Please summarize the following text. | Fabrice Bregier said he was committed to its UK workers which includes 6,000 at its wing-making factory in Broughton, Flintshire.
His comments come after the UK boss of Airbus said it would reconsider future investment in the event of an EU-exit.
The referendum will not take place next 5 May, the government says.
At the Paris Air Show, Mr Bregier did say that in a new post-referendum environment, he would have to make a judgement about what the consequences would be for the competitiveness of his business.
Ms Davenport, 54, has announced she will leave her role in April after four years in the job and over 30 years in the police service.
She was appointed in 2013, becoming the first female to hold the top role within the Gloucestershire force.
She said being chief constable had been "not only the highlight of my career but the greatest possible honour".
Originally from North Yorkshire, Ms Davenport started her police service with West Mercia Police.
After a short spell at the Home Office in 2005 she was appointed Assistant Chief Constable of Staffordshire Police, and in May 2007 transferred to the West Midlands where she led intelligence and neighbourhood policing.

Summarize the content given in the passage. | Bradley Dos Reis Pais Quaresma died after a fight broke out between a large group of men in Stratford Park in West Ham Lane on 21 July 2016.
Mario Albino Te, 21, of no fixed address, was found guilty of manslaughter at the Old Bailey and jailed for 11 years and six months.
He had been charged with murder but was found not guilty.
The court heard young children were in the park enjoying the afternoon sun when the attack occurred.
Mr Quaresma, a Portuguese national who had been in contact with Te in the days leading up to the killing, was stabbed in the neck and chest and died at the scene.
The next morning Te boarded a train at St Pancras International Station but was detained by French police when he arrived in Paris and returned to the UK.

What is the summary of the provided article? | Mr Bond died on Friday morning at the Fiona Stanley Hospital in Perth days after undergoing heart surgery.
Mr Bond, who was born in the UK, became one of Australia's richest men, funding Australia's shock win of the America's Cup yachting race in 1983.
But he fell from grace in 1996 when found guilty of Australia's then biggest corporate fraud.
His children John Bond and Jody Fewster, speaking outside Fiona Stanley Hospital, said he had died earlier that morning. He had been in a coma since his heart surgery three days ago.
His body "finally gave out after heroic efforts of everyone involved here at the intensive care unit at Fiona Stanley Hospital," John Bond said.
Mr Bond paid tribute to his father, saying that to a lot of people, he was a "larger-than-life character" who started with nothing and rose to the heights of corporate Australia.
"He really did experience the highs and lows of life," said his son.
"To us, however, he was just Dad - a father who tried his best to be the best dad he could."
Alan Bond: Colourful character's fall from grace
Australia II, skippered by John Bertrand and equipped with a novel winged keel, sailed into national folklore when it grabbed the cup away from the prestigious New York Yacht Club, breaking the longest winning streak - 132 years - in sporting history.
Most Australians had never heard of the America's Cup. But the victory sparked massive celebration across the country and Bertrand was welcomed home with a ticker tape parade.
But it was Alan Bond who made it all possible.
At the time one of Australia's richest men, he bankrolled the Antipodeans' fourth bid to beat the Americans, and Australians loved him for it.
Mr Bond shot to public acclaim in Australia in 1983 after he bankrolled what would be the country's successful challenge of the coveted America's Cup yachting race.
But a decade later, the man dubbed Australian of the Year in 1978, fell spectacularly from grace.
In 1992 he was declared bankrupt, with personal debts totalling A$1.8 billion ($1.4bn;£900m).
He was jailed in 1997 for what would be described as Australia's biggest case of corporate fraud.
In Western Australia (WA), where his corporate collapse had the most impact on investors who lost money, not everyone remembers him favourably.
Few were willing on Friday to go on the record with their views. However, the Australian Financial Review quoted several business people who knew him well remembering how he had angered many with his "jet-set lifestyle" after investors were left with just half a cent in the dollar from his company's collapse.
WA Premier Colin Barnett said Bond was "a controversial figure but will also be remembered for a proud moment in Australia's history, which also put Western Australia on the map".
Australian Treasurer Joe Hockey said Bond had been a colourful character, but had caused "a lot of reputational damage to Australia".
"Frankly he left a number of positive legacies but there were a lot of tears along the way," he told Radio 2GB.
Many harsh comments about Mr Bond's business dealings were also posted on Twitter.
Mr Bond is survived by his ex-wife Eileen and three of his children, John, Craig and Jody. | Controversial Australian businessman Alan Bond has died at the age of 77, his family have announced. |

