Welcome to Wales Today - our top stories:

:00:00.:00:00.

Westminster Conservatives in a climbdown

:00:00.:00:00.

as they try break deadlock over more powers for Wales.

:00:00.:00:08.

The number of vacancies for doctors in the Welsh NHS has risen sharply

The number of vacancies for doctors in the Welsh NHS has risen sharply

:00:18.:00:44.

Why these photographs of Dylan Thomas have cost

:00:45.:00:48.

the Welsh Government more than ?200,000

Flooding - and why we could be in for worse

:00:51.:00:54.

than planned for, because we're looking at the wrong

:00:55.:00:56.

figures - according to a leading scientist.

:00:57.:00:59.

And how this four-year-old boy came to the rescue

:01:00.:01:02.

The plan was intended to bring power over your income tax,

:01:03.:01:14.

energy projects and how we run elections closer to Wales -

:01:15.:01:16.

but tonight there's been a major U-turn from the UK Government over

:01:17.:01:20.

It follows claims from all sides that the draft law was confusing -

:01:21.:01:26.

and could end up leaving Welsh ministers with fewer powers,

:01:27.:01:30.

Today's climbdown from the Conservative Welsh Secretary has

:01:31.:01:34.

been welcomed as our Political Editor Nick

:01:35.:01:36.

They say a week is a long time in politics. So what about a year?

:01:37.:01:50.

David Cameron with his then deputy Nick Clegg at what was then called

:01:51.:01:55.

the millennium Stadium. They set out details of the Saint David's pay

:01:56.:01:58.

agreement, to devolve to the Palace to Wales. Fast forward and after

:01:59.:02:03.

months of criticism and a series of reports, and a process that appears

:02:04.:02:07.

to be heading on a collision course, and we have an attempt at a

:02:08.:02:11.

breakthrough. So, what's it all about? Until now, it has been

:02:12.:02:15.

assumed that power lies with the UK,, unless it's in devolved areas

:02:16.:02:20.

like health and education. This has led to confusion at times and legal

:02:21.:02:26.

battles over who is responsible for what. So, the decision was made with

:02:27.:02:31.

the process, make a list of powers held in Westminster, such as

:02:32.:02:36.

policing, defence and benefits -and assume that if anything isn't on

:02:37.:02:42.

your list, the power lies in Cardiff Bay. The problem is that the list of

:02:43.:02:46.

around 260 so-called reserve powers, including areas like road signs and

:02:47.:02:51.

street trading, was considered too long. Then as the war-making carried

:02:52.:02:59.

out in the assembly. In order to enforce the legislation, there are

:03:00.:03:02.

times that has to change the criminal law and, in order to do

:03:03.:03:05.

that, it would have had to pass what was going to be called a necessity

:03:06.:03:10.

test. Critics said it was unworkable. This morning, in Cardiff

:03:11.:03:17.

Bay, a major climb-down from Stephen Crabb as he set out plans to reduce

:03:18.:03:23.

the list of powers set out to Westminster and abandon the

:03:24.:03:25.

necessity test. They also set up a working group to look at what he

:03:26.:03:30.

called distinct arrangements for Wales' growing body of law. I was

:03:31.:03:37.

listening all along and I have been taking on board the valid and

:03:38.:03:40.

legitimate criticisms people have made. I think the changes announced

:03:41.:03:45.

today the right thing to do. It's been 20 time frame to introduce

:03:46.:03:51.

yield time legislation will be a few months. Cameron Jones said there is

:03:52.:03:55.

now the opportunity to repair the damage done by a flawed process and

:03:56.:04:01.

produce a full, meaningful piece of legislation. The changes were also

:04:02.:04:04.

welcomed by some political experts who had been critical of the

:04:05.:04:09.

original proposed legislation. In terms of people's everyday life, you

:04:10.:04:13.

don't really want to be having a debate on the constitution every

:04:14.:04:16.

three or four years. You want the rules of the game to be workable and

:04:17.:04:21.

stable. We haven't had that. I think there is now more hope that region

:04:22.:04:26.

towards that. Not quite back to the drawing board, but still a long way

:04:27.:04:32.

off. No one said he process will be easy but there is more of a cancer

:04:33.:04:38.

night for the decor to be broken. -- chance tonight for the deadlock to

:04:39.:04:40.

be broken. Very. But hey, welcome to the world

:04:41.:04:53.

of politics. This will provide a backdrop to the next Welsh

:04:54.:04:57.

