:00:00. > :00:00.so it's goodbye from me, and on BBC One, we now join the BBC's news
:00:00. > :00:08.teams Welcome to Wales Today. Homes under
:00:09. > :00:11.water - so why have councils given the go-ahead to hundreds of
:00:12. > :00:23.developments on flood plains despite being warned of the risk? This whole
:00:24. > :00:25.area is a bit like a miniature Somerset Levels, except you have a

:00:56. > :01:00.The ?4 million advertising campaign to entice tourists to come on
:01:01. > :01:03.holiday here. In tonight's sport: He won
:01:04. > :01:05.silverware - but as the club struggles in mid-table - Wrexham
:01:06. > :01:18.player-manager Andy Morrell resigns. Good evening. In the last ten years,
:01:19. > :01:20.councils here have given the go-ahead to hundreds of
:01:21. > :01:26.developments, despite being warned that they posed a flood risk.
:01:27. > :01:29.Natural Resources Wales - formerly the Environment Agency - gives
:01:30. > :01:32.advice to local authorities about planning applications, including the
:01:33. > :01:35.risk of flooding. Wales Today has learnt that between 2004 and last
:01:36. > :01:42.year, councils here ignored that advice 341 times. Roger Pinney has
:01:43. > :01:49.been to Kinmel Bay near Rhyl - one of the communities where it's
:01:50. > :01:54.happened. Sandbags at the ready. Thankfully they are not needed
:01:55. > :01:59.today. But here, local people to keep an eye on every high tide. But
:02:00. > :02:04.it isn't just this coastal strip which is at risk from flooding. The
:02:05. > :02:09.whole community is built on low-lying flatland with the sea on
:02:10. > :02:12.one side and the river on the other. It's a flood plain. This is what
:02:13. > :02:18.happens when it goes wrong. In 1990, the sea wall breached. Much of what
:02:19. > :02:24.was farmland then has since been built on. In the last couple of
:02:25. > :02:29.years, the council has given the green lighted two developments,
:02:30. > :02:34.advice. One of them will be decided by a Welsh planning inspector. Given
:02:35. > :02:37.the concerns here, there is little wonder locals turn out for a public
:02:38. > :02:47.meeting called by their assembly member to discuss flooding. Some
:02:48. > :02:52.people ready have had a really bad. The estate I live on really
:02:53. > :02:58.shouldn't have been built, I didn't realise it were purchased the
:02:59. > :03:02.property. It's barmy for councillors on any part of Wales to refuse to
:03:03. > :03:05.accept the fact is, when they are presented to them, from
:03:06. > :03:09.organisations like Natural Resources Wales, they are the flooding
:03:10. > :03:15.experts. If they say it is too risky, local authorities should he
:03:16. > :03:22.do that. On the riverside, there is an embankment and pumping stations
:03:23. > :03:32.to keep the water out. The entire area is crisscrossed with streams.
:03:33. > :03:35.It is a bit like a miniature Somerset Levels accept you have a
:03:36. > :03:43.lot of housing and industrial buildings here. An industrial estate
:03:44. > :03:48.is a key distinction, he says, because no one will actually live
:03:49. > :03:54.here. We have to make the best of the patchwork situation we have at
:03:55. > :04:01.the moment. Sometimes that means picking and choosing what advice you
:04:02. > :04:05.take? The place common sense is fuelled by the fear that the place
:04:06. > :04:09.will buy without new development. In other parts of Wales at my be
:04:10. > :04:15.because of a lack of buildable land. Compromises are being made. We have
:04:16. > :04:24.a housing crisis in Wales and in the whole of the UK. The lack of land
:04:25. > :04:33.means that some local authorities get desperate, and develop land that
:04:34. > :04:36.is prone to flooding. What is clear is flood risk can have devastating
:04:37. > :04:41.impact on people, properties and communities. It is important we have
:04:42. > :04:48.appropriate checks and balances in place. In Kinmel Bay, they're keen
:04:49. > :04:50.to anything that will do that. Here they question whether existing homes
:04:51. > :04:54.and businesses can be properly defended, let alone new ones.
