:00:04. > :00:09.Welcome to Wales Today. Our top story: Pembrokeshire Council under
:00:09. > :00:14.fire for how it keeps children safe in school. One family claims this
:00:14. > :00:17.video shows their son being locked in a padded room. Tonight, the
:00:17. > :00:27.education inspectorate Estyn says the council should be placed in
:00:27. > :00:40.
:00:40. > :00:44.Our other headlines tonight: Different wages for similar jobs -
:00:44. > :00:47.why thousands are still waiting for a fair pay out. And the next
:00:47. > :00:57.generation of fighting vehicles for the British army being built here
:00:57. > :00:59.
:00:59. > :01:04.on the site of an old colliery. Good evening. In tonight's sport,
:01:04. > :01:06.tearing up the turf could be a thing of the past. Why the
:01:06. > :01:11.Millennium Stadium is considering swapping the grass for an
:01:11. > :01:21.artificial surface like this. And Deiniolen's Dave Brailsford was
:01:21. > :01:22.
:01:22. > :01:32.last night named Coach of the Year. Ahmad as cycling track which Dave
:01:32. > :01:38.
:01:38. > :01:41.Brailsford are opened last year. -- I am at the cycling track.
:01:41. > :01:44.Good evening. It's been accused of failures in keeping children safe.
:01:44. > :01:46.Tonight there are calls for Pembrokeshire council to be placed
:01:46. > :01:49.in special measures. The council was highly criticised last year
:01:49. > :01:52.after claims from 2009 came to light that children were locked in
:01:52. > :01:56.a padded time-out room. In a separate report today, the auditor
:01:56. > :02:06.general has called for the Welsh Government to intervene. Abigail
:02:06. > :02:07.
:02:07. > :02:11.Neal is at Pembrokeshire Council headquarters tonight. Yes, we have
:02:11. > :02:15.seen two reports published today. Both of them following on from
:02:15. > :02:19.those initial complaints back in 2009 about how the council dealt
:02:19. > :02:23.with pupils who were displaying challenging behaviour. And the
:02:23. > :02:31.allegations of abuse about their treatment. One of the reports today
:02:31. > :02:38.is by the Auditor General for Wales, and that looks safe -- on this
:02:38. > :02:42.issue of safeguarding children. The other report comes from Estyn, the
:02:42. > :02:46.schools inspectorate in Wales, and they bullocking generally at the
:02:46. > :02:50.issue of education, and they found it to be unsatisfactory. Today, we
:02:50. > :02:55.managed to get hold of a DVD which shows where this process all began.
:02:55. > :03:01.The boy you see in it is now 16, he is at college and is doing well,
:03:01. > :03:06.but at the time this was taken, things were very different. Andrew
:03:06. > :03:12.has agreed to show us the DD -- DVD from 2009. He says it shows his 12-
:03:12. > :03:16.year-old son being locked in a dark, padded, windowless room. You can
:03:16. > :03:26.see a boy being pushed into the room and then left, on this
:03:26. > :03:28.
:03:28. > :03:36.occasion, for 13 minutes, before he was let out. Surely there are
:03:36. > :03:43.better ways. Teachers should be taught how to handle these children,
:03:43. > :03:46.not by throwing them into a room. Police treat criminals like that.
:03:46. > :03:50.Pembrokeshire council say this padded room no longer exist and
:03:50. > :03:53.they have issued guidance to all schools and over what form of time
:03:53. > :04:03.out space should be used when children need to calm down.
:04:03. > :04:07.
:04:07. > :04:10.Previously, they showed us images. The council has been slow to put
:04:10. > :04:16.improvements in place and those it has put in place have proved
:04:16. > :04:19.inadequate. That said, with better scrutiny arrangements, we are
:04:19. > :04:26.confident that the council has the potential to put the arrangements
:04:26. > :04:28.in place that can provide assurances to the public.
:04:29. > :04:34.Allegations of Professional abuse first surfaced in 2009, regarding
:04:34. > :04:36.the use of the time out room. Last year, two critical reports were
:04:36. > :04:40.published into how the council dealt with these allegations and
:04:40. > :04:46.what policies they had imposter care for the children. Today, two
:04:46. > :04:54.more have been added to the list. The second report, one by Estyn,
:04:54. > :05:01.looked at education more generally. Pembrokeshire was judged
:05:01. > :05:06.unsatisfactory. Julie is one mother who agrees with that assessment.
