:01:42. > :01:45.one of April's sisters who said their mother does want to comment on
:01:46. > :01:52.the news. We have heard from April's Rand further who said that
:01:53. > :01:59.as a weight off their minds. It is a big relief. April Jones was just
:02:00. > :02:05.five years old when her young life was snatched away. She was playing
:02:06. > :02:12.near her home on an estate in Machynlleth when she was abducted in
:02:13. > :02:16.2012. Last year, Mark Bridger was jailed for her abduction and
:02:17. > :02:20.murder. He was given a whole life sentence. He sought permission to
:02:21. > :02:24.appeal against that tariff but today the judicial office has confirmed
:02:25. > :02:30.that application has been dropped. April's family say they are
:02:31. > :02:34.relieved. Somebody who doesn't crime like that should not be allowed to
:02:35. > :02:43.appeal. I think they should lose the rights. A whole life should mean a

:04:18. > :04:21.says if it got into power it would pay off the debts of junior doctors
:04:22. > :04:24.who agree to stay in Wales for a certain period of time. Would that
:04:25. > :04:28.encourage more to work here when they qualify? Money is certainly an
:04:29. > :04:37.issue for these Cardiff Medical School students. I think medical
:04:38. > :04:41.students and the huge amounts of financial pressures. For new
:04:42. > :04:46.students, fees being ?9,000 a year and having to contented longer

:04:53. > :04:56.are going to pay off most of the zone it is a consideration would
:04:57. > :05:00.consider. Opponents think a Plaid Cymru plan
:05:01. > :05:07.to pay for a thousand doctors with a tax on a litre of sugary drinks
:05:08. > :05:10.doesn't add up. We know the problems outweigh the recruitment of doctors
:05:11. > :05:16.and that we have the reconfiguration progress. The idea we could fund
:05:17. > :05:22.core NHS services by what is effectively a tangled tax, really, I
:05:23. > :05:33.think it reduces its simple as it do. The salary costs would be around
:05:34. > :05:39.?65 million. We would look to either pay for it within the NHS budget and
:05:40. > :05:41.reallocate within the NHS budget all we would lock at using new tax
:05:42. > :05:44.powers. Plaid says it would also guarantee
:05:45. > :05:52.medical training for Welsh speakers, if they meet the entry requirements.
:05:53. > :05:55.It says cutting paperwork would make the NHS more attractive to recruits.
:05:56. > :05:58.It wants to protect training for post-graduates and suggests hiring
:05:59. > :06:06.foreign doctors, including trainees from developing countries. A lot of
:06:07. > :06:13.GPs in some areas of Wales are getting to the end of their careers
:06:14. > :06:17.and we have an impending recruitment crisis for general practice as a
:06:18. > :06:20.result. The NHS says a shortage of doctors isn't the only reason for
:06:21. > :06:22.hospital reorganisation. They say some specialist treatments have to
:06:23. > :06:25.be centralised to make sure doctors see enough patients. But the
:06:26. > :06:27.politicians know that can be a bitter pill for the public to
:06:28. > :06:31.swallow. Daniel, has there been a response
:06:32. > :06:39.from within the NHS to Plaid Cymru's proposals? Those students you saw in
:06:40. > :06:43.my reports, they may be interested in any offer to pay the debts the
:06:44. > :06:46.aromatic but the Wales deanery, one of the bodies responsible for
:06:47. > :06:51.medical training, says it sounds like an expensive off at a time when
:06:52. > :06:55.men that money is tight. It says it is much more important to
:06:56. > :06:58.concentrate on that -- -- experienced doctors have because
:06:59. > :07:02.that'll be a bigger factor in persuading them to stay. Hospital
:07:03. > :07:07.reorganisation stays at the top of the agenda. We were

