:00:43. > :00:44.to Telford, which is further away from the Welsh border.
:00:45. > :00:46.That's according to the MP for Montgomeryshire, Glyn Davies.
:00:47. > :00:49.He's taken part in a debate in Westminster tonight
:00:50. > :01:04.It's a short walk for Joy Jones from Newtown to her local cafe but
:01:05. > :01:09.getting to her nearest accident and emergency department is not easy.
:01:10. > :01:13.She knows the journey to the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital too well. Person
:01:14. > :01:18.has epilepsy. Even though it's a 45 minutes away there is no nearer
:01:19. > :01:23.department for her in Wales so like many others in this area she has to
:01:24. > :01:27.travel over the border. During Joshua's childhood she made many a
:01:28. > :01:31.junior in a Amblin 's. It is terrifying because you are very
:01:32. > :01:37.frightened for his life and what's going to happen. You start counting
:01:38. > :01:44.down the miles and trying to work out where you were on the road. It's
:01:45. > :01:47.very frightening in the night and it feels even more frightening. Joy
:01:48. > :01:52.believed in the event of an actual emergency time as a critical factor
:01:53. > :01:57.and people could end up dying on the road trying to reach the AMD
:01:58. > :02:00.department in Telford. I headed out to see how long the journey would
:02:01. > :02:05.take. I have just driven past Welshpool and 17 miles from screws
:02:06. > :02:10.buddy. It's all single track road so it's slow journey. If the AMD
:02:11. > :02:18.department was moved to Telford my sat nav tells me I would have 34
:02:19. > :02:22.mile journey. So it will effectively double the distance. The two main
:02:23. > :02:27.hospitals in Shropshire service only around 400,000 people and they have
:02:28. > :02:31.been problems recruiting consultants so and plans it has to be
:02:32. > :02:34.reorganised. The trust says when emergency department would put
:02:35. > :02:40.specialist consultants in one place improving patient care. But a
:02:41. > :02:44.recommendation to downgrade services in Telford in favour of one
:02:45. > :02:48.emergency department basis Roseberry was rejected by the commissioning
:02:49. > :02:51.group for the area last month. This evening debate was held in the House
:02:52. > :02:57.of Commons on services in Shropshire and mid Wales. The MPs gone Richard
:02:58. > :03:02.described his constituents as being flabbergasted by the latest
:03:03. > :03:05.decision. All I want is up for them in give us an idea how we can move
:03:06. > :03:13.forward from what is a shambles which is putting the interests of my
:03:14. > :03:15.constituents, to put their care at the centre of the plans we have in
:03:16. > :03:19.structure. Tonight the minister announced that the joint
:03:20. > :03:22.commissioning group will meet next week to start the review of the
:03:23. > :03:27.options which could last up to three months. He also stated a new
:03:28. > :03:32.independent chair would be appointed with the casting vote to help decide
:03:33. > :03:34.on a favoured location. It will then go to public consultation.

:04:02. > :04:04.read his impact statement. She said the incident had left her feeling
:04:05. > :04:10.dirty unboned balloon work and that she's no longer to work at night.
:04:11. > :04:13.Witnesses said he went to the bathroom and not long after
:04:14. > :04:20.returning began making several frantic jabs at his throat.
:04:21. > :04:26.Paramedics and the court. He lost consciousness and a lot of lead and
:04:27. > :04:31.was flown to Morriston Hospital. It's not clear what he used to how
:04:32. > :04:34.he gained access to the weapon. Haverfordwest Magistrates' Court has
:04:35. > :04:38.been closed all day and questions are being asked about security. The
:04:39. > :04:43.whole community in Pembrokeshire and the staff working via found the
:04:44. > :04:47.whole incident shocking and disturbing. Serious questions now
:04:48. > :04:54.need to be asked of how is it that in a Magistrates' Court room a
:04:55. > :04:57.defendant was there to plead guilty was able to commit a serious act of

:05:54. > :05:56.was brought into the local pub. The device has been isolated on Herbert

:06:24. > :06:26.week when interim coach Rob Howley Ospreys lock Alun Wyn Jones,
:06:27. > :06:32.who has 105 caps for Wales, is the favourite to take
:06:33. > :06:45.up the position. Alun Wyn Jones is a superb choice
:06:46. > :06:51.because of his consistency of performance. He is always up for the
:06:52. > :06:55.game. His performance level never drops and you would hope the
:06:56. > :07:00.captaincy would not affect him. He is a senior International and the
:07:01. > :07:03.burden of captaincy should not affect his performance. He is an
:07:04. > :07:05.obvious candidate. Football and the former