:05:06. > :05:11.Her eight year-old son James has multiple complex needs. This month,
:05:12. > :05:19.he was permanently excluded because of his challenging behaviour. She
:05:19. > :05:25.showed us his score behaviour logbook and showed us how often the
:05:25. > :05:30.time-out method was used. Sometimes it was twice a day and one time for
:05:30. > :05:34.four hours. I told them that they have failed him. They have
:05:34. > :05:39.discriminated against his disabilities. He is being punished
:05:39. > :05:44.for not walking appropriate -- appropriately in the corridor when
:05:44. > :05:49.he has got poor co-ordination. He has been placed in the chill-out
:05:49. > :05:54.Room for telling visitors that he loves them, which James we do in
:05:54. > :05:58.the supermarket or where they hears. He doesn't find that in appropriate.
:05:58. > :06:03.The Welsh government have already sent in a panel of experts to
:06:03. > :06:07.oversee the council. Now Estyn are calling for the authority to be
:06:07. > :06:13.placed in special measures. We spoke to Pembrokeshire council
:06:13. > :06:19.about some of the issues raised by the little boy James, and they told
:06:19. > :06:22.us that he had been excluded from his primary school and that any
:06:22. > :06:27.concerns or allegations brought to their attention would now be
:06:27. > :06:32.investigated as a matter of urgency. Can you tell us more about what
:06:32. > :06:36.special mirror -- special measures would mean? Yes, special measures
:06:36. > :06:40.are usually something that Estyn would apply to a school. It might
:06:41. > :06:44.mean things like more regular inspections, but in this case, it
:06:44. > :06:48.is applied to a whole local authority. The standard is really
:06:48. > :06:52.the same. When it is applied to a school it is done so because they
:06:52. > :06:58.deem there is an inadequate level of education their and the school
:06:58. > :07:02.might lack the leadership capacity to improve that. This is being
:07:02. > :07:06.applied more generally to the county, but Estyn would not tell us
:07:06. > :07:11.exactly what it involved. It depends on each case by case basis
:07:11. > :07:17.as to what each local authority would need. What has the council
:07:17. > :07:20.said today? The council leader Jamie Adams has issued a statement
:07:21. > :07:24.saying that these are very serious issues and the council is committed
:07:24. > :07:27.to resolving them. He has said he is under no illusion about the
:07:27. > :07:31.scale of the challenge, but they have already made some changes here.
:07:31. > :07:34.One of them is a new director in charge of education and
:07:34. > :07:37.safeguarding that has a very good track record, and another is that
:07:37. > :07:42.they have taken action in recruitment and retention of social
:07:42. > :07:47.care staff. A significant one is that they have signed an agreement
:07:47. > :07:55.with another council to develop a shared school improvement scheme,
:07:55. > :07:59.and that may be one of the first of its kind in Wales. A one of the
:07:59. > :08:05.world's biggest defend -- defence contractor has has opened a new
:08:05. > :08:15.base in the Gwent valley. General Dynamics now it employs
:08:15. > :08:17.
:08:17. > :08:21.around 800 people there and in Newbridge. A promotional film shows
:08:21. > :08:26.the new armoured fighting vehicle that has been ordered by the
:08:26. > :08:32.British Army. It is called the S V programme and at a time of big
:08:32. > :08:36.cutbacks in military spending, this is one project which is going ahead.
:08:36. > :08:41.Around 600 of the vehicles will be designed, developed and tested over
:08:41. > :08:46.the next 10 to 15 years. It is the Number One programme for the army
:08:46. > :08:51.going forward. That is why it is so important to us. This will form the
:08:51. > :08:56.backbone of a large section of the British Army. The heart of the
:08:56. > :08:59.operation is taking what is called off the shelf models, basic
:08:59. > :09:04.structures made elsewhere. They are brought here were all sorts of
:09:04. > :09:09.equipment is added to them, including electronic systems like
:09:09. > :09:13.fees, developed here for the specific use of the British Army --
:09:13. > :09:18.like bees. Their orders -- dozens of defence companies operating in
:09:18. > :09:24.Wales, including some of the world's largest contractors. And it
:09:24. > :09:34.is well paid. Average salaries in Newbridge and over there are
:09:34. > :09:34.
