:00:09. > :00:21.The chief executive of Pembrokeshire Council steps aside over a row about
:00:22. > :00:25.full payments. Over the last 18 months, things have been piling up,
:00:26. > :00:47.where I think the only decision he could've made this morning was for
:00:48. > :00:51.him stand aside. The nursery at a centre of an outbreak of measles.
:00:52. > :01:01.Babies are given a jab to contain it. The storms were transported from
:01:02. > :01:09.a Welsh quarry. Now, the memorial Dragon is here in Flanders, already
:01:10. > :01:14.for tomorrow's unveiling. The Premier League is back. Swansea get
:01:15. > :01:22.ready for their fourth season in the world's richest football
:01:23. > :01:25.competition. Good evening. The Chief Executive of payments Council is to
:01:26. > :01:30.step aside with immediate effect following a row about full payments
:01:31. > :01:33.he received. The council has announced that he is taking a period
:01:34. > :01:39.of absence, but will remain on full pay. Currently under investigation
:01:40. > :01:47.by police over cash payments he received instead of pension
:01:48. > :01:49.contributions. Last Friday, these protesters wanted the Chief
:01:50. > :01:55.Executive of premature counsel to go. Today, he steps aside for a
:01:56. > :02:00.period of absence after months of pressure. For someone who has become
:02:01. > :02:05.a highly controversial figure. In January, the Wales audit office
:02:06. > :02:10.decided that cash payments made to him and another senior official were
:02:11. > :02:15.unlawful. That led to a police investigation, but no evidence of
:02:16. > :02:19.any criminal offences was found. In July, the council decided not to
:02:20. > :02:26.take any further action to reclaim the money worth more than ?45,000. A
:02:27. > :02:30.week later, a new police investigation was launched, when
:02:31. > :02:36.fresh information emerged. Now, it is claimed that Mr Paddy Jones spoke
:02:37. > :02:39.to two members of the council's independent ruling group, asking why
:02:40. > :02:42.they voted for him to give the money back. One of them says the Chief
:02:43. > :02:45.Executive has back. One of them says the Chief
:02:46. > :02:51.He has taken a very honourable position this morning with himself
:02:52. > :02:54.as the leader. I think it is probably the right decision. The
:02:55. > :03:01.focus has been on the Chief Executive for the last 18 months.
:03:02. > :03:09.Some feel Paddy Jones has blurred the lines between politics and the
:03:10. > :03:12.job of a neutral official. They have put him on gardening leave. Actually
:03:13. > :03:18.it is quite nice gardening leave. He is on 20 that like ?200,000 per
:03:19. > :03:25.year. That is not much of a sanction, if you ask me. This former
:03:26. > :03:29.council Chief Executive, who represents his trade union, says
:03:30. > :03:35.they do a tough job, managing big budgets and thousands of staff.
:03:36. > :03:40.Chief executives are unusual, because they along with one or two
:03:41. > :03:44.other senior officers are subject to statutory protection, so they are
:03:45. > :03:47.very well protected and the council would have to be very queer of its
:03:48. > :03:53.grounds if it wanted to take further action. It actually can't do so
:03:54. > :03:59.without an independent inspection by somebody outside of the council. The
:04:00. > :04:03.leader of the council says the chief executive's departure is in the best
:04:04. > :04:07.interests of the authority at this time cup. But his critics are
:04:08. > :04:09.determined to make sure that his absence from the council's
:04:10. > :04:15.headquarters becomes a permanent one. Do we know how long his breed
:04:16. > :04:23.of absence is going to be? No, we don't. The council is not saying
:04:24. > :04:27.anything further. I do know that he will be on full pay while he he is
:04:28. > :04:34.away from work, so worth noting that the auditor general knows he is the
:04:35. > :04:40.highest-paid local authority executive in Wales. As you know, it
:04:41. > :04:44.is not easy to get rid of the Chief Executive. There is a long process
:04:45. > :04:47.that has to be gone through. It is important to stress that he has not
:04:48. > :04:51.been suspended. He has agreed to take time away from work, after
:04:52. > :04:54.months of pressure. The council has said throughout that it has done a
:04:55. > :04:58.good job and running services, but there have been damaging stories to
:04:59. > :05:02.his reputation about the layers in some of those stories, and there is
:05:03. > :05:08.a feeling that it really stuck can start to address those failings if
:05:09. > :05:14.the chief executive is attracting so much attention. Thank you, Dan.