:07:53. > :07:58.?8,000 of Christmas savings from her friends and neighbours has been
:07:59. > :08:01.jailed for 18 months. Joanne Jones, from Treharris, stole from 18 people
:08:02. > :08:11.who'd paid money into the Park Group Christmas Savings Scheme. Nick Palit
:08:12. > :08:15.reports. 19 people in the village of
:08:16. > :08:18.Treharris had been paying into the Park Savings Club, a few pounds
:08:19. > :08:22.every week since last January to ease the cost of Christmas presents.
:08:23. > :08:25.But in August, as the festive season drew closer, it became apparent that
:08:26. > :08:29.their Park agent hadn't been passing on their cash to the company. Today,
:08:30. > :08:36.some of those who lost out, attended court to see the woman who'd stolen
:08:37. > :08:40.from them jailed. We were all really close friends, it was a really
:08:41. > :08:45.close-knit community. We lived within a stone 's throw from each
:08:46. > :08:50.other. She broke our trust as a friend.
:08:51. > :08:54.36-year-old mother of four, Joanne Jones, pleaded guilty to stealing
:08:55. > :08:57.their money. In court her legal team said she was a victim of domestic
:08:58. > :09:04.violence and was under pressure from an alcoholic husband. I do feel
:09:05. > :09:10.sorry for them but she got what she deserved. She should not have stolen
:09:11. > :09:13.off everybody. With the loss of ?7,700, many of those who'd been
:09:14. > :09:16.saving were sick with worry. One family had lost ?1,300, others a
:09:17. > :09:19.couple of hundred, all feared their children would have a miserable
:09:20. > :09:22.Christmas as a result. But the community of Treharris rallied round
:09:23. > :09:25.and fundraising events managed to replace some of the missing cash.
:09:26. > :09:32.Outside court today, Joanne Jones' mother said her daughter was
:09:33. > :09:38.extremely sorry. Chuan put her hands up, that is it. She's doing her time
:09:39. > :09:42.and God help her, she will not do it again.
:09:43. > :09:45.Park co-operated with the police inquiry and in a statement said they
:09:46. > :09:50.make every effort to help customers on the extremely rare occasions such
:09:51. > :09:56.as this. Sentencing Chuan Jones to months, the judge said this was a
:09:57. > :09:59.disgraceful reach of trust which cause stress and anxiety to people
:10:00. > :10:02.who took out these accounts. Of the 19 players they were family members
:10:03. > :10:08.and friends and their Christmas was 19 players they were family members

:10:25. > :10:26.Families of patients at two hospitals in Bridgend and Port
:10:27. > :10:30.Talbot have accused the Health Minister of going back on a promise
:10:31. > :10:34.to review past standards of care. Last October it was announced the
:10:35. > :10:36.Princess of Wales and Neath Port Talbot Hospitals would be reviewed
:10:37. > :10:48.after the death of 82-year-old Lilian Williams. India Pollock
:10:49. > :10:55.reports. Lillian Williams was, according to her family, independent
:10:56. > :10:58.and full of life. When she needed hospital treatment she suffered
:10:59. > :11:02.multiple failings in care. This video filmed by her family shows
:11:03. > :11:06.medication scattered round her hospital bed and she was sedated
:11:07. > :11:10.against her family 's wishes. Last October the health Minister said he
:11:11. > :11:14.was commissioning in Independence review into standards of care at the
:11:15. > :11:24.hospitals as a result of a meeting with Mrs Williams family. But then
:11:25. > :11:40.e-mail from Professor June Andrews states,
:11:41. > :11:46.the review, if it does not look back, will not be able to establish
:11:47. > :11:52.the reasons why things have gone so badly wrong in those hospitals over
:11:53. > :11:58.a number of years. The review must look back to learn lessons from the
:11:59. > :12:02.past so those lessons will never be repeated again. Patients have
:12:03. > :12:07.suffered, they have come to harm, they have suffered indignities
:12:08. > :12:10.beyond belief. That is wrong. His concerns have been echoed by the
:12:11. > :12:16.charity, action against medical accidents. The experience with
:12:17. > :12:21.patients and families will have no place in this review and that is
:12:22. > :12:25.simply not satisfactory. We need to get to the bottom of why these
:12:26. > :12:31.serious failings in these hospitals took place in the first place. We
:12:32. > :12:38.need to learn lessons from the past, that is a basic principle of
:12:39. > :12:43.basic patient safety. The health minister was asked about the remade
:12:44. > :12:47.today. There is nothing to prevent Professor Andrews from looking into
:12:48. > :12:52.standards of care in the past where she feels that is what she needs to
:12:53. > :12:56.do. I have been clear that is no point in me and establishing an
:12:57. > :13:01.independent enquiry and then trying to tell the person doing the enquiry
:13:02. > :13:05.exactly how they should go about it. But in a statement this evening, the
:13:06. > :13:09.last government says it is likely the review will cover the period of
:13:10. > :13:12.Lillian Williams's care but whether that'll be enough to reassure the
:13:13. > :13:14.Williams family remains to be seen. The former leader of the Welsh