:09:34. > :09:42.�45,000 the year. -- and Oakdale a �45,000 a year. I have met people
:09:42. > :09:45.who have gone to university, gone to a graduate programme they have
:09:45. > :09:52.offered and you would never have come back if the company was not
:09:52. > :10:00.here. The new vehicles are due to come into service by the end of the
:10:00. > :10:03.decade. A 42-year-old actor has been found guilty of raping a 15-
:10:03. > :10:06.year-old girl at a house party in Newport. Simon Morris, who appeared
:10:06. > :10:09.in the television series Hollyoaks, claimed he didn't know what he was
:10:09. > :10:12.doing as he suffers from a sleep disorder known as sexsomnia. But
:10:12. > :10:18.the jury at Cardiff Crown Court today convicted him. He'll be
:10:18. > :10:21.sentenced in the new year. Thousands of council workers who
:10:21. > :10:23.were paid less for doing similar jobs as their colleagues are still
:10:23. > :10:26.waiting for payments worth millions of pounds. The deadline for
:10:26. > :10:36.settling equal pay claims passed five years ago and BBC Wales has
:10:36. > :10:38.
:10:38. > :10:42.learnt most councils here still haven't paid out. The end of a long
:10:42. > :10:45.day for Jennifer Jones, head cook at this church in a primary school
:10:45. > :10:52.in Pembrokeshire. She has worked for the Council for nearly two
:10:52. > :10:56.decades, but people who have previously carried out male jobs
:10:56. > :11:00.such as street cleaners, were paid more than Jennifer even though they
:11:00. > :11:04.were on the same pay grade. wasn't aware untaught Unison came
:11:04. > :11:08.round and told us this was happening -- I wasn't aware. I
:11:08. > :11:13.thought that was a bit fall. How can they get away with that? Why
:11:13. > :11:17.should men get more than women for an equal value drop? Back into
:11:17. > :11:24.their son and seven, the council here was the first to start handing
:11:24. > :11:31.out cheques to workers. Five years on, some councils like Wrexham
:11:31. > :11:35.still haven't paid a penny. Settling these past inequalities is
:11:35. > :11:40.very expensive. Councils have been trying to put it off in the hope
:11:40. > :11:45.that maybe case law will change all the claimants will get so tired of
:11:45. > :11:52.the lengthy litigation progress -- process. We have learnt that the
:11:52. > :11:59.cost councils has so far reached �75 million. Just three authorities
:11:59. > :12:02.have completed the process. This is public money. It may appear simple
:12:02. > :12:06.when a claim comes in, pay it, but if it were to be found later on
:12:06. > :12:11.that it could have been defended, they would be a big question over
:12:11. > :12:15.that. Back in Pembrokeshire, Jenifer finally got her pay out
:12:15. > :12:22.seven years after she put in a claim. For councils, the process of
:12:22. > :12:26.settling cases will go on for some time yet. Still to come, why are
:12:26. > :12:32.rolling out the lawn could soon become a thing of the past. I will
:12:32. > :12:37.be finding out why they are soon considering replacing the green
:12:37. > :12:45.grass at the home of rugby with an artificial pitch. And the brain
:12:45. > :12:48.behind British Cycling honoured as the coach of the year.
