:00:10. > :00:14.The multi-million pound scheme to transform parts of Plymouth and
:00:14. > :00:17.create hundreds of jobs. Good evening. The owner of Plymouth
:00:17. > :00:21.Argyle has ambitious plans for the Pavilions and Home Park, we'll have
:00:21. > :00:26.all the details. Also tonight: the care of people
:00:26. > :00:34.with learning disabilities. A union's anger over council plans
:00:35. > :00:37.for a private company to run services. It seems they all bring
:00:37. > :00:40.their service users and staff on the scrapheap.
:00:40. > :00:45.And after a 50-year campaign for a bypass why there's now concern it
:00:45. > :00:48.will simply create a bottleneck elsewhere.
:00:48. > :00:58.An �83 million plan to transform a Plymouth leisure site could also
:00:58. > :00:59.
:00:59. > :01:02.create 1,3000 jobs. -- 1,300 jobs. If the scheme gets the go ahead, it
:01:02. > :01:05.will clear the way for Plymouth Argyle owner James Brent to revamp
:01:05. > :01:10.the Pavilions Arena and create a new ice rink for the city.
:01:10. > :01:16.Spotlight's business reporter Scott Bingham is live there now.
:01:16. > :01:21.Yes, all quiet here tonight, no major events, a few people using
:01:21. > :01:26.the ice rink, but this place has provided a lot of entertainment
:01:26. > :01:29.over the years. Recently, there has been talk of demolition. Pavilions
:01:29. > :01:35.Arena has been seen as many as standing in the way of progress,
:01:35. > :01:40.but that could be about to change. Plymouth pavilions was opened in
:01:40. > :01:44.1991 and was beginning to show its age. But it is about to get a major
:01:44. > :01:49.phage -- a major facelift. Plans have been put forward to upgrade
:01:49. > :01:53.the arena and improved lighting and acoustics. There would be a new
:01:53. > :01:57.entrance foyer and an additional backstage space. The scheme will
:01:57. > :02:04.also include housing and shops on the site and should create 800 jobs
:02:04. > :02:09.during construction and 550 once built. It absolutely hit the spot
:02:09. > :02:13.in terms of what we are trying to do. This is just one of the number
:02:13. > :02:17.of projects we are looking to develop over the next few years. It
:02:17. > :02:25.has to be good for Plymouth and the south-west. Beat Paul has already
:02:25. > :02:30.been replaced by B -- this centre and the City will get a �2 million
:02:30. > :02:34.a ice rink. It is fantastic news, for the skaters and for Plymouth
:02:34. > :02:38.generally. Fantastic, we all thought it was going to close down.
:02:38. > :02:42.But far from that, the hope is that the scheme will open up new
:02:42. > :02:47.opportunities and will form part of a league people about linking the
:02:47. > :02:51.city centre with the docks area. Work is underway once more after
:02:51. > :02:59.stalling during the downturn. These new apartments should be completed
:02:59. > :03:03.by summer next year. There is still a long way to go
:03:03. > :03:06.before that becomes a reality, but as you heard from the Chamber of
:03:06. > :03:10.Commerce this would be a step in the right direction. The
:03:10. > :03:13.redevelopment of the Pavilions Arena and people are far are key
:03:13. > :03:16.elements of the scheme. All that is needed now is for the council to
:03:16. > :03:19.approve the plans went its cabinet meets next week.
:03:20. > :03:23.Well, the man behind the scheme is the owner of Plymouth Argyle James
:03:23. > :03:27.Brent. He told us what it could mean for the city and the wider
:03:27. > :03:32.South West. What we are trying to do, and what
:03:32. > :03:38.I think we will achieve, is to create a real sporting, leisure,
:03:39. > :03:47.cultural destination in Plymouth. It will be to the benefit of locals
:03:47. > :03:53.and visitors, increasing for four. It will benefit Plymouth as a city.
:03:53. > :03:56.We have already got the life centre opened on 26th March. We have a
:03:56. > :04:06.great theatre, a football club which we hope and pray will go back
:04:06. > :04:08.
