.in the three months to the end of September. In Bridgend, these
:19:45. > :19:55.apprentices to the building trade are not upbeat about their chances
:19:55. > :19:59.in the economy. I am nervous. Because the economy is going down,
:19:59. > :20:04.we are not getting the work. The money is not coming through. It is
:20:04. > :20:12.getting less and less opportunities for anyone. Modern apprenticeships
:20:13. > :20:18.are the best way to get people into work. The Welsh Government clearly
:20:18. > :20:22.agrees. Some argue the process also needs to be simpler. The Welsh