Provide a concise overview of the following information. | Human remains were found at a house in Ellesmere Port after police received information about Mr Borgye, 35, who disappeared four years ago.
Three men have been arrested on suspicion of murder following the discovery in Hylton Court.
Officers are examining dental records to identify the body.
Det Ch Insp Simon Price said: "Formal identification is going to take some time but based on the information we have at this time, we believe the victim is Christophe."
The post-mortem examination confirmed the cause of death as "blunt force trauma", said police who discovered the remains in a brick outbuilding.
Mr Borgye was living in the Ellesmere Port area at the time of his disappearance in May 2009 and is thought to have been an air steward for Ryanair at Liverpool John Lennon Airport, a police spokeswoman said.
She said following inquiries in 2009, police had been led to believe he was travelling abroad.
His family in France have been contacted and made aware of the investigation and discovery.

Write a brief summary of the document. | The pile-up occurred between junctions nine and 10 northbound in Oxfordshire on 14 February 2015.
Highways England claimed the move would improve driver safety in the area, though the sensor is not expected to be installed until after April 2017.
Edmund King from the AA said he was "disappointed" it was taking "so long".
He said the stretch of the M40 was described by many as "Fog Alley", and was an area "prone to pretty heavy fog".
Robert Pilott, 65, of Woking, Surrey, died in the accident in which six other people were seriously injured and 55 had minor injuries.
At an inquest after the crash Oxfordshire coroner Darren Salter said he would write to Highways England and ask it to investigate installing fog sensors.
Former paramedic Graham White, from Kingham, said problems with fog there were known many years ago when he started training.
He added: "It was known before the motorway opened, that certainly on the section running down to the River Cherwell and the canal, fog would be a problem.
"We're coming up to that same time of year again… when we're going to get early morning mist and fog over the rivers.
"I would've said get [the sensor] up… the costs of doing it is going to be way less than the costs of someone dying."
A Highways England spokesperson said: "We are committed to installing a new fog sensor on the M40 near junction 9, which we believe will improve driver safety."
The work is expected to take place during the 2017/2018 financial year.
Former Manchester United Under-21 boss Joyce was sacked on Monday after only four months in charge of the Latics.
Warnock's side are currently 13th in the Championship but were a point above the drop zone, and Wigan, in 21st when Joyce took charge.
"No disrespect but when Wigan appointed him, I was delighted," Warnock said.
He added to BBC Radio Wales Sport: "I didn't think they were going to be a threat to us.
"I like Warren but you can't just put someone into the Championship who's never been there - it's nothing like youth football."
Warnock recently signed a contract extension to stay as Bluebirds' manager until the end of 2017-18, but is confident about his position because of a lack of managerial talent elsewhere.
"I'm in a unique situation for a manager because I'm not bothered if I get the sack - they can sack me tomorrow if they want," he said.
"If I want another job, I can get another job. That's not being conceited, I just don't see many good managers around.
"There used to be hundreds, you could name them all but the Championship is not like any other league."