:04:08. > :04:10.to its former glory, and this is complementary. It refurbished Arena
:04:10. > :04:13.will bring the cultural and sporting offering together.
:04:13. > :04:16.Two more members of staff have been arrested following allegations of
:04:16. > :04:19.abuse at a day care centre for people with learning disabilities
:04:19. > :04:21.in Cornwall. It follow the arrest of three members of staff there
:04:21. > :04:24.yesterday. The investigation into the allegations at the council run
:04:24. > :04:34.John Daniel Centre in Penzance began last year, when more than ten
:04:34. > :04:37.people were suspended. Eleanor Parkinson reports.
:04:37. > :04:40.The John Daniel Centre caters for more than 80 people with learning
:04:40. > :04:45.difficulties and disabilities. They depend on a daily basis and can
:04:45. > :04:49.take part in a range of activities, from paltry and gardening to
:04:49. > :04:53.swimming. Last November more than 10 staff were suspended amid
:04:53. > :04:58.allegations of abuse. The investigation was handed over to
:04:58. > :05:03.the police. Two people were arrested today. The man and woman
:05:03. > :05:08.both come from Hayle. Three people were arrested yesterday, a man from
:05:08. > :05:14.Penzance, a man from St Ives and a woman from cent Helston. All five
:05:14. > :05:18.have been released on police bail. It is a sharp. It will be a shock
:05:18. > :05:22.to the people who attend the John Daniel Centre and their carers, and
:05:22. > :05:26.to beat staff within the centre. But what it does do is reflect the
:05:26. > :05:30.fact that in Cornwall, we do take these Safeguarding are vulnerable
:05:30. > :05:34.adults seriously. It was important that we did look at concerns that
:05:34. > :05:37.were raised and dealt with them in the appropriate way.
:05:37. > :05:41.Cornwall council have now begun their investigation and today, they
:05:41. > :05:45.have been talking to staff at the John Daniel Centre, does that have
:05:45. > :05:50.not been suspended and not been subject to any police investigation.
:05:50. > :05:54.The centre has been opened since the investigation began last
:05:54. > :05:57.November. The council say extra staff were drafted in to help the
:05:57. > :05:59.existing ones keep the service going.
:05:59. > :06:02.In Somerset there's concern from parents and care staff over
:06:02. > :06:06.proposals that would allow a private company to run services for
:06:06. > :06:09.people with learning disabilities. The council says they're committed
:06:09. > :06:12.to giving people the best care but many families don't want services
:06:12. > :06:22.taken out of local authority control. Our Health Correspondent
:06:22. > :06:22.
:06:22. > :06:25.Sally Mountjoy is with us now. What is this row about? It is about
:06:25. > :06:30.who provides services for people with learning disabilities in
:06:30. > :06:34.Somerset. That includes residential care, supported live in houses and
:06:34. > :06:38.supporting the people getting their own homes. The local authority
:06:38. > :06:43.provide that now, but the county council wants to reduce the number
:06:43. > :06:47.of services it provides. It is looking at this review. The
:06:47. > :06:52.compelling reason for the change is the desperate need to save money.
:06:52. > :06:54.There are three options: Keep services in house, set up a not-
:06:55. > :07:02.for-profit organisation to run things, or invite tenders from
:07:02. > :07:07.outside. I gather some staff are quite upset? Unison, the you read -
:07:07. > :07:10.- the union that represents the staff, is horrified the council is
:07:10. > :07:15.considering this. They say people with learning disabilities need
:07:15. > :07:19.continuity of care. It is too risky to invite bids from outside.
:07:19. > :07:24.We are appalled. These are vulnerable people. Unison has
:07:24. > :07:27.worked closely with the council to keep services in house and they are
:07:27. > :07:30.throwing their service users and their staff on the scrapheap.
:07:30. > :07:35.What do the users and their families and carers think of the
:07:35. > :07:38.idea? Most of them want the council to continue running services, but
:07:38. > :07:43.one parent we spoke to says whatever happens they should not be
:07:43. > :07:47.bound by a private profit-making company.