:04:55. > :04:58.A mother from Pembrokeshire broke down in tears today as she told an
:04:59. > :05:02.inquest how her premature son died at just five weeks old, after being
:05:03. > :05:05.taken off a ventilator. Bronwyn Rhodes noticed something was wrong
:05:06. > :05:08.with baby Rohan soon after he son was transferred from a hospital in
:05:09. > :05:17.Swansea to see specialists in Bristol in 2012. Paul Heaney
:05:18. > :05:25.reports. Rohan Rhodes was born 14 weeks early
:05:26. > :05:30.in Swansea. He had serious lung and heart problems so was transferred to
:05:31. > :05:35.see experts at St Michael's Hospital in Bristol in September 2012. His
:05:36. > :05:42.parents say within hours he became too unwell for surgery, eventually
:05:43. > :05:46.suffering a cardiac arrest. When he was deteriorating that night, nobly
:05:47. > :05:51.escalated his care when they should have. -- nobody. He was left for
:05:52. > :05:58.hours with nobly taking a blood sample to see how he was doing. His
:05:59. > :06:00.mother said that nursing staff in Bristol were aggressive when
:06:01. > :06:06.inserting feeding tubes into her son. They clearly caused him pain,
:06:07. > :06:11.she said. His father thought he had been sedated when he was taken off
:06:12. > :06:16.the ventilator, such was the pale and apparently lifeless state of his
:06:17. > :06:21.body. Rohan Rhodes died at just five weeks, after his mother agreed that
:06:22. > :06:26.doctors should stop resuscitating him. A pathologist told the inquest
:06:27. > :06:30.that he had multiple perforations of his bowel and the likely cause of
:06:31. > :06:38.his death was a stomach infection and pneumonia. Rohan's parents say
:06:39. > :06:42.they hope lessons can be learned. He suffered a great deal of pain, that
:06:43. > :06:45.is the part we want to try and make sure doesn't happen again Thomas
:06:46. > :06:52.that is why we are talking to you, to make sure no other babies suffer.
:06:53. > :06:58.The hospital trust says it offers its sincere condolences to the roads
:06:59. > :07:01.family for the loss of their son. The former chief executive of the
:07:02. > :07:04.now defunct All Wales Ethnic Minority Association, Awema, has
:07:05. > :07:08.appeared in court and denied three charges of fraud. Naz Malik is
:07:09. > :07:12.accused of claiming more than ?16,000 from the Swansea-based
:07:13. > :07:18.charity. He's due to stand trial in August.
:07:19. > :07:21.A 13-year-old from Barry was electrocuted as she helped her
:07:22. > :07:26.father bring Christmas decorations down from the attic, an inquest has
:07:27. > :07:29.heard. Georgia Marshall died at home last November. An exposed cable
:07:30. > :07:35.wrapped around a metal step ladder gave her a fatal electric shock. A
:07:36. > :07:39.verdict of accidental death was recorded.
:07:40. > :07:43.The first of a series of meetings for people with concerns about poor
:07:44. > :07:46.care at hospitals run by Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University Health
:07:47. > :07:48.Board is being held this evening in Bridgend. It follows a series of
:07:49. > :07:53.damning headlines over recent months. Last July, a BBC Wales
:07:54. > :07:59.investigation exposed the neglect of an elderly patient - Lilian Williams
:08:00. > :08:02.- at two ABMU hospitals. That investigation led to calls for a
:08:03. > :08:09.public inquiry into care standards and death rates in the Welsh NHS.
:08:10. > :08:11.Two external reviews into the ABMU hospitals are ongoing - one
:08:12. > :08:18.commissioned by the Welsh Government, one by the health board.
:08:19. > :08:22.The Abertawe Bro Morgannwg Victims' Support Group has also been set up
:08:23. > :08:27.which is echoing the calls for an inquiry. Our reporter India Pollock
:08:28. > :08:37.is at the Princess of Wales Hospital in Bridgend. What is the purpose of
:08:38. > :08:43.the night's meetings? People with complaints about care are meeting
:08:44. > :08:47.with senior clinicians and managers here. Those meetings are being held
:08:48. > :08:51.in private but I've spoken to a few people who have concerns about the
:08:52. > :08:55.care and are meeting with them. There are similar concerns that come
:08:56. > :08:59.up. The standards of care, the frustration at the length of time it
:09:00. > :09:02.has taken to deal with the complaints. These meetings this
:09:03. > :09:07.evening for a public meeting which took place last month, about 100
:09:08. > :09:11.people attended that. There were calls for the Chief Executive to
:09:12. > :09:14.step down at that meeting. He has refused to do that but says he wants
:09:15. > :09:20.to listen to people and work with them to improve standards. There is
:09:21. > :09:26.a demonstration there at the hospital tonight. Yes, as you can
:09:27. > :09:29.see, a number of people here have been demonstrating and as well as
:09:30. > :09:36.the resignation of Mr Roberts, they want the health board to be put into
:09:37. > :09:40.special measures and the -- a full public enquiry. They say anything
:09:41. > :09:44.short of that is not enough. But this demonstration is a peaceful
:09:45. > :09:48.vigil. They want to respect the people coming in and out of the
:09:49. > :09:52.hospital. But they want a message to be heard, and that message is for
:09:53. > :09:57.full public enquiry to be held. Despite several reviews, that call
:09:58. > :10:01.has been rejected so far by the Welsh government.