:05:15. > :05:20.Babies were normally too young to be vaccinated against measles have been
:05:21. > :05:26.given the M M R jab in a bid to contain an outbreak at a nursery.
:05:27. > :05:30.There have been two confirmed outbreaks and five other children
:05:31. > :05:35.have been tested for the virus, but Public Health Wales are confident
:05:36. > :05:40.the situation is under control. This is the nursery at the centre of the
:05:41. > :05:45.latest measles outbreak in the Swansea Bay area. Two children
:05:46. > :05:48.attending the aisles of smiles nursery have been confirmed as
:05:49. > :05:54.having measles. Five others are being tested for the virus. Public
:05:55. > :05:59.Health Wales said the vaccination was good, but some children were at
:06:00. > :06:06.risk because of the normal circumstances, they were too young
:06:07. > :06:11.to receive the vaccine. The first M M R jab is usually given at 12
:06:12. > :06:16.months of age, with the second administered when the child is three
:06:17. > :06:19.years old. Today, there was an opportunity for parents to get their
:06:20. > :06:24.children vaccinated earlier than usual. We have got a responsibility
:06:25. > :06:28.to children, to make sure that the outbreak doesn't go any further. We
:06:29. > :06:33.have had a high-volume of children who have already had the
:06:34. > :06:36.vaccination. It is a small minority that happened. We have said today
:06:37. > :06:42.that everybody in the nursery should now be protected. This outbreak
:06:43. > :06:49.comes a year after the worst ever outbreak in Wales. Over an eight
:06:50. > :06:53.month period, there were more than 1200 cases, most of them in the
:06:54. > :06:59.Swansea area. One child died from the Monier after contracting
:07:00. > :07:06.measles. The father of one was 25. Further cases of measles were later
:07:07. > :07:09.identified at the school in the Swansea Valley. Health officials are
:07:10. > :07:14.confident the outbreak at this nursery is now under control, thanks
:07:15. > :07:19.in part to the prompt action taken by the nursery buzz next. This is
:07:20. > :07:25.not a case of panicking. This is not an outbreak like we had in 2013. It
:07:26. > :07:30.is not as wide as that, but ever, as with all vaccinations, it it is the
:07:31. > :07:35.best thing to do to get your child vaccinated. In the meantime, the
:07:36. > :07:40.nursery is open as normal and after this morning, more of the children
:07:41. > :07:46.who come here are protected against measles. The NHS in Wales will be
:07:47. > :07:51.the first in the UK to fund a cannabis -based medicine for people
:07:52. > :07:58.with multiple sclerosis. An oral spree has been approved by the
:07:59. > :08:01.board, and will be available on prescription to treat muscle spasms
:08:02. > :08:04.for sufferers who have not responded to other treatments. It is the first
:08:05. > :08:08.of its kind to be licensed within the UK. Hundreds of people have paid
:08:09. > :08:13.tribute to Arthur Jones, who died after going missing on a walking
:08:14. > :08:17.holiday in Crete. Motor cyclist rode alongside the procession in Denbigh,
:08:18. > :08:21.and was a guard of honour for the former soldier. The 70 Three Rd was
:08:22. > :08:27.described as a popular character in his hometown. He had many friends in
:08:28. > :08:31.his hometown, and his motorcycle involvement and so on. He used a
:08:32. > :08:35.marshal the parade for the remembrance service, and he was very
:08:36. > :08:40.publicly involved. You also do charity work, and was also a very
:08:41. > :08:47.good laugh, a very good Rock Hunter, a very popular gentleman. The jury
:08:48. > :08:52.has heard the boss of a race charity claimed for Wales Rugby tickets, cat
:08:53. > :08:59.litter, and pet food on his expenses full Cepeda knives defrauding more
:09:00. > :09:04.than ?12,000 from his company. It shut down in 2012 after its funding
:09:05. > :09:08.was withdrawn. A couple who robbed a woman while she suffered an Apple to
:09:09. > :09:12.collect and then burgled her home and be jailed for 18 months. They
:09:13. > :09:17.stole her keys while she lay on the ground outside her home in Morriston
:09:18. > :09:24.in Swansea. The judge described the couple as despicable. A large fire
:09:25. > :09:28.has closed one of the main roads through one of our main towns. One
:09:29. > :09:33.man was rescued from a flat above a charity shop in the town centre.