:07:47. > :07:52.You cannot make a profit out of this type of service and these type
:07:52. > :07:56.of people. A bit -- it a profit is made, it should be put back into
:07:56. > :08:00.the services provided for these people. It should be a Nantes
:08:00. > :08:03.enterprise, non- profit-making enterprise.
:08:03. > :08:07.The council have told us that they are committed to providing the best
:08:07. > :08:17.possible service. They will keep talking to staff unions, care is

:08:21. > :08:24.crash in Cornwall may face prosecution over his son's death.
:08:24. > :08:28.An inquest jury today returned a verdict of accidental death on
:08:28. > :08:32.Kieran Horn. He wasn't wearing a helmet when he fell off the quad
:08:32. > :08:35.bike last March. A pathologist said Kieran 'most likely 'died as a
:08:35. > :08:40.result of the accident but said he couldn't 'completely rule out a
:08:40. > :08:43.cardiac cause'. Plans to build one of the largest
:08:43. > :08:46.housing developments Cornwall has ever seen near St Austell have been
:08:46. > :08:52.thrown out by a top judge. Wainhomes wanted to build 1,300
:08:52. > :08:55.homes on a 52-acre site at Treverbyn Road. Two years ago, a
:08:55. > :09:00.public inquiry found there was "no pressing need" for so many homes in
:09:00. > :09:03.the area. There are fears tonight that a
:09:03. > :09:06.bypass which is finally going to be built after decades of wrangling
:09:06. > :09:09.might not solve the traffic problems it sets out to cure. The
:09:09. > :09:12.South Devon Link Road will see Newton Abbot and Torquay connected
:09:12. > :09:14.by a dual carriageway, but to get onto the road, motorists will drive
:09:14. > :09:24.over a single-lane flyover which it's feared, will create a
:09:24. > :09:29.bottleneck of its own. Our South Devon reporter John Ayres has more.

:09:34. > :09:38.changeover in the summer, this round -- Road grounds to way halt.
:09:38. > :09:42.It has taken 60 years for the bypass to be removed and now it is
:09:42. > :09:46.going to happen at the cost of �110,000.
:09:47. > :09:51.At the moment we have a dual- carriageway. On the other side of
:09:51. > :09:58.the roundabout, two lanes going to one and that quarters the
:09:58. > :10:02.congestion. The problem is that the flyover linking it will only be a
:10:02. > :10:07.single lane. The fear is that will cause a bottle necks still.
:10:07. > :10:12.Local councillor Gordon hope feels a huge amount of money is being
:10:12. > :10:16.spent and the problem will not be solved. His proposal will give you
:10:16. > :10:21.one lane going from Exeter to Torbay. That is illogical, there is
:10:21. > :10:26.no progress in that proposal at all. We are not building a road for
:10:26. > :10:33.today, not for tomorrow either, this road will be in place for 20,
:10:33. > :10:38.40, 60 years, who knows? We have battled against this road for over
:10:38. > :10:42.10 years, but we do accept it will be built. What we are saying it's
:10:42. > :10:48.OK, if we are going to have a road, let's make sure it is fit for
:10:48. > :10:51.purpose. After years of negotiation, the
:10:51. > :10:55.council has finally got the government's approval for the
:10:55. > :10:58.scheme. They are confident it will work, saying the single lane flyer
:10:58. > :11:03.there has been part of the plans for the last 15 years. Given the
:11:03. > :11:07.scheme is the same that has been promoted through the planning
:11:07. > :11:14.process and the public inquiry for a long time, we have been working
:11:14. > :11:16.on the basis of a single carriageway. That is right to me
:11:16. > :11:19.the trouble demands both now and into the future.
:11:19. > :11:24.Construction should start later this year, but they will not know
:11:24. > :11:27.if it really works until it is completed in a few years' time.
:11:27. > :11:29.We'll be assessing the rubbish situation in Cornwall in a moment
:11:29. > :11:33.where some residents still haven't had a bin collection.