Government progresses after the elections in May. Those who are sick

:04:58.:05:02.

to death of the constitutional debate, those even accept that there

:05:03.:05:07.

is a chance to put the issue to bed for a substantial period of time.

:05:08.:05:09.

The key question is whether the political agreement can be agreed.

:05:10.:05:15.

There was a big moment arrived at yesterday behind the scenes when a

:05:16.:05:18.

pig committee of MPs was added to the critics. Former presiding

:05:19.:05:28.

officer was, Lord Elsdon 's the... Said it was the worst attempt he had

:05:29.:05:34.

ever seen. Carwyn Jones said he introduced the prospect of an

:05:35.:05:39.

English veto on Welsh laws. There was no shortage of criticism and

:05:40.:05:42.

things got really strange. Just a couple of months ago, Stephen Crabb

:05:43.:05:49.

was refusing to budge and introduced a pause to proceedings. He has now

:05:50.:05:53.

made significant concessions. He has made movement on this after

:05:54.:05:57.

listening and he will be looking for a similar element of goodwill from

:05:58.:06:01.

opposition parties and in need from river forms the next Government in

:06:02.:06:08.

May. Thank you. Now, the rest of the day's news.

:06:09.:06:10.

The number of vacancies for doctors in the Welsh NHS has risen over

:06:11.:06:13.

the last year - that's according to new figures obtained by the BBC.

:06:14.:06:16.

for hospital doctors in Welsh Health Boards

:06:17.:06:21.

at the beginning of December - a vacancy rate of 7.8% -

:06:22.:06:24.

which is slightly higher than the average accross England,

:06:25.:06:27.

And the BMA in Wales warns that too much is being spent on employing

:06:28.:06:32.

If we used a fraction of the money that we are using on agency locums,

:06:33.:06:40.

in order to make working in Wales more attractive for normal posts,

:06:41.:06:44.

I'm sure we would make much more significant progress.

:06:45.:06:47.

Let's have a word with our health correspondent Owain Clarke.

:06:48.:06:50.

So, how big a problem is medical recruitment in Wales?

:06:51.:06:58.

Well, there are shortages everywhere. I know in Scotland they

:06:59.:07:06.

have them too. I think it is fair to say that the impact can be more

:07:07.:07:10.

severe in Wales. If you think about sustaining services across rural

:07:11.:07:16.

communities and generally serving a population that is older and poorer

:07:17.:07:21.

than the rest of the UK. Why is it a problem any Thursday? Part of the

:07:22.:07:24.

reason is, if you're competing for a UK supply of new doctors, let's face

:07:25.:07:30.

it, Wales isn't normally be first choice of many doctors. They tend to

:07:31.:07:35.

gravitate towards the cities, bigger hospitals. There are also concerned

:07:36.:07:37.

that health boards have been planning well enough for the future

:07:38.:07:44.

and the recent bad publicity of the NHS is unlikely to help. We're not

:07:45.:07:47.

talking only as these figures show about the shortage of hospital

:07:48.:07:51.

doctors, we are also talking about a shortage of GPs in many communities.

:07:52.:07:57.

There was proximity of a surgery being taken over by a health board.

:07:58.:08:02.

How do we solve this? We know we have been recruiting from abroad.

:08:03.:08:06.

There is a PR campaign to installing the virtues of Wales as a place to

:08:07.:08:10.

live. The political parties each have their own ideas in the run-up

:08:11.:08:15.

to the election. What is clear is that it will be solved overnight. It

:08:16.:08:19.

takes six years to train a doctor. One positive is that the shortage of

:08:20.:08:25.

nurses is less severe here, although many would argue we need more of

:08:26.:08:27.

them too. Thank you. The tumble dryer company Whirlpool

:08:28.:08:29.

has been ordered to supply information to an inquest about any

:08:30.:08:31.

fires related to one of its models. and Doug McTavish, who was 39,

:08:35.:08:39.

started in a tumble dryer. Anglesey council tax

made next month. BBC Wales can reveal that more

:08:59.:09:11.

than ?200,000 has been spent by the Welsh Government

:09:12.:09:15.

defending itself against claims of infringing copyright over its use

:09:16.:09:17.

of photographs of Dylan Thomas. The pictures show the poet

:09:18.:09:20.

as a young man with his wife, Let's talk to our arts and media

:09:21.:09:23.

correspondent Huw Thomas The costs cover two

:09:24.:09:32.

years of court cases? Yes. Cases in America, Ireland and

:09:33.:09:47.