:12:48. > :12:52.The investigation into abuse at children's homes in North Wales has
:12:52. > :12:57.received information from more than 100 alleged victims. The National
:12:57. > :13:04.crime agency is looking at the new allegations as well as the way
:13:04. > :13:07.police handled the it original investigation. What exactly is the
:13:08. > :13:16.National crime into Zulu king into here? They have been asked to look
:13:16. > :13:23.at a number of things. -- the National crime agency. These
:13:23. > :13:26.allegations were prompted by a man who was a former resident at a
:13:26. > :13:30.children's home in Wrexham in the late 70s. He gave an interview to
:13:30. > :13:33.the BBC's Newsnight programme at the beginning of last month saying
:13:33. > :13:40.that abuse there was much more widespread than had previously been
:13:40. > :13:44.realised. It wasn't just members of staff. Subsequently, and inaccurate
:13:44. > :13:48.naming was done of Lord McAlpine, the Tory peer. He was forced to
:13:48. > :13:52.link with these allegations. Subsequently, there has been an
:13:52. > :13:57.apology, and those who have publicly named Lord McAlpine are
:13:57. > :14:02.being pursued through the courts. But this has all prompted 105
:14:03. > :14:06.people in total to contact either the quite agency or be referred to
:14:06. > :14:09.them with their own different stories of abuse dating back to
:14:09. > :14:17.children's homes in the 70s in North Wales. They are now living
:14:17. > :14:23.across the UK, up to 22 fours -- police force areas across Britain.
:14:23. > :14:27.What happens next? The initial findings will be put to the Chief
:14:27. > :14:31.Constable of North Wales in April next year. They also look at how
:14:31. > :14:35.the police handled the him -- the original investigation, and we
:14:35. > :14:42.should also find out publicly what those recommendations are, if any,
:14:42. > :14:45.Hundreds of union members at Caerphilly council staged a walkout
:14:45. > :14:48.this afternoon in protest at pay rises for senior staff. Around 600
:14:48. > :14:51.showed their anger at the 20% pay increase for the Chief Executive
:14:51. > :15:00.and other Executive officers. The council says the rise brings
:15:01. > :15:06.salaries in line with the market rate. They mist either say, we have
:15:06. > :15:11.made a mistake, we withdraw, we are going to take it back and not have
:15:11. > :15:14.a rise. Or they resign. It's a story we've been reporting on for
:15:14. > :15:19.five years here on Wales Today - campaigners in Cardiff fighting to
:15:19. > :15:22.save their historic park. The council had wanted to build a
:15:22. > :15:25.school on the site of the Rumney Recreation Ground - a move which
:15:25. > :15:28.led to a local referendum and a public enquiry. Well, today that
:15:28. > :15:38.story reached its conclusion as a special ceremony celebrated the
:15:38. > :15:39.
:15:39. > :15:42.park's new status as a protected site which can never be built on.
:15:42. > :15:46.It's been a hard-fought battle, but today campaigners young and old
:15:46. > :15:51.could finally claim victory. This simple plaque means the Rumney
:15:51. > :15:56.Recreation ground can never be developed. It's been given special
:15:56. > :15:59.protection as part of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations. The
:15:59. > :16:07.monument it sits upon recognises the tireless efforts of local
:16:07. > :16:12.people who fought to keep their fields. You shouldn't build on
:16:12. > :16:17.parkland and that's what we all wanted is our park. This is our
:16:17. > :16:23.village greefpblt this is the centre of the community. -- village
:16:23. > :16:26.green. And it's ours. The campaign to save the Rumney Rec goes all the
:16:26. > :16:29.way back to 2007, when Cardiff council - which owned the land -
:16:29. > :16:32.announced it was going to build a �22 million secondary school on the
:16:32. > :16:35.site. That triggered an angry response from supporters of the
:16:35. > :16:38.park, who argued it had been used by the community since Victorian
:16:38. > :16:44.times. The years that followed saw a local referendum, an 8,000-name
:16:44. > :16:48.petition and a public enquiry. In the end, the council dropped its
:16:48. > :16:58.plans and its new status as a Queen Elizabeth II Field in Trust means
:16:58. > :16:58.
