Cardiff Council, the biggest local authority in Wales, has been

strongly criticised in a report by the public spending watchdog.

The Wales Audit Office says it is failing to improve services

in areas like education and social care because of fragmented

The council leader says the findings are a sobering read.

Here's our Political Editor, Nick Servini.

It's a council that's been given a stark warning.

Cardiff is not making enough progress and that's impacting

on the services that matter most to the 350,000 people it serves.

Compared to the rest of Wales, education has seen limited

improvement, performance remains comparatively

weak and a high proportion of children in care leave

The council has been quite clear about its priorities for education

and for vulnerable people. Yet when you look at the comparative

performance across Wales, the education performance has not

improved at the rate that Estyn would have expected and there are

still challenges remaining in social care.

The report lays much of the blame on longstanding trouble at the top.

It says three chief executives and three senior management

restructures in the past four years have caused instability.

Phil Bale's been in charge since March.

He accepts the problems, but says changes have been made

and wants to be given more time before he's judged.

We recognise the issues identified in the report and we are

serious about tackling those issues. We already are putting in place

measures to make sure that the council is improving. Shortly after

winds and largely clear skies overnight. Temperatures falling to

between six and 11 Celsius. The front which brought today's drizzle

clears eastwards tomorrow with original high-pressure building,

bringing more settled weather. Once early morning mist clears, it should

be a dry morning with sunny spells. That front in the East just giving

the odd spot of drizzle. Then south easterly wind will bring the best of

the breaks. Turning a bit cloudier further north through the afternoon.

It should stay try across Wales, just some fair weather cloud.

Wednesday is largely fine. The order chance of a shower, but feeling worn

in the sunshine, temperatures in the 20s. That high-pressure should stay

in place for the week. Some uncertainty for the end of the

week. These low pressure systems will try to push in, but

high-pressure could hold out and keep them at bay as we head into the

weekend. Certainly, a dry and fine start to September.

Thank you. We will be back at breakfast with updates from 625.

Good night.
