:02:51. > :02:54.all? I put it to the deputy earlier. The inspection was in June and we
:02:55. > :03:02.were straight on some of the immediate issues and have attacked
:03:03. > :03:06.those with vigour. This is a very doable transformation because
:03:07. > :03:10.they're CQC Will clear. This is not about clinical outcomes or patient

:03:40. > :03:41.In the report there are some grim readings from patients

:03:49. > :03:50.That seems to show disrespect to the patients in a way.
:03:51. > :03:52.What is your message to them tonight?
:03:53. > :03:55.Certainly the mortuary environment needed refurbishment
:03:56. > :03:58.but we were quite clear we did not have last year the capital
:03:59. > :04:02.There was never any risk to any of our diseased patients.
:04:03. > :04:03.The temperature recordings were all within limits
:04:04. > :04:06.and the refurbishment has already been completed and a final
:04:07. > :04:07.inspection will take place in December.
:04:08. > :04:10.The call bell issue is a direct part of the staffing issues
:04:11. > :04:13.which we worked hard to make sure we have enough staff on the wards
:04:14. > :04:15.to answer the call bells quickly, particularly
:04:16. > :04:18.That has demonstrated an improvement since June.
:04:19. > :04:22.What will you do as a leadership role to make things better?
:04:23. > :04:24.My job is to drive those improvements and I think
:04:25. > :04:26.with extra financial support, extra support for the buildings
:04:27. > :04:30.that we need and are badly in need of repair that people have known
:04:31. > :04:35.The support from our stakeholders I think the quality and the level
:04:36. > :04:40.of improvement really will be very clear for the CQC to see next year.
:04:41. > :04:43.Are you hoping everything can be in place by next year?
:04:44. > :04:48.We are but we need some support from our commissioners
:04:49. > :04:53.and from primary care because there is more that we need.
:04:54. > :04:55.We need at least 60 extra beds in hospital, we need Health
:04:56. > :05:00.and Social Care beds in the community,
:05:01. > :05:04.we need access to end of life facilities outside.
:05:05. > :05:09.It is not all within our bailiwick but as long as we have the support
:05:10. > :05:12.of the Health and Social Care and regulators, I do believe
:05:13. > :05:26.we are the right team to lead this organisation forward.
:05:27. > :05:28.In other news, a murder investigation has been launched
:05:29. > :05:31.in Luton in Bedfordshire after a body was found in a bin
:05:32. > :05:44.The male corpse was discovered at about 9 o'clock last night.
:05:45. > :05:51.The body was found on Essex close. Police say it could have been that
:05:52. > :05:55.the several days. We don't know who the man was or how he came to die
:05:56. > :06:01.but people living in the nearby area say they have been left worried.
:06:02. > :06:06.Everyone is our block is saying they want to move out of here. It is so
:06:07. > :06:11.terrifying. You don't know when the next attack will be. There was
:06:12. > :06:16.shooting around the corner. Shocked it can be found so close to where
:06:17. > :06:23.are working. We walked down here every day and there is always kids
:06:24. > :06:30.about. It is worrying that you could find a body that close. You hear
:06:31. > :06:35.about it in the newspapers but never know it will happen yet -- here.
:06:36. > :06:40.They are linking it with the death of a woman on Essex close. The body
:06:41. > :06:43.was found on Monday 10th of October and initially it was being treated
:06:44. > :06:48.as an unexplained death. Detectives say they are looking into the
:06:49. > :06:53.possibility that she was also murdered. They say this is a complex
:06:54. > :06:58.investigation and working to establish how both the man and the
:06:59. > :07:00.woman to die. A man arrested on two counts of murder remains in police
:07:01. > :07:15.custody. The future of a health care complex
:07:16. > :07:27.has been thrown into disarray tonight. This has come out of the
:07:28. > :07:32.blue. Rumour started seeping out early this evening. For anyone who
:07:33. > :07:36.works at Addenbrooke's, the forum was supposed to be a health and
:07:37. > :07:43.leisure complex for both staffs and patience. It was made up of a
:07:44. > :07:48.private hospital, a hotel and an education centre. Addenbrooke's deal
:07:49. > :07:53.with the contractors to build on the biomedical campus almost three years
:07:54. > :07:56.ago. It was heralded as a first for the NHS with private money funding
:07:57. > :08:03.the project but Addenbrooke's taking a cut of the project -- profits.
:08:04. > :08:08.That was in 2013. The building was meant to be opening this summer but
:08:09. > :08:18.that date has come and gone and with Ramsey Health Care pulling out,
:08:19. > :08:19.there is no time for this. They wonder whether relationships broke
:08:20. > :08:27.down. They declined to be drawn on down. They declined to be drawn on
:08:28. > :08:30.the matter. Tonight, Addenbrooke's expressed disappointment with the
:08:31. > :08:35.decision but said other parties have now come forward. Unemployment has
:08:36. > :08:40.risen for the first time in four months but the number of people in
:08:41. > :08:46.work is still at a record high. The total out of work stands at 120
:08:47. > :08:50.3000. A rise of 11,000 on the previous quarter. The regional
:08:51. > :09:00.unemployment rate is 3.9% compared with 4.9 nationally. 600 jobs are at
:09:01. > :09:03.risk at Travis Perkins. They are closing 30 branches, ten
:09:04. > :09:09.distribution centres and the government says the job market is
:09:10. > :09:12.buoyant. It is always a matter of disappointment when jobs go in for
:09:13. > :09:16.the individuals and families concerned it can be a period of
:09:17. > :09:23.uncertainty. Overall, more jobs are being created then going and that is
:09:24. > :09:27.why we have kept the employment rate as it is. We hope people can get
:09:28. > :09:45.into suitable employment quickly. The rest of the night looks clear
:09:46. > :09:49.with some showers out there. Temperatures down to nine Celsius.
:09:50. > :09:55.The pressure put on tomorrow is similar to today. Showers moving
:09:56. > :10:02.further east. The centre of that low moving away and high-pressure moving
:10:03. > :10:10.in from the west. Dry weather around but still the risk of some showers.
:10:11. > :10:16.Hopefully some sunshine as well. Quite a brisk breeze with highs of
:10:17. > :10:19.13 Celsius. The National Weather Service coming up. Here is our
:10:20. > :10:24.outlook and it is reasonably settled. Dry and bright weather
:10:25. > :10:26.around. An easterly wind develops.