:11:33. > :11:36.Also still to come: We make another of our regular visits to Bampton in
:11:36. > :11:39.Devon where the spring lambs are bringing a seasonal boost to the
:11:39. > :11:49.high street traders. And the Devon teenager who's flying

:11:52. > :11:56.bins and recycling to be collected three weeks after a new waste
:11:56. > :11:58.collection system was introduced. Since Spotlight reported on the
:11:58. > :12:01.story last week, we've received many emails from residents
:12:01. > :12:11.complaining about the lack of collections. Spotlight's Andy

:12:16. > :12:21.Three weeks ago he put his was cycling out for collection and
:12:21. > :12:27.today, three weeks later, they are still there. We had a last

:12:58. > :13:03.one has got any replies or anything done. It is still being an eyesore
:13:03. > :13:06.and plugging things up. Last week, we reported on
:13:06. > :13:12.Cornwall's new rubbish collection system which started at the end of
:13:12. > :13:14.last month. The service has been contracted out. The company did
:13:14. > :13:20.admit they had been teething problems and Cornwall council told
:13:20. > :13:24.us they had improved the hotline for people to call and report
:13:24. > :13:27.missed collections. The problem is if you cannot speak to anyone who
:13:27. > :13:33.can tell you when they are going to do something about it. They just
:13:33. > :13:37.say, we will pass it on and we will be there this weekend. It never
:13:37. > :13:41.happens. No one from the company was
:13:41. > :13:44.available for interview, but the company did issue an apology to

:20:20. > :20:24.qualifications, I have got English and business and now it will be
:20:24. > :20:31.easier. Are you convinced the schemes work to reduce reoffending,
:20:31. > :20:36.or is you walk the walk and them talk the talk and then they come
:20:36. > :20:40.back? I'm convinced the schemes are effective and do work. I'm sure
:20:40. > :20:43.that we will be able to see in the near future the results from some
:20:43. > :20:50.of the work we're doing here. Government is trying to reform
:20:50. > :20:53.prisons, but essentially that means reforming prisoners. And in so many
:20:53. > :21:00.ways, here they think they have turned a corner. The Chief
:21:00. > :21:07.Inspector will give his verdict in a few months time. How many times
:21:07. > :21:10.have you shouted at the television during a rugby match at the
:21:10. > :21:12.referee's decision. Now, the job of a referee in sport is an
:21:12. > :21:15.unforgiving one, putting up with criticism and endless scrutiny. But
:21:15. > :21:18.that doesn't bother 18 year old Beth Martell from Ivybridge. She's
:21:18. > :21:23.set to become one of the youngest referees in rugby, following up her
:21:23. > :21:32.role as a touch judge. Spotlight's Dave Gibbins has been to watch her.
:21:32. > :21:37.Beth Martell is making a name for herself in an unusual way. Having
:21:37. > :21:41.played the sport, she is contributing in a different way.
:21:41. > :21:49.The teenager has planned her move to become a referee by volunteering
:21:49. > :21:56.to run the line for the town's rugby club. Today just three
:21:56. > :22:00.primary things. Beth only turned 18 in February, but is easing into a
:22:00. > :22:05.responsible role as an official. They like to think they can sort of
:22:05. > :22:10.change, make me change my mind. But it doesn't happen. Do they treat
:22:10. > :22:16.you with respect? Most of the time, the only comments they make are
:22:16. > :22:21.have a laugh and try to make me move up and give them advantage.
:22:21. > :22:26.She hopes to give a sports diploma at college, then on to university
:22:26. > :22:34.to study sports therapy. I think it would go, doing what I do now,
:22:34. > :22:39.running the line and when I do my refereeing, it will help me at
:22:39. > :22:44.university and put me in a good place. Is what is the verdict on
:22:44. > :22:48.Beth? When we have been playing away, there has been one or two
:22:48. > :22:53.spectators shall I say, opposition clubs that have sometimes shouted a
:22:53. > :22:58.bit of abuse at her. And to be fair, our supporters and players have
:22:59. > :23:04.backed her up. And they have said, she is right every time. There was
:23:04. > :23:09.a last minute call in the corner, whether it was a try. From this end
:23:09. > :23:12.I could have called it a knock on. But I can't complain, she was right
:23:12. > :23:17.up with play and there was no hesitation and she made the
:23:17. > :23:27.decision. You have got to go with that. It August euros well as berth
:23:27. > :23:27.
