What is the summary of the following article? | The game was goalless when Canaries midfielder Gary O'Neil saw red for needlessly clattering through the back of Ibrahim Afellay on the touchline.
Stoke's Jon Walters slid in the opener at the far post, only for Jonny Howson to level with a 20-yard half volley.
Joselu's low drive and Ryan Bennett's headed own goal sealed the home win.

Reaction to all of Wednesday's Premier League games
Norwich started the match in 15th position in the Premier League, and knew an away victory would open up an eight-point gap between them and the relegation zone.
And, having won three of their previous four league matches, the Canaries started positively at the Britannia Stadium.
The visitors shaded possession and territory in the opening half an hour, with centre-half Bennett's strike stretching Stoke keeper Jack Butland.
However, their efforts were severely hampered by O'Neil's rash challenge.
The 32-year-old midfielder wiped out Stoke counterpart Afellay as the ball harmlessly ran towards touch, leaving referee Neil Swarbrick with no option other than to produce a straight red card.
Norwich comfortably held out until half-time, but buckled after the break as Stoke eventually made their 72% of second-half possession pay.
"The whole evening turned on that incident," admitted Canaries manager Alex Neil afterwards. "It didn't need to happen."
Stoke have been predictably unpredictable this season, impressing with thrilling wins against Chelsea, Manchester City, Manchester United and Everton, only to implode against the likes of West Brom, Watford and Sunderland.
But victory, coupled with Liverpool and Watford both dropping points, moved the Potters just four points adrift of the top four.

However, Mark Hughes' side were far from their fluent best for large periods against Norwich, despite their numerical advantage.
They have struggled to score goals at the Britannia Stadium this season, netting just 10 in their previous nine home matches, and looked to be heading towards another frustrating night after Howson's surprise leveller.
But Spanish striker Joselu's crisp shot from the edge of the area eased any lingering tension.
The Potters were firmly in control from then on, Bennett's unfortunate header from Afellay's clipped free-kick sealing Stoke's third win in four league matches.
Stoke manager Mark Hughes:
"We know we didn't play as well as we can but it is great to get maximum points when we know the squad didn't play to the heights that they can.
"Sometimes it is more difficult to play against 10 men than it is against 11 if they keep their organisation - which they did to good effect. They've got pace as well so we had to be vigilant. But in the end we saw the game out quite comfortably.
"If we continue in this run then who knows where we can get to. We have just got to keep close to the guys in front."

Norwich manager Alex Neil:
"Up to the sending-off we performed very well and had the best chance through Ryan Bennett. But after that point it becomes tough.
"After conceding the opener we showed character to equalise, but we didn't squeeze the ball quick enough for their second goal.
"When you're drawing the game you've got something to hang on to and I think Stoke were getting agitated."
Stoke are back at the Britannia Stadium on Sunday when they welcome Premier League leaders Arsenal.
Norwich face another important away trip on Saturday, going to a Bournemouth side which is one place and two points behind them in the top-flight table.

Give a concise summary of the following information. | Galina Timchenko was fired after the state media regulator issued the website with a warning for publishing material of an "extremist nature".
She will be replaced by Alexei Goreslavsky, who until recently headed a staunchly pro-Kremlin website.
Her departure comes after several recent attacks on independent media.
By Stephen EnnisBBC Monitoring
The abrupt removal of Ms Timchenko is being seen as yet another blow to the country's embattled independent media.
One of the most respected figures on the Russian media scene, she has been at Lenta.ru from the start and became editor-in-chief in 2004.
"Under her guidance, Lenta.ru became the best web publication in Russian," liberal journalist Aleksandr Plyushchev wrote.
Her successor, Alexei Goreslavsky, until recently headed the staunchly pro-Kremlin website, Vzglyad.ru. According to opposition activist and blogger Leonid Volkov, he was also a media adviser on the campaign that helped elect Sergei Sobyanin, an ally of President Putin, as Moscow mayor last September.
Her departure is being seen as another blow to freedom of speech in Russia.
A statement by the editorial staff reflected on the "dramatic decline" in the scope for free journalism in Russia: "The problem is not that there is nowhere left for us to work. The problem is that there is nothing left, it seems, for you to read."
Ukraine hits back at Russian TV onslaught
The decision to dismiss Ms Timchenko was made by Lenta.ru's owner Alexander Mamut. It was immediately criticised by the website's editorial staff who complained of direct pressure being placed on them and a "dramatic decline" in the scope for free journalism in Russia.
"The dismissal of an independent chief editor and the appointment of a person who can be controlled from outside, including directly from offices in the Kremlin - that is already a violation of the media law," read the statement signed by 69 Lenta staff on the website's front page.
Writing on her Facebook page, Ms Timchenko said simply: "That's it. Thank you, it was interesting."
Media regulator Roskomnadzor cited an interview published two days earlier with a leading member of the Ukrainian ultra-nationalist group, Right Sector, referring to a hyperlink in the text that led to its leader, Dmitriy Yarosh.
It said the material contained statements inciting ethnic hatred. A Moscow court issued an arrest warrant for Mr Yarosh on Wednesday on charges of inciting terrorism.
Founded in 1999, Lenta is considered one of Europe's most visited news websites and last year became part of Mr Mamut's Afisha-Rambbler-SUP media group.
It is the latest media outlet in Russia to come under the scrutiny of the authorities:
Ekho's veteran editor-in-chief Aleksey Venediktov, whose future is also being considered, condemned Ms Timchenko's removal as a "clearly political decision".
Mr Mamut, a 54-year-old billionaire who also owns UK bookshop chain Waterstone's, has an estimated fortune of $2.3bn, according to Forbes. | The chief editor of popular Russian news website Lenta.ru has lost her job over an interview it published with a far-right Ukrainian nationalist. |
Please give a summary of the document below. | Arcan Cetin was arrested in his hometown Oak Harbor on Saturday, nearly 24 hours after the attack in Burlington, 40 minutes' drive away.
He was born in Turkey and is a legal US permanent resident, officials say.
Investigators say they are not ruling out any motives, including terrorism.
Cetin's stepfather says he has a history of mental health issues.
According to the Associated Press, Cetin's postings online included references to a serial killer and Adolf Hitler, as well as pictures of so-called Islamic State's leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, and the Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khomenei.
Five people - a teenage girl, three women and a man - were killed inside Macy's department store at Cascade Mall on Friday.
Court documents filed by prosecutors allege that Cetin confessed to shooting all five victims with a rifle.
Police said in court papers that all five victims were shot within a minute and the rifle was left on a cosmetics counter before the gunman fled.
At a news conference, police said Cetin had been identified as a suspect after a car connected to him was seen on security camera footage at the shopping centre.
Lt Mike Hawley, of Island County sheriff's department, said the car was later spotted in Oak Harbor. He said he had been on his way to the scene when he saw the suspect by the side of a road and arrested him.
Lt Hawley said the man "said nothing, he was zombie-like" and was not carrying a weapon.
The Seattle Times reported that the youngest victim was 16-year-old Sarai Lara, who had survived cancer as a young child.
Her mother described her as a happy, responsible, driven student.
Burlington is about 65 miles (105km) north of Seattle.
The bans were imposed on some French resorts as a measure to protect public order, but one French court has already suspended one, saying it "breached fundamental freedoms".
Many of the most shared cartoons protest not only the ban but the challenges and criticism women across the world face over their choice of clothing.
An anonymous French artist drew a woman half clothed and half topless with notations showing the type of comments women can face. The original drawing was shared almost 10,000 times before another artist translated it into English.
Artist Khalid Cherradi said his work showed how the clash between eastern and western values tends to focus on how women dress.
Illustrator Nawak said the ban amounted to "hypocrisy on the beach". Two police officers are shown asking a nun dressed in a habit: "We are looking for ostentatious religious symbols - have you seen a burkini or a Muslim woman wearing a head scarf?" His cartoon was shared more than 12,000 times on Facebook but was also criticised by those who support the ban.
Another artist Maarten Wolterink, labelled this picture: "We're here to help you."
Artist Khalid Albaih tweeted this image, asking "Laws - to cover or uncover?"
The ban has ignited discussion across the world. Artist Amy Clancy in the UK added her views with the simple phrase "C'est ridicule!"
JCB chairman Sir Anthony Bamford said the donation recognised the important "deep roots and long links with manufacturing in Staffordshire".
The Art Fund said it had raised more than £2.3m after an "extraordinary tide" of recent donations.
It needs £2.74m to buy the collection by 30 November, before administrators sell it to the highest bidder.
The collection is being sold to help pay off some of the ceramics firm's pension bill.
The pension debt was inherited by the museum after Waterford Wedgwood Plc collapsed in 2009.
Its collection of more than 80,000 historical pieces, works of art, photographs and archival material from Wedgwood's 250-year history is valued at £15m.
The Art Fund director Stephen Deuchar said the appeal had received "exceptional" public support in addition to a pledge of £13m from the Heritage Lottery Fund.
JCB's donation, through the Bamford Charitable Foundation, has been match-funded by a private charitable trust, giving £200,000 to the appeal.
About 8,000 former workers were paid by the Pension Protection Fund, and in 2011 a judge ruled the collection could be sold to pay back the remaining debt. | Prosecutors in the US state of Washington say a 20-year-old man in custody has confessed to going on a murderous rampage in a shopping centre, which left five people dead.

Summarize the information in the following document. | The US team, reporting in Nature, also worked out exactly how all the components of the shell or 'capsid' fit together at the atomic level.
Until now the exact structure had proved elusive because of the capsid's large size and irregular shape.
The finding opens the way for new types of drugs, the researchers from the University of Pittsburgh said.
It was already known that the capsid, which sits inside the outer membrane of the virus, was a cone-shaped shell made up of protein sub-units in a lattice formation.
But because it is huge, asymmetrical and non-uniform, standard techniques for working out the structure had proved ineffective.
The team used advanced imaging techniques and a supercomputer to calculate how the 1,300 proteins which make up the cone-shaped capsid fit together.
The process revealed critical interactions between molecules in areas that are necessary for the shell's assembly and stability.
These potential vulnerabilities in the protective coat of the viral genome could be exploited by scientists designing new drugs to tackle the problem of HIV resistance, the researchers explained.
Study leader Dr Peijun Zhang, associate professor in structural biology at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine said: "The capsid is critically important for HIV replication, so knowing its structure in detail could lead us to new drugs that can treat or prevent the infection.
"The capsid has to remain intact to protect the HIV genome and get it into the human cell, but once inside, it has to come apart to release its content so that the virus can replicate.
"Developing drugs that cause capsid dysfunction by preventing its assembly or disassembly might stop the virus from reproducing."
She added that the fast mutation rate of HIV made drug resistance a big problem.
"This approach has the potential to be a powerful alternative to our current HIV therapies, which work by targeting certain enzymes."
Prof Simon Lovell, a structural biologist at the University of Manchester, said not only had the researchers managed to achieve something that was very difficult, they had also found some really interesting results.
"The big problem with HIV is that it evolves so quickly that any drug you use you get drug resistance which is why we use a multi-drug cocktail.
"This is another target, another thing we can go after to develop a new class of drugs to work alongside the existing class." | Researchers have for the first time unravelled the complex structure of the inner protein shell of HIV. |
Can you write a brief summary of this passage? | The Thaad system is designed to protect against threats from North Korea.
Hundreds of local residents protested against the deployment, as vehicles carrying equipment arrived at the site in the south of the country.
China argues Thaad will destabilise security in the region.
The US has in recent days deployed warships and a submarine to the Korean peninsula, amid fears North Korea could be planning further missile or nuclear tests.
The Trump administration, which has been urging China to rein in its ally, North Korea, is due to hold a classified briefing for senators on the situation at the White House later on Wednesday.
The Terminal High-Altitude Area Defense (Thaad) system is designed to intercept and destroy short and medium-range ballistic missiles during their final phase of flight.
"South Korea and the United States have been working to secure an early operational capability of the Thaad system in response to North Korea's advancing nuclear and missile threat," South Korea's defence ministry said in a statement.
The system - agreed last year under the Obama administration - is not expected to be operational until the end of 2017, it added.
The development coincides with China launching a new aircraft carrier - the first to be made domestically - in a bid to boost its own military presence in the region.
Television footage showed military trailers carrying what appeared to be defence equipment to a disused golf course some 250km (155 miles) south of the South Korean capital Seoul on Wednesday morning.
Dozens of police lined the road, trying to block hundreds of protesters, some of whom were hurling water bottles at the vehicles.
More than 10 people were injured in the clashes with police, activists said. Many of the protesters were local residents of the two towns closest to the military site.
"We will continue our fight and there's still time for Thaad to be actually up and running so we will fight until equipment is withdrawn from the site and ask South Korea's new government to reconsider the plan," protester Kim Jong-kyung told Reuters news agency.
Police were unable to confirm the casualties.
What impact will S Korea's expanded missile defence system have?
China has expressed "serious concern" over the Thaad deployment and is urging the US and South Korea to withdraw the system, foreign ministry spokesman Geng Shuang told reporters on Wednesday.
The deployment has caused significant tension with China - South Korea's largest trading partner - and coincided with a number of economic measures imposed by China, including a ban on tour groups which saw a 40% drop in the number of Chinese visitors in the past month.
South Korea last month lodged a complaint with the World Trade Organization, but China denies its recent moves are related to the Thaad deployment.
With tensions high in the region, North Korea and the US are continuing to exchange heated rhetoric over the scale of Pyongyang's missile and nuclear programme.
US Vice-President Mike Pence warned North Korea not to "test" President Donald Trump, after it conducted a failed ballistic missile test on 16 April.
On Tuesday, a US submarine - the USS Michigan - joined a group of warships in the Korean peninsula led by aircraft carrier Carl Vinson.
US President Donald Trump had earlier vowed to send an "armada" to the region over North Korea's missile tests.
North Korea meanwhile threatened to sink the aircraft carrier and launch a "super-mighty pre-emptive strike" against what it called US aggression.

Give a brief summary of the content. | The Senora Trust wants to bring the Senora, which was built on the Wear in 1908, back from a scrapyard.
They said the boat was weeks away from being used as firewood.
The restoration will be carried out by 24 trainees and is hoped to be completed for Sunderland's hosting of the 2018 Tall Ships Festival.
North East builders' merchant James Burrell donated £10,000 to the restoration campaign, with the rest coming from public donations.
The Senora Trust is now working to raise £250,000 to launch the next phase of the project.
Kim Simpson from the trust said: "Now that we have purchased her for Sunderland, she will become The People's Yacht, creating training and jobs.
"When she is restored to her former glory, she'll give hundreds of people every year the chance to enjoy sailing for themselves."

The winger has rejected a new deal but Reds boss Brendan Rogers expects the 20-year-old to see out the remaining two years of his contract at Anfield.
Henderson, who could play alongside Sterling for England on Sunday, also dismissed criticism of his team-mate.
"He is not who people think he is," said the 24-year-midfielder.
Sterling has caused controversy by rejecting a new £100,000-a-week contract with the club while his agent Aidy Ward reportedly said the player will not sign a new deal even if he was offered "£900,000 a week".
Henderson, speaking to Radio 5 live's John Murray, said: "He gets a bit of criticism because of how things have been dealt with, but I know him better as a person.
"I could not fault him as a person or a player. He is a great lad and gives everything for the team.
"For such a young lad he is so mature and does not let the outside world affect him.
"His work ethic is amazing. He is improving all the time. I hope we can keep him at Liverpool for many years, he can blossom here and become a top player."
Liverpool were thrashed 6-1 on the final day of the Premier League season to end a disappointing campaign for Rodgers' side which saw them fail to qualify for the Champions League and lose an FA Cup semi-final to Aston Villa.

But Henderson, who often deputised as captain for the now departed Steven Gerrard, thinks the team will learn from their mistakes.
He is also relishing the prospect of playing with new signing and fellow England international James Milner, who has signed from Manchester City.
"The result at Stoke was not acceptable and we know as players it was embarrassing for us and the club," said Henderson.
"It was a very up and down season, very disappointing but a lot of the younger lads will be able to learn from the experience.
"Milner is a fantastic signing, not only as a player for his quality but as person in the dressing room, on the training field and the experience he has got - it is a massive signing."
England are unbeaten in nine games and have not lost since their defeat to Uruguay at the World Cup in Brazil just under a year ago.
They visit Republic of Ireland in Dublin for a friendly on Sunday afternoon, and Henderson said: "I do not think it will be like a friendly. We are unbeaten and want to keep that run going as long as possible, it doesn't matter if it is a friendly or a qualifier.
"We want a win against Ireland, we need to be winning. The Scotland game was similar. The atmosphere that day was brilliant, it was a good performance form the team and we hope for the same on Sunday." | A 107-year-old yacht is nearing a return to Sunderland for restoration after campaigners raised more than £20,000 in three weeks.

From South Sudan, Nicola has been making headlines playing for the Catholic Central High School in Windsor, Ontario, since arriving in Canada six months ago.
He enrolled as a 17-year-old grade 11 student and quickly became the star player on the Catholic Central Comets senior boys' basketball team.

He is being kept at a detention centre by the Canada Border Services Agency, which told the Guardian: "When he recently applied for a US visitor visa, it was determined by fingerprint match that he was the same individual who had made a previous application to the US using a DOB of November 1, 1986." | A college basketball player tipped to make the NBA could turn out to be 29 years old, not 17. |
What is the summary of the following article? | The Victims Support Programme, worth £18.7m and European Union's PEACE IV programme worth a further €17.6m (£14.9m), have opened together.
The Victims and Survivors Service (VSS) has invited organisations which work with or represent victims and survivors to apply for the funding.
The aim is to make the process simpler for organisations applying to them.
First Minister Arlene Foster said the executive was "committed" to improving services for victims and survivors.
"I am confident that the opening of these two key funding streams will enhance the services already provided by the Victims and Survivors Service," she said.
"As an executive we will continue to do everything possible to provide the best services available to victims and survivors to improve their quality of life and ensure their needs are being fully met," she added.
The Deputy First Minister, Martin McGuinness said "victims and survivors are some of the most vulnerable people in society and it is imperative to provide services which are sensitive yet responsive to their needs".
"Meeting the needs in a way that is outcome focused and victim centred is crucial," he added.
"This funding in excess of £30m will go some way to helping us achieve this."
Shetland Coastguard said it was alerted to the incident by police at about 01:45.

The coastguard said they were then checked over by paramedics.
He has long made a commitment to holding the referendum by the end of 2017. But even after difficult talks, here was what seemed a new confidence from David Cameron that he can achieve a deal and then a public vote next year.
He was careful to say the timetable might slip, acknowledging it is tight. But there is a new urgency.
Mr Cameron came to Brussels promising to inject political momentum into his attempt to change the rules of the EU. It is arguably the biggest project he has undertaken as prime minister, and indeed, his biggest political risk.
He leaves with a promise on paper at least, from the rest of the EU to try to find a deal on all of the four areas of European law that he wants to change - slimming down rules and regulation, slowing down political integration, cutting back on EU immigration and protecting Britain's interests as a country inside the EU but not in the euro.
Even this formal commitment to help has taken time and persuasion, and is a very long way from conclusion.
And the prospect of banning some benefits for EU workers in the UK for four years as David Cameron wants is tiny. For Eurosceptics in his own party his proposals are not enough to change their minds.
There are few clues of how final agreements will be reached, although opt outs of EU law rather than a whole new treaty are possible.
To keep the timetable he has publicly set today, getting to a yes in Brussels, then at home will occupy much of David Cameron's time from now on.
But his officials are somewhat relieved that they have got this far - confident that there is a path towards a deal, rather than a road to nowhere. | A fresh funding package worth more than £30m has opened for victims and survivors of the Troubles.

Can you write a brief summary of this passage? | It will be the 41-year-old ex-England batman's 26th county campaign and he has scored more than 25,000 first-class runs at an average of 41.
Earlier this season, Trescothick set a new Somerset record by hitting his 50th first-class century for the county.
"My hunger, desire and passion to play is as strong as it was when I started," he told the club website.
Trescothick played 76 Tests, 123 one-dayers and three T20 internationals for England.
But he decided to end his international career in 2008 after suffering from a stress-related illness, which made it difficult for him to travel abroad.
The left-hander subsequently captained Somerset for six years before giving up the job ahead of the 2016 season.
He has struggled for form this summer, scoring 385 runs in their first nine Championship games, at an average of 24.
Somerset chief executive Lee Cooper said: "His work ethic is second to none and what he offers in the dressing room is absolutely invaluable.
"His enthusiasm for the game is infectious and his wealth of experience is priceless."

Mr Hollande said money for the plan would come from savings in other areas of public spending.
"These €2bn will be financed without any new taxes of any kind," said President Hollande, who announced the details during an annual speech to business leaders.
"Our country has been faced with structural unemployment for two to three decades and this requires that creating jobs becomes our one and only fight."
France was facing an "uncertain economic climate and persistent unemployment" and there was an "economic and social emergency", he said.
The president said recently that the country's social emergency, caused by unemployment, was as serious as the emergency caused by terrorism.
He called on his audience to help "build the economic and social model for tomorrow".
The president also addressed the issue of labour market flexibility.
"Regarding the rules for hiring and laying off, we need to guarantee stability and predictability to both employers and employees. There is room for simplification," he said.
"The goal is also more security for the company to hire, to adapt its workforce when economic circumstances require, but also more security for the employee in the face of change and mobility".
However, the BBC's Paris correspondent Hugh Schofield said there was widespread scepticism that the plan would have any lasting impact.
"Despite regular announcements of plans, pacts and promises, the number of those out of work continues to rise in France.
"With a little over a year until the presidential election in which he hopes to stand for a second term, President Hollande desperately needs good news on the jobs front. But given the huge gap so far between his words and his achievements, there is little expectation that this new plan will bear fruit in time", our correspondent said.