:09:34. > :09:39.Fire investigators are still investigating what caused it.
:09:40. > :09:45.Fighting to save one of the best-known buildings of the town. A
:09:46. > :09:49.lot of smoke, and then after a while there were flames coming up the
:09:50. > :09:56.windows, and people being evacuated at that time from the flats. They
:09:57. > :10:00.were standing on the pavement with blankets around their shoulders. One
:10:01. > :10:04.man was rescued by firefighters earlier this morning and taken to
:10:05. > :10:12.hospital, suffering from smoke inhalation. The shop downstairs was
:10:13. > :10:25.full of furniture. There are lots of rooms, lots of steroids, it was an
:10:26. > :10:31.unorthodox building -- steer ways. A charity shop for at least 15 years,
:10:32. > :10:36.got it in just a few hours. Traffic diverted from one of the busiest
:10:37. > :10:40.streets in town. Deserted bus stands during rush hour. As the
:10:41. > :10:44.investigation continue into what caused all of this damage, the
:10:45. > :10:49.charity run this shop say they are absolutely devastated at the events
:10:50. > :10:53.of today, but there are thoughts are with the man who is in hospital
:10:54. > :11:01.after being rescued. A destruction and distress for some. This part of
:11:02. > :11:13.town became eerily quiet. Still to come. From circus act to theatre and
:11:14. > :11:17.animation, how this year's Green man Festival is not just about the
:11:18. > :11:22.music. And how one city in Wales has had more than a month of rain in one
:11:23. > :11:31.fortnight. Find out later in the programme. As events continue to
:11:32. > :11:35.commemorate this into an array of the start of World War I, in
:11:36. > :11:40.Flanders they are getting ready to unveil the new memorial to all those
:11:41. > :11:44.from Wales who took part in the conflict. It is estimated that as
:11:45. > :12:00.many as 40,000 soldiers and sailors died in the conflict. Welcome to the
:12:01. > :12:06.memorial. We are about five miles from a historic city. In this
:12:07. > :12:11.direction, we have another historical town. In 1917, this was
:12:12. > :12:14.the heart of the battlefield, as the Welsh advanced through here on the
:12:15. > :12:18.first day of the Battle of Passchendaele. As you can see, the
:12:19. > :12:23.memorial is covered up at the moment, but tomorrow it will be
:12:24. > :12:27.draped in the Welsh flag. Already, people are flocking here from all
:12:28. > :12:31.parts of Wales. They are coming in buses and cars. Some are travelling
:12:32. > :12:36.by air. The wells are arriving in Flanders. These are among eight 300
:12:37. > :12:44.strong party from north-west Wales, taking in a tour today. A Welsh
:12:45. > :12:52.flavour on the local caravan site, too. Put out hotels and guesthouses,
:12:53. > :12:55.all here for tomorrow's unveiling. It is important to me because I know
:12:56. > :13:02.that my grandfather fought here and he also fought in another battle
:13:03. > :13:08.nearby, and although we came back alive, I want to honour his memory.
:13:09. > :13:13.There are memorials here for many nations. There is one in France for
:13:14. > :13:18.the Welsh, but I know that the campaign has been long-running and
:13:19. > :13:24.the people of Flanders. It was important. At the memorial site
:13:25. > :13:29.itself, local people at work getting it ready. This project matters every
:13:30. > :13:35.bit as much here as a dozen Wales. It means a lot to me, because the
:13:36. > :13:43.Welsh, they liberated us. They fought very heavy. That is why we
:13:44. > :13:48.want to do this. All around this area, there are minders of the
:13:49. > :13:50.battles fought here during the First World War. The scale of the
:13:51. > :13:53.suffering is World War. The scale of the
:13:54. > :14:02.years, these few square miles claimed around 1 million has of
:14:03. > :14:07.these. -- casualties. Those from Wales who fought and died have never
:14:08. > :14:11.been forgotten. Yards from the site of the new memorial, locals gather
:14:12. > :14:18.each month to remember at the Welsh. It was out of these services that
:14:19. > :14:29.the idea emerged. It affects you emotionally to see these trenches,
:14:30. > :14:38.for example, you know, to see how they lived. Peter Jones a retired
:14:39. > :14:39.police officer, came here 18 months ago. Is a money and you're the right
:14:40. > :14:41.way to do it? Yes. Because the men who were lost are here. There is no
:14:42. > :14:45.national monument for Welsh soldiers or for any Welsh person who took
:14:46. > :14:48.part in the First World War. There is no lasting memorial to them
:14:49. > :14:53.specifically, and every other nation has one. So that has got to be
:14:54. > :14:59.rectified. The Welsh public seem to agree. By July last year, enough
:15:00. > :15:03.money had been raised to ship the storms, which provide the platform
:15:04. > :15:12.for the memorial, from Wales to Flanders. The government also threw
:15:13. > :15:19.its weight behind the project. At a foundry in Wales, the bronze was
:15:20. > :15:20.poured. Slowly, from the castes, the Dragon emerged.
