:00:00. > :00:00.Welcome to Wales Today. Tonight's headlines.

:00:00. > :00:00.The leader of the Conservatives in Wales denies he suspended

:00:07. > :00:10.the party's rules in the Assembly to allow the former Ukip AM,

:00:11. > :00:14.This isn't an argument between MPs and AMs.

:00:15. > :00:18.This is argument between the volunteers and the voluntary

:00:19. > :00:20.party of the Conservative Party, and it is their party.

:00:21. > :00:43.The Champions League final will be the biggest sporting event

:00:44. > :00:48.The man in charge of policing it says there'll be a

:00:49. > :00:53.Nice and Berlin are still at the forefront of our

:00:54. > :00:56.planning assumptions and considerations when we're talking

:00:57. > :00:58.about the policing and security and safety.

:00:59. > :01:02.Three women are cleared of force-feeding and manhandling

:01:03. > :01:06.young children at a nursery in Port Talbot.

:01:07. > :01:09.And it's being called Wales' largest living art installation

:01:10. > :01:18.and it's part of a project to encourage us all to Get Creative.

:01:19. > :01:21.The leader of the Conservatives in Wales has denied

:01:22. > :01:24.that he suspended the party's rules in the Assembly to allow the former

:01:25. > :01:31.Andrew RT Davies has told us it "wasn't in his gift" to do so.

:01:32. > :01:36.It comes after UK Conservative sources told BBC Wales that Tory AMs

:01:37. > :01:40.have now put their positions in jeopardy and could be deselected.

:01:41. > :01:44.The latest from our political correspondent, Arwyn Jones.

:01:45. > :01:48.The leader of the Conservatives in Wales welcoming the

:01:49. > :01:55.There's no love lost between the Conservatives and

:01:56. > :01:59.Mark Reckless after he defected to Ukip three years ago.

:02:00. > :02:03.Conservative Party rules are clear, only party members

:02:04. > :02:07.It has been made very clear that Mr Reckless

:02:08. > :02:12.Even his new leader didn't want him two years ago.

:02:13. > :02:15.I have to say, as you go out today, there will be collection

:02:16. > :02:19.buckets at the door so that you can give generously so that we can boot

:02:20. > :02:26.But instead of booting him out, he has welcomed Mr Reckless back in.

:02:27. > :02:31.The answer we were told was the group in the Assembly

:02:32. > :02:34.suspended the constitution, bypassing the rule book

:02:35. > :02:36.to allow Reckless into their ranks and become

:02:37. > :02:44.But surely, a political party can't just bypass the rule book?

:02:45. > :02:49.He's got to explain himself and explain what his group are up to.

:02:50. > :02:53.This is a key ingredient for an elected politician

:02:54. > :02:55.that represent our party that they are a member.

:02:56. > :02:58.This isn't an argument between MPs and AMs, this is an

:02:59. > :03:01.argument between the volunteers and the voluntary party of the

:03:02. > :03:06.Sources within the UK Conservative Party told BBC Wales

:03:07. > :03:11.they were furious that any AM who voted to bypass the rules could

:03:12. > :03:15.be refused the right to stand again at the next election.

:03:16. > :03:18.But today, during a radio interview, the leader in Wales said they'd

:03:19. > :03:25.It wouldn't be in our gift to suspend the Conservative Party

:03:26. > :03:29.Mark Reckless has not applied to be a member of the

:03:30. > :03:33.Mark Reckless has said that, we have said this.

:03:34. > :03:36.This is what is confusing a lot of people, that you have got a

:03:37. > :03:38.nonmember of the party sitting in your group.

:03:39. > :03:45.It happens in democracies across the world and

:03:46. > :03:47.council chambers across the world as well.

:03:48. > :03:56.Last year, they got seven AMs elected to Cardiff Bay.

:03:57. > :03:59.Mark Reckless wrote the manifesto and is now the second AM to turn

:04:00. > :04:05.Mark Reckless is a regional Assembly Member for South Wales East,

:04:06. > :04:08.an area which includes Newport and the theatre where

:04:09. > :04:10.they launched that manifesto last year.