Please give a summary of the document below. | Pte Gavin Williams, 22, of Hengoed, Caerphilly county, was made to do the intensive exercise as an informal punishment.
He collapsed at Lucknow Barracks, Wiltshire, on one of the hottest days of 2006 and later died.
A heat expert said Pte Williams's heat illness symptoms were not recognised.
The inquest has previously heard Pte Williams was ordered to march and do intensive exercise in a gym as punishment for drunken behaviour and being absent without leave.
Ecstasy was found in his bloodstream when he died and he was likely to have been dehydrated before the "beasting", the hearing has been told.
Heat expert Dr Daniel Roiz De Sa said the hot weather risk level on the day Pte Williams died was high, and guidance suggested he should not have been exercising for more than one hour in a 90 minute period.
Previous witnesses disputed how long he was made to exercise, with some suggesting it was for over an hour.
Dr Roiz De Sa told the coroner, Judge Alan Large, there was "no clear assessment of the risk that the environment would have on the exercise of an individual" that day.
The hearing was told a doctor who treated Pte Williams on the day he died had already treated another soldier for heat related illness earlier in the day.
But no information was given to other staff to warn them of the potential risk the hot conditions might have.
Yusef Khalifa, 52, of Old Colwyn, Gwynedd, said he had drunk two bottles of wine, Llandudno magistrates heard.
He admitted being in charge of a "mechanically-propelled vehicle" when three times the drink-drive limit and having a folding knife.
He was banned from driving a vehicle for six months.
A six-month community order was also imposed, along with a fine and costs totalling £385.
Police Scotland confirmed it had received a report which is understood to be linked to the SNP's Glasgow regional association.
Ms McGarry withdrew from the party whip last November after a first police investigation was launched.
She denies any wrongdoing and her solicitor said she would co-operate with any inquiry.
Ms McGarry was elected an SNP MP for the seat of Glasgow East in May 2015, but she currently sits at Westminster as an independent
The first police investigation was set up to look at allegations of missing donations from Women for Independence, the pro-Scottish independence group the politician founded.
The second investigation is reportedly related to funds said to be missing from the SNP's Glasgow regional association's accounts. Ms McGarry was a one-time convenor of that association.
Police Scotland spokeswoman said: "We can confirm that police have received a report and inquiries are continuing."
Ms McGarry is thought to be on honeymoon after she got married at the weekend.
The MP's solicitor Aamer Anwar said: "I understand that there is a police inquiry but no criminality has been established. Therefore it would be inappropriate to comment further.
"Ms McGarry will co-operate with any inquiry."

Can you summarize the following information? | Suhaib Mohammed, 19, was wounded at a house in Milton Keynes but died later in hospital.
Mohamed Noor, 33, of Radworthy, and Albert Prempeh, 35, of Langland Road, deny murder.
A jury at Luton Crown Court heard Mr Noor fired the revolver while Mr Prempeh acted as a lookout.
Prosecutor Justin Rouse told the court the victim was attacked at a house in Osprey Close, Eagleston, on 13 September.
He said Mr Noor entered the garden of the house and approached an open ground floor window.
"He was holding a revolver and reached through the window. He pulled the trigger two or three times. The gun clicked, but it did not discharge.
"He continued pulling the trigger and the gun fired," he said.
Mr Rouse added the shooting was carried out as part of a "murderous plan" acted out either in revenge, or in an attempt to steal money believed to be in the property.
The court heard Mr Noor told police the deceased and another man had attempted to rob him three weeks earlier, injuring him in the process.
Mr Prempeh claimed he only went with Mr Noor to the house because he was scared after being hit by his co-defendant earlier in the night, jurors were told.