:13:23. > :13:23.Bourne of Aberystwyth told Wales Today
:13:24. > :13:28.Our parliamentary correspondent, with
:13:29. > :13:38.Our parliamentary correspondent, David Cornock is here. This has been
:13:39. > :13:44.prompted by a letter sent to the Prime Minister by almost 100 of his
:13:45. > :13:48.own MPs at the weekend in which those MPs call for Westminster to be
:13:49. > :13:53.able to veto EU laws they don't like. Whether they be on energy or
:13:54. > :13:59.social policy. That has provoked Nick Bourne to a strong response. He
:14:00. > :14:03.says those MPs have got their priorities wrong. He says the
:14:04. > :14:11.Conservatives will not win the election by being UK like in terms
:14:12. > :14:17.of its approach is. He says they should drop what he calls an
:14:18. > :14:25.obsession that isn't shared by other voters. If you look at the last 20
:14:26. > :14:30.years, the Conservative Party when it has and on about Europe has lost
:14:31. > :14:36.elections. Its second -- finish second to the Labour Party. The only
:14:37. > :14:42.time we beat Labour was in 2010 when we did not bang on about Europe.
:14:43. > :14:46.What do those MPs have to say? They say they are helpful to a Prime
:14:47. > :14:55.Minister who has promised to hold the referendum on British membership
:14:56. > :14:59.in the EU. Of the 96 also MPs, Glyn Davies has been talking to us. He
:15:00. > :15:05.says he hopes that this letter he has signed will help the Prime
:15:06. > :15:11.Minister in his renegotiation of Britain's membership of the EU. I am
:15:12. > :15:15.not obsessing about it. But it is an issue people cared about. The people
:15:16. > :15:22.of Britain and Wales have decided they want to have a say whether for
:15:23. > :15:27.or against it. It is but the relationship with the EU on the
:15:28. > :15:32.agenda. The Prime Minister does not think he is being helpful. He thinks
:15:33. > :15:37.the Conservative position of having a referendum, if they win the next
:15:38. > :15:41.election, is enough and Conservatives should concentrate on
:15:42. > :15:44.other issues. Nick Bourne is echoing comments made by David Cameron in
:15:45. > :15:48.the past about his party in a non-about Europe but in politics
:15:49. > :15:51.everything comes around again. Two historic cannon have been

:16:56. > :17:00.In Wales, the 1920s and '30s saw a golden age in cinema-going and
:17:01. > :17:05.cinema building. Picture houses appeared up and down the country.
:17:06. > :17:09.Every town had at least one. In Port Talbot, the jewel in the crown was
:17:10. > :17:13.the Art Deco Plaza Cinema. It's still there today, a Grade II listed
:17:14. > :17:18.building that now stands derelict and boarded up. According to the
:17:19. > :17:21.charity that safeguards UK cinemas, old picture palaces in Wales, like
:17:22. > :17:31.this one, are being needlessly neglected. Once these buildings are
:17:32. > :17:36.gone, they are gone. It is worth saving these buildings because a lot
:17:37. > :17:43.of them have disappeared in the last ten years. You have got a case down
:17:44. > :17:48.the road from here in Bridgend where the Embassy Cinema was demolished
:17:49. > :17:53.needlessly in our opinion because it was a perfectly adaptable building
:17:54. > :17:55.and in very good condition. There are many others that are under
:17:56. > :17:58.threat of demolition. Wales used to have hundreds of
:17:59. > :18:01.cinemas, there are now fewer than 60. Many local picture houses were
:18:02. > :18:05.forced to close when multiplexes arrived in the nineties. And
:18:06. > :18:15.cinema-going itself has always gone through peaks and troughs. Many of
:18:16. > :18:22.the old cinemas are converted into being goals. That meant the
:18:23. > :18:25.buildings themselves were in use. But bingo halls themselves are now
:18:26. > :18:31.facing tough times. This one has already closed it stores. Across the

:18:47. > :18:49.Bridgend Council who said the building had deteriorated beyond
