Earlier this year, the Welsh government said up to £600m could be needed to secure coal tips across the nation.

The assisted dying bill is entering the make-or-break stage. The message from those around Kim Leadbeater is that all is calm and well. She tells me she is "not particularly worried" about 28 MPs changing their minds and overturning the previous, historic, vote at the bill's second reading.
