:00:12. > :00:14.Good evening, I'm Emma Vardx with the news in the South.

:00:15. > :00:16.The developer Costain has bden fined more than ?500,000 after

:00:17. > :00:21.the death of a man on a Newbury building site three years ago.

:00:22. > :00:24.Mark Williams, who was 41, died when a forklift truck fell on him.

:00:25. > :00:27.Earlier this year Costain w`s found guilty of breaching health

:00:28. > :00:37.and safety regulations. Charlotte Stacey reports.

:00:38. > :00:44.Last Sunday family and friends gathered to remember Mark Whlliams

:00:45. > :00:49.on the third anniversary of his death. This morning after a lengthy

:00:50. > :00:54.trial Costain, the developer of the site he was working on when he

:00:55. > :00:57.died, were fined for health and safe to breaches. I just hope it does not

:00:58. > :01:01.happen to anyone else and no other family goes through what we have

:01:02. > :01:05.been through. I hope they lhsten. Fine to me is irrelevant re`lly

:01:06. > :01:18.isn't it? Mark is never going to walk through the door again. Mark

:01:19. > :01:20.lived in New or knee in Oxfordshire and was working in a shopping centre

:01:21. > :01:24.in Newbury. A machine he was operating cell and crushed him. The

:01:25. > :01:29.judge described him as a loving son and father of two children. It said

:01:30. > :01:32.lessons had not been learned from two previous incidents wherd the

:01:33. > :01:36.company had been warned abott lifting equipment. She said the

:01:37. > :01:40.amounts did not reflect the value of Mark Williams's life but rather it

:01:41. > :01:44.marked the seriousness of the breaches in health and safety. We

:01:45. > :01:50.asked Costain for a statement but they refused to comment. Thd finding

:01:51. > :01:53.its own right is clearly very heavy and we would hope that as the

:01:54. > :02:06.construction industry continues to improve and everyone is happy about

:02:07. > :02:08.that that principal contractors realise that they also have to

:02:09. > :02:11.manage the risks that go alongside that. The family will not rdceive

:02:12. > :02:13.any of the money from the fhne. It all goes to the Treasury. They said

:02:14. > :02:14.they intend to claim for compensation for his daughtdrs.

:02:15. > :02:16.Southampton MP Alan Whitehe`d's called

:02:17. > :02:19.on Channel 4 to rethink thehr plans for a controversial reality series

:02:20. > :02:24.It follows a heated public leeting last night, at which residents came

:02:25. > :02:26.face to face with producers of Immigration Street, who've `lready

:02:27. > :02:30.It's being made by the same team behind Benefits Street.

:02:31. > :02:39.There's fears over how the community will be portr`yed

:02:40. > :02:48.I think it is fundamentally misconceived about the area. I think

:02:49. > :02:54.it is quite wrong that a colpany comes and sticks a pain in `nd says

:02:55. > :02:56.that is Immigration Street, regardless of the reality of the

:02:57. > :02:57.area. The RNLI is warning that yotngsters

:02:58. > :02:59.who tombstone ` that's jumping into the sea

:03:00. > :03:02.from high points like jettids or To back up that warning thex've

:03:03. > :03:06.issued these pictures, taken in Portsmouth during

:03:07. > :03:08.the current heatwave, of people jumping into shallow water from

:03:09. > :03:10.the battlements in Old Portsmouth The maritime and coastguard

:03:11. > :03:16.agency says 20 people have died A 60% cut in the money given to

:03:17. > :03:25.respite activities for disabled children could be

:03:26. > :03:28.on the cards in Hampshire at a time when other local authorities

:03:29. > :03:32.are protecting those servicds. The reccommendation comes jtst

:03:33. > :03:37.months after Hampshire County Council told the BBC it hopdd to

:03:38. > :03:41.reduce the budget by less than %. The council says

:03:42. > :03:44.the cuts won't hit the front line. Bournemouth Borough Council has lent

:03:45. > :03:53.its voice to the mounting disapproval for

:03:54. > :03:55.the Navitus Bay windfarm scheme It says if

:03:56. > :04:00.the proposals are approved, hundreds of thousands of visitors will be put

:04:01. > :04:03.off travelling to the resort. The plans are currently being

:04:04. > :04:05.considered for approval They've received 2,700 interested

:04:06. > :04:07.representations, the highest ever But just last week plans for the

:04:08. > :04:15.Rampion wind farm off the Stssex coast, one of the world's l`rgest,

:04:16. > :04:27.were approved with little objection. It was the power of the sun that was

:04:28. > :04:31.attracting people to the be`ch at Bournemouth this afternoon. The

:04:32. > :04:36.council wants to keep it th`t way. Today the cabinet voted to oppose a

:04:37. > :04:39.plan for winter turbines 40 miles off Bournemouth. They say it would

:04:40. > :04:43.devastate the tourism econoly, driving away tens of millions of

:04:44. > :04:48.pounds of holiday`makers spdnding but would it really deterred

:04:49. > :04:51.tourists? I think it would be a novelty at first to come down and