:10:02. > :10:03.A former Swansea rugby player has been handed a record eight-year ban
:10:04. > :10:07.for possessing and trafficking steroids. 34-year-old Dean
:10:08. > :10:10.Colclough, who was a hooker with Swansea RFC was found to be in
:10:11. > :10:13.possession and trafficking of anabolic steroids. Colclough played
:10:14. > :10:23.for the club 106 times between 1997 and 2008.
:10:24. > :10:26.The "For Sale" sign has been up for three years but it seems there are
:10:27. > :10:33.no buyers for Milford Haven's Murco Oil Refinery. The plant employs 400
:10:34. > :10:37.people in Pembrokeshire and is owned by the American company Murphy - who
:10:38. > :10:43.posted a $105 million loss for the last three months of 2013. Just
:10:44. > :10:52.before we came on air I spoke to the oil analyst Carol Bell and asked her
:10:53. > :11:02.what's going on at Murco. Murco is the pulling out of it worldwide.
:11:03. > :11:06.What is apparent from the figures is that the assets in Wales, in
:11:07. > :11:14.refining, are marked for position, which means they are for sale. So
:11:15. > :11:19.when the story, blast in November, the company then said that they had
:11:20. > :11:22.no plans to close down, they were pursuing a sale, and we must assume
:11:23. > :11:28.that was the case until we hear otherwise. Presumably, if you can't
:11:29. > :11:35.find a buyer, you have to simply closed down, don't you? That is
:11:36. > :11:41.indeed the case. Viewers will will remember the story in Grangemouth,
:11:42. > :11:45.it got close to that. The main problem is that older refineries in
:11:46. > :11:48.this country are not competitive, given the amount of refining
:11:49. > :11:55.capacity that has come on elsewhere in the world. What is the wider
:11:56. > :11:59.picture? It seems to most of us, using the roads and being stuck in
:12:00. > :12:06.congestion, we need more and more oil all the time, surely the demand
:12:07. > :12:09.is growing around the world? Refined products are more competitively
:12:10. > :12:13.produced elsewhere. It is just as easy to fill a tanker with diesel or
:12:14. > :12:19.petrol as it is with crude oil. So this is a worldwide market. Where
:12:20. > :12:27.does that leave oil refining in the UK? Will really just not have a
:12:28. > :12:35.future in it? It is a European wide problem, not just for the UK. There
:12:36. > :12:38.are 25 refineries in the EU, and up to nine of them were a sale
:12:39. > :12:44.recently. It's just a case that you can't make money in this business,
:12:45. > :12:49.and that is why Murphy is pulling out of the business. It recently
:12:50. > :12:53.passed on to its shareholders, its North American refining operations,
:12:54. > :12:56.but they are pulling out of refining.
:12:57. > :13:00.You're watching Wales Today from the BBC. Later in the programme - from
:13:01. > :13:05.Dr Who to the fashion catwalk - how Wales could do better when it comes
:13:06. > :13:08.to the creative arts. And Wales will be without Aaron
:13:09. > :13:10.Ramsey for their friendly against Iceland, as they prepare for the
:13:11. > :13:22.Euro 2016 qualifying campaign. Castles, beaches and dolphins will
:13:23. > :13:26.feature in a new ?4 million advertising campaign aimed at
:13:27. > :13:30.boosting tourism in Wales. It features music from singer Cerys
:13:31. > :13:33.Matthews and will be launched on St David's Day as part of Wales Tourism
:13:34. > :13:38.Week. The TV advert is directed by Marc Evans, whose work includes the
:13:39. > :13:46.Welsh detective series, Hinterland. Abigail Neal reports.