"The states that exist in the region do not really have a monopoly on the use of force," LSE Professor Fawaz Gerges told Newshour Extra.
That means that some central governments are now relying on militants and non-state actors to defend them.
Even the most precious Middle Eastern resource of all - oil - is slipping out of government control.
The Iraqi Kurds have been creating a legal infrastructure for oil exports for nearly a decade, while rebel forces in Libya and the Islamic State group have both accrued revenues from the oil industry.
While non-state actors find it difficult to sell crude oil, smuggling refined gasoline products is far easier.
"There is a network which crosses religious and ideological borders where you have people buying and selling petroleum, diesel and gasoline products across the whole region," says oil industry consultant John Hamilton. "And it's very profitable."
There are many explanations for the winds of change sweeping through the Middle East.
Depending on their point of view, analysts cite the failure of Arab nationalism; a lack of democratic development; post-colonialism; Zionism; Western trade protectionism; corruption; low education standards; and the global revival of radical Islamism.
But perhaps the most powerful immediate force ripping Middle Eastern societies apart is sectarianism. Throughout the region Sunni and Shia Muslims are engaged in violent conflict.
The two regional superpowers, Saudi Arabia and Iran, both sponsor proxy forces to fight their battles for them.
In times past the global superpowers were able to keep the Middle Eastern nation states intact, but it's far from clear that either Washington or Moscow now have the power or the will to reunite countries such as Syria, Libya, Yemen and Iraq.
Looking further ahead, the question most Western diplomats are asking is not whether the old order can be rebuilt but whether still-intact countries such as Egypt, Jordan, Bahrain and even Saudi Arabia can hold the line.
Most of the nation states in the Middle East were created in the aftermath of the First World War. The Sykes-Picot agreement and arrangements made by the League of Nations established the borders that exist today.
The biggest change since then came with the creation of Israel in 1948.
Israel's borders remain a matter of impassioned debate. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's new Deputy Foreign Minister, Tzipi Hotovely, recently told members of the Israeli diplomatic corps that they should tell the world that the West Bank belongs to the Jews.
Some Palestinians also dream of border change - however it comes.
"They see the chaos in Iraq and Syria and this hideous machine called IS [Islamic State] as potentially the only game-changer that might ultimately call all the borders into question in a way that might eventually benefit the Palestinians," says Professor Rosemary Hollis of City University, London.
"Otherwise they see their future as miserable."
The Middle East is facing years of turmoil. Many in the region are increasingly driven by religion and ideology rather than nationalism.
For them - whether conservative or liberal, religious or secular - the priority is not to change lines on the map but to advance their view of how society should be organised.

Give a brief summary of the provided passage. | They warn of "serious mistakes" in the introduction of changes to tests and say results are too "unpredictable".
This year's primary tests also saw a series of leaks and cancellations.
But the Department for Education said its reforms would "help ensure all children leave primary school having mastered the basics".
Leaders of the National Association of Head Teachers have written an open letter to Education Secretary Nicky Morgan urging her to cancel the public use of any data from this year's primary tests.
It would mean there would be no primary school league tables, based on the tests taken by 10 and 11 year olds.
The head teachers' union says that individual pupils should be given their results, with warnings to parents about concerns about their reliability, but the results were not robust enough to be used to make comparisons between schools.
Heads are complaining about "inadequate" time to prepare for changes, "obscure guidance" and "massive variations" in how schools approached the tests.
They say that the outcomes of the tests are likely to be so "skewed" that "comparisons between schools become very risky".
The heads' union says ministers need to address the "growing disquiet about assessment".
There were further difficulties this year when part of the English test for seven year olds had to be cancelled because questions had been published on a Department for Education website.
There were then claims of a "rogue marker" trying to disrupt the exams, when part of the English paper for 11 year olds was put on to a password-protected website the day before it was due to be taken.
Baseline tests for reception pupils also had to be scrapped, when it was found that the different types of tests being used did not produce consistent results.
A Department for Education spokesman said: "We have reformed the primary curriculum to help ensure all children leave primary school having mastered the basics, and the support and hard work of teachers is key to making this happen.
"We are determined to get this right and remain committed to working with teachers and head teachers as we continue with our primary assessment reform. We will respond to this letter in due course."

Harry's parents Amy Allen and Edward Studley said in a statement issued through the police: "We very much appreciate the help and support of our family, friends and local community at this very difficult time.
"We are concentrating our focus on our son Harry's recovery and would appreciate if we could have our privacy respected in order to allow us to do so."
Police, who believe Harry received the injury from one pellet, say they are not looking for anyone else.

The golfer, one of the US's richest and most-admired sportsmen, said he was co-operating with the government inquiry.
Mr Mickelson, investor Carl Icahn and William Walters, a high-profile gambler, are being investigated for possible illegal share sales, using information given by Mr Icahn.
Mr Icahn has also denied doing anything wrong. Mr Walters has yet to comment.
A source familiar with the investigation, quoted by the Reuters news agency, said none of the men had so far been accused of any wrongdoing.
The FBI, along with the Securities and Exchange Commission and federal prosecutors in Manhattan, are said to be looking into trading in two different stocks.
One line of inquiry is focusing on trades in cleaning products company Clorox.
Mr Icahn, a billionaire investor and prominent activist, was mounting a takeover bid for Clorox around the time that Mr Mickelson and Mr Walters placed their trades, the New York Times reports.
Mr Icahn's offer to buy the company caused the value of its stock to rise.
According to reports in several US newspapers, investigators are examining whether Mr Icahn discussed his bid with Mr Walters, and whether Mr Walters relayed that information to Mr Mickelson.
A lawyer for Mr Mickelson, quoted in the Wall Street Journal, said the golfer was not the target of the probe.
The statement from Mr Mickelson, denying wrongdoing, said he could not fully discuss the matter "under the current circumstances".
Practising before a tournament on Saturday, Mr Mickelson made a jovial reference to the investigation in a conversation with fellow US golfer, Robert Garrigus.
"It's been an interesting evening," the Reuters news agency quoted him as saying. "I don't have much to say about it."
After his round, Mr Mickelson confirmed he had been approached by FBI agents and said: "It's not going to change the way I carry myself. Honestly, I've done nothing wrong. I'm not going to walk around any other way."
Mr Mickelson, 43, has won five major championships and is one of the most popular figures in US golf.
Investigators are also reportedly looking into trades that Mr Mickelson and Mr Walters made relating to Dean Foods, the Wall Street Journal reports (pay wall).
The New York Times quotes sources saying federal authorities are looking into trades placed in August 2012 just before the company announced quarterly results.
Those trades appeared to have no connection to Mr Icahn, the newspaper added.

A recent report in Spanish newspaper Sport had suggested that Man Utd's global fan base had fallen because of its couple of barren seasons.
But the Brand Finance report said: "Even if recent reports of fan losses are to be believed, United retains legions of followers in India, South East Asia and China, contributing to a total of over half a billion individuals and the news certainly does not appear to have deterred sponsors."
They point to the club's lucrative shirt sponsorship deal with Chevrolet and "record breaking" kit supply deal with Adidas, which was signed in 2014 and is worth £750m to United over 10 years.
They added that "the huge windfalls that Man Utd can expect, will see both revenues and brand value continue to increase in the coming years".
They also say that the club's brand value has increased by 63% since 2014.

American researchers studying the rings of ancient trees in central Mongolia have discovered that his rise coincided with the mildest, wettest weather in more than 1,000 years.
Grass grew at a rapid rate, providing fodder for his war horses.
Genghis Khan united the Mongol tribes to invade and rule a vast area.
It covered modern-day Korea, China, Russia, eastern Europe, India and south-east Asia.
The research shows that the years before Genghis Khan's rule were characterised by severe drought from 1180 to 1190, the study in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences said.
But as the empire expanded from from 1211 to 1225, Mongolia saw an unusual spell of regular rainfall and mild temperatures.
"The transition from extreme drought to extreme moisture right then strongly suggests that climate played a role in human events," study co-author and West Virginia University tree-ring scientist Amy Hessl told the AFP news agency.
"It wasn't the only thing, but it must have created the ideal conditions for a charismatic leader to emerge out of the chaos, develop an army and concentrate power.
"Where it's arid, unusual moisture creates unusual plant productivity, and that translates into horsepower. Genghis was literally able to ride that wave."
Allied to the good weather, Genghis Khan was able to unite disparate tribes into an efficient military unit that rapidly conquered its neighbours.
For the oldest samples, Ms Hessl and lead author Neil Pederson, a tree-ring scientist at Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, concentrated on an unusual group of stunted Siberian pines found while researching wildfires in Mongolia.
The trees were growing from cracks in an old solid-rock lava flow in the Khangai Mountains, according to a statement from Columbia.
Trees living in such conditions grow more slowly and are particularly sensitive to weather changes - and as a result provide an abundance of data to study, scientists say.
Some of the trees had lived for more than 1,100 years. the experts say, and one piece of wood they found had rings going back to about 650 BC. | Manchester United is the world's most valuable football brand, replacing Bayern Munich, according to a report from consultancy Brand Finance.

Give a brief summary of the following article. | Mr Zuckerberg will give away 99% of his stake in Facebook, worth $45bn (£30bn), to fund the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative.
Rather than set up a simple charity, Mr Zuckerberg formed a limited liability company (LLC) to administer the money.
An LLC brings certain tax exemptions but also allows investment for profit.
Critics have said the structure of the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative could provide a way for the Facebook founder to avoid paying tax on the sale of his shares. They have also questioned why he did not set up a not-for-profit charity instead.
An LLC allows Mr Zuckerberg to keep hold of the voting and allocation of the shares he puts into it.
In a Facebook post on Thursday, Mr Zuckerberg explained his reasons for creating an LLC instead of a not-for-profit organisation and said he and his wife, Priscilla Chan, will pay capital gains taxes when their shares are sold by the company.
"By using an LLC instead of a traditional foundation, we receive no tax benefit from transferring our shares to the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, but we gain flexibility to execute our mission more effectively," he said.
"In fact, if we transferred our shares to a traditional foundation, then we would have received an immediate tax benefit, but by using an LLC we do not.
"And just like everyone else, we will pay capital gains taxes when our shares are sold by the LLC," he added.
The new charitable organisation is aimed at "advancing human potential and promoting equality for all children in the next generation".
Mr Zuckerberg and Ms Chan's shares will be donated over the course of their lives. They have already committed $1.6bn to philanthropic causes according to a Facebook statement.
A spokeswoman said the situation was brought to an end at 18:30 GMT "with no injuries to staff or prisoners."
Maidstone is a Category C men's jail whose prisoners include sex offenders and foreign nationals with more than 18 months left to serve on their sentence.
In a separate incident, a protest by about 60 prisoners at Rye Hill prison in Warwickshire has ended peacefully.
A spokesman for South East Coast Ambulance Service said it was informed about the incident at 16:00 and had sent two vehicles to the prison in a supportive capacity.
The vehicles were "hazardous area response teams".
Kent Fire and Rescue service had been on standby at the scene.
Prison Officers Association vice-chairman Ralph Valerio said staff shortages at Maidstone may have been a factor.
He said: "Prison officers have been warning for some time at HMP Maidstone that because there are less of them available, in order to deliver the regime that the prisoners living in Maidstone prison expect, that there's growing discontent.
"If that information is not taken seriously bad things can happen. Bad things did happen at Maidstone today and ultimately the taxpayer bears the burden."
Andrew Neilson, from the Howard League for Penal Reform, said it could have been linked to a national policy withdrawing some perks from inmates.
He said: "It's certainly notable that we've seen a crackdown on so-called prison perks - the fact that, for example, prisoners wouldn't have access as readily to televisions in their cells, also access to things like gymnasiums."
Jackie Hipwell, landlady of the Swan Inn opposite the prison, said she heard shouting "like a football crowd chanting".
"You occasionally get some disturbances... so we thought that must be what it was, but it usually dies down pretty quickly," she said.
"I could hear shouting from inside the prison. Prisoners from one block were calling to prisoners in another block asking them what was going on."
Earlier reports had suggested that up to 180 inmates were involved.
On the incident in Warwickshire, a Prison Service spokesman said: "There was a passive demonstration at HMP Rye Hill where around 60 offenders refused to return to their cells. This was peacefully resolved within a few hours."
Category C prisons are for inmates who cannot be trusted in open conditions but who are unlikely to try to escape.

Give a concise summary of the following information. | The 27-year-old was given the initial punishment by an International Tennis Federation (ITF) anti-doping tribunal.
Troicki had refused to give a blood sample during the Monte Carlo Masters in April and will be banned until 15 July 2014.
"This decision puts an end to my dreams of being a top player," said Troicki.
The reduced ban means the world number 77 will miss the first three Grand Slams of 2014.
As a result, he will be unable to defend the points he accumulated in the early part of 2013 and is likely to drop down the rankings.
"I have no idea what to do now or where to go," added Troicki, who had called for his suspension to be overturned. "I hope somehow I will be able to fight back."
CAS decided that Troicki was not at "significant fault" despite committing an anti-doping violation, with no suggestion he intended to evade the detection of a banned substance in his system.
The decision comes 11 days after Croatia's Marin Cilic had his nine-month ban reduced to four months.
Cilic, 25, tested positive for banned substance nikethamide in April and returned to action at last week's Paris Masters, where he reached the second round before losing to Argentina's Juan Martin Del Potro.
Governor Rick Snyder of Michigan said he was suspending the acceptance of new arrivals until after a review.
Alabama, Texas and several other states issued similar statements but a State Department spokesman said the legality of this action was still unclear.
President Barack Obama has urged the US to "step up and do its part" to help those fleeing the civil war.
"Slamming the door in their faces would be a betrayal of our values," he said.
"Our nations can welcome refugees who are desperately seeking safety and ensure our own security. We can and must do both."
The governors' decisions come in the wake of the attacks in Paris which killed 129 people on Friday evening.
Seven of the perpetrators died in the attacks, and one of them is thought to have been a Syrian who entered Europe via Greece with migrants.
Millions of Syrians have fled to neighbouring countries and to Europe, and the US has promised to take about 10,000 Syrian refugees in the next 12 months.
While the state of Alabama has not accepted any Syrian refugees so far, the southern state's governor has said that he "will not place Alabamians at even the slightest possible risk of an attack on our people".
In Michigan, where it has been reported that 200 Syrians have been resettled in the past year, Governor Snyder has said he will suspend the acceptance of new refugees until the US Department of Homeland Security "completes a full review of security clearances and procedures".
US State Department lawyers are investigating whether governors can legally block Syrian refugees from being settled in their states.
While the final ruling has not been made, officials say it appears they can't actually block refugees who come into the country through the resettlement program, but they can make it difficult for the non-profit organisations doing the legwork.
A state can tell an NGO handling a file that they don't want to work with them and the NGO would simply go elsewhere. But uneasiness about the vetting process and fear of a similar attack in the US is growing, especially on Capitol Hill.
The decision to suspend the acceptance of refugees has drawn the ire of some working to resettle them.
"It's vital to keep in mind those who are refugees are fleeing persecution," said Michael Mitchell, with the Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service, an organisation working to resettle refugees in the US.
But several Republican presidential candidates have said it would be wrong to accept any more. Business mogul Donald Trump described it as "insane".
The three top Democratic candidates have said they want the US to take more than 10,000 Syrian refugees but only after extensive vetting.

Can you summarize the following content in brief? | Writer Neil Gibbons, who helped write the Norwich DJ's first book and the successful Alan Partridge film, revealed the news on Twitter.
He promised the book, which is due for release in 2016, would include "new Monkey Tennis revelations".
Publishers Orion said the journal would be a collection of diary entries, letters, "think pieces" and programme and business ideas.
Orion announced it had bought a book "by Alan Partridge, which will be written 'with help' from Steve Coogan and Rob and Neil Gibbons".
Twin brother comedy writers Neil and Rob Gibbons started working with Coogan when he brought back his DJ alter-ego in an online Partridge show called Mid Morning Matters in 2011.
They also worked on his first autobiography I, Partridge: We Need to talk about Alan, which was published in 2011 to rave reviews.
"An acutely observed mock-memoir, touching on the great man's highs (receiving a Burton's Gold Card) and lows (Toblerone addiction) in equally self-regarding manner," said the Independent on Sunday when it was published.
And Time Out gave it four stars: "As a parody of celebrity autobiography, it's sound; but as a sustained piece of comic writing, it's outstanding".
Coogan admitted that he decided to write Partridge's life story as a way of getting out of writing his own.
"Publishers asked me to do one, but no-one asked me to do the Alan Partridge autobiography - I suggested it as a sort of deflecting device," he told BBC's Front Row.
Coogan wrote the book in the same way as the hit TV show, with him and the other writers improvising.
But he admitted he did not set out the first Alan Partridge autobiography to be satirical.
"We just wanted to do what he would do in trying to write his autobiography.
"He wants to make his life more than unremarkable, so every single event in his life he tries to spin into something it's not.
"There was an argument between his parents about tax returns that he tries to turn into some kind of nightmare childhood - as if it was torturous for him and he was scarred by it".
Kayleigh Rickell, 31, from Burnholme, York, said her dog Larry got into trouble while out for a walk on Sunday.
The dog was with her dad on Tang Hall field when the ball blocked its airway and it collapsed.
An onlooker called on a police officer who lived nearby and he removed the ball and successfully gave him CPR.
Larry, aged six, described by Mrs Rickell as an "average, greedy, nutty, loving dog", has now recovered.
Describing what happened, Mrs Rickell said: "My dad took him out to the field with a ball, threw the ball to him and he didn't want to drop it.
"So my dad could get him to drop it, he threw him a stick hoping he would grab that instead.
"Silly as he is, he picked up the stick as well as the ball, and the ball became lodged in his throat."
She said Larry "died" on the field and was brought back to life with the help of the police officer.
Mr Hartley then took Larry to the vets where he was given oxygen and was shaken but otherwise unharmed.
Mrs Rickell has posted a thank you message on Facebook to the officer and two female onlookers who helped save Larry's life.
She has now set up a Facebook group called Larry the Lab initiative, to allow people to share stories about incidents where dogs have got into trouble playing with toys or treats and to warn each other of the dangers.

Can you write a brief summary of this passage? | Lee Nolan strangled Katelyn Parker, 24, with her own hair straighteners after she called him "gay" in August 2015.
The Independent Police Complaints Commission has now found "significant failings" in the way police handled previous allegations against Nolan.
Detectives from Greater Manchester and Kent police received official warnings.
The IPCC said Nolan was allowed to "remain at liberty" and went on to kill Ms Parker in Heywood, Greater Manchester, despite two unrelated allegations of rape and one of making threats to kill.
The watchdog found the threats to kill allegation was not progressed by either police force.
There was confusion over which force would investigate the complaint as Kent Police thought Nolan had been in Manchester at the time, but Greater Manchester Police were unaware of this.
Two separate rape allegations were also subject to "severe delays and poor communication", the IPCC ruled.
The detectives were found to have cases to answer for misconduct and were subject to "management action".
In February Nolan was jailed for life and ordered to serve a minimum sentence of 18 years.
Rachel Cerfontyne, deputy chairman of the IPCC, said a "lack of organisation and inadequate communication" meant "grave offences" were not investigated.
"While it is impossible to know the full consequences of this failure, we do know that Nolan remained at liberty and went on to commit murder, albeit unrelated," she said.
"It is essential that forces have protocols in place which ensure effective policing nationwide. I strongly recommend an urgent review of current policies and practices and will be taking this forward with relevant policing bodies."
After all, when you've made blocking a return for the Tories an absolute priority, then where else do you go?
The comments on the weekend by Leanne Wood that Plaid may withhold its support for Ed Miliband if he leads a minority Labour government are a way of trying to deal with that.
At the very least it sends out the message that it can't be taken for granted.
Plaid's problem is it that it doesn't spell out what the alternatives are if it doesn't support Labour.
Unsurprisingly, Labour has been more than happy to try to answer that question by saying it opens the door to a return for the Conservatives, which is explicitly what Plaid has been campaigning against in recent weeks.
Of course all of this only becomes relevant in the event of a hung parliament, which is exactly what the polls are suggesting will happen.
Despite what the Tories say about the NHS being the main doorstep issue and UKIP saying it's immigration, it is who is trusted on the economy that will decide who gets into Number 10.
And when it comes to the economy, a feature of the campaign so far is the striking contrast in the way the parties are describing the situation in Wales.
On opposite ends of the spectrum are David Cameron saying there's a jobs miracle underway while Labour and Plaid paint a picture of thousands of people using food banks, claiming what they call the bedroom tax or are on a zero hours contract.
What's the truth? The Conservatives say the truth lies in the stats and there were plenty thrown at journalists at the launch of their Welsh manifesto on Friday at the Royal Welsh showground in Builth Wells.
The even coincided with the latest unemployment figures, showing 12,000 fewer people unemployed on the quarter.
Behind the scenes I was being urged to make sure those figures were reflected in our news bulletins on the day.
Conservatives are acutely aware of the dangers of this being a vote-less recovery, or as Plaid one described it a "spreadsheet" recovery.
In other words, it's an economic recovery that is not being felt on the ground, which is the central claim of Labour.
The economy is the prism for all of the parties. The Liberal Democrats have for the first time based their entire campaign on the prospect of being a moderating coalition partner which would ensure the economy is not jeopardised by too much, or too little, austerity.
And UKIP claims that the British economy would perform better if it was freed from the shackles of being a member of the EU.
I'm not telling anyone anything new by saying it's down to the economy. How the parties turn it to their advantage? Well that's another matter. | Two detectives have been disciplined after police failed to properly investigate rape allegations against a man who went on to murder a woman.