:15:21. > :15:23.poured. Slowly, from the castes, the they were chipped away at, did they
:15:24. > :15:28.discover whether they were chipped away at, did they
:15:29. > :15:35.worked. It is exactly as I had envisaged it. The team have
:15:36. > :15:37.worked. It is exactly as I had great job of translating my small
:15:38. > :15:44.sculpture into this large one here. It is better than I imagined. This
:15:45. > :15:54.hymn sung last night at the It is better than I imagined. This
:15:55. > :15:58.of the Welsh fought in the great War.
:15:59. > :16:05.of the Welsh fought in the great not heard this term.
:16:06. > :16:08.of the Welsh fought in the great Germans heard it too. It was always
:16:09. > :16:12.sung by the Welsh battalions before they went over the top. It is an
:16:13. > :16:17.honour for us to be able to sing that hem. It is an honour
:16:18. > :16:20.honour for us to be able to sing those who took part that the new
:16:21. > :16:23.memorial will be dedicated. Those lucky enough to get through it, and
:16:24. > :16:30.of course those who never made it home. With me now is Peter Jones,
:16:31. > :16:35.coordinator of the memorial campaign committee. Peter, there must have
:16:36. > :16:40.been times when you campaigned for this that you thought it was never
:16:41. > :16:47.going to happen. Yes. At the very outset of the campaign, I did become
:16:48. > :16:48.a little despondent, because I wrote letters and sent information to many
:16:49. > :16:57.people letters and sent information to many
:16:58. > :17:01.response. Then as time wore on, I didn't give up, and banks to the
:17:02. > :17:07.media, mainly, and interviews didn't give up, and banks to the
:17:08. > :17:13.various people and by the television, I think I was able to
:17:14. > :17:19.get the message across. The television, I think I was able to
:17:20. > :17:23.monument out here and a memorial out here except Wales,
:17:24. > :17:26.monument out here and a memorial out fire inside
:17:27. > :17:28.monument out here and a memorial out realisation that there
:17:29. > :17:32.monument out here and a memorial out here for our Welsh lads, apart from
:17:33. > :17:37.great stones. That message has got across to the people of Wales, and I
:17:38. > :17:41.feel quite sure that that is the reason that so many people have
:17:42. > :17:47.donated. People have donated. You have raised ?130,000. You're faddy
:17:48. > :17:55.promise from the wells committee. Are you going to use that money? We
:17:56. > :18:00.are going to use most of it, because we had no idea of the cost of
:18:01. > :18:04.bronze. The Dragon has set us back ?85,000. An additional ?5,000 to
:18:05. > :18:10.bring it over here or thereabouts, and it has left us with very little
:18:11. > :18:14.money in the kitty. We need help that we need
:18:15. > :18:14.money in the kitty. We need help They have done the groundwork year.
:18:15. > :18:20.They created a PA They have done the groundwork year.
:18:21. > :18:24.help them. If you have got the money, you should help them, and we
:18:25. > :18:28.are going to. And 24-hour is to go now until the Dragon is unveiled at
:18:29. > :18:36.and you can watch it tomorrow evening. It is going to be a very
:18:37. > :18:39.moving ceremony, I am sure. The Premier League football season
:18:40. > :18:46.begins tomorrow and Swansea City ticket. -- kick it off. The new
:18:47. > :18:50.campaign begins with a lunch time kick-off at Old Trafford tomorrow.