:13:47. > :13:52.Designed to evoke memories of her favourite holiday, the new ad
:13:53. > :13:56.campaign asks viewers to pack an open mind, a sense of adventure and
:13:57. > :14:02.an appetite for discovery in a bid to broaden Wales's appeal. They
:14:03. > :14:08.might know bits about us, but with films, if you take it to a pistol, a
:14:09. > :14:15.competition opens up and start to understand a bit more about who we
:14:16. > :14:17.are. -- ticket to a festival. Ministers said they want to tackle
:14:18. > :14:25.misconceptions about how much there is to see and do here in Wales so
:14:26. > :14:32.the first Mountain bike Park in Merthyr Tydfil is featured as well
:14:33. > :14:36.as dolphin watching in Cardigan Bay. It is a ?4 million campaign, with
:14:37. > :14:41.the tourism is an important industry in Wales, 10% of the people in Wales
:14:42. > :14:48.worked in the tourism industry and there is a contribution of about ?5
:14:49. > :14:52.billion a year. Look beyond the advertising and Welsh tourism is
:14:53. > :14:57.having to put up its prices. Both Snowdonia National Park and the
:14:58. > :15:00.Brecon Beacons National Park are cutting staff, closing information
:15:01. > :15:07.centres and raising car parking charges as they face a 13% cut in
:15:08. > :15:13.funding. The historic management agency is having to increase
:15:14. > :15:17.admission fees -- monuments agency. Pembroke should coast National Park
:15:18. > :15:23.are due to consult on what cuts they need to make in the next six months.
:15:24. > :15:29.A reduction in funding will mean there will be a reduction in what we
:15:30. > :15:33.can do. We have no specific plans for increasing charges, but it will
:15:34. > :15:36.be a balance between increasing charges and perhaps having a
:15:37. > :15:43.detrimental impact on people visiting some of our sites. So it is
:15:44. > :15:47.a Catch-22. Local authorities faced the same pressures on their tourism
:15:48. > :15:51.budgets while at the same time reliant on the income tourists can
:15:52. > :15:54.bring. It's a business that continues to
:15:55. > :15:57.grow despite the economic downturn - a report out today says Wales should
:15:58. > :16:00.make more of developing the creative industries. The think tank IPPR says
:16:01. > :16:04.Cardiff is successful in fashion, television and radio but it could be
:16:05. > :16:06.further boosted if these industries weren't concentrated in London.
:16:07. > :16:17.Here's our arts and media correspondent Huw Thomas.
:16:18. > :16:22.Made in Wales are shown around the world. Doctor Who is a hit with
:16:23. > :16:26.viewers and it is good for business. This is where he begins every
:16:27. > :16:32.journey. It is where the series is filmed. Along with the likes of
:16:33. > :16:34.Sherlock and casualty, it is given Wales and enviable reputation. But
:16:35. > :16:38.over the road, there is another building that is almost finished. It
:16:39. > :16:43.will be a ?6 million creative industry centre as it it is where
:16:44. > :16:47.the Welsh government hope will be a home for new businesses that want to
:16:48. > :16:51.stay in Wales. The creative industries is a sector that employs
:16:52. > :16:58.more than 30,000 people here. They are working at over 4000
:16:59. > :17:02.enterprises, turning over ?1.8 billion a year. But could Wales be
:17:03. > :17:07.doing more? Only two weeks ago the world's biggest designers and
:17:08. > :17:10.celebrity buyers were at London Fashion Week and while the city's
:17:11. > :17:15.catwalks may be considered their natural home, the think tank IPPR
:17:16. > :17:23.says it is time to break London's grip. One who resisted the lure of
:17:24. > :17:29.London is this designer, who works from home in the Vale of Glamorgan.