:04:11. > :04:12.That means he wasn't voted in as an individual,

:04:13. > :04:17.How do voters here feel now he has turned his back on that party?

:04:18. > :04:20.He's gone with what is best for him, hasn't he?

:04:21. > :04:23.He could be with the Lib Dems or Labour next week.

:04:24. > :04:29.I don't think he should have done it.

:04:30. > :04:32.On the one hand he is right in that Ukip was

:04:33. > :04:36.set up to get us out of Europe and effectively

:04:37. > :04:41.Ukip really should pack up their bags and cease to exist.

:04:42. > :04:46.There is an overused saying that a week is a long time in politics,

:04:47. > :04:50.the past 24 hours have shown that events can move a lot more quickly

:04:51. > :05:00.Arwyn, where does the party go from here?

:05:01. > :05:07.They add in a bit of a pickle. As far as they are concerned, they

:05:08. > :05:11.definitely is the ascent -- Presiding Officer and she is happy

:05:12. > :05:17.for Mark Reckless to sit as a Tory Assembly Member. The problem comes

:05:18. > :05:21.with the internal Conservative Party rules. Andrew RT Davies said it

:05:22. > :05:27.wasn't in his gift to bypass those rules but I'm informed that a vote

:05:28. > :05:31.was held about precisely that issue. If those rules haven't been bypass,

:05:32. > :05:36.where does that leave Mark Reckless? He can't set as a Conservative

:05:37. > :05:41.Assembly Member. Andrew RT Davies this morning taste is language a Mr

:05:42. > :05:45.Reckless would they -- vote with the Conservative group. I am told that

:05:46. > :05:50.Conservative Party bosses in London are happy to bide their time but

:05:51. > :05:54.will not tolerate Mark Reckless on the Conservative benches in here. We

:05:55. > :05:59.also know Andrew RT Davies isn't a man to shy away from a fight. There

:06:00. > :06:00.are the ingredients therefore political turmoil ahead.

:06:01. > :06:03.Cardiff will be at "its busiest ever" when it hosts

:06:04. > :06:06.the Champions League final on the 3rd June

:06:07. > :06:10.with a "ring of steel" in the city according to the officers in charge

:06:11. > :06:14.of policing the biggest sporting event in the world this year.

:06:15. > :06:18.More than 170,000 fans are expected to travel

:06:19. > :06:20.to the capital for the match, and it'll be broadcast to

:06:21. > :06:25.Around 12,000 staff will be working at the event.

:06:26. > :06:39.It is billed as the best of the best come on the ultimate stage. The

:06:40. > :06:43.Champions League final at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on

:06:44. > :06:47.June the 3rd. Today, organisers revealed detailed plans for the

:06:48. > :06:50.biggest sporting event Wales has ever hosted. A four-day festival of

:06:51. > :06:55.football starting with the women's final on June the 1st. We're not

:06:56. > :06:59.shying away from the fact if you are a small city don't have the

:07:00. > :07:06.infrastructure or the 24 hour were underground or hotel rooms. We knew

:07:07. > :07:10.that we had to find solutions. We worked with Uefa on that. 100

:07:11. > :07:14.private jets will transport the APs to Cardiff to watch the match was

:07:15. > :07:19.that fans will make 60,000 train journeys, that is 15,000 more than

:07:20. > :07:23.during the Rugby World Cup. 1500 officers from around the UK will

:07:24. > :07:27.police the event. They say they have never planned for anything like it.

:07:28. > :07:33.We will be putting in road closures to stop the vehicle attacks we saw

:07:34. > :07:37.in Westminster, Berlin and Nice and considerations around pedestrians

:07:38. > :07:41.and also ticket holders coming to the stadium. Wales is no stranger to

:07:42. > :07:46.hosting global events and the deception they bring. Three years

:07:47. > :07:50.ago the Nato conference brought the road closures and security fences.