Give a brief summary of the provided passage. | The MPs fear a post-Brexit government might negotiate a limited free trade deal with the EU, which they say would damage the UK's economy.
There is a pro-Remain majority in the House of Commons of 454 MPs to 147.
A Vote Leave campaign spokesman said MPs will not be able to "defy the will of the electorate" on key issues.
The single market guarantees the free movement of goods, people, services and capital.
The BBC has learned pro-Remain MPs would use their voting power in the House of Commons to protect what they see as the economic benefits of a single market, which gives the UK access to 500 million consumers.
Staying inside the single market would mean Britain would have to keep its borders open to EU workers and continue paying into EU coffers.
Free trade area v single market - what's the difference?
Who has access to the single market?
How does Norway's relationship with the EU work?
Ministers have told the BBC they expect pro-EU MPs to conduct what one called a "reverse Maastricht" process - a reference to the long parliamentary campaign fought by Tory eurosceptic MPs in the 1990s against legislation deepening EU integration.
Like then as now, the Conservative government has a small working majority of just 17.
They say it would be legitimate for MPs to push for the UK to stay in the single market because the Leave campaign has refused to spell out what trading relationship it wants the UK to have with the EU in the future.
As such, a post-Brexit government could not claim it had a popular mandate for a particular model.
One minister said: "This is not fantasy. This is a huge probability.
"The longer we move away from the referendum, the more the economic pressures will grow to keep some links with the single market."
Another said: "We would accept the mandate of the people to leave the EU.
"But everything after that is negotiable and Parliament would have its say. The terms on which we leave are entirely within my remit as a parliamentarian and that is something for me to take a view on."
Labour frontbenchers say they have also been discussing the option.
One said it would be hard for pro-Brexit MPs to resist the Commons deciding Britain's future relationship with the EU, as it would demonstrate the principle of parliamentary sovereignty eurosceptics have been demanding for years.
One SNP frontbencher said: "Parliament is not going to let Boris Johnson and Michael Gove get away with murder. I just don't think people are going to roll over, particularly on our trading relationship with the EU."
Many pro-Leave campaigners support a limited free trade relationship with the EU, based on the deal about to be signed between Canada and the EU.
It would reduce some barriers to trade in basic goods but other areas - such as services - are largely excluded.
One alternative option put forward by pro-EU MPs would be for the UK to stay part of the single market by continuing its membership of the European Economic Area.
The EEA includes all EU countries, as well as Norway, Liechtenstein and Iceland.
The advantages of EEA membership for non-EU countries - known by some as the "Norway model" - include access to the single market without having to agree agriculture or fishing quotas, to cooperate on justice or foreign affairs, or be a member of the eurozone or the Schengen border-free arrangement.
The disadvantages include having to make a contribution to the EU budget, accepting the free movement of people, and having little ability to influence EU rules.
Stephen Kinnock, the Labour MP for Aberavon, said: "If the British people voted to leave the EU that's one thing.
"But can we really say that they voted for the devastation and destruction of the entire exporting sector of our economy? I don't think you can necessarily say that there's a democratic mandate for that."
But he warned there could be a constitutional crisis if MPs voted to keep Britain's borders open, something people would have rejected in the referendum.
"In a sense it's a lose-lose situation. I don't see how you untie that Gordian knot because you're looking at a massive economic crisis going down the track of the Canada model and a constitutional crisis going down the track of the Norway model."
Pro-EU MPs could use their voting muscle later this year when a post-Brexit Tory government would be expected to put its negotiating plans to parliament.
The government would struggle to negotiate with the EU if it could not secure the support of the Commons.
MPs could also bring pressure to bear once the withdrawal agreement has been settled and a huge amount of legislation would have to be changed.
The European Communities Act 1972 that took Britain into the EU would have to be repealed.
New Acts of Parliament would be needed to implement the withdrawal agreement. Acts that implement EU directives would need to be repealed or amended.
Thousands of EU regulations - that were automatically transferred into UK law - would have to be reintroduced, amended or allowed to lapse. And secondary legislation dependent on the European Communities Act would also have to be given new enabling laws.
Ministers say this process could take years and would provide determined pro-EU MPs lots of opportunity to cause trouble.
Charles Grant, director of the pro-EU Centre for European Reform think tank, said: "I think it is quite possible that Parliament would vote to impose the Norway model on a post-Brexit Tory government.
"Boris Johnson and Michael Gove are free marketers down to their finger tips and might be quite happy to be beaten up by Parliament and have this model imposed on them. They might protest but secretly quite like it. The pressure for Britain to retain some linkage with the single market would be overwhelming."
One senior Tory MP said: "There is all this talk of eurosceptics engaging in guerrilla warfare after a vote for Remain. It could be the other way round.
"The overwhelming majority of Labour, SNP, odds and sods and a hard core of Conservative MPs could make life very difficult."
Another said there would be "enormous pressure" from businesses to get "much better access to the single market".
One Labour MP added: "There will be as much fun and games as possible to stop it and block it and delay it."
Another said the government may try to get Labour to support an early general election being called, by voting to suspend the Fixed Term Parliament Act.
A newly-elected Tory government - potentially with a larger majority - would then have a mandate for its renegotiation plan.
Some pro-Leave campaigners also question how pro-EU parliament really is, suggesting that many MPs are backing Remain simply out of loyalty to David Cameron.
A spokesman for the Leave campaign said: "If you vote Leave, Britain will negotiate a British option which will end the supremacy of EU law and take back control of our borders and our democracy and our economy."
A spokesman for the Remain campaign said: "The Leave campaign can't tell us what would happen if we vote to leave. At every point, they have admitted they 'just don't know'. Leaving Europe would be a leap in the dark that would damage our economy, lead to price rises and job cuts. That's why we will be spending the next two and a half weeks campaigning for every vote to protect Britain's future." | Pro-Remain MPs are considering using their Commons majority to keep Britain inside the EU single market if there is a vote for Brexit, the BBC has learned. |
Write a concise summary for the following article. | Wojciech Tomaszewski, 75, from Warsaw, contacted Swansea council's archives team after his own search hit a wall.
After liberation in 1945, his uncle Edmund Tomaszewski moved to Baglan Street in Port Tennant and worked for Skewen's DC William Press Ltd.
But what happened to him after this point remains unknown.
He lost touch with his brother, Wojciech Tomaszewski's father, as communications across the Iron Curtain became increasingly difficult.
"From the very scarce pieces of information I have, I learned that my uncle had a large family in Swansea - one of his daughters was Maria who had two children, Natasha and David," Wojciech Tomaszewski said.
"I have searched on the internet but could find neither a postal nor an email address for any of these relatives of mine.
"The surname is not found in the Swansea phone directory either."
County archivist Kim Collis said: "Records held in the archives tell us Edmund was originally from Warsaw and came to Britain after being liberated by American troops from a long period of wartime imprisonment by the Nazis, including a short spell in the notorious Auschwitz concentration camp, and then a period of service in the free Polish Forces.
"Being unable to return to his native Poland when it fell under communist control, he was officially resettled here and obtained work in a local steelworks.
"It'd be hugely satisfying if someone out there could help us trace any cousins or next generation relatives because it could help reunite two branches of a Polish family that's been split for 70 years."

What is the summary of the given information? | Ultimo revealed Ms Mone left its board and the board of parent group MJM International earlier this month.
Recently, she was appointed by the government to carry out a review into how best to encourage start-ups in areas of high unemployment.
Ultimo said new projects and commitments had left limited time for her engagements with the firm.
Glasgow-born Ms Mone, 43, co-founded the original Ultimo parent company MJM International with her ex-husband Michael in 1996, and created brands including Ultimo Miracle Shapewear and Miss Ultimo.
She sold an 80% stake in the firm last year to Sri Lanka-based lingerie group MAS Holdings in a multi-million pound deal.
In a statement, Ultimo said: "Ultimo wishes Michelle every success in her new personal projects and public engagements, and thanks her for contributions in the past and for her future support of Ultimo's growth."
Ms Mone has a high media profile and has appeared on TV shows as diverse as The Apprentice, Celebrity Masterchef and Surprise Surprise.
She also owns stakes in a tanning firm, a slimming business and works as a motivational speaker.
The light strips are designed to catch the eye of people looking down at their device, and change colour to match traffic signals.
The lure of games and social media has come "at the expense of attention to traffic", said councillor Kees Oskam.
But Dutch road safety group VVN said the idea "rewards bad behaviour".
"It's not a good idea to help mobile phone users look at their phones," said Jose de Jong of VVN, the Dutch Traffic Safety Association.
"We don't want people to use phones when they're dealing with traffic, even when walking around.
"People must always look around them, to check if cars are actually stopping at the red signals."
The lights have been installed on a trial basis at one crossing, close to three schools in Bodegraven.
The company that developed the technology says it hopes to offer the strips to other towns in the future.
Similar pavement lights are being tested in the German city of Augsburg to help so-called "smartphone zombies" navigate level crossings.
The Worcestershire Parkway station would be built close to junction seven of the M5.
The Department of Transport said the business case for the plans show "there might be a positive financial and economic business case".
MP for Worcester Robin Walker said: "It's a big step forward as this has been in the planning for some years."
The station would be built at the intersection of the Cotswold railway line and Birmingham to Bristol main railway line, the council said.
The plans are part of the Worcester Transport Strategy, which requires £200m of investment.
Mr Walker added: "Speaking to people in Worcester, it's clear that they would like this third station as it could be very good for business too."
A spokesman from the Department of Transport said: "Bidders hoping to operate the new Great Western Main Line rail franchise will now need to engage with the council on this scheme and propose how the station could be served, should the council be able to secure funding." | Entrepreneur Michelle Mone has resigned from the board of Ultimo, the lingerie and swimwear firm she founded in 1996.

Summarize the content of the document below. | At 16 weeks pregnant, Margaret Hawkins Boemer discovered her daughter, Lynlee Hope, had a tumour on her spine.
The mass, known as a sacrococcygeal teratoma, was diverting blood from the foetus - raising the risk of fatal heart failure.
Baby Lynlee weighed just 1lb 3oz (0.53kg) when surgeons opened the womb.
Mrs Boemer had originally been expecting twins, but lost one of her babies before the second trimester. She was initially advised to terminate her pregnancy entirely before doctors at Texas Children's Fetal Center suggested the risky surgery.
The tumour and the unborn baby were almost the same size by the time the operation was performed. Lynlee was given a 50% chance of survival.
Mrs Boemer told CNN: "At 23 weeks, the tumour was shutting her heart down and causing her to go into cardiac failure, so it was a choice of allowing the tumour to take over her body or giving her a chance at life.
"It was an easy decision for us: We wanted to give her life."
Doctor Darrell Cass of Texas Children's Fetal Centre was one of the team who carried out the surgery. He said the tumour had been so large that a "huge" incision was required to reach it, leaving the baby "hanging out in the air".
Lynlee's heart virtually stopped during the procedure but a heart specialist kept her alive while most of the tumour was removed, he added. The team then placed her back in her mother's womb and sewed her uterus up.
'Second life' for Indian baby girl left to die
Premature babies' mums want more leave
Mrs Boemer spent the next 12 weeks on bedrest, and Lynlee entered the world for the second time on 6 June. She was born via Caesarean at almost full term, weighing 5Ib and 5oz, and named after both of her grandmothers.
When Lynlee was eight days old, a further operation helped remove the rest of the tumour from her tailbone.
Dr Cass said the baby girl was now home and thriving. "Baby Boemer is still an infant but is doing beautiful," he confirmed.

Please provide a concise summary of the following section. | Mohammad Akhlaq was beaten to death by a mob in Dadri in Uttar Pradesh state in late September.
His son, Mohammed Sartaj, told BBC Hindi's Salman Ravi that he "is waiting for the police to charge the suspects".
Six people have been arrested in connection with the attack.
"We will go to the president of India if we have to. We will also demand an inquiry by the Central Bureau of Investigation [India's top investigative body] if we feel that the Uttar Pradesh police is trying to save those involved in the case," Mr Sartaj, who works for the Indian Air Force, told BBC Hindi's Salman Ravi.
He was responding to reports which said Mr Akhlaq's family had said they were satisfied with the compensation they had received and did not want further investigations.
Mr Sartaj said that the police had already spoken to his family.
"They have also taken statements from eye witnesses. My family has told the police about the people who were involved in the attack. Now we have to see if the police tries to save them [the suspects] or presents evidence against them," he told BBC Hindi.
The slaughter of cows is a sensitive issue in India as the animal is considered sacred by Hindus, who comprise 80% of the country's 1.2bn people.

Can you summarize the following paragraph? | Dozens of volunteers like Jibrila Sesay are playing a central role in the gruesome clear-up operation after Monday morning's disaster.
"We have been collecting corpses and pieces of corpses and bringing them to the mortuary. It does not stop," says Mr Sesay in a break outside the Connaught Hospital mortuary.
The volunteers are shuttled at high speed in police trucks and Red Cross vehicles to and from the devastated Regent area. The operation aims to prevent a health emergency - caused by rotting human remains on the hillside - from compounding the impact of the deadly landslide and floods.
Inside the rundown city centre mortuary, chief pathologist Simeon Owis Koroma is writing his 350th death certificate since Monday.
"There will be more bodies, in smaller numbers in the coming weeks. That's how it is with disasters in Sierra Leone. But we cope. We are lucky because we are prepared," he says, paying tribute to the volunteers like Mr Sesay who were trained in safe burials during the 2014 Ebola epidemic.
Death certificates are completed once a body has been identified. At that point family members can choose to remove the body for a private funeral or, in most cases, given that survivors have lost everything, leave the burial to the government.
Across the road from the mortuary, bereaved relatives stand lined up along the pavement under umbrellas. Many clutch photographs of loved-ones - curled or faded but priceless now.
Sorrie Koroma's daughter was 12. She remains on his phone screen. "I need to see my daughter's body just so my life can continue," he says. He believes his sister died along with her five children and his daughter, who was staying with them for the school holidays.
Everyone here has lost several family members. They were asleep in their beds when the watery mud coursing down Sugar Loaf Mountain dislodged giant rocks. These in turn seem to have gathered incredible velocity and crashed through people's homes. Shacks were flattened, concrete houses suffered the same fate.
During Wednesday, thanks to the tireless efforts of volunteers such as Mr Sesay, the mortuary became overfull. The stench of decomposing bodies pervaded Lightfoot Boston Street.
A decision was taken to bag up body parts and all corpses damaged beyond possible identification. In a new volley of ambulance runs, Mr Sesay and his colleagues began transporting decomposing human remains to a mass grave designated for them at the Ebola cemetery at Waterloo.
By now Mr Sesay seemed inured to his gruesome calling. He was just hungry.
"We have not been given a meal or a drink or even money for transport. At least during Ebola, international organisations took care of the volunteers," he says.

Summarize this article briefly. | Crowds lined the streets to see the cortege heading to the Santa Ifigenia cemetery for a private ceremony.
"There were no speeches. It was very simple," France's representative, Environment Minister Segolene Royal, said afterwards.
On Saturday Fidel's brother, Cuban President Raul Castro, promised "to defend the fatherland and socialism".
In a family ceremony, Fidel Castro's ashes were interred next to those of the 19th Century Cuban independence hero, Jose Marti.
Santiago is known as the birthplace of the Cuban Revolution.
The funeral brings an end to nine days of national mourning across Cuba.
His remains arrived in Saturday in Santiago after a four-day journey from the capital, Havana.
"All of us who love Fidel, who is a father to us. He cleared a path for us and the people will follow him," Tania Maria Jimenez told Reuters news agency.
Fidel Castro was part of the small group of revolutionaries who launched an attack on the Moncada barracks in Santiago on 26 July 1953.
The attacked failed, but it was considered the first act of the revolution that would depose the US-backed government of Fulgencio Batista on 1 January 1959.
Opinion on Fidel Castro, who ruled Cuba as a one-party state for almost half a century, remains divided.
Supporters say he returned Cuba to the people and praise him for some of his social programmes, such as public health and education.
But critics call him a dictator, who led a government that repressed opposition and dissent.
Raul Castro took over when his brother's health deteriorated in 2006.
He has announced that Cuba will ban naming any monuments or roads after Fidel Castro, at the request of the late leader who "strongly opposed any manifestation of cult of personality".

South Yorkshire Police said it was not officially linking them at present but warned drug users to exercise caution.
Temporary Ch Insp Ian Proffitt said the force was trying to establish a possible link to the strength or content of heroin being sold locally.
"For four deaths to occur in similar circumstances in a small time period and in a relatively small geographical area is unusual," he said.
"The public should exercise caution if they come into contact with controlled drugs, particularly heroin, or heroin derivatives.
"If you experience any unusual symptoms after taking drugs, seek medical attention immediately."
Two men, aged 33 and 40, were found dead at separate addresses in Barnsley on Friday morning, while a 47-year-old woman was found dead at a house in the village of Grimethorpe.

However, ahead of Arsenal's visit to Stamford Bridge, Wenger denied having any regrets on letting fellow midfielder Jack Wilshere join Bournemouth on a season long loan.

Mr Ohaegbu, of Chestnut Avenue, who worked at Castle Hill Hospital, is accused of twice filming the second complainant naked, and once under a table at a restaurant, without her consent between July and August 2016.
The court was told, that on 26 September, the teenager was walking along Peel Street after midnight when Mr Ohaegbu tried to kidnap her.
On the opening day of the trial, prosecutor Charlotte Baines said: "These, say the prosecution were the tools, you may conclude, that the defendant had in his vehicle with his intention of committing a sexual offence that night.
"It is the prosecution's case that the defendant has committed a number of offences against both of these females.
"All of them were planned by the defendant, albeit concerning completely separate complainants, and are separated by time, but they have common features, and were offences carried out against their consent, and were motivated by the defendant's sexual gratification."
The jury heard, that when questioned by police officers following his arrest, Mr Ohaegbu said the condoms were from a health centre and the Vaseline was for dry skin because he showered a lot.

Stepanova is in hiding after helping to expose Russian state-sponsored doping.
Wada, which had been alerted that its website had been hacked, found the 800m runner's account had been accessed by someone other than the athlete.
"Wada is in contact with the relevant law enforcement authorities," a statement said.
Wada's Anti-Doping Administration & Management System (ADAMS) allows athletes to enter information about their whereabouts from anywhere in the world to help the agency co-ordinate testing.
"Through regular security monitoring of ADAMS, the agency noted that someone, other than Ms Stepanova, had accessed her account," said the statement.
"A subsequent investigation allowed the agency to determine that no other athlete accounts on ADAMS have been accessed."
Stepanova and her husband Vitaly, a former Russian anti-doping official, are currently living in a secret location following her evidence to Wada's report into Russian doping.

Prince Turki had been convicted by a General Court of murdering his compatriot, Adel bin Suleiman al-Muhaimeed, and sentenced to death, the interior ministry said.
The verdict and sentence were upheld by the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court, and a royal decree was issued to proceed with the execution, it added.
The victim's family refused offers of "blood money" by which they would receive financial compensation in return for not demanding the death sentence, Saudi-owned Al-Arabiya network reported.
The interior ministry said the government was "keen to keep order, stabilise security and bring about justice through implementing the rules prescribed by Allah".
Some Saudis praised King Salman on social media for being "decisive" while others said they were pleased to see that the "law applied to everyone".
Most people executed in Saudi Arabia are convicted for murder and drug trafficking, although nearly 50 people convicted of terrorism offences were put to death on a single day in January, among them the prominent Shia cleric Sheikh Nimr al-Nimr.
Also on Tuesday, another Saudi citizen was executed in the Qatif region of Eastern Province, the interior ministry said in a separate statement. Saad Bin Ahmed al-Shamrani was convicted of abducting and raping a young woman, it added. | A Saudi prince has been executed for shooting a man dead during a mass brawl three years ago outside Riyadh. |
Give a concise summary of the passage below. | Baby and adult ashes were mixed together at the crematorium and given back to relatives of the adult.
The parents of infants were told there were no ashes.
Aberdeen City Council said Pete Leonard had resigned following a period of ill health. The council thanked him for 12 years of service.
BBC Scotland revealed in 2013 that no ashes had been offered to the families of infants cremated in Aberdeen over a five-year period.
It followed similar revelations about Mortonhall crematorium in Edinburgh, which had been secretly burying baby ashes for decades.
A report into the scandal by Dame Elish Angiolini described the practices as "abhorrent".
Peaty, 20, already held the 50m world record time and won European and Commonwealth titles during 2014.
He finished in 57.92 seconds, beating the previous mark of 58.46 set by South Africa's Cameron van der Burgh at the London 2012 Olympics.
"I kind of surprised myself," Peaty told BBC Radio 5 live.
"I was going to wait until Kazan [World Championships] to produce that time and I can't really believe it.
"I just dived in hoping for a 58 really and I have to say a big thank you to my family for supporting me."
Scotland's Ross Murdoch finished second in 59.13 secs with James Wilby third in one minute 0.31 secs.
Murdoch's time is a new Scottish record and automatically qualifies the 21-year-old for the World Championships later this year.
Francesca Halsall, who was a surprise second in the 100m freestyle earlier in the week, claimed a comfortable victory in the 50m event.
England's Commonwealth and European champion secured her 10th British 50m freestyle crown in 24.37 secs, with Lauren Quigley (25.22) second and Rebecca Guy (25.49) third.
"To win 10 titles and be the best in Britain is fantastic," Halsall told BBC Sport.
"My preparation hasn't been great [due to a shoulder injury] but I'm quicker than I was at this time last year, so that's really good."
Scottish Commonwealth gold medallist Dan Wallace defeated England's Roberto Pavoni and Lewis Smith in the 400m individual medley.
However, his time of four minutes 12.78 secs was not quick enough to guarantee him a place in the World Championship team.
"I'm not where I or British Swimming would like me to be in terms of time at the moment," said Wallace.
"However, I usually get stronger as the season goes on, so hopefully the selectors will see that."
Ben Proud added 50m freestyle gold to the 50m butterfly title he won on Thursday.
The Plymouth-based swimmer touched in 21.99, to beat team mate Thomas Fannon (22.48) who was second and third-placed Andrew Weatheritt (22.50).
Sophie Taylor - the Commonwealth 100m breaststroke champion - won the British title in the same event for the second year running.
However, despite touching ahead of Sarah Vasey and Molly Renshaw, she finished in tears after missing out on the time to guarantee her place at the Worlds.
Loughborough-based Rachael Kelly successfully defended her British 100m butterfly title, beating Jemma Lowe and Siobhan-Marie O'Connor.

