:00:00. > :00:15.Thank you very much. That is all from Edinburgh. There
:00:16. > :00:18.First Minister Carwyn Jones has announced a surprise reshuffle
:00:19. > :00:22.He said his government was now ready to focus on the tough choices Wales
:00:23. > :00:25.needs to create world-class public services and to build on the recent
:00:26. > :00:28.So who is in and who is out of the Cabinet?
:00:29. > :00:30.Former Education Minister Leighton Andrews returns as Minister
:00:31. > :00:32.for Public Services, 15 months after he resigned.
:00:33. > :00:35.But John Griffiths loses his post as Minister for Natural Resources,
:00:36. > :00:38.And Jeff Cuthbert is also leaving the government.
:00:39. > :01:02.His portfolio goes to Lesley Griffiths.
:01:03. > :01:08.Glued to his smartphone this afternoon and back in the Cabinet.
:01:09. > :01:13.The First Minister used social media to announce changes to his
:01:14. > :01:16.ministerial team and there was good news for Leighton Andrews, forced to
:01:17. > :01:22.resign as Education Minister over a year ago. He is now back in the fold
:01:23. > :01:27.and in charge of public services. He will be pushing through counsel
:01:28. > :01:30.mergers, a tough challenge for a politician who is not afraid of
:01:31. > :01:35.ruffling feathers. He was talking today about consensus. People have
:01:36. > :01:38.accepted there has to be reformed, there has to be reorganisation, some
:01:39. > :01:44.councillors are talking actively already about a merger. We have now
:01:45. > :01:47.got to seek a consensus across the whole of Wales. Through the
:01:48. > :01:52.afternoon, the First Minister shared news of the reshuffle with his team
:01:53. > :01:57.at his office in Cardiff. Carl Sargeant looked pleased with his new
:01:58. > :02:00.job as natural resources Minister. For others, there is little or no
:02:01. > :02:08.change. Jane Hutt stays as Finance Minister. Edwina Hart has been in
:02:09. > :02:13.the Cabinet since the start of devolution. She also stays put. I am
:02:14. > :02:20.delighted to be staying in the position, delighted that Ken is
:02:21. > :02:22.continuing to be my deputy minister. It shows confidence in the
:02:23. > :02:30.Department and the way we have worked. I think it does show that
:02:31. > :02:34.there is little or no talent on the Labour backbenches and so he was the
:02:35. > :02:39.rift of bringing any real fresh blood into this tired Cabinet. Many
:02:40. > :02:43.of the Cabinet members have been there since 1999. Lesley Griffiths
:02:44. > :02:50.takes responsibility for communities and tackling poverty. Also moving to
:02:51. > :02:56.the backbenches are John Griffiths and former deputy minister Gwenda
:02:57. > :02:59.Thomas. Julie James is the new face in the deputy ministerial team. And
:03:00. > :03:10.there are beefed up roles for other deputies. You go in there nervous
:03:11. > :03:15.and come out delighted. I am amazed. I really am. I think it is the best
:03:16. > :03:21.team I can put in place, a very strong team, I have people who will
:03:22. > :03:25.be working hard towards the election. It will serve the people
:03:26. > :03:30.of Wales well. A new team for the new assembly term which starts next
:03:31. > :03:32.week. But also a line-up which the First Minister believes is equipped
:03:33. > :03:34.to steal Wales through crucial months ahead.
:03:35. > :03:35.A Muslim student from Cardiff who called himself
:03:36. > :03:38.the father of terrorism has been jailed for more than three years.
:03:39. > :03:41.Khuram Iqbal admitted posting more than 800 links online to extremist
:03:42. > :03:47.material, using Facebook and Twitter to spread videos and articles.
:03:48. > :03:49.Thousands of workers at government buildings in Cardiff
:03:50. > :03:51.had to leave their offices earlier as a controlled explosion was
:03:52. > :03:56.Some roads in the Llanishen area were closed but the all clear was
:03:57. > :04:03.An investigation is underway after man died in a house fire in Neath.
:04:04. > :04:05.Emergency services were called to the incident on
:04:06. > :04:08.Officers have not been able to identify the man
:04:09. > :04:16.All this week, we have been looking at the effect of the outcome of
:04:17. > :04:21.And the effect that vote will have on the economy and the way we are
:04:22. > :04:35.governed was centre stage at a major conference in Cardiff today.