:07:51. > :07:56.Most of the rows in the city centre will close at midnight on Saturday

:07:57. > :08:00.June the 3rd and reopen in the early hours of Sunday morning. Cowbridge

:08:01. > :08:04.Road East between Cathedral Road and Castle Street will be shut from

:08:05. > :08:09.Thursday the 1st of June, opening again at 6am on Monday. They will be

:08:10. > :08:13.plenty of closures to in Cardiff Bay where the fan zone will be based,

:08:14. > :08:17.from Thursday the 1st of June until the Sunday night. This is how the

:08:18. > :08:21.champions festival with looking Cardiff Bay. It won't actually be

:08:22. > :08:26.showing the men's final but will host events of the highlights a

:08:27. > :08:31.floating football pitch. Instead of boats here on the water, they will

:08:32. > :08:40.be boots, great was at that. The team sheets last year included

:08:41. > :08:45.Carlos. In Milan, they were 20,000 people to watch the Legends match.

:08:46. > :08:52.This was Milan last year. There were 65,000 hotel rooms in the city,

:08:53. > :08:57.Cardiff has 4000. The festival will take up a lot of space. There's

:08:58. > :09:01.Cardiff park will transform into a campsite and not everyone is happy.

:09:02. > :09:10.We're going to get thousands of people camping in the parks.

:09:11. > :09:14.Hundreds of vehicles parking, tents, toilets refreshments, all of the

:09:15. > :09:19.paraphernalia that go on. We're talking about taking the away from

:09:20. > :09:23.the people for weeks. Organisers say this is an event for the whole of

:09:24. > :09:27.Wales with bilingual branding for the first time ever. But to be seen

:09:28. > :09:32.around the world by a reported 1.3 billion people. The journey to the

:09:33. > :09:36.final four teams, fans and planners is well and away. From now until

:09:37. > :09:37.June, all roads lead to Cardiff. Cardiff Crown Court has heard a man

:09:38. > :09:41.had taken cocaine at some point before crashing a car in Cardiff

:09:42. > :09:43.which resulted in the death Joseph Smith was travelling

:09:44. > :09:46.in the car driven by The jury was told it wasn't possible

:09:47. > :09:52.to say how the drug would have He denies causing death

:09:53. > :09:58.by dangerous driving. The boss of the NHS in Wales has

:09:59. > :10:01.rejected the idea that patients could end up waiting longer

:10:02. > :10:03.for planned treatment as a "trade-off" for quicker

:10:04. > :10:07.emergency and cancer care. The suggestion was made last week

:10:08. > :10:10.by the head of the English NHS. But Andrew Goodall says the health

:10:11. > :10:14.service here should keep making "steady and sustained improvements,

:10:15. > :10:17.across the board". It comes as his annual

:10:18. > :10:21.report is published. The owner of a Port Talbot nursery

:10:22. > :10:25.and two other staff members have been found not guilty of causing

:10:26. > :10:28.cruelty to children. It took a jury at Swansea Crown

:10:29. > :10:31.Court just over eight hours to acquit Katie Davies,

:10:32. > :10:35.Christina Pinchess and Shelbie Forgan of allegations of

:10:36. > :10:39.force feeding and manhandling young children at the Bright

:10:40. > :10:41.Sparks nursery. Innocent of any wrongdoing, these

:10:42. > :10:47.three nursery workers wept as a jury of five men and seven women

:10:48. > :10:50.acquitted them of causing Outside court, a statement read

:10:51. > :10:55.on behalf of the Bright Sparks owner, Katie Davis,

:10:56. > :10:58.and two of her colleagues, Christina Pinchess and Shelbie

:10:59. > :11:02.Forgan, described the impact the allegations have

:11:03. > :11:04.had on their lives. It has been a very sad and emotive

:11:05. > :11:07.case for all concerned. Three women who stand next to me

:11:08. > :11:11.here have completely unblemished characters and have

:11:12. > :11:15.had their lives turned upside down. The nursery Bright Sparks is

:11:16. > :11:18.a wonderful environment for children and that business was set up first

:11:19. > :11:22.and foremost to care for children The Bright Sparks nursery opened

:11:23. > :11:34.in 2014 after its owner Katie Davies It closed last year

:11:35. > :11:37.after Miss Davies voluntarily suspended her registration in light