Provide a concise overview of the following information. | Ian Shanks, a banker who worked with the club to manage its debt, told the High Court in Glasgow that Mr Whyte said he "intended" to put cash into the club.
Mr Whyte is accused of a fraudulent acquisition of Rangers.
He denies a charge of fraud and another under the Companies Act.
An email was read to the court from March 2011 in which Mr Shanks told his boss at Lloyds Banking Group that he did not want the issue of Mr Whyte's intent to be a "stumbling block" to any agreement.
Mr Shanks said in the email: "If Craig doesn't inject the cash he will be hounded by the fans and not (Sir David) Murray."
In 2011, in the months before the takeover, the club owed Lloyds Banking Group about £23m.
Mr Shanks, a relationship director within Lloyds, said the debt had reduced by about £10m since 2009 as the bank worked to "reduce its exposure" with both Rangers and the Murray Group.
Defence QC Donald Findlay suggested it was known there were no guarantees over future spending during the takeover, and that the situation was simply "I will if I can".
The witness agreed.
Letters sent between then-Rangers chief executive Martin Bain and Mr Shanks were also read in court in which Mr Bain discussed the prospect of "reviewing the bank's representation on (Rangers') board", referring to Murray Group directors Mike McGill and Donald Muir.
Mr Shanks said the two men were installed by the major shareholder, Murray Group, as part of a condition with the bank but that Lloyds was not controlling the club.
Referring to the letter, Mr Findlay said they were "clearly seen as the bank's men".
Mr Shanks replied: "That's his view."
The court heard that both Mr McGill and Mr Muir were "incentivised" to sell the club.
Asked who was in charge of the sale of Rangers, Mr Shanks said: "The Murray Group. There was strong involvement from the bank to get our debt repaid."
Other email discussions between Mr Shanks and colleagues were read which discussed the potential of removing banking facilities to Rangers and changing the board in the run-up to the May 2011 takeover.
Mr Findlay asked if this was intended to threaten and put pressure on the board to approve the deal.
Mr Shanks replied: "Leverage", adding that it was "negotiation tactics".
Earlier, the witness had denied applying pressure over the sale.
Mr Shanks said he first became aware of Whyte's offer for the club at the end of 2010.
When asked by Advocate Depute Alex Prentice QC if there was "something of substance" to the bid, the witness agreed.
He said he attended a meeting with Whyte's representatives and was later sent details of a bid that agreed to pay off an £18m loan to Lloyds and restructure other debt.
The bid was later revised twice, but Mr Shanks said the bank was "happy with the final bid, in the context of everything".
Prosecutors allege Whyte pretended to Sir David Murray, and others, that funds were available to make all required payments to acquire a "controlling and majority stake" in the club.
The Crown alleges Whyte had only £4m available from two sources at the time but took out a £24m loan from Ticketus against three years of future season ticket sales.
The court has heard the sale was eventually made to Whyte for £1 but came with obligations to pay an £18m bank debt, a £2.8m "small tax case" bill, £1.7m for stadium repairs, £5m for players and £5m in working capital.
The second charge under the Companies Act centres on the £18m payment between Mr Whyte's Wavetower company and Rangers to clear a bank debt.
The trial before eight men and seven women continues on Wednesday. | Former Rangers owner Craig Whyte did not guarantee to invest in the club in the lead-up to his takeover, his fraud trial has heard. |
Can you summarize the given article? | It was the truth that the last ombudsman failed to discover in an earlier investigation five years ago.
This new document laid bare the failings that allowed their loved ones to be murdered.
And the actions which ensured that the loyalist gang who killed them were able to escape prosecution.
They are not the first relatives in Northern Ireland to have to fight to uncover what, in their hearts, they already knew.
Over the past decade, ombudsman reports, fresh investigations and inquests have all succeeded in confirming the worst fears of families in many attacks.
And make no mistake, there are more murky secrets to be uncovered about the Troubles.
The long-awaited Stakeknife investigation is about to begin.
It will examine the actions of the man alleged to be one of the most important state agents from the brutal years of violence in Northern Ireland - and perhaps the most murderous.
It has been claimed that the informant Freddie Scappaticci - known as Stakeknife - was involved in dozens of IRA killings.
However, it is thought he was protected from prosecution because of the valuable information he was providing to the security forces and security services.
Mr Scappacticci, originally from west Belfast, has denied the allegations.
In the case of Loughinisland, Police Ombudsman Dr Michael Maguire was damning about the approach of the Royal Ulster Constabulary's Special Branch.
He said they had a "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" approach to informants.
In practical terms, officers turned a blind eye to their crimes in return for knowledge.
The government and the police have, in the past, pointed out that lives were saved by those who did the dangerous work of infiltrating paramilitary organisations.
But what was the wider cost?
The phrase "getting away with murder" rarely felt more appropriate.
Yet families continue to push to know all they can, even though it will inevitably mean revelations that cause pain and reawaken grief.
The uncomfortable truths of policing and paramilitaries also have a danger of raising old divisions.
That is why Stormont is being pushed to find some sort of process that is able to deal with the long legacy of hurt.
Too often, what happened during decades of chaos in Northern Ireland is referred to, all too simply, as 'the past'.
However, properly addressing the many issues surrounding that past is anything but simple.
Lucy Haughey, winner of Channel 4's Come Dine With Me, bombarded the ex-girlfriend of her then partner with threatening for posts almost a year.
Haughey, 36, was due to be sentenced at Glasgow Sheriff but this was delayed after the court heard some messages were still online.
The sheriff said Haughey or her internet provider should remove them.
Haughey, who won £1,000 in an episode of the TV show broadcast in January, had previously admitted cyber stalking Sharon Low between June 2015 and May 2016.
The two women had never met but Haughey, from Crosshill, Glasgow, repeatedly sent messages to Ms Low.
Ms Low also received a text message which stated: "I know your secrets, all of them, leave us alone or it's all out there."
Haughey also admitted making a phone call to Ms Low's mother in which she "ranted" about her daughter, and calling Miss Low at her work.
Ms Low was left feeling "terrified and humiliated".
A defence lawyer told the earlier hearing Haughey was in an abusive relationship at the time and had been manipulated into making contact with Ms Low.
Haughey had been warned she may face jail at a sentencing hearing on Wednesday - but the case was continued after Sheriff Linda Ruxton heard there were still abusive messages about the victim on social media.
She told Haughey: "I want all abusive posts to be removed in some way from social media to give the complainer more peace of mind."
The sheriff told the Crown to make inquiries about how this could be achieved by either Haughey or the internet provider. | For the families of the men killed in Loughinisland, the findings of the Police Ombudsman were, in their words, "bittersweet".