Write a brief summary of the provided content. | He said the boy's mother, Gabriela Zapata, had five days to show the boy to the authorities.
On Monday, Mr Morales said he wanted to meet his son, after a relative of Ms Zapata said the boy was living in an undisclosed location in Bolivia.
But he has now said he does not believe his son is alive.
"I am totally convinced that this boy has unfortunately died," Mr Morales said in a news conference..
He had a relationship with Ms Zapata between 2005 and 2007, when she got pregnant and the baby was born.
Ms Zapata told him at the time that their baby had fallen ill soon after birth and had died.
"I ask myself why since 2007 did they hide him from me? For what reasons did they distance me?" he said on Monday.
Bolivia's Transparency Minister, Lenny Valdivia, said the mother's account of what has happened since 2007 is full of contradictions.
"She told the president that the baby was born. Then he gave money to help bring him up. It was only when he demanded to see the child, many years ago, that she said the baby had died," said Ms Valdivia.
Ms Zapata, who is in her late 20s, was arrested on Saturday, as part of a corruption investigation.
She worked as a top executive for Chinese building company CAMC.
Last month, Bolivian media reported that in recent years the company had been awarded contracts with the government worth $500m (£360m).
The opposition accused Mr Morales of using his influence to benefit the company because of the connection with his former girlfriend.
Mr Morales rejected the accusations and said they were part of a strategy from right-wing forces to undermine his credibility ahead of a referendum.
He was seeking to change the constitution to allow him to run for a fourth successive term, but the referendum was rejected by 51.3% of voters.
Mr Morales has been in power since 2006 and his current term runs out in 2020.

Write a summary of this document. | While flats have risen by 60% in value over that time period, the average house has only gone up by 34%, it said.
Detached homes have seen the smallest price rise, at 21%.
At the same time the Halifax said the rise in UK house prices in the year to September slowed to 8.6%, from 9% previously.
Between July and September, prices went up by 2% compared with the previous quarter.
On a monthly basis, the Halifax said prices in September dropped by 0.9% compared with August.
As a result the value of the average house or flat in the UK has fallen to £202,859.
Last week, rival lender Nationwide said that house prices rose by just 3.8% in the year to September.
It also said that the gap between prices in London and the rest of the UK had reached a record high.
The relative popularity of flats has fallen over the past decade, according to the Halifax research.
In 2005, 20% of all property sales were flats. Ten years on, that figure has fallen to 17%.
Price rises have therefore been driven by flats in the capital.
"The national increase in flat prices has been led by London where flats account for roughly one in two property sales; substantially higher than for the country as a whole," said Martin Ellis, Halifax's chief economist.
The Rent Smart scheme will require landlords to be trained in their responsibilities and obligations.
Latest Welsh Government figures show fewer than 25% had been granted licences by last week.
Only 25,353 out of a possible 100,000 Welsh landlords are registered.
The Welsh Government wants Rent Smart to help tackle bad landlords who give the private rented sector a bad name.
Housing charity Shelter Cymru said nearly a third of its workload came from private tenancies.
Although it can take only a few minutes to register, the process of completing the licensing takes about eight weeks and many have not even started it.
Back in July, 13,000 landlords had registered with Rent Smart but progress has been slow.
The Rental Landlords Association (RLA) fears fewer people will let out houses, meaning there will be fewer houses to rent and that this will push up the cost.
RENT SMART FACTFILE:
Angela Durrant - who rents out a flat in Cardiff Bay - said she only found out about the Rent Smart changes by chance but is unhappy with the amount of work it involves.
"I've actually chosen to go through a letting agent in order to [register] because I was more concerned I'd miss something out or fall foul of the law," she said.
"I was really annoyed because we've respectfully rented out the property for 10 years and I understand it might be trying to root out rogue landlords but it's not really taking into consideration people who are trying to do a good job with perhaps one or two properties."
The Welsh Government said it would raise overall standards and improve the reputation of private rented housing which had been "damaged by the actions of rogue and even criminal landlords and lettings agents".
A spokesman added: "We hope the scheme will ultimately lead to more investment in Wales by improving its reputation".
Meanwhile, 96% of those who had completed the relevant training said "it will make them a better landlord." | Over the last decade the price of flats has risen much faster than the price of houses, according to research for the Halifax.

Write a short summary of the following excerpt. | Christine Copley, 65, had denied subjecting son Andrew to daily beatings and humiliations as he was growing up in the 1980s and early 1990s.
She locked Andrew and his brother in a cupboard, Exeter Crown Court heard.
Copley, of Laburnum Road, Exeter, who denied six counts of cruelty, would put Andrew in a cold bath to reduce visible bruises, the jury heard.
More on this story and others from Devon
The attacks started when Andrew was aged five or six and carried on until he ran away from home at the age of 14 after his mother attacked him with a bottle.
Copley was arrested after her son made an initial police report about the cruelty in 2014.
The court heard his mother:
The beatings started when the family lived at Hurst Avenue, Exeter and carried on when they moved to homes in Farm Hill, Exwick, and Burnthouse Lane, Exeter, the court was told.
Andrew and his younger brother, who also gave evidence in the trial, were often locked into a dark, dirty under stairs cupboard as punishments and Andrew was sometimes stripped naked and made to stand outside the house.
One of the neighbours said Andrew, now aged in his 30s, was "the saddest little boy I ever saw".
The court heard social services were alerted to the situation at the time by neighbours and friends but prosecutor Lee Bremridge said they gave the "impression they were not really interested".
After Copley was found guilty, Judge Erik Salomonsen told her: "You made your son's life a misery. I am making no promises about your sentence."

Please summarize the document below. | There were doubts in January that the Fermanagh course may not stage the event and this was confirmed on Monday.
The Lough Erne Resort said it was extremely disappointed, adding that the European Tour had decided to "change the venue to a links course".
Tour officials have already visited Portstewart to check its suitability to stage the Irish Open.
In April 2014, it was announced that the 2017 event would be held at Lough Erne and supported financially by the Northern Ireland government.
"During a recent visit to the Lough Erne Resort, I was delighted to meet with the owners and to learn more about their significant investment plans for the golf course and hotel," said Keith Pelley, European Tour Chief Executive, on Monday.
"It is a beautiful facility with an outstanding championship golf course designed by Sir Nick Faldo.
"While the 2017 Irish Open will not be staged at Lough Erne, the European Tour looks forward to working with the new ownership consortium, and I am confident that the Lough Erne Resort will host an event with the European Tour in the future."
The Lough Erne Resort failed to persuade the European Tour to keep the event at the Fermanagh venue.
It added: "Over the last several months, senior tour officials began telling us that European Tour management was considering a 'traditional links course strategy' for future Irish Opens.
"We have remained steadfast in our position not to accept this change from the Tour, and we have spent the last few months trying to work with Tour officials at the highest level to persuade them to keep their commitment to Lough Erne Resort and the region.
"However, despite our willingness to work with the Tour in every way to convince them to maintain their commitment, they have made the decision to change the venue to a traditional links course in 2017."

What is the summary of the given information? | Ealing centre Joe Munro powered over for the opening try midway through the first half but the Reds hit back through Simon Kerrod's score.
Aaron Penberthy and Sam Katz traded penalties in the second period but the Trailfinders were never behind.
Ealing climb back into the play-off zone, while Jersey are in eighth spot.
"It was very frustrating," Jersey skipper James Freeman told BBC Radio Jersey.
"Credit to Ealing, I thought they played well, especially their line-out defence in the first half which kept us out of a few shots that we thought we had."
The visitors were the brighter of the two sides in the early stages and deservedly led 10-0 thanks to Penberthy's drop-goal and Joe Munro's try.
Fly-half Penberthy, facing his former club, dictated a lot of the early play but Jersey were just three points behind at half time thanks to Kerrod's try in the left corner and Sam Katz's superb conversion.
In a scrappy second half Penberthy extended the Trailfinders lead to six points on three occasions but Katz was accurate with the boot at the other end to keep his side in touch.
The Reds looked like they might snatch the win at the death, when they won two penalties and a free-kick at a scrum on the five metre line, but the penalty-try never came and Ealing eventually got the penalty themselves and, with it, took the victory.

Summarize the provided information. | Slovenian world players' union member Dejan Stefanovic told the BBC that Mourinho was "bullying" the German, who has been told to find another club.
The League Managers' Association said the comments were "totally inappropriate".
It added Stefanovic "has apologised to Mr Mourinho".
Schweinsteiger, 32, signed a three-year deal in 2015 and played 31 games last season but has trained alone or with the under-21s since Mourinho took over.
There has been interest in him from both the Premier League and overseas.
In his BBC interview, Stefanovic said: "It is clear bullying. In Slovenia, we would have indicted Mourinho and asked for the highest penalty - three years in prison."
The LMA said he had been speaking "in a personal capacity" and not on behalf of Fifpro, the world players' union.
It added: "Mr Stefanovic has stated that his comments appear to have been misinterpreted."
Fifpro secretary general Theo van Seggelen and Professional Footballers' Association chief executive Gordon Taylor are believed to have worked hard to secure the apology from Stefanovic.
Mourinho, meanwhile, is known to have spoken to Richard Bevan, the chief executive of the LMA, about the comments.
Speaking last week, the Portuguese said: "What is happening is what is happening in every club in the world. The manager decides his squad and chooses a certain number of players to face the season."

What is the brief summary of the provided content? | A bronze statue of Roma Jones and her sister Emma, with their sons Kyan Ishann Jones and Shaye-Jones Amin, will be put up in Centenary Square.
It is part of a three-year project by Turner Prize-winning artist Gillian Wearing and the Ikon gallery to find out what it means to be a family.
A campaign to raise £100,000 to build the statue has started.
The family said: "We feel truly amazed and honoured to be chosen to represent what it means to be a family in Birmingham.
"We feel it highlights that family is an indestructible bond between people that is universal and it doesn't matter how it is made up or what it looks like."
They were chosen from a shortlist of four families by a panel of nine judges.
Stuart Tulloch from the Ikon gallery said it was a "unanimous decision" to select them.
"Their story is compelling and says much about contemporary Birmingham: two mixed-race sisters, both single-parents with happy, lively young boys, who identify themselves strongly with the city of their birth.
"The bronze sculpture will take its place in Centenary Square near statues of kings and industrial pioneers.
"In-so-doing, we draw attention to the everyday and the unsung, a lasting memorial to the people of Birmingham who are the life-blood of our city."
About 64% of teenage girls in the county have had the full vaccine course, down from 80% in 2010.
In England, the average is 90%. Jersey has the highest uptake of the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine with 92%.
Jo's Cervical Cancer Trust, which highlighted the figures, said it was concerned by the low uptake.
According to the trust, the only area lower than Cornwall is Hackney in London.
The programme consists of three injections over a period of six months.
About 78% of girls do have the first of three injections, but the number falls for the remaining two jabs, according to the trust.
NHS Cornwall said the take-up of the vaccine had decreased from 80% of girls between September 2009 and August 2010.
Dr Kerry Bailey, a Consultant in Public Health with Cornwall Council, said: "This jab can protect you against cervical cancer.
"There's very few cancers we can protect ourselves against. That's why we would encourage parents to take their girls in to get the vaccine."
About 900 women die of cervical cancer in England each year, Dr Bailey said.
The vaccine offers 70% protection against HPV, a sexually transmitted infection which causes cervical cancers.
Robert Music, Director of the trust, said: "We are concerned with the large number of girls in Cornwall who are not being vaccinated, a number considerably higher than the rest of England.
"We need to make sure everything is being done to increase uptake as the vaccine could quite simply save lives."
Sandra Cousins who lost her daughter Mercedes Curnow to cervical cancer, said: "We all know teenagers are sexually active at a young age.
"Young people do need to be informed about the correlation between HPV and cervical cancer and that needs to be addressed in schools."
Ellis Moore, 14, from Falmouth, who had the vaccination, said: "Just go and do it. Have this injection. It doesn't hurt.
"It could save your life and prevent you from getting cervical cancer."
According to Cancer Research UK, there are hundreds of different types of HPV and most are harmless.
But the charity said about 13 types of HPV can cause cancer. | Two sisters and their sons have been chosen to be "The Face of Birmingham" for a new piece of public art.

Provide a concise overview of the following information. | Chinese media claimed it was the first time a fraud suspect had been extradited from a European country.
The woman, surnamed Zhang, had been living in Italy for nine years.
China last year launched an extradition project codenamed Operation Fox Hunt to repatriate fraud suspects and corrupt officials who had fled the country.
Ms Zhang is accused of stealing more than 1.4m yuan ($224,000; £147,700) from clients at a firm in the northern province of Hebei between 2000 and 2005.
She fled to Italy in October 2005, and Chinese authorities requested help from their Italian counterparts to capture her.
The Italian police detained her in October last year and she landed back in China on Tuesday under police escort.
China is pressing other countries for help in the hunt for economic fugitives - many of them Communist Party officials accused of stealing state funds, says the BBC's Celia Hatton in Beijing.
Operation Fox Hunt took place between July and December last year, and led to the extradition of 680 accused criminals back to China from 69 places, according to Xinhua state news agency.
Those found guilty of corruption in China can face a death penalty. It is not known what Ms Zhang will be charged with.
China's President Xi Jinping launched a crackdown on corruption when he took office in 2012.
Since then, authorities have not only gone after party officials and civil servants, but also individuals in the private sector.
But a judge has not yet accepted a plea deal for Adel Abdul Bary, 54, that would see him serve 25 years in prison.
He was charged with conspiracy to murder and the use of weapons of mass destruction, among other counts.
More than 200 people were killed when the US embassies in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam were attacked in August 1998.
Bary was extradited from the UK in 2012 along with Mustafa Kamal Mustafa, also known as Abu Hamza.
He pleaded guilty on Friday to several of the lesser of the more than 285 charges against him, including threatening to kill by means of explosive and conspiracy to murder US citizens abroad.
The judge has yet to rule on hundreds of other charges against him, including the murders of each person killed in the attacks and conspiracy to attack US national defence utilities.
On Friday, Bary wiped tears from his eyes and shook his head as he made the plea.
He admitted to using fax machines and phone calls to deliver messages of responsibility for the attacks to the news media, messages which included future threats against Americans.
"I arranged to transmit messages from media personnel to my co-conspirators, al-Zawahiri and Bin Laden,'' he said, reading from a statement.
Judge Lewis Kaplan said he wanted to hear further arguments before the more serious charges could be dropped.
He gave lawyers for both sides one week to submit arguments on why he should accept the deal, which would see Bary sentenced to 25 years, potentially with credit for time served in the UK.
"You can well appreciate why I have questions in my mind," Mr Kaplan said.
Bary would be permitted to withdraw the plea and proceed to trial if the judge rejects the deal.
Prosecutors told the hearing the US Attorney's office felt the plea deal was "appropriate with regard to this defendant and the role he played in a much larger conspiracy", saying he had no direct role in the killings.
Defense lawyer Andrew Patel agreed, saying: "I believe this is a just decision."
Bary was originally set to go on trial in November, alongside two others charged in terrorism cases.
He was arrested in the UK in 1999. The US requested his extradition soon after, alongside radical preacher Abu Hamza and three others accused in a lengthy terrorism indictment.
Councillor Dilwyn Morgan said Bale would be the first person to be granted the honour and plans to pitch the idea to the council.

Summarize the information in the following document. | One thing is for sure - he is the biggest story in Northern Ireland right now.
The BBC broadcaster is splashed across the front pages of Thursday's papers after his salary was revealed.
He could take home as much as £499,999, making him the top-earning presenter at BBC Northern Ireland, and the papers give more than a dozen pages between them to discussing the sum.
The Daily Mirror runs an "exclusive" saying that the north Belfast man has turned down an offer of £1m from a rival commercial broadcaster.
The two-year contract would've allowed him to cut his workload by half but would've doubled his money, the paper reports.
An unnamed friend of the TV and radio presenter tells the paper why he turned it down, saying: "His ambition was always to work for the Beeb and for now it still is.
"But he's not daft - the doors to other opportunities are never closed."
Nolan himself confirms to the News Letter that he has rejected more lucrative offers of work from other companies because the BBC offers a "very special platform".
"I don't want to come across as arrogant but the factual position is I have been offered more money for less work," he says, adding that he won't elaborate on other approaches "because it would break confidences".
In its editorial, the paper says many people will be "outraged" by the size of his salary but plenty of others "will think he is worth it".
"Mr Nolan maddens listeners and viewers as much as he delights them, but the simple fact is that he has transformed that mid-morning Radio Ulster slot and made it one of the most popular shows in the history of the station," it says.
"Mr Nolan is such a colourful personality that when he is off his radio show it loses some of its edge."
Flick through the Belfast Telegraph and you'll find a full five pages, plus two opinion pieces on BBC pay-packets, with much of the focus on Nolan.
Claire McNeilly delves into his background, saying his success has been a "classic rags to riches story".
"Lest we forget, this particular fat cat who got the cream was once an impoverished little kitten," she writes, explaining that the "wee boy from the Shankill" was the "son of a man who earned a pittance working in a factory for 40 years".
And she adds: "Just as Queen aren't really Queen without Freddie, ditto The Nolan Show without Nolan."
That's enough Nolan for now... how about a bit of bonfire controversy instead?
Yes, it's been the hot topic for a few weeks now and it's taken a new twist.
The Irish News leads with a story about residents' anger over a republican pyre being built next to their flats and a children's nursery in the New Lodge in north Belfast.
Sinn Féin councillor JJ Magee says the anti-internment bonfire is "making their lives a misery".
It is a "constant cast-and-mouse game" with the bonfire builders, who he says are an "antisocial element within the community".
The worries come after windows in a block of apartments in south Belfast was cracked by the heat of a loyalist bonfire last week.
And the paper also reports on a meeting of that block's residents and politicians on Wednesday night over who will pay for the damage.
It says Democratic Unionist Party representatives didn't attend, although on MLA Christopher Stalford said he wasn't invited.
Green Party MLA Clare Bailey criticises the party, saying they "need to understand that every person in this building was put at risk."
Think we need a laugh to finish off, so who better to look to for that the the one and only Frank Carson?
The Belfast comic died in 2012 but he lives on through actor Dan Gordon, in his one-man show A Rebel Without A Pause, about the life and jokes of funnyman Frank.
Belfast Telegraph editor Gail Walker went to the Strand Arts Centre in Belfast to see the Gordon in action and she's reckons he's nailed it.
"This will be a classic production," she predicts, telling us that Gordon "never lets the pace drop or the mood darken."
"There could easily have been another 20 minutes of this wonderful Frank Carson reincarnation without exhausting the rapt attention of the audience."

But the 22-year-old, who has already booked his place at July's World Championships in Budapest, now believes he could go below the 26-second mark this summer.
Having given his 100m gold medal away to a fan in the crowd, Peaty said he was saving his 50m medal for his grandmother.

The 11-month old boy's case is due to return to the High Court on Monday after the hospital said it had seen claims of new evidence relating to the potential therapy.
His family said the fight was not over.
Speaking outside the hospital, Charlie's parents, Connie Yates and Chris Gard thanked their supporters and the media for sharing the story of their 11-month-old son worldwide.
The couple both in their 30s and from Bedfont, west London, want to take the baby to a hospital in the US for experimental treatment, but lost a lengthy legal battle after judges ruled in favour of doctors at GOSH.
GOSH doctors argued the therapy would not improve Charlie's quality of life.
Mr Gard said they needed a specialist in Charlie's condition and therefore need to send him to America to "give him the chance he deserves."
Ms Yates added: "We have seven doctors supporting us from all around the world.
"There is up to 10% chance that this treatment may work and that's a chance worth taking.
"He's our son, he's our flesh and blood. We feel that it should be our right as parents to decide to give him a chance at life."
She added: "There is nothing to lose, he deserves a chance."
It comes after GOSH said on Friday it had applied to the High Court for a fresh hearing "in light of claims of new evidence relating to potential treatment for his condition".
Clinicians from the Bambino Gesu paediatric hospital's neurosciences department said tests in mice and patients with a similar, but not the same, genetic condition as Charlie had shown "dramatic clinical improvements".
Charlie inherited the faulty RRM2B gene from his parents, affecting the cells responsible for energy production and respiration and leaving him unable to move or breathe without a ventilator.
Charlie's case will be heard by Mr Justice Francis on Monday at 14:00 BST, according to a High Court listing.