:04:36. > :04:41.Which way for Scotland? Shadow Welsh Secretary Owen Smith became the
:04:42. > :04:44.latest Welsh politician to pitch into the battle over Scotland's
:04:45. > :04:48.future. We need to make sure they have heard loud and clear that the
:04:49. > :04:51.view from Wales and England and Northern Ireland is we do want them
:04:52. > :05:00.to stay and we do think we will all be diminished if we break apart. Mr
:05:01. > :05:05.Smith and other Labour MPs trooped North. Scottish banks threatened to
:05:06. > :05:09.go in the opposite direction. Royal Bank of Scotland confirmed it will
:05:10. > :05:14.move its registered headquarters to London if Scotland votes for
:05:15. > :05:18.independence. I noticed the markets this morning revealed they had a
:05:19. > :05:20.contingency. Alex Salmond says it is a technical change that will not
:05:21. > :05:25.affect customers but with other finance custom is -- companies
:05:26. > :05:30.intending to the same, questions over the cost of independence are
:05:31. > :05:33.under intense scrutiny. And the cost to Wales. Another question being
:05:34. > :05:38.scrutinised at a conference in Cardiff today. The Welsh economy
:05:39. > :05:42.will not profit either from any financial turmoil is. It is in the
:05:43. > :05:45.Welsh interest to for these guys to make a nice and it is go through the
:05:46. > :05:51.motions of sorting it out quite quickly. If you are wondering what
:05:52. > :05:54.the fate of Wales will be in the drama of Scotland's referendum, you
:05:55. > :05:58.are not alone. The great and the good of Welsh politics are trying to
:05:59. > :06:03.work it out. Some of them are here at eight conference in the Wales
:06:04. > :06:08.millennium Centre to ask this question, what are the implications
:06:09. > :06:13.for Wales of Scotland's choice? Meet Melanie Stevenson, a 26 euros
:06:14. > :06:18.student from Cardiff who would like to know what are the implications
:06:19. > :06:23.for Wales. Some say that if there is a yes vote in Scotland it will be
:06:24. > :06:26.good for us. You were saying in the conference about the Yes vote been
:06:27. > :06:31.great for Wales but why would it be great for Wills? I think politics
:06:32. > :06:35.has been dominated for in of decades now by London and the south-east and
:06:36. > :06:39.Westminster. And really, it is time power was shed a little bit more
:06:40. > :06:43.equally through the nations that make up the United Kingdom. If
:06:44. > :06:46.Scotland votes yes, the power that is currently all hemmed in London,
:06:47. > :06:51.some of it will be transferred to Edinburgh. That gives us an
:06:52. > :06:55.opportunity then to have a national conversation about the kind of
:06:56. > :07:00.powers that we want to hold. Scotland is top billing in the
:07:01. > :07:04.debate about the UK's constitution but Wales may have a part to play if
:07:05. > :07:06.there are knock-on effects for our economy or the powers that the Welsh
:07:07. > :07:08.assembly has, whatever they may be. A scheme which pays farmers
:07:09. > :07:10.and landowners to maintain the countryside is still flawed,
:07:11. > :07:13.according to a Wales Audit Office The Glastir scheme is supposed to
:07:14. > :07:15.protect landscape But today's report says
:07:16. > :07:18.participation is well below the target and some of
:07:19. > :07:26.its objectives cannot be measured. It is no mean feat cleaning certain
:07:27. > :07:29.parts of the Millennium Stadium. Today a 2 kilometre long system
:07:30. > :07:32.of ropes and rigging went into hoisting a team
:07:33. > :07:34.of three onto the stadiums masts. Not a job if you do not have
:07:35. > :07:37.a head for heights, with the work being carried out
:07:38. > :07:46.around 90 metres off the ground. Cricket and Glamorgan wrapped up a
:07:47. > :07:53.victory over Derbyshire with a day to spare. After setting the visitors
:07:54. > :07:54.20 -- 261, Glamorgan ripped through their opponents and bowled them out
:07:55. > :08:09.for 154. This settled September weather
:08:10. > :08:12.continues. We had a fair amount of cloud around today and similar
:08:13. > :08:18.tomorrow. The satellite picture really tells the story. After a
:08:19. > :08:21.bright start, we can see how that thicker cloud moved into the
:08:22. > :08:27.south-east. West was best for sunshine. Tonight, some clear spells
:08:28. > :08:39.but cloudier than last night. The crowd holding up the temperatures.
:08:40. > :08:43.Some early mist and fog, a grey start tomorrow but that will lift.
:08:44. > :08:49.Cloud will thin and break and similar right across the UK. A bit
:08:50. > :08:53.slow to clear in places but generally turning drier and brighter
:08:54. > :08:59.through the day and warmer. 19 Celsius for Glasgow and Belfast. And
:09:00. > :09:03.a brighter end to the day across Wales. Some cloud, not quite as
:09:04. > :09:15.sunny as it has been. Temperatures above average. Saturday, the best of
:09:16. > :09:19.the sunshine again. Temperatures in the low 20s. High pressure begins to
:09:20. > :09:24.drift to the north east, towards Scandinavia. We are slowly losing a
:09:25. > :09:28.grip on the fine weather and this area of low pressure in the Azores
:09:29. > :09:36.will slowly make inroads later next week. Maybe a bit cloudier and
:09:37. > :09:41.breezy than it has been but it looks like midweek next week we will start
:09:42. > :09:46.to see things breaking down with things turning more and settled with
:09:47. > :09:53.a return of some rain. You can keep up-to-date on the website.
:09:54. > :09:56.That is all for now. We are back in breakfast from 6am. But from me,
:09:57. > :10:01.good night.