also in the Netherlands. They are also far unresolved. All brought by

:09:48.:09:51.

an Irish company called palpable star media. This company is the

:09:52.:09:57.

suing -- pursuing the Welsh Government for these photos. The

:09:58.:10:03.

photos themselves show him and his wife not long after they were

:10:04.:10:08.

married. Now, between July 2014 and the 1st of February this year, the

:10:09.:10:12.

governments spent more than ?200,000 defending these claims of copyright

:10:13.:10:18.

infringement. Pablo Star media has also brought a number of claims

:10:19.:10:22.

against individuals and organisations and its managing

:10:23.:10:25.

director told a court in Dublin last night that it had already been

:10:26.:10:29.

awarded some 35,000 euros in damages, around ?27,000, are from

:10:30.:10:35.

those other claims. In Dublin last month, one of the claims against the

:10:36.:10:38.

Welsh Government was thrown out on the grounds that that court was in

:10:39.:10:43.

the right place to hear case. The company will appeal the decision.

:10:44.:10:45.

You've been getting reaction from both sides in this dispute?

:10:46.:10:50.

Yes, the Welsh Government said it will rebuff us to defend all the

:10:51.:10:54.

claims against it and it won't hesitate to seek to re-coop the

:10:55.:10:59.

costs if it is successful. Haydn Price from published media told me

:11:00.:11:05.

that it was a scandal that the Government had spent this much money

:11:06.:11:09.

defending what he called a valid claim. He wouldn't say what level of

:11:10.:11:13.

damages he was seeking from the Welsh Government. He did say the

:11:14.:11:17.

Welsh Government could settle for far less than at marked and

:11:18.:11:21.

invitingly claims. Thank you very much.

:11:22.:11:22.

Flooding in the future could be much worse than we're planning for -

:11:23.:11:25.

because we're looking at the wrong data,

:11:26.:11:26.

That's according to one of the world's leading expert.

:11:27.:11:30.

In an exclusive interview, Professor Mark Macklin

:11:31.:11:32.

of Aberystwyth University has told BBC Wales' Week in Week Out

:11:33.:11:35.

that the risk of flooding could be as much as 40% greater

:11:36.:11:38.

because Natural Resouces Wales do not use all the data about past

:11:39.:11:41.

Bernard and Debbie Eccles are just one couple affected

:11:42.:11:52.

It was all the more upsetting to them because they should have

:11:53.:11:57.

been protected by a flood barrier, but it wasn't put up in time

:11:58.:12:00.

We were actually trying to get the plates off the road with six

:12:01.:12:09.

It was too late then, water was coming

:12:10.:12:16.

The only thing we can do now is just use the bottom of the house

:12:17.:12:21.

It's the fourth time the Eccles have been flooded.

:12:22.:12:25.

Now an expert is warning that we should all

:12:26.:12:27.

get used to greater and more frequent floods in the future.

:12:28.:12:30.

Professor Macklin is head of the river dynamics and hydrology

:12:31.:12:32.

research group at the University of Aberystwyth.

:12:33.:12:34.

He and his team have been studying geological markers

:12:35.:12:36.

Discovering evidence of huge floods in our past which are on a scale

:12:37.:12:44.

that current planning does not take into account.

:12:45.:12:50.

We had, in the late 18th-century, floods which were 20-30% larger

:12:51.:12:53.

If we go back further than that, in terms of the last 3500 years,

:12:54.:13:01.

we are looking at what perhaps 20% larger than that as well.

:13:02.:13:05.

We're actually looking at flood magnitudes that may be approaching

:13:06.:13:07.

in some areas, anywhere between 20-40% higher than what we have seen

:13:08.:13:11.

Natural Resources Wales have compiled flood maps using detailed

:13:12.:13:25.

information from river gauges or instrumental records.

:13:26.:13:27.

However, as these gauges have only been in place

:13:28.:13:29.

for some 50 years, evidence of previous larger

:13:30.:13:31.

Professor Macklin's historical geological data is already

:13:32.:13:34.

being used in other countries to calculate

:13:35.:13:36.

risk and he said it is time we used the same method here.

:13:37.:13:38.

We will need to rethink and remap our flood

:13:39.:13:41.

plains to look at changing flood risk.

:13:42.:13:46.

If we don't, we will be putting more properties,

:13:47.:13:49.

more lives, more livlihoods, more infrastructure at risk.

:13:50.:13:51.