"It's a little bit different, but I did a bit last summer," he added.
"You can never say you enjoy it, but it's all right.
"I'm getting older now so I have to look to move on and see what happens."
The jockey will be working for a fellow former rider in Paul Robson, who had to retire through injury.
He said: "Paul used to ride for Nicky Richards and was a very good jockey in his day, but injuries set him back.
"I'm going to work for him now and it'll be back in Hawick, which will be a big help back home with the parents and family.
"Paul gave me the option to carry on riding, but I thought once that's it, it's it."

A shirt worn by the 39-year-old during his team's Super Bowl win in 2015 has also been found.
Both were found in the possession of an unnamed member of the media, said the National Football League.
"I am happy my jerseys have been recovered and I want to thank all of the law enforcement agencies involved," Brady said.
"I know they worked hard on this case and it is very much appreciated."
Houston police chief Art Acevedo said his officers worked alongside FBI staff to track the shirts to Mexico.
"Our investigators actually developed information from an informant here in Houston that led them to Mexico," he added.
Reports later on Monday named a Mexican newspaper executive who was allegedly in possession of the shirts.
The newspaper's owner, Organizacion Editorial Mexicana, then released a statement saying if the accusations were true, it "strongly condemns" the "regrettable and reprehensible actions he presumably committed".
Brady was named Super Bowl Most Valuable Player for a fourth time as his team came from 25 points down to claim victory at Houston's NRG Stadium.
He said he put the shirt in his bag after the game, but later discovered it had gone missing.
"It's unfortunate because that's a nice piece of memorabilia," he said at the time. "If it shows up on Ebay some day, can you let me know so I can track that down?

Give a brief summary of the content. | Tries from Thomas Waldrom and Will Chudley, either side of Jimmy Gopperth touching down in the corner, gave 2015-16 finalists Chiefs a deserved lead.
After Henry Slade kicked Exeter into a 20-8 lead, the hosts responded, with Dan Robson and Tommy Taylor crossing.
Gopperth kicked the conversions and added a late penalty to ensure victory.
Hooker Taylor, making his Wasps debut, shone throughout and his decisive second-half try, coming from a driving maul, epitomised the hosts' superior strength in the pack in the latter stages.
Chiefs, who begin the season without inured England wing Jack Nowell, had enjoyed three victories over Wasps last term, including a semi-final victory on their way to Twickenham.
An industrious Slade helped them build a half-time lead, but Wasps - who were without eight injured first-team players - were worthy winners by the end.
Cipriani was the headline act at the Ricoh on his return to the club after four years at Sale and two years in Australia, and impressed with his skill with the ball in hand, but it was Gopperth's clinical kicking that secured the opening-weekend win.
Wasps director of rugby Dai Young: "Danny (Cipriani) was a little bit frustrated in the first half, because he didn't have the options.
"But for his first hit-up back in the Wasps jersey, I think he can be pretty pleased. He did pretty well.
"It was certainly a game of two halves. The first half, we were disappointed with our work-rate, and we kicked the ball away far too many times."
Exeter head coach Rob Baxter: "Overall, the way I would look at it is we have put in a pretty good base-line with our first performance.
"The guys needed a really tough game to get the legs and the lungs going. We are up and running now. Of course, I would have liked to have won. Am I hugely disappointed with the performance? No.
"There were a few frustrating elements there, but nothing that we can't put right very quickly."

The council has reviewed the service following a "significant reduction" in users over the past five years.
An option to end the current meals on wheels and direct users to alternative providers was backed by cabinet on Monday.
They include The Food Shed which works in partnership with HMP Parc in Bridgend to deliver freshly cooked meals daily.
The council's meals on wheels service delivers hot meals at home for people who are unable to cook for themselves.
It currently delivers about 45 meals each weekday, compared to an average of 112 in 2012.
Cabinet member for housing, social care and health, Councillor Bronwen Brooks said the fall has been down to a "growing choice of other meal providers" which offer "greater flexibility and choice".
She said the meals on wheels service ran at a financial loss and cost the social services department £50,000 a year.
Cabinet agreed to discontinue the service and direct its customers to alternative options such a The Food Shed.
The Bridgend-based social enterprise has developed a partnership with HMP Parc, which sees the prison produce freshly cooked meals at a cost of £4.75, which includes delivery by drivers employed by The Food Shed.
A report before cabinet said: "From initial discussion with The Food Shed, this organisation is keen to extend its current operation into all areas of the Vale of Glamorgan and currently has capacity to do so."
Ms Brooks said: "Arguably this will be an improvement upon the service we provide as it can operate every day of the week, is open to anyone who wants it, and is freshly prepared.
"For the council it will allow us to protect spending and direct it to some of the more critical areas of adult social care." | Wasps fought back from 12 points down after half-time to celebrate Danny Cipriani's return to the club with a home win over Exeter Chiefs.

Summarize the content provided below. | David Sinclair shook four-month-old Joshua in a "momentary loss of control" at their home in East Kilbride, South Lanarkshire, on 6 December 2012.
The cause of death was only discovered after a case review by medical experts.
Sinclair, 34, was originally charged with murder but pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of culpable homicide.
Jailing him at the High Court in Glasgow, judge Lord Bracadale told Sinclair: "You assaulted your baby son by shaking him, causing the injuries which killed him.
"You must have known at the time you had shaken him, but you did not disclose that. It was only after extensive medical investigations you admitted what you had done.
"Your wife believed in you. She now feels she had been misled by you and can no longer support you."
Lord Bracadale described the effects of Joshua's death as "catastrophic" for all concerned and added: "Nothing can bring Joshua back."
The court previously heard that that on the day the child died, Sinclair and his wife Kirsty had gone swimming with Joshua and then shopping in East Kilbride.
At 17:30 Kirsty Sinclair went out to meet her mother and sister.
Just 11 minutes later she received a phone call from Sinclair, who sounded "shocked". He told her: "Joshua isn't breathing properly, come home right away." He then hung up and dialled 999.
The infant was rushed to Hairmyres Hospital where he died.
Initially the cause of Joshua's death was unascertained, but the case was reviewed by a team of medical experts who discovered evidence of trauma in the eyes and brain which could only have been caused non-accidentally, close to the time of death.
One of the experts, Dr Peter Richards, consultant paediatric neuro-surgeon at John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, said: "This would be compatible with him having suffered a shaking injury involving handling at greater force than encountered in everyday life."
Defending QC, Ian Duguid, told the court that Sinclair was "extremely remorseful" for his actions. | A man who shook and killed his baby son in a fit of rage because he would not feed has been jailed for seven years and three months. |

Ms Alder, from Druids Heath, said two of her children had been told their "polishable" shoes were now suitable, and her Year 11 daughter who is sitting exams and wore trainers had been loaned a pair by the school.
She said she was not given an explanation as to why the shoes were now deemed acceptable.
Ms Alder said the "ridiculous" decision on Tuesday had led to "chaotic" scenes and about 300 children were sent home.
Another parent, whose daughter was sent home but could not attend on Wednesday due to a hospital appointment, said she will be sending her daughter to school in the same shoes regardless of whether they are accepted.
Baverstock Academy would not say how many pupils were sent home on Tuesday and has not commented about why Mrs Alder's children's shoes are now acceptable.

Please summarize the given passage. | The advert shows restaurant signs with messages that have been written for community members over the years.
Although some praised the company for reflecting the lives of local people, others said they shouldn't capitalise on events such as 11 September attacks.
"Did we expect all this? No," said Deborah Wahl, chief marketing officer.
"Good advertising creates emotion," she said.
"We Remember 9 11," reads one sign. Another, saying "Boston Strong" refers to the marathon bombing which killed three people.
Other signs marked wedding anniversaries, birthdays and military staff returning from active duty.
In an official statement, which seemed to contradict Ms Wahl's surprise, McDonald's told Newsbeat: "The powerful Signs commercial has sparked commentary from consumers, and we're happy to see that.
"It is part of our campaign to listen more and have a deeper conversation with our customers, and this ad is achieving that.
"We've seen some strong praise and some negative comments. We expect that, and we welcome it.
The advert, which has a children's choir singing a cover of Fun's Carry On in the background, was aired in the US during the Golden Globes and the NFL playoffs.
An associated Tumblr account explains the back story behind each of the signs in the advert.
For example, one of the signs reads: "Keep jobs in Toledo."
According to Luke Humbard, the owner-operator of this branch in Ohio, loyal customers and local workers are rewarded with discounts.
"[We] make sure to tell them we appreciate them coming to us on their thirty minute lunch breaks.
"What prompted the message was a press conference that signalled a factory line might be moving out of the city of Toledo. This could mean a loss of jobs for the city of Toledo."

Summarize the provided information. | The game appeared to be heading for a goalless conclusion when Conrad Logan kept out Ben Reeves' 76th-minute spot-kick after the Dons substitute had been brought down by Jim McNulty.
But a free-kick from the left deep into time added on from Ed Upson picked out Wootton at the back post and he headed the ball into the top corner of the net.
Logan had earlier denied Nicky Maynard while Dale defender Niall Canavan made a superb block to deny Reeves.
Those chances aside, it was all Rochdale and for all Logan's heroics, Dave Martin in the Dons goal was equally impressive in keeping the home side out.
Martin denied midfielder Matt Lund in the first half and frustrated Donal McDermott with a one-handed save before his best block of the afternoon in the last 10 minutes of the game, a fine stop to divert Ian Henderson's header from point-blank range.
Logan maintained the excellent display of goalkeeping when he kept out Daniel Powell and Kabongo Tshimanga in quick succession while at the other end Calvin Andrew slid a shot wide from close range after a teasing centre from Steven Davies before Wootton settled it in the dying seconds.

Summarize the information in the following section. | The champion of the 2015 series told the Radio Times religion was "incidental" to her and she "struggled" with it being so tied to her identity.
The negative comments she received "shocked" her, she told the magazine.
But she said those people were in the "minority" and most of the UK had reacted to her with "open arms".
Hussain, 32, told Radio Times magazine: "I certainly didn't enter a baking show in the hope of representing anyone.
"Being a Muslim for me was incidental, but from the day the show was launched, I was 'the 30-year-old Muslim' and that became my identity."
She told Radio Times it was difficult to adjust to that "identity" being forced upon her.
"I struggled at the beginning, because I thought: 'Am I the token Muslim?'
"I'd never, in all my years, been labelled like that.
"I heard it constantly, 'Oh, she's the Muslim, she's the Muslim'...
"And I was so shocked by the amount of negative comments I got."
Hussain, a second-generation British Bangladeshi, said she hears and sees "negativity" but that it does not affect her as those sharing such comments are in the minority.
"We are so much more accepting than that: I never realised Britain had such open arms," she said.
Since winning Bake Off, Hussain has appeared in her own series, The Chronicles Of Nadiya.
She is set to launch her new BBC TV show, Nadiya's British Food Adventure, on 17 July and will release a book of the same name alongside it.

What is the summary of the provided article? | Zdenek Makar, from the Czech Republic, died from head injuries near All Saints DLR station in Poplar on Wednesday night.
The 29-year-old was charged on Sunday and will appear before Thames magistrates on Monday.
Two others arrested, aged 19 and 16, were released on bail until early October pending police inquiries.
Those were the words of the First Minister Carwyn Jones at his monthly news conference in the autumn.
It would seem then that there's an inevitability about local government re-organisation.
Paul Williams, the former chief executive of the NHS in Wales, is due to publish the conclusion of his review into public services next week.
It's widely expected to fire the starting gun on local government re-organisation.
Within it will be his thoughts, and those of his commission members, on what should happen to the 22 unitary authorities that were created after the last round of changes in 1996.
The big criticism is that there are too many councils and some are too small. There are mismatches. Cardiff for example has a population of around a third of a million, while Merthyr has a population of around 50,000.
A number of negative stories about council chief executive pay levels have all contributed to the debate, and added to the calls to reduce the overheads of 22 separate senior management teams.
In time, that could free up money to go to frontline services but in the meantime there will be a big bill to pay for the changes.
I'd expect one of the first battlegrounds to be around the cost. The consultants Deloitte has looked at the cost of a number of previous re-organisations around the UK and the average cost was above £250m.
Much will be taken up with the cost of redundancies.
In its submission, the Welsh Local Government Association says that when the NHS in Wales was restructured in 2009, senior managers who were moved to lower-banded positions had their salaries protected for ten years.
It says: "Clearly there would be an expectation from the local government workforce and trade unions of fairness in these areas."
The other big costs will be IT. Since the 1990's councils have invested hugely in diverse IT systems in areas like payroll and council tax and all of these will have be connected with other systems.
There will also have to be job evaluations carried out of every staff member so new HR departments can work out how much everyone should be paid.
Critics will question whether now is the right time to carry out such big changes when councils are already facing some of the biggest cuts in years.
And are bigger councils better? The WLGA says there needs to be a compelling argument for change.
It admits that five of the local education authorities in special measures belong to some of the smallest councils but concludes that overall there's no obvious correlation between population size and performance. It says factors like leadership and deprivation have as much, if not greater influence over relative performance.
Another question is how to harmonise council tax rates. If, for example, Pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire were to come together to form a new authority then the council tax payers in Pembrokeshire could face paying more as their bills are currently more than £200 a year less than in Carmarthenshire.
And finally there could be political difficulties for Labour. If there's a dramatic reduction in the number of councillors in Wales, particularly in the south Wales valleys, then many of them will be Labour members who act as grassroots campaigners at the general and assembly elections.

Prime Minister David Cameron has apologised to the thousands of people infected with Hepatitis C and HIV.
It followed the publication of the Penrose Inquiry, which found little could have been done differently.
At the inquiry's news conference, shouts of "whitewash" could be heard from the public gallery.
Hundreds of those affected were in Scotland, which was the only part of the UK to hold an inquiry.
The findings of the 1,800-page report were presented at the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh following a six-year wait.
The inquiry's single recommendation was that steps should be taken to offer blood tests to anyone in Scotland who had a blood transfusion before 1991 and who has not already been tested for Hepatitis C.
Bruce Norville contracted the disease after being infected with contaminated blood. He said: "Today's report is £12m worth of nonsense.
"It doesn't match the evidence that was given to the inquiry. It seems disjointed, broken and nonsensical in significant places.
He added: "Hepatitis C has robbed me of the ability to maintain employment.
"It is a very difficult, hard existence."
Health Secretary Shona Robison has also apologised on behalf of the NHS and the Scottish government and has accepted the findings of the report.
Mr Norville said: "An apology does not accept responsibility. It would mean far more if it was involved with realistic support and compensation for victims."
He and other victims and relatives have called for a UK-wide inquiry on the back of today's findings.
William Murphy from Liverpool died in 1994, aged 59, after he contracted Hepatitis C through infected blood products.
His son Gregory said: "After 30 years, we are still nowhere near reaching the truth in our fight. Why are we still waiting for justice?
He added: "We will not rest until the truth emerges."
Paul Golding, who has stepped down as head of the group, admitted contempt of court and was jailed for eight weeks.
The injunction, which stopped him entering any mosque in England and Wales, was imposed in August.
But nine days later he drove four Britain First members to Cardiff's Al-Manar Centre for a "mosque invasion".
The injunction also banned him from encouraging others to enter a mosque.
Golding, 34, stayed outside and there was no violence but there was a verbal confrontation between his four colleagues and a mosque trustee.
James Weston, counsel for the Chief Constable of Bedfordshire Police who brought the committal application, said mosque members found the conduct provocative and unnerving and were concerned it could have escalated if prayers had not been over.
Judge Moloney said the breach was a "deliberate and cynical defiance" of the court's order as well as an affront to the Muslim community not merely in Cardiff but throughout the country where Britain First might circulate its propaganda.
Golding, was a former BNP councillor in Swanley, south-east London, who ran as Britain First's candidate in this year's mayoral elections.

Leeds City Council approved initial proposals for adventure company Go Ape to build a site in Roundhay Park.
A £3.1m package to improve other tourist attractions was also approved.
Upgrades will be made to Roundhay's Tropical World, the bird centre at Lotherton Hall and Temple Newsam's Home Farm.
A council survey of 450 people at Roundhay Park found 81% would attend a Go Ape attraction if it opened.
Speaking at the executive committee meeting, Labour councillor Lucinda Yeadon said it was still "early days" and the plans were yet to go through the planning process.
Wildlife attraction Tropical World will see a redesign where the site will be split into different zones, including an Oriental-style butterfly house and a nocturnal 'dark mine'.
The council said Lotherton Hall's bird garden will be upgraded to house a "much more diverse collection of animals, including penguins".
Home Farm will gain a new indoor play facility under the plans.
Go Ape operates 29 sites across the UK, employing 800 staff during its peak months.
The charity took the decision after footage emerged of the man apparently trying to attract a protected hen harrier with a decoy bird.
The trust said it no longer had confidence tenant Mark Osborne was committed to its "vision" for the land.
The Moorland Association expressed its "sadness" over the trust's decision.
The National Trust added the termination does not amount to a complete ban on grouse shooting on its land, and confirmed Mr Osborne was not the man seen in the footage.
Updates on this story and more from Derbyshire
The footage was captured by birdwatchers, who happened to be in the area, with a digiscope about a kilometre away.
In February, two keepers were interviewed by the police in connection with an alleged incident involving a game keeper and a hen harrier decoy, but no charges were pressed.
The trust told the BBC that it terminated the shooting leases at Hope Woodlands and Park Hall, in the High Peak area of the Peak District, as a result of this incident.
The termination will come into effect from April 2018 - four years early.
The BBC has made several attempts to contact Mr Osborne, but has so far not received a response.
Andy Beer, of the National Trust, said: "We have given the tenant 22 months' notice and will start the process of looking for a replacement in 2017."
Robert Benson, chairman of the Moorland Association - who support grouse shooting - said they were "very sad" the lease was terminated early.
"We are, however, delighted that the National Trust has recognised the importance of grouse shooting and of putting in place a new shooting tenant in order to deliver this," he said.
According to the RSPB, hen harriers are the most "intensively persecuted" birds of prey in the UK and its predation of grouse is a source of conflict on moors used for shooting.
In 2015, five male hen harriers disappeared from sites across England leading to the collapse of nests.

Give a brief summary of the following article. | It marks the biggest cable audience for a non-sports programme in the US, according to television viewing figures tracking company Nielsen.
The post-apocalyptic horror, which stars British actor Andrew Lincoln, held the previous record of 16.1m for its fourth season debut last year.
The end of the series also set a new benchmark for a finale with 15.7m.
Sunday's return to the air also triumphed in the valuable 18-49 age range with 11 million viewers. Its nearest scripted rival was popular comedy The Big Bang Theory, which pulled in 6.9 million people in that key demographic.
The serial, which is shown on AMC in the US, is screened on Fox TV in the UK.
Variety reported that the show also reached record levels for the number of people obtaining the show illegally, with piracy tracking firm Excipio logging 1.27 million downloads in the first 24 hours after transmission.
But the level of piracy for TV series Game of Thrones pushes The Walking Dead into second place, with its fourth series premiere registering 1.86 million illicit downloads.
It added that Fox has rushed the show to some 125 markets around the world in a bid to thwart piracy.
The hit show tracks the fortunes of sheriff Rick Grimes - played by Andrew Lincoln - as he attempts to survive flesh-eating zombies.
It has also featured fellow British actor David Morrissey as The Governor, who wears a trademark eye-patch.
The latest episode "ripped up the TV rulebook", according to a review in The Guardian.
It was called a "humdinger of an opening episode", constituting a "mini-action movie".
Peter Rabbit and Jemima Puddleduck feature in McGarry's "Beatrixpotting" line-up.
Walking Dead's Charlie Adlard and Hellboy collaborator Duncan Fegredo have also taken part.

Fegredo has depicted Peter Rabbit as a spaceman, standing in a secret launch pad hidden in the Lake District.
"My aim was to retain the innocence and appeal of Potter's Peter Rabbit, setting him against a dramatic landscape and secret launching pad inspired by The Lakes," Fegredo said.
The artists have contributed their works to the Lakes International Comic Art Festival in support of the Beatrix Potter Reimagined student art competition.
The contest encouraged students to give Beatrix Potter a modern or unusual twist and create new work in a comic style.
Writer and illustrator Hannah Berry has created a traditional comic strip which depicts Peter Rabbit story as a criminal who steals vegetables.
Festival Director Julie Tait described the entries as "simply stunning".
"The creativity, skill and humour of the student artwork is just astonishing and to top it all we now have contributions from some of the most talented comic artists on the planet," she said.
"Our festival is not only a celebration of the best of comic art, it's also about encouraging the next generation of artists to explore their creative talents."
Students Ian Morris and Ian Fulcher have submitted their own works to the competition - which will see prizes given to the top three entries.
Morris's piece sees Peter Rabbit and Benjamin Bunny snub vegetables in favour of playing a games console.