:17:30. > :17:34.Her textiles are appearing on cushions, curtains and lampshades
:17:35. > :17:37.and exported around the world. I don't feel I have to be there on a
:17:38. > :17:43.day-to-day basis because I can travel to and from there, I go there
:17:44. > :17:51.for trade shows, and in that aspect, I reap the rewards. The students at
:17:52. > :17:59.Carmarthen are the next generation of designers. But will they stay
:18:00. > :18:02.here or had bright lights of London? It's probably easier to have it
:18:03. > :18:07.accessible business and make a name for yourself, because being in a
:18:08. > :18:15.smaller area, you would get lost in London. There is a lot of funding we
:18:16. > :18:22.can get in Wales which are probably wouldn't get in London. It is easier
:18:23. > :18:29.to work freelance from home here now, and worked locally or further
:18:30. > :18:33.afield. A week ago, Pinewood Studios announced they would open a new
:18:34. > :18:38.facility in Cardiff with an estimated ?90 million impact on the
:18:39. > :18:41.economy. Although there are things we can do ourselves, those things
:18:42. > :18:50.will have more impact if they are actually complimented by a sound and
:18:51. > :18:54.effective policy at the London end. Like the doctor, the Welsh economy
:18:55. > :18:58.has undergone several regenerations. It is hoped that in the future,
:18:59. > :19:01.Wales can take a bigger place in the spotlight.
:19:02. > :19:05.Tonight's sport now, here's Claire. Good evening. He's been in charge
:19:06. > :19:08.for two and a half years but today Wrexham's player-manager Andy
:19:09. > :19:11.Morrell resigned from the club. The 39-year-old led the club to two
:19:12. > :19:14.play-off finishes - but they've struggled this season and following
:19:15. > :19:17.their loss to Barnet on the weekend, they've dropped to 13th in the
:19:18. > :19:23.Conference. Matthew Richards looks back at his career.
:19:24. > :19:26.First as a player and then as player/manager, Andy Morrell has
:19:27. > :19:30.definitely made his mark making over 200 appearances for the club. Last
:19:31. > :19:38.year saw the crowning achievement of his tenure, winning the FA Trophy at
:19:39. > :19:42.Wembley. But two months later there would be heartbreak at the same
:19:43. > :19:45.venue as Wrexham lost in the play off final to Newport, denying them a
:19:46. > :19:48.return to the Football League. This season, with a play off place
:19:49. > :19:52.seemingly unlikely, Andy Morrell has thrown in the towel after two and a
:19:53. > :19:55.half years. It was a hard announcement to hear for Wrexham's
:19:56. > :19:58.players ahead of training this morning and tough too for Morrell's
:19:59. > :20:02.assistant who inherits his role until a permanent successor is
:20:03. > :20:08.found. It was very emotional because Andy had players he brought to the
:20:09. > :20:11.club, friends he played with, and for them to see him how he was and
:20:12. > :20:16.for them to see him how he was, it was hard to take. The club will
:20:17. > :20:19.advertise for a new manager this week. Billy Barr has expressed an
:20:20. > :20:22.interest in taking on the job, but with a game at top-of-the-table
:20:23. > :20:26.Luton tomorrow, it's a baptism of fire. There have been some
:20:27. > :20:31.incredible highs over the last couple of years but they have been
:20:32. > :20:35.some devastating lows as well. Andy Morrell said he had taken the team
:20:36. > :20:41.as far as he could. Nobody is doubting his dedication and
:20:42. > :20:44.commitment. He put his body on the line for Wrexham stop he threw
:20:45. > :20:50.himself at Paul's most of us would run away from. As a player, most
:20:51. > :20:56.respect. As a manager, his track record stands up. He goes with a
:20:57. > :21:01.very good CV which will do him no harm whatsoever. It is a sad day for
:21:02. > :21:04.the football club. Coming after Brian Flynn and Dean Saunders, Andy
:21:05. > :21:08.Morrell guided the club through a tough period but leaves as the only
:21:09. > :21:11.Wrexham manager to win more than half of his matches even if some of
:21:12. > :21:13.the most crucial were just beyond his reach.
:21:14. > :21:16.Staying with football - Wales manager Chris Coleman says it's

:21:48. > :21:52.qualifying starts next week for Wales with a friendly against

:22:01. > :22:05.will be available and there is also a call-up for Manchester City
:22:06. > :22:14.player. Wales find themselves in group B.
:22:15. > :22:21.It will be about us, how many times can we feel is our strongest team? I
:22:22. > :22:26.fancy us to beat anybody with our strongest team at our best. But it's
:22:27. > :22:31.a positive group, it will be tough, but we are a good team and we are in
:22:32. > :22:35.there so we have got a chance. Coleman will take heart from house
:22:36. > :22:41.of his players performed yesterday in the thriller against Liverpool.