:16:58. > :17:03.those plans can never resurface. The dedication places a covenant on
:17:03. > :17:08.the land which ensures it can only be used for play, sport and
:17:09. > :17:13.recreation. So they can't develop the land and use it for other
:17:13. > :17:22.purposes. This stone is a symbol of people power. And it marks the end
:17:22. > :17:24.of a five-year campaign to save a piece of local history. The winner
:17:24. > :17:28.of what's thought to have been Wales' biggest unclaimed lottery
:17:28. > :17:33.prize has finally come forward. The anonymous claimant won almost �6.4
:17:33. > :17:38.million with the ticket bought in either Anglesey or Gwynedd. They
:17:38. > :17:42.matched all six numbers in a draw in September. Lottery operators
:17:42. > :17:51.Camelot had appealed for the winner to claim the prize before the six-
:17:51. > :17:53.month deadline. All the day's sport now with Claire. Thank you. Welsh
:17:53. > :17:56.rugby bosses are considering the radical step of installing a
:17:56. > :17:59.plastic pitch at the Millennium Stadium. The quality of the grass
:17:59. > :18:03.there has been a constant problem and they've had to relay the turf
:18:03. > :18:06.at least once a year. But now the WRU is thinking about buying a
:18:06. > :18:14.completely artificial surface which is being trialled by a top club in
:18:15. > :18:19.England. Ashleigh Crowter has the story. It's the perfect place for
:18:19. > :18:24.sports fans, but not great for grass. Look at the ground under the
:18:24. > :18:28.England pack. It is giving way. There have been problems with the
:18:28. > :18:34.pitch since the stadium was built, prompting complaints from some
:18:34. > :18:39.teams. At times it's been hard for players to keep their feet. The
:18:39. > :18:46.stands are not conducive to healthy turf. If you have not got a lot of
:18:46. > :18:52.sun, the grass won't grow and if you haven't got air movement, the
:18:52. > :18:56.soil will get damp and that leads to disease. Until now, the Welsh
:18:56. > :19:04.rugby union tried to resolve the problem by replacing the pitch at a
:19:04. > :19:12.cost of a quarter a million pounds each time. It is expensive to
:19:13. > :19:18.maintain the pitch, these lighting rigs cost �500,000 to buy. A fully
:19:18. > :19:22.artificial pitch wouldn't need this, saving the Welsh rugby union
:19:22. > :19:30.hundreds of thousands each year. The union considered inStahling a
:19:30. > :19:37.hybrid pitch like the one at the Liberty Stadium. Now, they're
:19:37. > :19:40.waiting to judge the success of a synthetic pitch at Saracens in
:19:40. > :19:46.England. They will play their first match on it next month. The design
:19:46. > :19:56.has been approved by the world governing body of football and
:19:56. > :20:00.rugby. The surface is filled in with tiny crumbs of rubber. Welsh
:20:00. > :20:07.rugby wosss - ebosses are see waiting to see how United copes.
:20:07. > :20:14.will give us a sense of how it copes with scrums and impact and
:20:14. > :20:19.burn. We only do it if it is right. If we can achieve it, it will save
:20:19. > :20:22.us millions of pounds. In football the Welsh Premier League is
:20:22. > :20:28.encouraging clubs to inStahl artificial pitches. The New Saints
:20:28. > :20:32.were the first to do it. It is now used by the first team and the
:20:32. > :20:37.community. You gate perfect roll and a perfect pitch and that
:20:37. > :20:41.promotes good football, good passing and good skills. Especially
:20:41. > :20:47.from the the younger agement the last thing you want them to do is
:20:47. > :20:52.run through a bog. It has never been that bad at the millennium
:20:52. > :20:54.Stadium, but grass could be a thing of the past there too. Dave
:20:54. > :20:57.Brailsford - the Welshman credited with masterminding the
:20:57. > :21:00.transformation of British Cycling - was named coach of the year at the
:21:00. > :21:02.BBC Sports Personality of the Year awards. The 48-year-old, from
:21:02. > :21:10.Deiniolen in Gwynedd coached the British Olympic Team and worked
:21:10. > :21:15.with Tour De France and sports personality winner Bradley Wiggins.
:21:15. > :21:20.Behind me is a fantastic team. My job is to look after other people,
:21:20. > :21:24.get them to be better and of course we're only going to be as good as
:21:24. > :21:29.our riders. There has been talk about coaching, but it is about the
:21:29. > :21:39.riders and we have a brilliant team in British sighling and Team Sky
:21:39. > :21:46.
:21:46. > :21:51.and they deliver when they need to. Dafydd is joining us live. Thanks
:21:51. > :21:54.Claire. This is Marsh Tracks, a �1.5 million cycling centre. And,

:24:07. > :24:12.Laudrup has criticised the referee after striker Michu collided with