:18:51. > :18:54.The media will be there, not to focus on Swansea, it must be said,
:18:55. > :19:00.but instead to see how Manchester United get on in their new match
:19:01. > :19:07.under their new manager. Swansea have a lot to prove. Swansea are
:19:08. > :19:13.making a habit of being part of Manchester United's managerial
:19:14. > :19:16.entrances and exits. They did their best to spoil the party when Alex
:19:17. > :19:19.Ferguson said goodbye to Old Trafford last summer, and now they
:19:20. > :19:25.will be providing the opposition once again, as the new manager takes
:19:26. > :19:29.charge at the Theatre of dreams. Every move, gesture and comment from
:19:30. > :19:33.the man who led the Netherlands to victory in the World Cup will be
:19:34. > :19:35.scrutinised in minute detail. Swansea will barely get a look
:19:36. > :19:40.again, unless they can spring a surprise. One of the biggest clubs
:19:41. > :19:44.in the world with a new manager and all of that, the attention will be
:19:45. > :19:47.on them. That is great for us. Everything is on them, and they
:19:48. > :19:50.should be winning trophies, they will be wanting to win the league
:19:51. > :19:55.this year, and that is pressure for them. Obviously, it is a New Year
:19:56. > :19:59.for others in terms of our management, and we will go about it
:20:00. > :20:05.in the way that we can. We will try to put on a performance that we can
:20:06. > :20:09.be proud of. No surprise that the new manager did not field a single
:20:10. > :20:13.question about Swansea, but he was keen to play down his own role in
:20:14. > :20:20.the match. The most important thing is much quarters, really. I don't
:20:21. > :20:23.play football. Elsewhere, the managerial merry-go-round is already
:20:24. > :20:28.turning before a ball has been kicked. The manager of Crystal
:20:29. > :20:32.Palace kicked. The manager of Crystal
:20:33. > :20:36.settle differences with the German. Palace player Arsenal tomorrow, who
:20:37. > :20:42.impressed at Wembley on Sunday, as they won the community Shield. Aaron
:20:43. > :20:46.Ramsey's goal showed why the gunners were so keen to offer him a new
:20:47. > :20:51.contract. I was always going to sign. I never thought about leaving.
:20:52. > :20:59.I am still only 23, and I still have many years to go. I was never in
:21:00. > :21:02.doubt for me to move away. The manager has always been very good
:21:03. > :21:05.army, always manager has always been very good
:21:06. > :21:23.oddly I am paying him back. As for Palace, former Cardiff manager is
:21:24. > :21:27.now taking the job. In the championship, Cardiff City are
:21:28. > :21:30.hoping that there are two new signings can be registered in time
:21:31. > :21:34.to play some part against Huddersfield tomorrow in league two
:21:35. > :21:39.Newport County travel to Markham who beat them home and away last season,
:21:40. > :21:47.while in the conference, Wrexham Coast Nuneaton. Glamorgan bowler
:21:48. > :21:54.Essex for a 286 in the first day of their match in St Helens at Swansea.
:21:55. > :22:03.At the close, the Welsh county were 27 or one. That is your sport.
:22:04. > :22:08.Thousands of music fans descended on the Esk Valley for the annual Green
:22:09. > :22:12.man Festival. It is the biggest musical event in Wales, and this
:22:13. > :22:16.year it is not just about the bands. They're also be circus
:22:17. > :22:21.performances and animated films from some of our leading artists.
:22:22. > :22:28.Bursting onto Green man this afternoon, no fit state circus, with

:22:32. > :22:35.This company has performed all over the world to huge acclaim, but this
:22:36. > :22:39.is their first year at this festival. Hopefully we will get a
:22:40. > :22:41.lot more of exposure from different clientele who don't usually come and
:22:42. > :22:49.see us. We are hoping we will educate a few music fans into the
:22:50. > :22:53.delights of circus. This year, the festival is the most ambitious yet.
:22:54. > :22:57.More than 1500 artists will be performing here, but never before
:22:58. > :23:02.have been been so many different art forms on display. Around the site,
:23:03. > :23:07.you will come across a quirky lesion of tree houses. Each one has a
:23:08. > :23:15.different artwork inside. Just read the corner, this sculptor has
:23:16. > :23:19.created a Dragon made from wood. One of the most eye-catching of
:23:20. > :23:23.installations lurks inside this silo, an animated film about a herd
:23:24. > :23:28.of cattle running through time and space. Having made the first couple
:23:29. > :23:32.of animated films, I got quite bored with the idea of a rectangle on the
:23:33. > :23:35.wall and started to look for other ways of using the projected images
:23:36. > :23:40.that would engage with people emotionally. Around 20,000 people
:23:41. > :23:44.will make their way to the best this year, and although the music acts
:23:45. > :23:49.will be the biggest draw, there is no shortage of unexpected cultural
:23:50. > :23:53.delights. It is about creating special moments, that experience, it
:23:54. > :23:59.is very stability to other art forms that people are not used to hear.