:22:42. > :22:50.Swansea city definitely deserved a point. They showed that their spirit
:22:51. > :22:56.was there, despite losing 4-3, their manager and former manager were
:22:57. > :23:03.impressed. I could see the intensity, the quality, I always
:23:04. > :23:08.want to see Swansea do well. If you think about the mud of Games we had,
:23:09. > :23:11.to keep the energy levels going, and the belief we had in the second
:23:12. > :23:18.half, I can't thought my players for the efforts and believe they showed.
:23:19. > :23:22.For Cardiff City, the fight to stay up gets harder. That hammering at
:23:23. > :23:26.home to visitors Hull City leaves them in 19th place, and plans for
:23:27. > :23:33.warm weather training have been cancelled as they prepare for a trip
:23:34. > :23:37.to Tottenham on Sunday. You cannot find any positives when you lose 4-0
:23:38. > :23:43.against a team in round about the same position as you are, especially
:23:44. > :23:49.not when we dominated, created chances, these are the Games you
:23:50. > :23:55.need points from. Newport County were tested on the surface at Rodney
:23:56. > :23:58.Parade and the result didn't go to plan. Their defeat to strugglers
:23:59. > :24:05.Charlton leaves and seven points off the play-off places.
:24:06. > :24:08.The second round of the Wales Open Snooker is underway in Newport with
:24:09. > :24:12.four Welshmen in action today. Andrew Pagett is playing now, hoping
:24:13. > :24:14.to join Dominic Dale and Matthew Stevens who both came through their
:24:15. > :24:17.matches this afternoon. Michael White plays in this evening's
:24:18. > :24:20.session. You can watch the action over on BBC Two Wales at 7pm. Time
:24:21. > :24:29.for the weather! We enjoyed a break from the rain but
:24:30. > :24:37.it is turning wet again this evening. Nothing too extreme this
:24:38. > :24:45.week, and I can promise you some dry spells and sunshine as well. We have
:24:46. > :24:51.the warmest place in the UK yesterday, which spring on the way.
:24:52. > :24:58.This evening, rain will spread across the whole country, some heavy
:24:59. > :25:01.bursts. Gusty winds, as well. Turning drier after midnight with
:25:02. > :25:09.one or two showers. We're not expecting any frost. Here is
:25:10. > :25:12.tomorrow 's chart. We have strong winds and squally showers, and this
:25:13. > :25:19.trough over Ireland will move eastwards during the day. Here's the
:25:20. > :25:23.picture for breakfast time. Much of the country dry at this stage, the
:25:24. > :25:32.crowd broken, with some sunshine. Quite breezy, though. Later in the
:25:33. > :25:35.morning, during the afternoon, that trough will spread across the
:25:36. > :25:43.country, bringing some showers with it. I wouldn't rule out hail and
:25:44. > :25:53.thunder. Plus three South to south-westerly wind. Some showers
:25:54. > :25:57.and at that little sunshine as well. In other areas, the morning should
:25:58. > :26:06.be dry, showers arriving in the afternoon. Tomorrow night, dry apart
:26:07. > :26:13.from a few scattered showers, and it will be a cold night. Into
:26:14. > :26:18.Wednesday, a few showers here and there. A little bit wintry on high
:26:19. > :26:27.ground. Some sunshine as well, with a drawn dry end to the afternoon.
:26:28. > :26:30.This will clear the way first thing on Thursday, leaving us with a
:26:31. > :26:34.mixture of sunshine and showers again. Once again they will be
:26:35. > :26:43.heavy, with hail and thunder, and wintry on the mountains. A similar
:26:44. > :26:48.story on Friday. Some dry weather as well, with a few silly spells. No
:26:49. > :26:58.sign of any snow apart from the higher hills and mountains.
:26:59. > :27:06.The headlines: The Scottish and UK governments have set out competing
:27:07. > :27:11.visions for the future of North Sea oil and gas. Both sides say they
:27:12. > :27:18.hold the key to ensuring that the offshore reserves continue to pump
:27:19. > :27:20.billions into the economy. In the last ten years, councils have given
:27:21. > :27:27.the go-ahead to hundreds of developments despite being warned
:27:28. > :27:32.that they posed a flood risk. Wales today has learned that since 2004,
:27:33. > :27:36.councils ignored that advice 341 times. I'll have an update for you
:27:37. > :27:38.here at eight o'clock and after the BBC News at Ten. That's Wales Today
:27:39. > :27:54.- thank you for watching. We've got to get in the car.