:11:38. > :11:40.of claims that some of the children there were

:11:41. > :11:44.being ill treated. South Wales Police that

:11:45. > :11:47.investigation after allegations were made by four students

:11:48. > :11:51.who were on work experience placements at the nursery

:11:52. > :11:54.in the latter half of 2015. During the course of the trial

:11:55. > :11:57.the jury heard these students, who had very little or no previous

:11:58. > :12:01.experience working in child care, had either misinterpreted

:12:02. > :12:05.or exaggerated what they had seen. It's not yet clear whether

:12:06. > :12:09.the nursery will reopen. The three women say they hope

:12:10. > :12:12.to move on and continue to It's part of a project to encourage

:12:13. > :12:22.us all to try something And some places are in

:12:23. > :12:28.for the warmest weekend But how long will the warm,

:12:29. > :12:32.sunny weather last? It's crucial Wales has access

:12:33. > :12:45.to the EU digital single market after Brexit,

:12:46. > :12:47.according to a leading voice The sector is growing more quickly

:12:48. > :12:51.here than anywhere else Now, in the third report

:12:52. > :12:55.in our special series, Jordan Davies looks at how Wales

:12:56. > :12:59.could tap into this Not silicon valley, an allotment

:13:00. > :13:06.in the Rhondda Valley. It's a place you may not

:13:07. > :13:10.ordinarily find Mark Thomas, He is here to sell

:13:11. > :13:19.the idea of farm bot. If you could connect

:13:20. > :13:22.technology which could plant and water and weed and harvest food,

:13:23. > :13:28.it could be a really good way of utilising the green space

:13:29. > :13:31.in, say, South Wales. Farm bot is an example

:13:32. > :13:36.of the digital economy You could order your veg

:13:37. > :13:41.online from places like The potential is phenomenal,

:13:42. > :13:45.isn't it, really. Mark is willing to spread

:13:46. > :13:50.the word far and wide. He knows how transformative

:13:51. > :13:54.the digital world could be. His Wales-based online survey

:13:55. > :14:00.company operates in 500 cities. The digital economy will allow

:14:01. > :14:02.us to create a number of jobs which could far

:14:03. > :14:06.outgrow the number of spaces within Additionally, it'd be

:14:07. > :14:12.great to see people stop going down to Cardiff and more

:14:13. > :14:16.people going up to Tylorstown. But what about selling to places

:14:17. > :14:20.like Toulouse or Turin, Europe? The EU's looking to introduce one

:14:21. > :14:24.set of rules for digital products It is called the EU

:14:25. > :14:29.Digital Single Market. It hasn't happened yet

:14:30. > :14:32.and may not happen But David here, a former director

:14:33. > :14:37.for Digital Wales at the Welsh Government, who is now

:14:38. > :14:39.creating successful digital businesses, believes

:14:40. > :14:44.access to it is key. I think it's pretty crucial,

:14:45. > :14:47.I think we need to be part of it. If we are not, we've got to get

:14:48. > :14:52.on with exporting elsewhere. As I said, in many ways,

:14:53. > :14:58.for digital businesses, proximity is actually slightly less important

:14:59. > :15:01.than it is for some. The Economy Secretary also

:15:02. > :15:06.believes access is vital. If we don't have access

:15:07. > :15:10.to the digital single market, the single market for goods

:15:11. > :15:13.and services, then we do face huge challenges in terms

:15:14. > :15:15.of our competitiveness. But at IQE, where their

:15:16. > :15:18.semiconductors are used in close to every smartphone in the world,