Referee Mark Halsey confirmed he saw two further incidents in the 71st and 91st minutes, also involving Fellaini and Shawcross, neither of which he deemed to be violent conduct.
Everton manager David Moyes publicly criticised his player's behaviour.
"It was a terrible thing to do and I expect him [Fellaini] to be punished," Moyes said in his post-match interview.

"It is good to see the lad has apologised for his actions," Taylor said. "It is disappointing. He has had a great season and obviously it is an aberration.

What is the summary of the given information? | Police said the 30-year-old been walking on the northbound carriageway of the road after his own car had been involved in a crash.
He was pronounced dead at the scene of the incident, which took place near the Newhouse Interchange at about 18:20 on Monday.
Police said they wanted to hear from witnesses to the incident, or the earlier crash involving the man's car.
The 30-year-old had been driving a black Suzuki Liana north on the A78 when his car was involved in what police described as a minor single-vehicle crash.
It came to rest on the nearside verge of the northbound carriageway.
He was walking on the carriageway when he was struck by a Volkswagen Golf. Police said the driver of the other car was uninjured.
Sgt Iain Pittams said: "The road would have been relatively busy around the time of the incident and inquiries are continuing to establish the exact circumstances of what happened."
He urged any witnesses who saw the man being struck by the Volkswagen Golf to get in touch.
"I would like to speak to anyone who saw a black Suzuki Liana car driving northbound on the A78 around the time of the incident," he added.
"I would also like to speak to anyone who may have seen the initial crash or the man walking on the carriageway prior to being struck."
Satao II, a 50-year-old so-called "giant tusker" was found dead near the Tsavo National Park border.
Conservationists at the park believe he may have been killed be a poison arrow, although the cause of death has not yet been confirmed.
Satao was named after another giant tusker killed by poachers in 2014.
There are now fewer than 30 African "big tuskers" - adult bulls with ivory large enough to brush the ground - in the world.
"I am pretty gutted really," Richard Moller, head of the Tsavo Trust, told AFP.
"This particular elephant was one that was very approachable, one of those easy old boys to find. Many are the others are much more difficult to see.
"He has been through lots of droughts and probably other attempts at poaching."
A team from the park and Kenyan Wildlife Service recovered the animal's enormous ivory tusks intact, before poachers could claim them, the park said.
One weighed 51.5kg, (113.5lbs) and the other 50.5kg.
His carcass was discovered in January during routine aerial surveillance of the 25,000 sq km national park, but was only announced Monday.
After the discovery, the park's teams tracked an "elephant poaching gang" deep into the park, and two poachers were arrested.
Among the items found with the poachers were three bows and 12 poisoned arrows, as well as an AK47 rifle, the park said.
"Although this is a very sad loss in everyway, we can take some positive from this in that Satao's carcass was indeed found with the ivory intact, and recovered before it could fall into the wrong hands and further fuel the illegal ivory market," the Tsavo Trust said.
"More importantly, this poaching gang... has been broken for ever." | A man has died after being struck by a car on the A78 in Irvine.