What is the summary of the provided article? | Men who cannot afford more than one wife are the catalyst for these reforms.
The Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi, suggested that polygamy among the poor was linked to the rise of the Islamist militant group Boko Haram, which has been behind a violent insurgency in north-eastern Nigeria.
But it has managed to find recruits from all over the mainly Muslim north of the country.
"Those of us in the north have all seen the economic consequences of men who are not capable of maintaining one wife, marrying four," the Emir said over the weekend.
"They end up producing 20 children, not educating them, leaving them on the streets, and they end up as thugs and terrorists."
It was a brave statement that anyone who has visited the north will find hard to deny.
In many northern towns and cities groups of small children, known as "almajiris", crowd around cars stuck in traffic, begging for small change.
Marrying multiple wives is a lot less common among educated people in Nigeria but polygamy still happens in rural areas, especially in the Muslim north.
It is legal. Though the official marriage registry only allows for one wife, it also has a clause that allows for marriage under "customary" law. These rules will differ depending on the community.
One man from central Niger state, who died last month, famously had at least 86 wives and at least 170 children.
But according to Islamic law, a man is not allowed to have more than four wives at the same time. It also states that a man should treat his wives fairly and equally - otherwise, he should remain in a monogamous marriage.
The Emir was not clear on where he gleaned his research but a study published by the Royal Society scientific journal in 2012 said that polygamous societies were more prone to war, rape and theft.
The cause was not an abundance of uneducated children but a surplus of poor, young men with no prospects of marriage.
The proposal has been submitted to a council of Islamic scholars for "validation" and then it will be presented to the Kano state legislature in two weeks' time.
If passed it will be enforced through the Islamic family courts.
Kano is one of several northern states that have introduced Sharia after the end of military rule in 1999 - and the Islamic courts operate alongside secular courts.
In Kano most cases of family law are decided through Islamic courts.
But the problem is that many marriages in Nigeria are not registered with the government or the courts.
It would only apply in Kano state, but the Emir has a lot of influence and the law could be adopted in other Sharia states.
The bill is part of a series of reforms Muhammad Sanusi hopes to introduce as part of his mission to modernise the north, which has higher levels of poverty and illiteracy than the south.
The bill also deals with other marriage rights, education and inheritance.
It would see a ban on domestic violence - giving women the option to seek compensation for any bodily harm and the right to divorce if they can prove domestic abuse.
Domestic violence is already illegal in Nigeria but, as family lawyer Ik Nwabufo says, "human elements" get in the way of those laws being enforced.
From the police station to the courtroom it is a male-dominated system and many of these cases will be dropped along the way.
"What the Emir is trying to do is to close the loopholes," says Mr Nwabufo.
"He is trying to make the Sharia courts stricter on these issues and to make these laws more relevant to religion and culture."
The law would also prohibit forced marriage, meaning a woman would have to give her consent before a marriage is legal.
Though there are exceptions - if a woman's father can prove with medical records that she is mentally disabled, he would have the right to decide her marriage for her.
But as educational attainment and literacy levels in the north are also woefully low - especially for girls - it is unlikely that many women will be aware of these rights even if they are enshrined in law.
The Emir does have four wives himself and has been quick to say there is nothing wrong with polygamy if the status of each wife is equal and the husband can afford to maintain all of his wives and children.
But he seems to be on a mission to modernise Kano where he came to the throne in 2014.
Before his royal career he was a well-known public figure - a banker, politician and businessman with a reputation as a reformer.
He was head of the Central Bank of Nigeria during the presidency of Goodluck Jonathan, when he blew the whistle on wide-scale corruption in the oil industry. He was fired from that job for speaking out.
Last week in a speech at the conferring of teachers in his state, he suggested that mosques in the north be converted into schools.
He publicly criticised the failure of education in the north and pointed to similar successful schemes in Morocco.
But challenging the practices that have reigned in the north for centuries will be an uphill battle. | Polygamy is widely accepted all over Nigeria but one of the country's most prominent Muslim leaders is trying to ban the practice - in some cases. |
What is the summary of the following article? | Honda has decided to change the engine in Stoffel Vandoorne's car on the first day of the final test in Spain after finding an electrical problem.
It is the latest in a series of problems with Honda's newly redesigned engine after Honda used at least five in last week's first pre-season test.
Vandoorne ended the morning eighth fastest, 2.972 seconds off the pace.
A Honda spokeswoman said: "In the interests of maximising lap time, we sped to replace the power-unit and investigate the issue further once it is out of the car.
"The PU we are using is the same specification as the one run at the test last week."
Follow live text commentary on the first day of the final pre-season test
Honda has said it has an upgraded engine that it is planning to use for the first race of the season in Australia on 24-26 March. That latest specification is expected to run at some point this week at the Circuit de Catalunya-Barcelona.
The quickest lap of the morning was set by Williams driver Felipe Massa on the super-soft tyres, 0.174secs quicker than Daniel Ricciardo's Red Bull, using the ultra-soft tyre.
The soft tyre is calculated by Pirelli to be 0.8secs a lap slower than the super-soft.
Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton was third fastest, 0.556secs behind Ricciardo and also on the soft tyre.
Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel was fourth quickest, 0.671secs behind Hamilton but using the medium tyre which is said to be 1.3-1.4secs slower than the soft.
It is impossible to directly compare the lap times even taking into account the tyre off-sets because the teams do not reveal the fuel loads in the cars or the specification in which they are running, both of which can make significant differences to lap time.
Police said children fled from the park in Dover Street, off the Shankill Road, on Thursday and reported that a man was brandishing a shotgun.

Summarize the following piece. | The deal followed talks between the EU and Norway.
It was agreed that the total allowable catch (TAC) for cod can increase by 15% and North Sea herring by 16%.
Haddock catches have been given a 30% boost with an extra 17% for vessels affected by the discard ban, taking the total increase to 47%.
Scottish Fisheries Secretary Richard Lochhead said: "These significant increases for both haddock and cod, in line with scientific advice, are good news for the fishing industry.
"Following a year which saw landings up by nearly a fifth and revenues worth over £500m these increases in quota mean fishermen can further boost catch and profits and could be worth over £15m.
"This will also help the fleet manage the discard ban, which will stop dead haddock being thrown back into the sea, which will in turn improve the stocks of fish."
Conservative MEP for Scotland Ian Duncan said decisions for every species have yet to be taken, but he voiced his delight with the outcome reached on Friday.
He said: "Let me be clear, on the whole this is a fantastic result for the Scottish fishing industry and I pay tribute to them and all the hard work and pain they have endured over the last decade or so to be in a position today that sees cod TAC increase by 15% to 27,930 tonnes in EU waters.
"Considering where we were not that long ago, this in itself would be incredible.
"But the news for haddock; an increase of almost 50% and north sea herring; an increase of 16% on top of the cod figures leaves the industry in very good heart this evening."
Bertie Armstrong, chief executive of the Scottish Fishermen's Federation, said: "This agreement reflects the healthy nature of our stocks and will bring some welcome relief to our hardworking fishermen who are committed to a sustainable future.
"Challenges remain, and while the quota uplift for haddock and other stocks to cope with the discard ban will be welcomed, only time and a great deal of effort from fisheries managers, the Scottish fleet and the supply chain as whole will help ensure the discard ban scheme works when it is phased in from 1 January 2016."

Please summarize the document below. | What was surprising, however, was how few candidates tried to lay a hand on front-runner Donald Trump.
There was plenty of heat in this fifth Republican debate, but very little of it involved the New York businessman who claims leads in almost every recent presidential preference poll.
Here's how the night's biggest battles shaped up - and the winners and losers. But before we get to that, let's talk about the fight that didn't happen.
It seems stunning that just over a week ago Mr Trump made international headlines with his call to close the US border to all Muslim immigrants and visitors.
Although the subject was raised early on, and Mr Trump stood by his position, it received only tepid condemnation.
"This is not a serious proposal," former Florida Governor Jeb Bush said.
Senators Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz both added that they could understand why some Americans support Mr Trump's idea.
And that, essentially, was that.
The topic didn't come up again, and it seemed Mr Trump's opponents were more outraged by his views on "closing off" part of the internet to deter the so-called Islamic State, which Senator Rand Paul said ran counter to First Amendment free speech rights.
Winner: Mr Trump, of course. With his fellow candidates dancing around the proposed ban, the New York businessman paid no political price for his views. His supporters largely love him for taking what they see as a bold stance, but the party as a whole could end up losing as it becomes associated with a policy that is opposed by a majority of Americans.
Mr Bush was the only candidate who tried a head-on charge against Mr Trump, although the exchanges often sounded more like childish squabbles than serious differences of opinions.
"I know you're trying to build up your energy, Jeb, but it's not working very well," Mr Trump said.
"You're not going to be able to insult your way to the presidency," Mr Bush retorted. "Leadership is not about attacking people and disparaging people."
Mr Trump shot back with a quip about Mr Bush's poll standings and how he was slowly moving farther and farther from the centre of the stage.
"I know you are, but what am I" was the only rhetorical device seemingly left in the bag.
Winner: Mr Bush definitely baited Mr Trump into losing his temper, and the former governor held his own in the ensuing exchanges. "A little taste of your own medicine," Mr Bush said at one point. If this fight had come a few months earlier, Mr Bush might have more of a pulse in this race. As it is, however, he was the winner - but with a victory that will likely prove hollow.
One expected fight that did materialise was between the two first-year senators who are increasingly being seen as the men most likely to eventually surpass Mr Trump.
Mr Cruz and Mr Rubio clashed throughout the evening, each trying to fight on terrain they view as more advantageous.
Mr Rubio struck first, criticising Mr Cruz for voting to curtail US surveillance powers.
"The next time there is attack on this country, the first thing people are going to want to know is, why didn't we know about it and why didn't we stop it?" Rubio said. "And the answer better not be because we didn't have access to records or information that would have allowed us to identify these killers before they attacked."
When the topic turned to immigration, however, it was Mr Cruz who went on the offensive, accusing Mr Rubio of backing amnesty for undocumented immigrants in the US.
"There was a time for choosing," Mr Cruz said. "Where there was a battle over amnesty, some chose, like Senator Rubio, to stand with Barack Obama and [Democratic Senator] Chuck Schumer and support a massive amnesty plan."
Winner: Both senators are gifted debaters and held their own. If Mr Cruz edged ahead in the exchanges, it was only because the next person to speak in both case was someone more closely aligned with the Texas senator's positions - Senator Rand Paul on surveillance and Mr Trump on immigration. They had the last word, and it was to Mr Rubio's detriment.
One of the more interesting fights of the evening came between New Jersey Governor Chris Christie and Mr Paul, representing the hawkish and non-interventionist wings of their party respectively.
When the topic of US involvement in Syria came up, Mr Christie - brandishing his tough-talking credentials - took an aggressive position on enforcing a no-fly zone in Syria, even when it came to Russia.
"We would shoot down the planes of Russian pilots if in fact they were stupid enough to think that this president was the same feckless weakling that the president we have in the Oval Office is right now," he said.
Mr Paul responded that if Americans wanted someone who would start World War III, "you have your candidate".
"What we want in a leader is someone with judgement, not someone who is so reckless," he said.
Winner: Although Mr Paul has recently been more outspoken in calling for foreign policy restraint, Mr Christie's views likely jibe more closely to Republican primary voters. The exchange gave him a chance to boast that, as a governor and former prosecutor, he was a man of action - unlike his senate counterparts, who are all talk. Advantage, Mr Christie. | Coming just over a week after the shootings in San Bernardino and a month after the Paris attacks, it was no surprise that Tuesday night's Republican debate was focused almost entirely on foreign policy. |

Cyprus Airways, the national carrier, shut down suddenly on Friday after the EU Commission said the Cypriot government had breached subsidy rules.
The planes belong to a leasing company.
There had been speculation in newspaper reports on Tuesday that the jets were being 'hidden' in the UK to avoid claims from EU officials or creditors.
Cardiff Aviation says after maintenance the planes are expected to fly for a new airline under different livery.
"It's good business for us," said Cardiff Aviation's managing director Ray Raoufi.
"They will go into our hanger when we have a slot for them and they will have maintenance," he said.
"It's an opportunity for the local economy and will help to create jobs," said Mr Raoufi.

Summarize the provided section. | Seven books were chosen from 210 nominations including writing from the journalist who died in Syria last year.
The prize is awarded annually to the book that comes closest to George Orwell's ambition "to make political writing into an art".
Prize director Jean Seaton said they were looking for "writing that was measured and calm not simply angry".
Colvin's book, On the Front Line, was published in April last year, two months after she died in the besieged Syrian city of Homs.
Originally from New York, Colvin was a distinguished foreign correspondent for the Sunday Times and had been based in London for many years.
Palestinian lawyer and writer Raja Shehadeh, won The Orwell Prize for Books in 2008 with Palestinian Walks, was also shortlisted.
Other authors that made the list include former Bishop of Edinburgh, Richard Holloway, for his memoir, Leaving Alexandria, Indian novelist Pankaj Mishra's From the Ruins of the Empire and British lawyer Clive Stafford Smith's Injustice.
The panel included Baroness Joan Bakewell, author Nikita Lalwani and the assistant books editor of The Independent, Arifa Akbar.
"This year's judges started from Orwell's injunction, 'My starting point is always a feeling of partisanship, a sense of injustice'," said Seaton.
Six journalists were also shortlisted for for the Orwell Journalism Prize including two writers from The Independent, Christina Patterson and Kim Sengupta.
Both categories attract a £3,000 prize, which will be handed out at an awards ceremony in London on 15 May. | Journalist Marie Colvin has been given a posthumous nomination for this year's Orwell Prize for political writing. |
What is the summary of the provided article? | The Met Office has issued a yellow "be aware" warning for Monday and Tuesday. Ferry operator CalMac said 17 of its 26 services have been disrupted.
Southerly gales with gusts reaching speeds of up to 50mph and heavy rain have been forecast.
Winds gusting up to 70mph could affect the Irish Sea with large waves on the west coast, the Met Office said.
The warning said: "An unseasonably windy spell is likely across many parts of the UK later on Monday, overnight and well into Tuesday, as active frontal systems sweep across the UK.
"Given the unseasonable nature of the winds, the public should be aware of the potential for disruption to transport and outdoor activities. Damage to some trees seems likely."

Please summarize the given passage. | The Markit/CIPS purchasing managers' index (PMI) for services rose to 55.8, its highest level for four months.
It has now been above the 50 level that marks the divide between growth and contraction for nine months in a row.
However, Markit said prices charged by service sector firms rose at their fastest rate since July 2008.
The services sector accounts for about three-quarters of the UK economy.
Markit said the strong performance from the dominant sector, together with similarly upbeat surveys for construction and manufacturing, suggests the economy is currently growing at twice the pace than that seen in the first quarter of the year.
"The three surveys collectively point to GDP growing at a rate of 0.6% at the start of the second quarter," said IHS Markit economist Chris Williamson.
However, he warned that rising inflation was likely to eventually curb growth.
The UK economy grew by 0.3% in the first three months of the year, according to the initial estimate from the Office for National Statistics, the slowest growth rate since the first quarter of 2016.
The weak growth rate was largely blamed on the impact of rising prices on household spending.
Inflation has been accelerating in recent months, partly as a result of the fall in the pound after the Brexit vote, which has raised the prices of imported goods.
The inflation rate was 2.3% in March, unchanged from February, but above the Bank of England's target of 2% and the highest rate since September 2013.
Beavers could one day return to the Cairngorms where they are thought to have been hunted to extinction in the 16th or 17th centuries.
The Cairngorms National Park Authority (CNPA) said exploring the idea further depends on the results of a trial reintroduction at Knapdale in Argyll.
But beavers are just one animal on a list of 22 creatures assessed for potential reintroduction, or targeted conservation efforts, to Britain's largest national park.
Wildlife on the list were either were wiped out because of over-hunting or persecution, or are now rarely seen because of habitat loss.
They include rare birds such as nightjar and crested tit, but also brown bears, elk, reindeer and even an animal that is globally extinct.
Aurochs, ancient giant European wild cattle, died out almost 400 years ago.
It features on the list to highlight the role free-roaming cattle can play in ecosystems.
In his report published in February on the potential restoration of the 22 species, CNPA's ecological advisor Dr David Hetherington noted the use of cattle at Belgian, Danish and Dutch nature reserves.
Highland cattle also graze woodland managed by Forestry Commission Scotland.
The scientist also looked at the pros and cons of bears, wolves and lynx.
He described them as "highly charismatic species" with the potential to draw tourists.
However, Dr Hetherington concluded that reintroducing bears and wolves was unlikely because of the concerns they would raise about public safety and attacks on livestock.
Lynx were seen as a less of a threat.
On the big cats, the ecologist said: "Of the three species, wolves and bears are often perceived as dangerous and do have the potential to harm humans, although the risk is small.
"In regions of Europe where all three species occur, the lynx is seen as the least damaging to livestock interests and is generally not perceived as a threat to human safety.

"Indeed unprovoked attacks on humans have not been recorded while predation on livestock has been shown to be controllable."
Dr Hetherington suggests that the Cairngorms may have been the last stronghold of Scotland's native lynx.
They could have survived in the mountainous area's forests, one of the last places in Scotland to suffer deforestation, into the late Middle Ages.
But for now the beaver is the mammal with the greatest potential of returning to former haunts in the Cairngorms. | Activity in the UK's service sector accelerated in April, with new work growing at its fastest pace this year, according to a closely-watched survey.

What is the summary of the following article? | The Department for Culture, Arts and Leisure (DCAL) awarded Féile an Phobail a total of £550,000, through a 'cultural programme' fund.
Some of that cash was then distributed by the festival to other arts groups.
Some MLAs and arts workers have raised concerns about what they have said is a lack of transparency in the process.
But the Culture Minister Carál Ní Chuilín said all of the money had been subject to extensive "due diligence."
Féile an Phobail, also known as the West Belfast Festival, is the biggest festival in Northern Ireland.
The 'cultural programme' fund was set up in 2013 by DCAL to provide money for organisations to run events alongside the World Police and Fire Games that took place in Belfast.
Féile an Phobail was given £254,000, while two other organisations also got money.
In 2014, DCAL ran another 'cultural programme', giving £350,000 directly to Féile an Phobail, with £200,000 of that for the festival.
The remainder was distributed by Féile an Phobail to five other organisations.
This year, the festival received another £200,000 from DCAL's latest cultural programme.
That was split, with £90,000 for the festival to use and £110,000 distributed to seven other organisations.
DCAL would not comment when asked if the application process for the funding given to Féile an Phobail had been openly advertised and whether any organisation could apply for it.
There is no suggestion of any wrongdoing by Féile an Phobail.
In a statement, it said it had been given the money to provide "access to the arts in some of the most 'at need' [and] disadvantaged communities in Belfast."
It said it was then "tasked with further expanding the project with an assembled team of cultural partners", enabling them to deliver the arts to "the heart of a diverse range of communities".
Adam Turkington, who runs a number of arts organisations in Belfast, said "nobody knows what the process is" for obtaining the money given to Féile an Phobail.
He added that he felt Ms Ní Chuilín had a "personal agenda" over how some arts groups were funded.
Belfast writer Glenn Patterson said there would be a "great deal of justifiable anger" over the circumstances of the funding at a time of cuts to other arts organisations.
Earlier this month, 32 of Northern Ireland's biggest arts groups were told their public funding would be cut by 7%.
"There are people who are losing their jobs, there are organisations that are going to the wall," Mr Patterson said.
He added that allocation of the money to Féile an Phobail to then allocate to other groups "it seems at the minister's behest" would "take a lot of people by surprise".
Democratic Unionist Party MLA Nelson McCausland, the chair of the Northern Ireland Assembly's culture committee, said the money should not have been handed out to one organisation "in this secret manner".
"If you had money to spend within the department you could potentially hand it out through the Arts Council," he said.
"Alternatively, if it's to be handled by the department, they should have created a specific programme with application forms, criteria, advertisements, accessibility.
"Most people I've spoken to right across the arts world in Northern Ireland have said: 'We knew nothing about this.'"
Ms Ní Chuilín said Mr McCausland's comments were "quite disgraceful".
She said Féile an Phobail had provided a "business case, they've done evaluation, they've been through more due diligence and scrutiny than any other funded body".
"We need to create a fund where people see festivals as a way of generating the economy," she added. | More than £500,000 has been given to a community arts festival in the last two years through a funding programme where it was the only group to get a grant. |
Summarize the information in the following section. | The 73-year-old admitted 29 charges of abuse against boys aged between nine and 16, at Southwark Crown Court.
He denied 12 further charges and will face a trial beginning on 24 November at the same London court.
Denning, of Basildon in Essex, was charged as part of Operation Yewtree, which was set up in the wake of the Jimmy Savile sex abuse scandal.
The offences Denning admitted were committed between 1967 and 1984.
They were made up of 26 counts of indecent assault and three of indecency with a child.
The charges he denies include indecent assault, indecency with a child and more serious sexual offences.
Denning, who was first arrested by Yewtree detectives in June last year, was remanded in custody until his trial, which is expected to last up to two weeks.
He was one of the original line-up on BBC Radio 1 when the station launched in 1967.
He was also the first announcer heard on BBC Two when it took to the air in 1964. | Former BBC Radio 1 DJ Chris Denning has pleaded guilty to a string of historical sex offences against boys. |
What is a brief summary of the information below? | Ihor Kolomoisky, governor of the strategic industrial region of Dnipropetrovsk, is one of the country's richest and most powerful men.
The president's move against him could herald the beginning of a period of bitter infighting and instability.
The result of this conflict could prove as crucial to Ukraine's future as the outcome of the war with Moscow-backed insurgents and Russian soldiers in the country's east.
Mr Poroshenko seems to want to send a strong signal that his government is getting serious about pursuing reform and battling corruption.
First came the firing of Mr Kolomoisky - presumably over his sending armed men to settle a dispute at the state oil firm Ukrnafta and oil transport firm Ukrtransnafta.
Then there was the very public arrest later in the day of two top officials - Emergencies Minister Serhiy Bochkovsky and his first deputy Vasyl Stoyetsky - on suspicion of corruption.
These two arrests were obviously carried out for maximum impact and visibility - at a cabinet meeting, on live television.
The image of Mr Bochkovsky and Mr Stoyetsky being led away in handcuffs, while other members of the government looked on, will now become part of the government's crime-fighting show reel.
For many Ukrainians, this is welcome news. Tackling corruption and reducing the oligarchs' power - if not removing them entirely - is widely seen as essential if the goals of last year's revolution are to be realised, and if Ukraine is to become, as they put it, a "normal" country.
But the risks are high, and many doubt the government and Mr Poroshenko's seriousness, despite all the headline-grabbing actions.
If this effort collapses, then some fear Ukraine itself risks becoming a failed state, with men like Mr Kolomoisky emerging as rulers of their individual fiefdoms, complete with their own private armies.
As a result, Mr Poroshenko has had to tread a fine line in dealing with Ukraine's tycoons. On the one hand, he desperately needs their support as powerbrokers. But, on the other, if they get too influential the country itself is threatened.
The events surrounding Mr Kolomoisky's dismissal underline the president's dilemma.
Mr Kolomoisky, who Forbes magazine estimates to be worth $1.8bn (£1.2bn), is head of the Privat Group, a massive conglomerate involved in media, metals, food processing and oil trading. He also owns Ukraine's largest bank - called Privat.
The enormously wealthy and influential oligarch has financed armed volunteers to fight pro-Russian separatists in the east.
Many, especially in his home province, view him as a hero and a patriot, and credit him with preventing the Russian-backed insurgency from spreading to Dnipropetrovsk. They point out that other oligarchs were unable, or unwilling, to do this in Donetsk and Luhansk.
In many cases the volunteers have taken over the bulk of the fighting and suffered the worst of the violence.
"We know what he is - he's an oligarch," said Dmitry, a businessman from Dnipropetrovsk visiting Kiev, who asked not to use his last name. "But he's kept everything quiet for us. We like Kolomoisky."
But he is accused by many of using his position to increase his wealth and influence - and it now seems he is willing to go to great lengths to protect his prerogatives.
The details are still murky around what actually happened last week at the offices of Ukrnafta and Ukrtransnafta. But one thing seems clear: Mr Kolomoisky has access to armed groups whom he is willing to mobilise at a moment's notice.
This seems to be a red line for Mr Poroshenko. After warning against any governor possessing a "pocket army" he summoned the billionaire and sacked him.
However, the question remains: Will this be enough to cow Mr Kolomoisky, or any other oligarch for that matter?
Or is this just the first shot in a long battle? He still has access to tremendous wealth and resources, and may at some point push back harder if he feels his core interests are under threat.
What is more, critics say, Mr Kolomoisky represents an entire system of doing business, characterised by insider deals, kickbacks and mutual back-scratching.
It is a system that employs millions of Ukrainians, and that many duplicate in their own dealings. Many argue that Mr Poroshenko, a billionaire himself, is very much a part of that system.
Indeed, some observers are asking if Mr Kolomoisky's use of armed men to solve his business disputes is simply part of a turf war between oligarchs.
There are also fears that if the oligarchs don't resolve their differences, and accept a new way of doing things, there might not be a Ukraine from which they could profit for much longer. | Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko's decision to sack a powerful regional governor may be a decisive moment in Kiev's battle to rein in the country's so-called "oligarchs". |
Provide a brief summary of this section. | The company, part-owned by private equity firm Bain Capital, wants to pay off some of its debt, it says.
It was founded in 1957 in Toronto and is known for its coyote fur-lined hooded jackets.
The company says it started off making woollen vests, raincoats and snowmobile suits.
It then moved into Arctic and mountain expedition coats and more recently, luxury jackets.
The company issued a $100m (£80m) placeholder filing, but could raise as much as $300m, valuing the company at $2bn, according to Bloomberg news.
Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, Credit Suisse, Goldman Sachs and RBC Capital Markets will organise the share sale, according to the filing.