:24:00. > :24:02.You may not be used to this. National Theatre Wales has created a
:24:03. > :24:08.new production for the event. The story involves harnessing pagan
:24:09. > :24:11.energy from festival goers and a grumpy father Christmas, who is
:24:12. > :24:18.holidaying in the Brecon Beacons along with his elves. You can ask
:24:19. > :24:25.for some things. But remember, he is on his holidays, so don't bother him
:24:26. > :24:27.too much. This is the 12th year of the festival, and it is proving to
:24:28. > :24:32.be one of the most popular. Tickets sold out weeks ago. This year there
:24:33. > :24:37.is an emphasis on the arts as well as the music. Plenty of festival
:24:38. > :24:42.goers to enjoy when they come by. Looks like fun. How is the forecast
:24:43. > :24:52.looking? I have got some good news. It should
:24:53. > :24:58.be dry over the weekend, although Sunday morning will start off a
:24:59. > :25:01.little damp. 12 Celsius rising to 18 Celsius in the afternoon. The
:25:02. > :25:05.weather in August can be a little strange, and that is the case this
:25:06. > :25:10.year. Five inches of rain has fallen in Cardiff so far. That is more than
:25:11. > :25:16.one month usually. It looks like we're in for plenty of dry weather
:25:17. > :25:20.this weekend for a change. Not completely dry, though. Also look
:25:21. > :25:24.out for a stronger winds on Sunday. This evening, dry for most of us.
:25:25. > :25:28.Any showers will fade away. Overnight, most places dry except
:25:29. > :25:32.that the odd light shower in the North. Temperatures in the Brecon
:25:33. > :25:37.Beacons falling as low as eight Celsius, and nearer 13 Celsius on
:25:38. > :25:45.the coast. Here is the picture of ATM in the morning. A reasonable
:25:46. > :25:52.start to the day. -- 8am. A bit more cloud likely in the North West. The
:25:53. > :25:57.winds light but a bit fresher. The best of the sunshine tomorrow, in
:25:58. > :26:01.the morning. More cloud in the afternoon. Still a few bright
:26:02. > :26:06.intervals, but most places dry. The breeze picking up tomorrow, with top
:26:07. > :26:10.temperatures of between 16 Celsius and 19 Celsius. Tomorrow night, into
:26:11. > :26:15.Sunday, a cold front will move southwards and that will bring rain
:26:16. > :26:18.with it. It will also be a windy night. Sunday will start off with
:26:19. > :26:24.some rain first thing, but this will clear, and it will be dry and
:26:25. > :26:27.bright. Some sunshine, with a few showers. A breezing and Wendy Day on
:26:28. > :26:35.Sunday, with gale force winds in the North. -- a windy day. The chart for
:26:36. > :26:41.Monday shows 80 low pressure over Norway which means North West Labour
:26:42. > :26:46.winds for the UK. Does winds will bring air from the Arctic Darren to
:26:47. > :26:51.the UK. It looks like we are in for a taste of autumn for next week.
:26:52. > :26:55.Some pretty chilly nights. It may feel as if summer is over despite
:26:56. > :27:00.the sunshine. There is no sign yet of any more hot weather on the way.
:27:01. > :27:05.There are signs it may warm up a little over the bank holiday
:27:06. > :27:08.weekend. That is some way off in the meantime plenty of dry weather this
:27:09. > :27:12.weekend. A little bit of rain, as well. Most of that on Sunday
:27:13. > :27:16.morning, but it will clear and there will be some sunshine. Watch out for
:27:17. > :27:25.strong winds on Sunday. Especially in the North. A reminder of our main
:27:26. > :27:28.story. The Chief Executive of payments Council is to step aside
:27:29. > :27:32.with immediate effect, following a row over unlawful payments he
:27:33. > :27:34.received. He is currently under investigation by police over cash
:27:35. > :27:42.payments he received instead of pension contributions. That is all
:27:43. > :27:47.for now. Goodbye.