:15:19. > :15:23.Brexit isn't a concern. They are aiming to attract more

:15:24. > :15:27.global businesses to create a Welsh semiconductor kingdom

:15:28. > :15:32.known as a cluster. I suspect Brexit will not

:15:33. > :15:36.have a strong impact on the cluster because compounds and

:15:37. > :15:40.conductor technologies are global so we could certainly start

:15:41. > :15:44.to build a cluster that would attract the size of,

:15:45. > :15:48.in the region of 5000 Will Wales become a small

:15:49. > :15:55.clever nation like this Those working in the digital

:15:56. > :16:02.and tech economies are convinced. Much like the endless

:16:03. > :16:04.possibilities for this device, the potential for Wales' digital

:16:05. > :16:12.future is almost limitless. S4C has called for major changes

:16:13. > :16:16.to its finances and its remit if it's to avoid becoming

:16:17. > :16:19.a second class service. The channel's chief executive

:16:20. > :16:21.has outlined his vision for the next ten years

:16:22. > :16:24.but says a radical shake-up is needed to ensure it can meet up

:16:25. > :16:27.with the changing demands He's been speaking to our arts

:16:28. > :16:31.and media correspondent Huw Thomas. The new face of S4C,

:16:32. > :16:35.online only as part of the channel's early efforts

:16:36. > :16:37.to reach new audiences. S4C wants to do more of this

:16:38. > :16:40.in future to ensure its content reaches everyone no matter

:16:41. > :16:45.where or how they watch. But the man in charge

:16:46. > :16:48.of the channel says it will need millions of pounds in

:16:49. > :16:51.new investment at a time when it is still dealing with years

:16:52. > :16:54.of cuts to its budget. We don't have a choice,

:16:55. > :16:57.we have to target those viewers on the platforms of their choice

:16:58. > :17:01.and the platforms they want to use. That costs and therefore we need

:17:02. > :17:05.sufficient finance to do that. If we can't, then S4C might

:17:06. > :17:10.turn into a second-class There is a warning that

:17:11. > :17:13.programmes will suffer There is only one place we can find

:17:14. > :17:19.that finance and that is to Now, I don't think that would be

:17:20. > :17:23.fair, it would mean cutting part of Most of S4C's budget

:17:24. > :17:29.comes from public funds. Around 75 million from the TV

:17:30. > :17:33.licence fee and almost It wants 6 million more to pay for

:17:34. > :17:40.the technology to reach every new digital device and an unspecified

:17:41. > :17:45.sum to spend on new programmes. Its future will be considered

:17:46. > :17:48.by an independent review later this year but securing more money seems

:17:49. > :17:52.far from certain. It could be a struggle

:17:53. > :17:54.to get the money. The government has laid down

:17:55. > :17:56.cuts over the years. One thing that is important

:17:57. > :17:59.is to get some sort of stability because there are a number

:18:00. > :18:02.of reports that we are expecting on S4C including the government's

:18:03. > :18:06.independent report on S4C which may come later this year and maybe

:18:07. > :18:09.at that point we will have an answer to the financial situation.

:18:10. > :18:11.Who knows? The vision S4C outlined

:18:12. > :18:18.today will be part of the evidence it submits

:18:19. > :18:21.to the independent review. The UK Government has struggled

:18:22. > :18:24.to find someone to chair the review which has delayed the start but S4C

:18:25. > :18:29.hopes the work will be completed by the autumn and at least

:18:30. > :18:33.some of the conclusions will support its own

:18:34. > :18:40.vision for the next ten years. It's been a dramatic start

:18:41. > :18:45.to the cricket season, here's Tomos. First day of the season and yes,

:18:46. > :18:48.the wickets have been tumbling. Glamorgan endured a terrible

:18:49. > :18:50.start to their In a nightmare first

:18:51. > :18:54.morning against Northants, In reply, Northants lost three early

:18:55. > :19:13.wickets but ended the day Swansea City have just seven games

:19:14. > :19:18.to maintain their status The Swans, who've picked-up

:19:19. > :19:21.just a point in the last four league games, travel

:19:22. > :19:24.to West Ham United. They're on an even worse run of form

:19:25. > :19:29.with five straight defeats. The Swans are two

:19:30. > :19:31.points from safety. Head coach Paul Clement

:19:32. > :19:33.thinks their relegation fight will go to the last game

:19:34. > :19:37.of the season. There's going to be some

:19:38. > :19:41.tense moments ahead, Every game is really important,

:19:42. > :19:46.every game has got a lot at stake. It's not going to surprise me now,

:19:47. > :19:50.I think, if we have that right up until West Brom on the last day

:19:51. > :19:52.of the season. Elsewhere, Cardiff City

:19:53. > :19:57.are home to Brentford. Wales' women have beaten

:19:58. > :20:00.Northern Ireland 3-1 in a friendly Elsewhere, Cardiff City

:20:01. > :20:06.are home to Brentford. Striker Ricky Lambert faces