:04:52. > :04:56.see about it is not something you really want to see, is it? Would it

:04:57. > :05:02.put you off coming here? It worked, yes. Some people say would spoil the

:05:03. > :05:08.view. Would that bother you? No no, it is the beach, isn't it? Last week

:05:09. > :05:14.the government gave the go``head to a wind turbine farm eight mhles off

:05:15. > :05:17.the Sussex toast `` coast bdtween Peacehaven and wording. Why does

:05:18. > :05:24.Bournemouth think it should be treated differently? Brighton and

:05:25. > :05:28.Hove Council did not oppose it because they have a different offer

:05:29. > :05:33.to that we have here. We have an area of outstanding beauty `nd the

:05:34. > :05:38.only world Heritage site just around the corner. That is why people come

:05:39. > :05:42.here, for the beauty of the natural environment. People have a

:05:43. > :05:45.perception of change but thd reality is very different. A case in point

:05:46. > :05:49.of that would be that the neighbouring authority, the Isle of

:05:50. > :05:52.Wight, they actually think we are underplaying the benefits that the

:05:53. > :05:54.wind farm could have so you can see how different regions and

:05:55. > :05:59.communities are very differdnt with a different approach.

:06:00. > :06:03.Today's decision is not the end of the matter and the final decision

:06:04. > :06:07.will be taken by the secret`ry of state by the government and that is

:06:08. > :06:11.likely to be around one year from now after the general electhon.

:06:12. > :06:14.The Commonwealth Games got tnderway in true Scottish style tonight with

:06:15. > :06:17.Competition starts tomorrow and a host of sporting personalities

:06:18. > :06:20.from the South will be in action over the next 11 days

:06:21. > :06:23.Our reporter Hamish Marshall has been catching up with some

:06:24. > :06:25.of our local competitors at the athletes village and finding

:06:26. > :06:42.out what Scottish delights `re on offer for them at the dining hall.

:06:43. > :06:50.Ahead of the opening ceremony, the village has been filling up. Each

:06:51. > :06:54.nation making it a home frol home. It is a huge honour to be

:06:55. > :06:58.representing your country and it has that label of the friendly Games and

:06:59. > :07:01.it is exactly that. When yot go out to compete you are competithve and

:07:02. > :07:04.backing here it is the wonddrful atmosphere where you feel vdry

:07:05. > :07:07.welcome. Day after day diffdrent sports have been arriving and

:07:08. > :07:13.different people and it is busying up. It is a real sense of

:07:14. > :07:16.anticipation which is fantastic Massively excited. The excitement

:07:17. > :07:19.has been building the closer we have got in getting to the village

:07:20. > :07:28.yesterday with all my best friends I just love it. The hub of thd village

:07:29. > :07:31.is, as ever, the dining hall. With around 4500 athletes in all their

:07:32. > :07:38.support staff they estimate 20, 00 meals a day will be served, catering

:07:39. > :07:40.for all tastes stop they can have a lot of traditional Scottish food

:07:41. > :07:47.like black pudding on white pudding and I get of `` I guess. No

:07:48. > :07:52.deep`fried Mars bars as yet. Team England is the biggest team here and

:07:53. > :07:56.there has been a huge investment in sports science and physio. The

:07:57. > :07:59.athletes are moving towards the limits of human performance so we

:08:00. > :08:03.are trying to eke out marginal gains and this type of area is wh`t

:08:04. > :08:08.delivers that. It is about dnsuring the athlete stays as well and injury

:08:09. > :08:11.free as possible. If a problem happens we treated early and get

:08:12. > :08:26.them back to the field of play. We can move people from off thd podium

:08:27. > :08:29.onto the podium and we can love the bronze into a goal. The athletes are

:08:30. > :08:31.here and the venues are ridhng and awaiting `` ready and the w`iting is

:08:32. > :08:32.almost over. An estimated 1.5 billion people will be watching the

:08:33. > :08:35.Commonwealth Games. The best of luck to all the South's

:08:36. > :08:38.competitors at the Commonwe`lth Games, we'll be following their

:08:39. > :08:39.progress over the coming daxs. That's nearly all from the

:08:40. > :08:42.South Today news team this dvening. Newsnight will be starting shortly

:08:43. > :08:49.on BBC Two but now here's Alexis It was a super day. 84 Fahrdnheit

:09:04. > :09:07.sunshine to start the day tomorrow and staying like that for mtch of

:09:08. > :09:10.the day. There were the clotd building in the afternoon and

:09:18. > :09:21.possibly topping today's 29. A slim chance of a shower in the Wdst but

:09:22. > :09:30.most places stay dry and temperatures will be very shmilar as

:09:33. > :09:48.comes from Philip Avery. Unusually, I can say good morning.

:09:49. > :09:50.Wednesday has been noticeable for a number of reasons. From a

:09:51. > :09:57.meteorological point of view, it was the warmest day of the year for

:09:58. > :09:58.Wales and Northern Ireland. Nothing like it across the East of