:23:27. > :23:35.takes the step up to becoming a fully qualified referee. Good for
:23:35. > :23:39.her!. She is very brave. The lefree -- referee never pleases everyone.
:23:39. > :23:43.Neither does the weather man! We have had some beefy showers.
:23:43. > :23:49.have had some beefy showers. and the wind is back tonight. The
:23:49. > :23:52.rest of the week is windy. We continue to see April showers and
:23:52. > :24:00.the showers, some turning out to be heavy like we have seen today. The
:24:00. > :24:04.strength of wind returns tonight. Last night we saw gusts up to 58mph.
:24:04. > :24:08.That was in Devon. The winds could be equally as strong tonight. What
:24:08. > :24:12.is happening is another area of low pressure is developing to the south
:24:12. > :24:16.of Ireland. That is moving towards us. You can see the cloud around
:24:17. > :24:23.the area of low pressure. Some tightly packed isobars and if I
:24:23. > :24:30.show you the progress, it drifts down to the south-west of England
:24:30. > :24:33.and it is on the southern edge we will see the strongest winds. From
:24:33. > :24:37.Wednesday morning into the evening, the low pressure will have moved
:24:37. > :24:45.away and the isobars open out again. So the main strength of wind will
:24:45. > :24:50.be probably before it gets light tomorrow morning. Between 3 and 6
:24:50. > :24:57.we could have winds up to 60mph. There is some rain mixed in. That
:24:57. > :25:03.is across Ireland now. You can see the winds developing. It is a South
:25:03. > :25:07.West wind and that will bring cloud and rain tonight. So very windy,
:25:07. > :25:13.very wet. And by the end of the night the night the winds dropping.
:25:13. > :25:17.But it will be a slow process and not much of an improvement until
:25:17. > :25:23.later in the morning when the winds become north-westerly. Temperatures
:25:23. > :25:28.not too low, some place down to three or four degrees. Most of us
:25:28. > :25:33.wake up to lots of showers blown in on brisk north-westerly winds and
:25:33. > :25:40.the focus for the heavier showers will be across parts of east Dorset
:25:40. > :25:44.and into Somerset. And we have a warning that the showers could give
:25:44. > :25:49.some torrential down pours. Further west still some showers, but the
:25:49. > :25:55.breeze holds up. A strong north- west breeze will help push the
:25:55. > :26:02.showers through. In between we should see some sunshine. To. E
:26:02. > :26:07.temperatures from ten to 12, but brisk wibdz will -- winds will make
:26:07. > :26:11.it feel colder. And the Isles of Scilly a windy end to the night
:26:12. > :26:15.here. But the winds dropping through the afternoon and becoming
:26:15. > :26:25.north-westerly. Still strong to gale force at time and still some
:26:25. > :26:26.
:26:26. > :26:30.showers. The times of high water are on screen. For the surfing
:26:30. > :26:40.conditions, it will be challenging with some stormy conditions in the
:26:40. > :26:41.
:26:41. > :26:45.morning. The south coast becomes cleaner as the day wares on. As for
:26:45. > :26:50.the coastal waters, the winds very lively tonight. Severe gale force
:26:50. > :26:57.nine for a time, but becoming north-westerly tomorrow, force six
:26:57. > :27:03.or seven, gusting eight at times. Decreasing by the early evening.
:27:03. > :27:06.The outlook is similar. Each day pretty much the same, but the winds
:27:07. > :27:11.drop. By Friday and Saturday it is less windy. But still some showers
:27:11. > :27:14.and because of that we will get perhaps prolonged sunny spell and
:27:15. > :27:19.some showers coming along on Friday and Saturday. But I have to stress
:27:19. > :27:24.it is the strength of wind tonight that could cause a few problems.
