Our top stories: Working life goes on unchanged -

at least for now - but Welsh businesses call for a plan

to deal with the uncertainty after the EU referendum.

And 51,000 days off school because of teachers' stress.

Welsh business leaders have met with the First Minister,

Carwyn Jones, to call for a plan on how the country responds

But how much can be done in Wales when Westminster still holds

Here's our Business Correspondent, Brian Meechan.

What kind of shape Brexit takes in practice UK governments to make sure

Wales stays open for business in the meantime. We are finding the dust

has settled and it is back to normal. Most businesses that were

recruiting prior to Brexit are still recruiting the biggest concern we

have is old investment into Wales. Ferrara number of organisations and

overseas businesses in Wales for a gateway to Europe, and also to track

European funding. Wales benefits substantially from that. We are

concerned there is a knock-on effect long-term to jobs and job security

in Wales. Businesses also won the Welsh government to create a tad

that can influence negotiations to leave the EU. We have a huge amount

of experience in a very fast-moving environment. Let's have the

opportunity to bring that ending gauge. There are so many different

specialisms we can bring to the table. The business task force would

be fundamental for Wales. Carwyn Jones journo meeting of business

leaders. It meets three times a year. The Welsh government set out a

series of measures aimed at stimulating the economy. We have a

growth and prosperity fund of ?5 million to help small and

medium-size businesses, but on top of that, we have to make sure that

investors know that Wales is still a good place to invest, and our people

have the skills they need for them to be successful in Wales in the

future. The initial shock of the result was businesses may have given

way to the sense that there are also potential opportunities in Brexit.

It seems many are waiting to see what happens next before they make

any big decisions. Ukip's assembly group leader

Neil Hamilton has demanded that Ukip Wales leader Nathan Gill sack

an assistant in a row over expenses. Mr Hamilton said he was "outraged"

by a tweet sent by Llyr Powell suggesting he was opposed

to a proposal to pay some of the Assembly Members'

Cardiff accommodation costs. Mr Gill said Mr Hamilton's remarks

were "awful bullying behaviour". French prosecutors are investigating

whether the driver of a coach full of British pupils that crashed

in France at the weekend fell He says he veered off the road

after looking for his sunglasses. The coach - owned by

Express Motors in Penygroes - was carrying schoolchildren

from Cheltenham when it overturned Thirteen were injured.

Two remain in hospital. A man has pleaded guilty

to the manslaughter of a mother of two who was found dead at a house

in Tonna, near Neath. The body of 51-year-old Andrea Lewis

was found in January. Rhys Hobbs, who's 44

and also from Tonna, was due to stand trial

for her murder. There's been a call for more

to be done to tackle It comes as freedom of information

request figures, obtained by the National Union of Teachers,

shows more than 51,000 work days were missed last year due

to stress-related illnesses. The Welsh government says provisions

are in place to ensure a suitable Jenny Nihan from Cardiff

was a primary school teacher, but left the profession last

December after 15 years. She's been telling us

about her experiences. When I first entered the profession,

I really enjoyed it. It was more about the children. There was less

expectation on results and targets. Unfortunately, I wouldn't even

consider at this moment in time returning to teaching. Worklife

balance no longer existed. I felt that I was working a ten hour day in

school, and would come home, see to the children, and work another 3-4

hours in the evening. Obviously, I did the best that I could for the

children in my care, but just in general, quality of my life at home

and for my family, was diminished, because of it. It did make you feel

tired, ill, so that that is not therefore for the best of the

children in your care. I always maintained a level head in school,

but there's only so much stress you can take, and obviously, if you are

unhappy in your job, you are not giving the best, so those kind of

stresses are obviously going to have an impact upon children.

Some parents will skip a meal to feed their children this summer.

That's according to a report by the Trussell Trust charity.

It says demand on its 35 food banks in Wales peaks during July

and August, when there is no access to school

The charity has launched new holiday clubs to offer children activities

Drivers flouting the speed limit along a busy stretch of the M4

around Newport will face tougher enforcement action, according

The warning comes as it launches a road safety campaign to raise

awareness of speed limits, particularly where variable speed

Football, and Stoke City has confirmed the signing of Wales

The 26-year-old has signed a five-year contract

with the Premier League side after the clubs agreed

a fee of ?13 million for the Wales international.

In terms of bringing in a player for quite a modest fee in the current

market, from the new American owners' point of view, it is an

opportunity to strike a PR blow for them. It would get fans onside at

the time there is a bit of an apprehension about the takeover and

what the future might hold. Let's see what the weather has

in store - here's Derek Brockway. Hello there. Last week's Braveheart

spell as a distant memory. It is back to normal this week, meaning

some rain and showers, becoming humid again for a while, but with a

view dryer, brighter spells in extent. For tonight, some dry

weather. One or two macro showers, then later in the night, cloud will

increase, bringing AQ spots of rain. Seeing dry and Monmouth, and lowest

temperatures, 12-15. Tomorrow's chart shows fronts over the Atlantic

heading our way. Tomorrow morning, some places dry, plenty of cloud,

brighter and places, and also one or two showers. Some rain spreading

into the Bristol Channel later in the morning. Across the rest of the

UK, bright in parts of the South and east with sunshine, a lot of dry

weather, one or two showers breaking out, cloudy in the West with some

patchy rain, and that will spread further eastwards during the day. A

fuse showers in northern Scotland, with highs of 16 Celsius in Glasgow,

23 in London. In Wales tomorrow afternoon, mostly cloudy, damp in

places, with patchy rain. Some dry spells possible as well, maybe the

odd glimpse of sunshine, and temperatures around the seasonal

average, 17-20. Tomorrow evening and overnight, cloud will increase

again, with more widespread, heavy rain spreading across the country

later in the night. A wet start on Wednesday, but the rain will

gradually clear, followed by dryer, brighter weather, with hopefully

some sunshine on Wednesday afternoon and one or two showers. Change will

end, so mixed weather this week, some showers, but it should brighten

up on Friday, and turning fresh air again. I will see you soon.

That's Wales Today. Thank you for watching.

From all of us on the programme, goodnight.