Natural Resources Wales says it does not accepted their their flood maps

:13:52.:13:54.

are underestimating Wales' flood risk, there are however aware

:13:55.:13:57.

of Professor Macklin's work and they are considering a pilot

:13:58.:14:00.

study to see if they can use it to improve their

:14:01.:14:02.

And you can see more of that exclusive interview in Week In,

:14:03.:14:12.

Week Out tonight here on BBC One Wales at 10.40pm tonight.

:14:13.:14:16.

After defeat against Tottenham, Swansea City say the next three

:14:17.:14:20.

And the hidden cameras which filmed the secret world

:14:21.:14:23.

It's the biggest research project ever undertaken in Wales.

:14:24.:14:37.

More than a quarter of a million people are being asked

:14:38.:14:40.

to confidentially volunteer details of their health -

:14:41.:14:42.

to try and help the NHS plan for the future.

:14:43.:14:44.

This is your grandma, and you never met your

:14:45.:14:54.

After losing her mum to cancer, the health of own family has been

:14:55.:15:01.

She's one of nearly 600 people who have

:15:02.:15:06.

already signed up to HealthWise Wales.

:15:07.:15:12.

My mother was 49 when she died and she

:15:13.:15:14.

died of a condition called endometrial cancer,

:15:15.:15:16.

It is a disease that is related to lifestyle

:15:17.:15:19.

Therefore, it has been really poignant for me to try and do

:15:20.:15:25.

something about my health and the health of my girls.

:15:26.:15:27.

The data will be analysed by teams of

:15:28.:15:46.

statisticians here at Cardiff University, and also

:15:47.:15:47.

in Swansea, over the course of decades.

:15:48.:15:50.

The aim is to build up the clearest picture

:15:51.:15:52.

yet of the state of the nation's health.

:15:53.:15:55.

We are living longer, which is a great thing,

:15:56.:15:57.

but that's means that many more people are having to live

:15:58.:15:59.

with long-term conditions and the only way that we are going

:16:00.:16:02.

to be able to develop better treatments

:16:03.:16:05.

for those conditions and to ensure that we maintain good health

:16:06.:16:09.

and well-being throughout people's life

:16:10.:16:11.

span is to understand it the complicated factors that drive

:16:12.:16:15.

The study is backed by the Welsh Government and will be

:16:16.:16:22.

used by the health service here to plan for the future.

:16:23.:16:26.

Officials insist people's personal information will only ever

:16:27.:16:28.

Anonymising the information would be very much part of that,

:16:29.:16:35.

but also making sure that there are public

:16:36.:16:39.

representatives helping us to do that well.

:16:40.:16:41.

If the scheme is a success, Wales will become the first

:16:42.:16:43.

European nation to collate so much detailed information

:16:44.:16:45.

about its population to help plan the health

:16:46.:16:47.

The big challenge facing the project,

:16:48.:16:50.

though, is recruiting more volunteers like Amanda.

:16:51.:16:51.

Through a roadshow and social media campaigns, they hope to have 260,000

:16:52.:16:54.

people taking part in five years' time.

:16:55.:17:04.

The Welsh-made Raspberry Pi has become

:17:05.:17:06.

the most popular British computer yet made.

:17:07.:17:10.

The title was formerly held by the Amstrad PCW which is believed

:17:11.:17:13.

to have sold a total of eight million units.

:17:14.:17:15.

According to the company, which is based in Pencoed,

:17:16.:17:18.

near Bridgend, the Raspberry Pi will surpass that number this month.

:17:19.:17:23.

Now, if you saw someone choking, would you know what to do?

:17:24.:17:26.

Well, one four-year-old pupil from Pantside primary school

:17:27.:17:31.

in Newbridge surprised staff by leaping into action

:17:32.:17:33.

Life saving is something they teach in the school,

:17:34.:17:37.

but as the reception children haven't long started school,

:17:38.:17:39.

little Harvey's class haven't had that lesson yet.

:17:40.:17:41.

Caroline Evans went to meet him and his classmates.

:17:42.:17:43.

I went to the shops. Your turn.

:17:44.:17:45.

It was lessons as normal in reception custody.

:17:46.:17:52.

It was lessons as normal in reception class today.

:17:53.:17:55.

In the midst of it, little Harvey, just four.

:17:56.:17:57.

The other day when his classmate Anya started to choke,

:17:58.:17:59.

His teacher, Miss Watkins, gave me the full story.

:18:00.:18:12.

Anya was eating her lunch and she put some food in her mouth

:18:13.:18:18.

and then, with that, she had a drink and then,

:18:19.:18:20.

as she had a drink, she started spluttering and choking.