Police believe it was carrying mobile phones, SIM cards and drugs.
A Prison Service spokesman said: "All contraband was seized and handed to the police to investigate".
"Incidents involving drones are rare, but we remain constantly vigilant to all new threats to prison security," he added.
"We are strengthening our powers to ensure those found using drones to smuggle material into prison are punished."
Anyone convicted of the offence faces a prison sentence of up to two years.
Further inquiries are expected to be carried out later, said a police spokesman.
The MoJ reported nine attempts to use drones to infiltrate prisons in England and Wales in the first five months of 2015 - among them was a drone carrying mobile phones and drugs into Bedford Prison which was caught by prison officers.
It is already a criminal offence to throw drugs and other items over a prison wall.
HMP Manchester is a high security prison, which houses around 1,200 inmates.
The site, which is also close to the Inverness Campus, had not previously been available to SPS. A site at Milton of Leys was considered last year.
The new HMP Highland would replace 112-year-old Inverness Prison, which is close to Inverness city centre.
It is one of the smallest and oldest jails in Scotland.
SPS said the new proposed site has been deemed suitable for development as a prison.
Colin McConnell, chief executive of SPS, said: "An agreement has now been concluded with the site owners and SPS intend to pursue a planning application for the site in due course.
"The application for the site will of course include the normal community consultation processes."
"SPS do not intend to pursue any further interest in the site at Milton of Leys."
The proposal to locate the prison on farmland on the edge of Milton of Leys had faced strong opposition from residents of the large suburb.
Justice Secretary Michael Matheson said: "I'm pleased that SPS have now reached this stage and look forward to the development of a new fit for purpose prison which can provide suitable accommodation for people in custody from the Highlands and Islands - keeping them closer to their families and their communities." | A drone being used to smuggle contraband into the grounds of a prison has been recovered by guards, the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) has said.

The 29-year-old France international has regularly been linked with a move.
It is understood the Hammers recently turned down a £19.1m bid for Payet from his former side Marseille.
"We have said we don't want to sell our best players but Payet does not want to play for us," Bilic said. "We are not going to sell him."
Payet joined West Ham from Marseille for £10.7m in June 2015.
He excelled in his first season with the London club, scoring 12 goals and earning a nomination for the PFA Players' Player of the Year award.
In February 2016 he signed a new contract to tie him to the Hammers to the summer of 2021.
Payet has scored five goals so far this season, and the Sun reported last week that Bilic had ordered him to improve his attitude.
"I expect from him to come back and to show commitment and determination to the team like the team has shown to him," Bilic said on Thursday.
"We aren't going to sell him. It's not a money issue or anything. We want to keep our best players.
"I spoke to the chairman and this is not a money issue. We gave him a long contract because we want him to stay."
Payet was left on the bench for Friday's 5-0 FA Cup defeat by Manchester City.
"He's probably been tapped up by some clubs or whatever," added Bilic. "That is usual at this time of year.
"But until he changes his attitude he is out of the team and he's not going to train with us."
West Ham are 13th in the Premier League, seven points above the relegation zone, and host Crystal Palace on Saturday.
Cambridge United supporter Simon Dobbin, 42, of Mildenhall, Suffolk, was brutally assaulted after his team played at Southend United on 21 March.
He suffered a head injury and is critically ill in hospital.
His sister Victoria Forsythe said she and her family were "not in any way upset or angry" at Southend fans.
She said that in fact, they felt "much the opposite" as Southend supporters had "supported us through this tough time and continue to do so".
"As a family, we are hopeful and are holding on to the miracle that Simon will wake up."
The grandfather remains in a medically-induced coma at Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge.
He also sustained a broken hip and broken nose during the attack in the Essex town's East Street.
Police said Mr Dobbin and his friends had left the Blue Boar pub when they were assaulted by a group of men who had come out of another pub.
The fight was broken up by police using CS spray.
Det Ch Insp Martin Pasmore said: "He is a decent family man who was simply enjoying a day out.

But the company has now confirmed it withdrew the property from public auction after entering private talks.
Meanwhile, Durham University hopes new owners will continue to explore the site's geothermal potential.
A spokeswoman for Lafarge Tarmac said: "We can confirm we are no longer putting the Weardale site up for public auction.
"We are in exclusive talks with a private buyer. We cannot comment further at this stage."
The former cement works closed in 2002 with the loss of nearly 200 jobs.
Subsequent plans for the creation of homes, business and leisure facilities powered by five forms of renewable energy at Eastgate halted after funds dried up.
The 431-hectare (1,065-acre) site contains two of the most recent deep geothermal boreholes to be drilled in the country.
Dr Charlotte Adams, research manager for BritGeothermal at the Department of Earth Sciences at Durham University, said: "The boreholes at Eastgate are an important resource for understanding the UK's geothermal potential.
"Geothermal energy can help the UK become more self-sufficient and resilient with respect to energy in the future.
"We therefore hope that any subsequent site owner will view the boreholes as an asset and continue to support their use for Research and Development purposes."
The site's quarry is currently being used by ITV for filming of a series based on Beowulf.
Lise Grande told the BBC residents were in grave danger as so-called Islamic State (IS) was directly targeting families.
Many people in the city are already facing severe shortages of water and electricity.
Iraqi forces said they made gains in a new assault on IS there on Saturday.
Troops say they made progress in a few hours as they tried to drive the militants out of the last remaining strongholds they still control in Mosul's Old City.
Hundreds of thousands of civilians have fled the northern city since the offensive to reclaim it was launched in October last year.
Ms Grande said that the next part of the assault was going to be the hardest.
"...Civilians are going to be at the most extreme risk they have been during the entire campaign," she said.
"We know that ISIL [IS] is directly targeting families as they try to escape, we know that there are very limited stocks of food and medicines, we know that there are severe shortages of water and electricity.
"All of the evidence points to the fact that the civilians who are trapped in these neighbourhoods and districts are in grave danger."
The government announced the recapture of eastern Mosul in January but the fight for complete control of the western half continues.
Thousands of Iraqi security forces, Kurdish Peshmerga fighters, Sunni Arab tribesmen and Shia militiamen, assisted by US-led coalition warplanes and military advisers, are involved in the offensive.
Earlier this month, coalition officials estimated the number of militants in Mosul to be fewer than 1,000 - compared with 3,500 to 6,000 militants in and around the city before the offensive began last October.
The UN has said the battle has left more than 8,000 civilians dead or wounded, but that figure only comprises people transferred to medical facilities.
Iraq's military does not release casualty figures, but US Gen Joseph Votel told a Congressional hearing at the end of March that at least 774 Iraqi security personnel had been killed and 4,600 wounded.

What is the summary of the following document? | Martin McGuinness said he is confident that the project between Londonderry and Aughnacloy will "definitely happen".
The Irish Minister for Foreign Affairs, Charlie Flanagan, said on Tuesday he welcomed the Irish government's commitment to a renewed focus on the A5.
The cross-border project, which would lessen journey times by up to 20 minutes, stalled in 2013 due to a ruling by the High Court.
The total cost of the 55-mile upgrade - which would create a key cross-border business route linking Dublin to the north west - was to be £850m.
At a Sinn Féin public meeting, held in Derry on Wednesday night, Mr McGuinness said he "spoke to Peter Robinson and he is also committed".
"I have nailed my colours to the mast on the project.
"If the project doesn't go ahead in the aftermath of the next assembly elections, which is only a few months away, we will will not be agreeing a programme for government.
"I would have every expectation that work on the A5 will start in just over a year from now.
"Those people who say that the A5 is dead in the water are going to get a big surprise."
Mr McGuinness was broadly positive about the current political talks at Stormont but critical of the government.
He emphasised that if agreement is not reached in the next couple of weeks "there will be no future for the executive".
During his speech he also condemned the murders of Jock Davison and Kevin McGuigan, describing those responsible as "criminals".
He added that during recent trouble in North Belfast some unionist ministers were "hopping like penguins as they stood beside the UVF fermenting trouble on the streets".

But it was a long time in coming and with football, cricket, tennis, snooker and skiing all competing for your sporting attention on Sunday, you could be forgiven for switching away long before this exciting conclusion occurred.
The golfers were not especially slow but grouping them in three-balls, rather than the usual pairings of two, meant the weekend's twists and turns took an age to develop.
Sunday's champion chipped in for eagle on the 10th hole to leap into what should have been an absorbing title battle. However it was more than two full hours, during which the Southport star hit only 28 more shots, before the killer blow was administered.
And even then we had to wait for the final trio, Dustin Johnson, Pablo Larrazabal and Tyrrell Hatton, to complete their rounds - another quarter of an hour or so - before Fleetwood could, at last, be crowned champion.
All week in Abu Dhabi, the talk was of growing the game and attracting more fans. We had music on the range and on the final day more tunes were played to accompany the players' walk to the first tee.
Stewards clapped together their wooden "quiet please" signs (oh, the irony) to try to generate more atmosphere, but with limited success. It wasn't, thankfully, the sort of entrance you would see at the Lakeside darts.
Nevertheless it was a refreshing start and the organisers should be applauded for making the effort to give the pro game a bit of a showbiz feel, make it less stuffy and more welcoming. After all, we have been calling for such thinking for long enough.
Then, however, it all reverted to type. Spectators were put in their place with a warning, announced from the first tee, to put away cameras and phones before the formal introduction of the players.
All these announcements were made in English, which does little for game growing in Abu Dhabi. Let's not kid ourselves, these desert tournaments are purely the preserve of the ex-pat communities in the Middle East.
And for the worldwide television audience, there was then a five-hour wait from the moment the final group teed off until the tournament was decided. That's a sizeable chunk of anyone's weekend.
The decision to play in threes was made because 73 players made the cut and this was the only way to get them all round in the available daylight with a one-tee start.
Logistics determined the timetable, but when so many players make the cut (the leading 65 and ties qualify for the third round) it becomes too unwieldy.
Secondary cuts at the 54-hole stage are employed in some events but they should become standard practice whenever the only alternative is playing three-balls on the marquee final day.
As all of the other modernising initiatives try to demonstrate, pro golf is showbiz. The sport itself, surely, has to reflect the fact by being engaging and watchable.
So there should be a second cut on a Saturday evening. It would inject more interest to the penultimate day and would leave only genuine contenders competing in the closing round.
It is unlikely to happen though. The golfers are likely to object to anything that makes tournaments more cut-throat and, don't forget, the tours are run for the benefit of the players, their members.
But the bigger picture - which is the small one that fills television screens - suggests there should be no room for petty self-interest and that something needs to happen.
After all, what should have been a thrilling weekend was slow and stodgy and not the spectacle it deserved to be.
Only the die-hards, who stuck with it all the way, could genuinely appreciate Fleetwood's brilliant win and that cannot be right when trying to popularise golf is such a priority. | Watching Tommy Fleetwood smashing a three-wood to the home green, imploring it to reach its distant target to help him clinch a prestigious title, was outstanding sporting theatre. |
Write a concise summary of the provided excerpt. | The 37-year-old Belgian assisted Jose Riga at the end of the 2013-14 season when he helped the Addicks avoid relegation from the Championship.
Fellow Belgian Wim De Corte will assist him on a temporary basis after Luzon's backroom team also left the Valley.
Charlton are in the relegation zone in the Championship and without a league victory since 22 August.
Luzon was sacked on Saturday after a 3-0 home defeat by Brentford left Charlton 22nd in the second tier having lost seven of their last nine league games.
The 40-year-old had won just 12 of his 36 matches in charge since taking over in January.
Scientists say beauty products containing plastic microbeads pollute water supplies, harm sea creatures and leave tiny particles in human food.
The beads are added to hundreds of skin care products to help remove dead skin cells.
Concerns have now been raised that microplastics are entering human food via cosmetic pollution in Welsh waters.
Marine biologist Dr Andrew Davies, from Bangor University, said researchers have noticed the tiny spheres accumulating inside the guts and gills of plankton.
He said they can cause "major problems" and scientists have been trying to understand the "ecosystem effect" of microplastics as they pass through the food chain.
Once washed down the sink, the beads pass through sewers before flowing into water systems.
Campaign group, Beat the Microbead, says sea creatures can "absorb or eat" microbeads, which they are unable to distinguish from organic food.
Microbeads, which are 5mm wide or less, are usually made of plastics such as polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate or nylon.
Scientists say they can also act like tiny sponges, absorbing dangerous chemicals such as pesticides and flame retardants, before they are swallowed by fish.
Microplastics are non-biodegradable and are difficult to remove once they have entered a marine environment.
The Beat the Microbead campaign group says it "is likely" humans absorb the miniature plastic particles present in seafood caught in affected areas.
Unilever announced in 2012 that it would remove synthetic scrub beads from all of its products by 2015, with many major cosmetics providers following suit since.
In June, 2014 Illinois became the first state in the Unites States to ban cosmetics containing the controversial microspheres.

Please provide a short summary of this passage. | Mr Kushner has volunteered to speak to the Senate Intelligence Committee, the White House said.
It is examining Russia's alleged interference in last year's election.
The US intelligence community believes alleged Russian hacking during the presidential election was done to help Mr Trump defeat Hillary Clinton.
Russia has denied the allegations and President Trump has branded the story "fake news".
There are two congressional investigations into the issue, plus an FBI one.
The Senate committee wants to question him about two meetings he allegedly arranged with senior Russians, officials told the New York Times say.
But staff of Mr Kushner, who was a senior adviser to Mr Trump during the election campaign, have said that so far his offer to be questioned has not been answered.
White House spokesman Sean Spicer said that Mr Kushner has not invoked executive privilege, and will testify because his job with the campaign was to be a "conduit to leaders".
"That was his role and he wants to makes sure that he's very clear about the role that he played, who he talked to, and that's it," Mr Spicer said on Monday.
During the presidential transition process and through the first few months of the Trump administration, presidential son-in-law Jared Kushner has been, in effect, a one-man Department of State.
He has been tasked with brokering Middle East peace, soothing Mexican and Canadian officials as Nafta is reopened for negotiation and handling Chinese diplomats puzzled by the new Washington regime.
As tense as all these situations have been and will be going forward for the 36-year-old real-estate developer, it's Mr Kushner's dealings with Russian officials that may put him in the sharpest spotlight. The Russian story, given congressional inquiries and the ongoing FBI investigation, has the potential to be a ticking bomb within the Trump White House.
When Mr Kushner sits down with committee investigators he will, in effect, be speaking for the president - and his words could go a long way toward assuaging concerns or bringing the controversy one step closer to the president himself.
The meeting will likely be cordial for now. If Mr Kushner is at some point called to publicly testify before a congressional committee on the matter, things could get heated very quickly.
The first was with Russian Ambassador Sergei Kislyak at Trump Tower in New York in December. The second was with the head of Russia's state-owned development bank.
White House staff told the New York Times nothing significant was discussed and members of the president-elect's team routinely met Russians and other foreign delegations.
Meanwhile, Mr Kushner has been picked to lead a new White House team that aims to overhaul government bureaucracy.
It will have sweeping powers to reform procedures, with technology and data a key area and the help of Apple CEO Tim Cook and Microsoft founder Bill Gates reportedly enlisted.
Mr Kushner, 36, told the newspaper the "government should be run like a great American company".
He is a property investor and media executive who is married to Mr Trump's daughter Ivanka.
He already advises the president on foreign relations, and is said to have been influential in helping President Trump choose staff for his campaign and in government. | President Donald Trump's son-in-law and aide, Jared Kushner, will be questioned by a US committee investigating alleged ties between the Trump team and Moscow. |
Can you provide a summary of this content? | Grand Prix Drivers' Association chairman Alexander Wurz said: "We need to stop the sudden explosions."
The intervention comes after Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel and Mercedes' Nico Rosberg suffered tyre failures at close to 200mph at Spa over the weekend.
Pirelli says it is conducting a forensic investigation to understand the failures.
A spokesman said it hoped to have a comprehensive explanation of the causes of Vettel's incident by Thursday.

Former F1 driver Wurz, who leads the GPDA with fellow directors Vettel and Jenson Button, told BBC Sport: "As drivers, we strongly believe the end of a tyre's performance window can and should not be a tyre delamination in the form of an explosion.
"I believe there are technologies which prevent such sudden delamination, but for the short term we need to give Pirelli the freedom and support to introduce any measures they declare safe and fit for F1 racing."
Wurz - who races for Toyota in the World Endurance Championship, where all the leading teams use Michelin tyres - added that the GPDA was in contact with governing body the FIA and Pirelli on the issue.
He said: "We request their utmost attention to the tyre blowouts at Spa. We need to work together to get on top of such safety concerns."
The drivers are angry about the situation because it appears reminiscent to them of the 2013 British Grand Prix, when six tyre failures in one race plunged F1 into crisis.
Pirelli had to make emergency changes to its tyres after that race.
Drivers fear tyre explosions for two reasons:
Wurz added: "It needs to be said that we have seen tyre failures throughout the history of F1 and racing.
"This is not desired, but we are aware of the difficulties tyre manufacturers face because of ever-evolving lap times and forces.
"It is the management of and reaction to such failures, and the development of better, faster and safer tyres, which F1 shall and must embrace and even demand.
"This is for the safety of the drivers but also for feeding safer technologies into road tyres."