:18:21.:18:24.

Thanks to his swift action, Anya is fine and no one could be

:18:25.:18:32.

more proud of him than the dinner ladies who were on duty.

:18:33.:18:36.

Well, I couldn't believe it, to be honest.

:18:37.:18:38.

I was really shocked that such a little

:18:39.:18:40.

child would think of something like that.

:18:41.:18:43.

It is bad enough for an adult but for a child,

:18:44.:18:48.

Playing doctors has really taken off in the school since the incident.

:18:49.:18:54.

The queue of prospective patients is keeping

:18:55.:19:01.

Swansea City remain just 3 points above the Premier League

:19:02.:19:45.

relegation zone after a defeat at Spurs yesterday.

:19:46.:19:47.

The Swans visit Arsenal on Wednesday before a run of games

:19:48.:19:50.

against relegation rivals, which coach Alan Curtis has

:19:51.:19:52.

Cardiff City, on the other hand, are just three points outside

:19:53.:19:55.

Goals have been hard to come by for Swansea city this season. Seeing

:19:56.:20:00.

their new Italian striker grabbed his first on his debut was a and

:20:01.:20:03.

exciting site. It wasn't enough to sustain pressure for from Tottenham.

:20:04.:20:10.

Nasser Chadli deflected Kyle Walker's shot before Danny Rose

:20:11.:20:17.

drove in the weather as Swansea failed to clear a corner. The result

:20:18.:20:21.

left them just three points above the relegation zone after going

:20:22.:20:23.

through the whole of February without a win. They now prepare to

:20:24.:20:27.

face title chasers Arsenal on Wednesday. It doesn't get any

:20:28.:20:33.

easier, certainly. We are growing. We go with baking philosophy that we

:20:34.:20:36.

go there to try and get something out of the game. We know it will be

:20:37.:20:42.

difficult but if we perform, hopefully we can come away with

:20:43.:20:47.

something. Hello Alan Curtis insists the game against birds and Arsenal

:20:48.:20:53.

are not the crucial ones. The next three Saturdays will define their

:20:54.:20:56.

season as they play Norwich, Bournemouth and then Aston Villa.

:20:57.:21:00.

Three teams were all fighting for survival at the bottom of the

:21:01.:21:04.

A brave defensive effort, and tries from Dyddgu Hywel

:21:34.:21:37.

and Megan York, led to a memorable victory at the Gnoll in Neath.

It was a tough game for us this time last year out and we saw

:21:43.:21:48.

We knew exactly what we had to do when we came in.

:21:49.:21:52.

We had to get in amongst it in the first five minutes

:21:53.:21:55.

to have a real opportunity and we were lucky to do so.

:21:56.:21:57.

I think the belief and the determination that we had,

:21:58.:22:00.

it was key today and the fact that he

managed to beat them will give us a lot of confidence.

What happens in the natural world when most of us are asleep?

:22:51.:22:54.

A year long project to record wildlife in parks and woodland

:22:55.:22:57.

across North East Wales has revealed a secret world

:22:58.:22:59.

Infra-red cameras triggered by movement were set up and data

:23:00.:23:02.

from the iWild project will be used to build up a picture of animal

:23:03.:23:06.

Go for a jog or a stroll through your local woodland

:23:07.:23:10.

and you might only see a smattering of wildlife -

:23:11.:23:12.

but once the humans are out of the way, it's

:23:13.:23:14.

Over 12 months, cameras captured more than 3200

:23:15.:23:23.

animals from 37 different species, ranging from badgers to otters

:23:24.:23:26.

including rare sightings of the elusive polecat.

:23:27.:23:29.

Those involved in the project collected each piece of footage not

:23:52.:23:56.

story. We see foxes skulking in the shadows all rabbits running across.

:23:57.:23:59.

There have been so many surprises in so many different things. You would

:24:00.:24:03.

never be able to predict what we would actually be able to capture on

:24:04.:24:05.

each side, which is what you want really.

:24:06.:24:06.

The main point of the scheme is to create more engagement

:24:07.:24:09.

between us and the creatures that share the same spaces,

:24:10.:24:11.

but each sighting has also been recorded on a massive database

:24:12.:24:14.

which tracks the health of wildlife populations in North Wales.

:24:15.:24:16.

The cast of thousands have been given their individual moments

Getting really valuable to show that red quarrels are only in certain

areas. There have been a lot of grey squirrel sightings but not many red