A Pirelli spokesman said that, at this stage, the company still felt wear was the major contributory factor to Vettel's failure.
He said that most teams and drivers had chosen to do a two-stop strategy, while Ferrari were trying to make it though the race on one stop, and that the longest any other driver ran the medium tyre that failed on Vettel's car was 22 laps by Force India's Sergio Perez.
Vettel's tyre exploded on its 29th lap - well within the maximum of 40 laps Pirelli had recommended to Ferrari. The Italian team were also not warned by their Pirelli engineer during that race that they were taking any significant risks.
Pirelli put out a statement on Sunday night after the race that said its 2013 suggestion to impose maximum usage limits on tyres had not been adopted by F1. | Formula 1 drivers have demanded the end of tyre blowouts after two dramatic failures at the Belgian Grand Prix. |
Can you summarize this content? | The company said more than 20 tonnes of fat and waste end up in the city's Park End Street sewer alone each year.
Thames Water said it mixes with waste such as wet wipes and hardens, blocking the city's sewer system.
The company found 80% of 200 eateries surveyed did not have any grease-trapping equipment.
Updates on this story and more from Oxfordshire
Spokeswoman Becky Trotman said in Oxford the problem "seems to be getting worse" and a blockage the size of two double-decker buses was removed in February.
She said food outlets are being urged to fit grease-trapping equipment that prevents oil from being washed into the city sewers.
A further 15% of food outlets were found to be using ineffective grease traps, while less than half of managers and owners surveyed knew what they were.
Thames Water regional manager Sean Walden said: "It was particularly useful to speak to business owners about their responsibilities.
"The majority are keen to learn more about what they can do to help reduce fatbergs, which is really encouraging."
In 2014 a fatberg caused the sewer under Hollybush Row to collapse and work to remove it caused caused traffic delays in the centre of Oxford. | Oxford has persistent problems with "fatbergs" because only 5% of food outlets are correctly disposing of oil, fat and grease, Thames Water has said. |
Provide a brief summary of this section. | Ben Wragge, 13, was fatally wounded in Thurston, Suffolk, on 1 May 2016.
An inquest into his death was told he was hit in the neck by the gun which had no safety catch, was fitted with a silencer and could fire without the trigger being pulled.
The court heard Ben's friend "did not think he fired the weapon". The coroner recorded a verdict of accidental death.
Ben was fatally struck while playing with a group of boys at a friend's house. They had been to the Thurston spring fair before cycling to the house to see the progress of a shed being built as a "boy cave".
One of his friends had been holding the weapon and focusing on trees at the time of the accident, Det Insp Kevin Hayward, of Suffolk Police, said.
More news from Suffolk
"He then swung around to hand the weapon over, then felt a shake," Det Insp Hayward said.
"He did not think the weapon was loaded and he did not think he fired the weapon.
"He heard Ben shout 'ow'. He did not think anything had happened until he saw blood."
The inquest heard Ben's friends raised the alarm and told his mother, who tried to revive him by performing CPR. He later died at West Suffolk Hospital.
The air rifle belonged to the father of one of the friends, the court was told.
It was a .22 air rifle which had a telescopic sight and silencer, could be loaded with up to nine pellets without them being visible, had no safety catch and could discharge without the trigger being pulled.
Ben's family told Suffolk senior coroner Dr Peter Dean they want to prevent anyone suffering such a devastating loss and called for laws on gun use to be tightened.
"Following the tragic death of Ben, we very strongly feel that had the law on the licensing, registration and storage of airguns been amended in the past, Ben's death could have been prevented," relative Zoe Wragge said.
Recording a conclusion of accidental death at the inquest in Ipswich, Dr Dean asked that the Home Office review the individual circumstances and the legislation around the use of airguns.
Two teenage boys were initially arrested on suspicion of manslaughter before being told they faced no further action in July 2016.

Myrtle Cothill was booked on a flight for Tuesday after having her bid to stay in Britain turned down.
More than 75,000 people have signed an online petition calling for Mrs Cothill to be allowed to stay in the UK.
Her daughter and lawyer have now said the Home Office has halted moves while awaiting new medical reports.
However, no permanent decision has been made on her case.
Mrs Cothill - a widow who arrived in the UK on a visitor's visa two years ago - has heart problems, is losing her eyesight and cannot walk unaided.
Her daughter Mary Wills and son-in-law David, who live in Poole, are unable to move to South Africa because they have no right to live there.
Mrs Wills, 66, says she fears her mother's move back to South Africa could be fatal.
She said she was "delighted" that her mother had been granted more time.
She added: "It has been a long, hard road and it has been very tearful. My mother is overwhelmed.
"My mother is looking much better now, her mouth was quivering but now she is looking more relaxed.
"We have had a huge amount of support, it has been brilliant.
"Our fingers are crossed that the Home Office will see the light and let her stay for good."
James Davies, senior asylum and immigration advisor for the International Care Network, who has been advising Mrs Cothill, said there had been "immense public support".
He added: "It's very heartening the public interest, and people are very upset about it.
"Rules need to have to be exercised with some discretion at the edges."
A Home Office spokesman said all applications were considered on their individual merits and in line with the immigration rules.

Summarize the information in the following section. | The encounter is thought to be the first confirmed private meeting between a Russian national and a member of Donald Trump's inner circle.
A special prosecutor is investigating whether Trump associates colluded with alleged Russian efforts to influence last November's US election.
Both Mr Trump Jr and the lawyer say the campaign was not discussed.
Mr Trump Jr was accompanied by the president's son-in-law Jared Kushner, and then-campaign head Paul J Manafort, meeting Natalia Veselnitskaya at New York's Trump Tower on 9 June, two weeks after Donald Trump secured the Republican nomination.
Mr Trump Jr said in a statement that they discussed a suspended programme for Americans to adopt Russian children.
He said it "was not a campaign issue at that time and there was no follow-up".
Mr Kushner's lawyer said he had previously disclosed the meeting on security clearance forms.
President Vladimir Putin suspended the adoption programme in 2012 after the US Congress voted in a law to allow the US to withhold visas and freeze financial assets of Russian officials thought to have been involved with human rights violations.
Ms Veselnitskaya, who played a key role campaigning against the law, said "nothing at all was discussed about the presidential campaign.
"I have never acted on behalf of the Russian government and have never discussed any of these matters with any representative of the Russian government."
Last week Mr Trump said interference in the election "could well have been" carried out by countries other than Russia and interference "has been happening for a long time".

The Spain striker missed the 3-0 win at Leicester, citing a back injury after a disagreement with a coach, amid reports of Chinese Super League interest.
However, he scored the opener on Sunday as the Blues went eight points clear.
"I am pleased for him and for the fans and club. Today finished all types of speculation," Conte told BBC Sport.
The Italian had been consistently questioned about Costa's future in the aftermath of the Leicester game and during the week. He repeatedly insisted the striker had told the club he could not train in the build-up to the Foxes game because of a back problem, and also denied any bid from a Chinese club.
"In this situation I told always the truth," Conte added. "I am happy for him and to finish this speculation. He played and played very well.
"A lot of people asked me about his form, his attitude, and I said I took the best decision for the team. I think I made the best decision after this performance."
Costa's celebration of his 15th Premier League goal of the season involved moving his hands to imitate speaking, which may have been aimed at the media for discussing the reasons for his absence.
Conte said: "Honestly, I was very happy to see his celebration because I was celebrating the goal on the bench. The most important thing was he scored."
Defender Gary Cahill, who scored the Blues' second goal, said: "He is delighted to come back. There has been a lot of talk.
"If he misses one game you are hearing about all the different stories. It gets a bit tiring and the best way to respond is to get a goal. We are delighted to have him back in the team." | The US president's son, Donald Trump Jr, has admitted meeting a Kremlin-linked Russian lawyer last year.

Write a summary for this information. | A total of 12,077 appeals were made this year to the Scottish Qualifications Authority - nearly 4,000 more than last year.
The overall number of appeals which led to a grade change went up although the proportion of appeals which were successful was down significantly.
A financial charge is now made when appeals are unsuccessful.
Big changes were made to the appeal system last year alongside the introduction of new qualifications.
The appeals process was, essentially, split into two.
If a candidate could be expected to get a poorer mark than they deserve - for instance because of serious illness or a death in the family - the school makes the appeal to the SQA in advance and provides supporting evidence. That way the candidate should still get the grade they merit when the exam results are published in August.
After the exam results are released, schools can ask for a paper's marking to be checked or for the marks to be added up again if they suspect a mistake has been made.
This year 12,077 appeals were made after the exam results were published - 2,378 led to the candidate being awarded a higher grade.
That compares to 2,175 out of 8,448 last year.
The concerns alone about the Higher Maths exam are not a major factor in the overall figures.
The total number of appeals has gone up but the proportion which led to a change in the grade is down.
There is a charge for appeals which do not lead to a change in the grade - this was designed as a deterrent against the purely speculative appeals which, it is alleged, some schools previously made simply because a candidate got a disappointing mark.
But does this also lead to a reluctance to make appeals which may, just, have succeeded?
Read more from Jamie here.
In 2013, 32,000 appeals were made. But this total also included candidates whose disappointing exam day performance could have been anticipated and the so-called "speculative appeals" which the new system was designed to discourage.
Charges are now made when appeals are unsuccessful to try to deter purely speculative appeals. An appeal can also result in a lower mark now - although this only happened on five occasions.
Earlier this year, Labour warned that some state schools may have been reluctant to put in appeals because of pressure on their budgets and suggested independent schools were more likely to make them.
Dr Janet Brown, SQA Chief Executive, said: "At the heart of all our activities is a commitment to the highest possible standards in Scottish qualifications.
"As part of that commitment, we have put systems in place to ensure that our approach to assessing qualifications is high-quality, rigorous and fair for all candidates. Post Results Services were designed in partnership and consultation with representatives from across Scotland's education system."
"We constantly review our procedures to enhance and improve them with the aim of ensuring the best possible outcomes for candidates."
The controversy over this year's Higher Maths exam, said to have reduced some pupils to tears, means the number of appeals in the subject is of particular interest.
The pass mark in the New Higher was lowered to just 34% and candidates needed just 60% for an A Grade after the paper proved significantly harder than intended.
Just 29 appeals on behalf of candidates who sat the New Higher led them receiving a better grade, while 42 who sat the old Higher got a better grade on appeal.
Scottish Labour's opportunity spokesman Iain Gray said the "extraordinary" rise in appeals "shows just how chaotic the new exams system is".
He called for an urgent review of "what went wrong" with exams this year.
He said: "SNP Ministers and the SQA can't bury their heads in the sand any longer. The excuses we have heard previously from the SQA that they did their job just aren't good enough."
Lib Dem education spokesman Liam McArthur added: "Marking of exam papers needs to be consistent across the country so pupils know they are being treated equally and fairly. The increase in requests for review of results and the number of changes that have to be granted is therefore worrying."
A Scottish government spokesperson said; "This year 142,862 candidates sat a wide range of qualifications with record numbers achieving Higher and Advanced Higher passes.
"The number of requests for review is a very small proportion of the total number of entries, with grades only changing in 0.4%.
"Meanwhile, the rate of requests for review for Higher Maths is lower than the average across all Higher subjects." | The number of exam appeals in Scotland has gone up,as big changes to the education system continue to bed in. |
Summarize the following piece. | They say letters found at the scene may be an attempt to trick people into thinking there was an Islamist motive.

Spanish footballer Marc Bartra underwent wrist surgery and a police officer was treated for shock.
Following the attack, Borussia Dortmund's Champion's League match against Monaco was rescheduled a day later, which led Dortmund fans to open their doors to stranded away supporters.
On Wednesday, a 25-year-old Iraqi "with Islamist links" was arrested.
But the three identical letters found near the scene - which said the attack was done "in the name of Allah" - may be fakes, intended to pin the blame on radical Islamists.
The developments came to light when two German state broadcasters - NDR and WDR - together with the Suedeutsche Zeitung newspaper reported the study on Friday.
When asked to comment, state prosecutor Frauke Koehler agreed the media reports were "accurate".
They highlight that "many things" from the letters are "untypical" for groups like so-called Islamic State (IS). These include a claim that sportspeople and other famous figures were in danger unless the Ramstein Air Base is closed and German warplanes withdrew from Syria.
IS normally does not negotiate in such a way, Mr Koehler added.
The Ramstein Air Base in southern Germany is a US base and a centre of drone operations.
Anonymous security experts quoted in the Sueddeutsche piece (in German) say the text of the letters was likely written by a native German speaker who built in mistakes to make it look like it was written by someone for whom German was their second language.
Investigators were still not clear about what kind of attacker might have wished to frame Islamists for an attack, but said the explosives used in the attack were professionally-made.
And another German newspaper, Tagesspiegel, said it had received an email from someone with right-wing motives, who said the attack was a warning and made racist threats.
The authorities are taking that email seriously, the newspaper reported.

Provide a brief summary of this section. | The Internet Party was a "movement for the freedom of the internet and technology, for privacy and political reform", the tycoon said.
New Zealand goes to the polls in September.
Mr Dotcom is fighting extradition to the US over charges of copyright infringement on a "massive scale".
To enter parliament, the Internet Party must win an electoral seat or secure 5% of the vote. One suggestion was that he could align with an existing party, but his most likely ally earlier this week cast doubt on that plan.
On its website, the party said that it would "give you faster, cheaper internet, create high-tech jobs, protect your privacy and safeguard our independence".
It also promised to introduce "a New Zealand-sponsored digital currency that is safe, secure and encrypted".
Mr Dotcom was arrested at his mansion near Auckland, New Zealand, in January 2012. As well as MegaUpload being shut down, Mr Dotcom's assets were frozen.
But later scrutiny of the raid led to New Zealand Prime Minister John Key apologising to Mr Dotcom for what were described as "basic errors" by intelligence services in collecting information on behalf of the US.
US authorities accuse him of earning more than $175m (£106m) by facilitating the distribution of pirated copies of movies, TV shows and other content. Kim Dotcom denies any wrongdoing.
In January 2013, a year after the closure of MegaUpload, he set up Mega, which also allows users to host and share large files on the internet.
Earlier this week, he announced plans to list his new file-sharing firm on the New Zealand stock market.
He also caused controversy this week by admitting he owned a signed copy of Adolf Hitler's book Mein Kampf.
But the internet entrepreneur said he was "totally against" the Nazis and pointed out he also owned objects that had belonged to Churchill and Stalin.
The Sekhemka statue of a priest - or court official - said to be worth up to £6m, is due to go for auction at Christie's in London on Thursday.
The Cairo-based ministry, dedicated to recovering antiquities, has collected petition signatures from Egypt, the UK, Belgium and Canada, to stop the sale.
The council said Egypt had no claim on the statue and the sale would go ahead.
The sale of the statue is to help fund a £14m extension to Northampton Museum and Art Gallery.
The proceeds will be shared with Lord Northampton, whose family gave the statue to the museum in 1880.
The council said it wanted to double the exhibition space at the museum, as well as creating new galleries and teaching facilities.
Antiquities minister Mamdouh el-Damaty said he was "astonished" the sale was going ahead and urged all those interested in Egyptian antiquities to join the campaign to save it from sale.
He has also addressed the International Council of Museums to stop the sale, which he said "breaches all museum ethics".
A spokesperson for the borough council said: "We contacted the Egyptian government two years ago regarding our plans to sell Sekhemka.
"According to Unesco's 1970 Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing Illicit Import, Export and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property, Egypt has no right to claim the recovery of the statue.
"The statue left Egypt before this convention was put in place and this was confirmed by the Egyptian government on 15 June." | Kim Dotcom, whose site MegaUpload was shut down by US authorities in 2012, has formally launched a political party in New Zealand.

Summarize the provided information. | The failure to fortify flour has caused serious disabilities, including spina bifida, and resulted in terminations and stillbirths, their study said.
The US and 77 other countries already have a policy in place.
The Department of Health said it was currently considering the matter.
This follows the Scientific Advisory Committee on Nutrition recently saying it was in favour of folic add being added to flour for bread in the UK.
Folic acid is found naturally in some foods, such as green vegetables, nuts and granary bread.
It is added to some breakfast cereals, but it is very difficult for pregnant women to get enough from diet alone.
That is why in 1992, the Department of Health in England recommended that women take folic acid supplements before pregnancy to reduce their risk of having a baby with a neural tube defect (NTD) - which involve defects of the brain, spine or spinal cord.
But recent research shows that only 28% of pregnant women take them at the correct time.
However the government has so far been reluctant to force manufacturers to add folic acid to all bread.
This study, published in the Archives of Disease in Childhood, said the current policy was not working and the UK should be following the example of the US in fortifying flour with folic acid.
The US has seen a 23% fall in pregnancies with neural tube defects since the policy was introduced in 1998.
The researchers estimated that a similar policy in the UK would have prevented 1,798 pregnancies with NTD in England and Wales, 152 in Scotland and 64 in Northern Ireland over a 14-year period up to 2012.
This equates to a fall of 21% in pregnancies with neural tube defects over that period.
While most of the NTD pregnancies are terminated, around 75 babies a year are born with serious disabilities.
The research team, led by Prof Joan Morris from the Wolfson Institute of Preventative Medicine at Queen Mary University of London, said putting folic acid in flour was safe and could only be a good thing.
"Europe is the only region not to have a policy of fortifying flour with folic acid, despite evidence that it can cut the risk of neural tube defects by around 70%."
Dr Alison Tedstone, chief nutritionist at Public Health England, said too many women had folic acid levels below the new World Health Organization recommendation for women entering pregnancy.
"This highlights the importance for pregnant women, and those trying or likely to get pregnant, of taking a daily folic acid supplement of 400 micrograms - before and up to the 12th week of pregnancy."
Prof Alan Cameron, vice president of clinical quality for the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, said: "Food fortification will reach women most at risk due to poor dietary habits or socio-economic status as well as those women who may not have planned their pregnancy." | UK experts are backing the call for flour to be fortified with folic acid - a move which they say would have prevented around 2,000 cases of serious birth defects since 1998. |
Please summarize the given passage. | Firefighters were called to the Glasgow Wholesale Markets at Blochairn at 03:44 BST on Thursday. Flames were found to be threatening much of the building.
At the height of the fire, more than 70 firefighters were at the scene. They had to tackle a well-established fire on a 32-acre site.
No-one was injured.
By Thursday evening, some vehicular access was allowed to the markets, which supply fresh fruit and vegetables to much of Scotland. The complex also includes the only inland fish market in the country.
Market manager Tom McIntyre told BBC Scotland: "It's been an amazing the team effort, from the emergency services, to the utilities, to the traders themselves.
"People being orderly, behaving themselves, just knuckling down and getting on with it, and because we have had that kind of teamwork we now have the market at 90% operation."
Site owners City Property said nine businesses had been burnt out by the fire but the site traded at nearly full capacity overnight and this morning despite a third of it being cordoned off.
In a statement it said: "Emergency services are still in control of the damaged parts of the site.
"Once this is handed back, City Property will assess the damage and decide upon the best course of action."
After the fire was brought under control, Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) deputy assistant chief officer John Joyce said: "What I can tell you is that we've saved a very good proportion of it.
"In fact the site operator are pretty happy with the parts that we have saved because that is the main operational part of the building.
"It's a real shame for those businesses which have been badly affected, but we're working with the businesses and the city council to get the functioning part open as soon as possible."
He said a specialist fire investigation team would attempt to establish the cause of the fire in the coming days.
Douglas Scott, who was in the warehouse when the fire broke out, was back at work on Friday morning.
He told BBC Scotland reporter Aileen Clarke everyone was working together to ensure trading continued.
"We've come through some tough times but this won't stop us from trading, that's for sure," he said.
"We've got a good group of guys, they are all in this morning, they are all here.
"We only have about 10% of produce we would normally have but all our suppliers and customers have been on to say they will support us and be with us the whole way through it." | Trading has resumed at one of Scotland's most important wholesale markets, less than 24 hours after a devastating fire. |
Write a summary for this information. | Pope Francis has promised to visit Ireland for the World Meeting of Families in August 2018.
Michael D Higgins held a 15-minute audience with Pope Francis at the Vatican on Monday, then met the secretary of state of the Vatican.
Afterwards, he said "there is a better prospect and more scope" for a papal visit to Northern Ireland.
Mr Higgins said that during the longer meeting with secretary of state Cardinal Petro Parolin there was the opportunity to discuss "the changed circumstances of the last papal visit and the different circumstances now".
He added: "I have to say as well that, in all of that, in that second longer meeting, we were able to discuss specifically the importance of the Brexit negotiations in relation to the peace process.
"I think there was general agreement that circumstances were quite different now, and therefore the difficulties that might have been anticipated years ago, these circumstances were changed."
When pressed if Pope Francis and Cardinal Parolin both felt that circumstances had changed, President Higgins said: "Yes, there is agreement that circumstances have changed and that there is a better prospect and more scope."
Last year, the late Martin McGuinness, then Northern Ireland's deputy first minister, said he believed Pope Francis would cross the border and visit Northern Ireland in August 2018.
He told journalists: "I've been around a long time and I know how these things work."
A spokesman for First Minister Arlene Foster said if the Pope visited Northern Ireland as a head of state, she would meet him.
However, the Irish Catholic press office refused to confirm the visit would take place at the time.
According to a statement, President Higgins and the Pope also discussed migration, climate change, global poverty and the forthcoming Brexit negotiations during Monday's meeting.
The president and his wife presented Pope Francis with a climate bell designed by the Irish artist Vivienne Roche.
In return, the Pope Francis presented the president and his wife with medallions with an inscription of Isaiah, in which the Old Testament prophet refers to the desert becoming a fertile field, and the field then becoming a forest. | Ireland's president has raised the prospect of Pope Francis visiting Northern Ireland next year. |