The Foreign Office said it was in contact with authorities in Trinidad following the death of a UK national.
Local media reports suggest Mr St John was attacked after he had stopped his car to pick up two friends, and was shot as he drove away after they had been robbed.
Donovan Miller, programme manager for the Chris Gayle Foundation, said: "I'm really finding it hard to come to terms with it, how someone could do something like that to such a lovely person."

Can you provide an overview of this section? | The one-off payment was given to event organisers DF Concerts to help the music festival re-locate from its Kinross venue to Strathallan Castle.
A Scottish government spokeswoman said Ms Hyslop was "looking forward" to giving evidence.
Scottish Labour has called for a full statement to Parliament.
The row about the money centres on a meeting former SNP adviser Jennifer Dempsie set up between Ms Hyslop and DF Concerts.
Ms Dempsie was working on a contract for DF Concerts as a festival project manager at the time of the meeting, which took place ahead of the grant being awarded.
A Scottish government spokeswoman said: "Culture Secretary Fiona Hyslop looks forward to giving evidence to the Education and Culture Committee further to the full answer provided to Parliament on August 14, 2015.
"T in the Park is one of Scotland's most popular and successful cultural events, generating £15.4m for the economy last year and supporting tourism and jobs."
Scottish Labour have questioned why money was given to such a successful company as DF concerts.
The party's business manager James Kelly said: "The questions around this deal are much bigger than the political ambitions of a former SNP adviser.
"I welcome that the culture minister is to face a Holyrood committee but there should be a statement to the full chamber.
"T in the Park is a successful business, at a time when our public services are facing unprecedented cuts from Holyrood gifting £150,000 in taxpayer cash seems very hard to justify."
Conservative culture spokeswoman Liz Smith said it was "imperative that the Culture Secretary puts the full facts on the table".
She added: "For far too long, the funding of T in the Park has been clouded in mystery with the inevitable result that the public felt the Scottish government had something to hide.
"Before any decision is made about T in the Park 2016, everyone needs a categorical assurance that there will be full transparency over the decision-making process which was so absent for T in the Park 2015."
Liberal Democrat MSP Liam McArthur, a committee member, said: "It is still unclear as to why the Scottish government granted a profitable company £150,000 in state aid for an event that had already taken place.
"Statements from the Culture Secretary so far have told us next to nothing, so I welcome the fact that the Education Committee has agreed to take action."

What is the summary of the given information? | A planning application for Callow's Yard in Castletown was submitted by private developers in March.
The proposals would involve amendments to both residential and retail premises in the centre of the town.
Callow's Yard in Castletown, the former capital of the island, opened in 2009 to help rejuvenate the historic town.
Originally a shopping complex and apartments, the private project cost in the region of £20m.
Current facilities include a bar, restaurant, coffee shop, newsagent, clothing outlets and a conference area.
MHK Graham Cregeen said: "This is an important site and obviously the people of Castletown are now keen to see the next step for Callow's Yard.
"I would urge all Castletown residents to get further information on the plans - they will be able to ask questions and get immediate feedback from the developers."
The plans will go on display in Arbory Street, Castletown on 12 April, between 10:00 and 14:00 (BST).
"I think there is currently a lack of understanding about what is being proposed so this event will help clarify some of those issues," continued Mr Cregeen. | Redevelopment plans for a high profile site in the south of the Isle of Man will go on public display at the weekend, said the Manx government. |

Zanzibar's electoral commission chief annulled Sunday's poll, alleging it was marred by rigging.
The opposition says the vote on the semi-autonomous Tanzanian archipelago was cancelled as it had won.
On Wednesday, the main challenger in the national presidential election, Edward Lowassa, said the problems in Zanzibar could be mirrored across the country.
The national electoral commission rejected his call for the entire election to be annulled.
The nationwide general elections have been the most tightly contested since independence in 1961.
Four opposition parties united to form the Ukawa coalition, hoping to end the governing CCM party's 54-year rule.
However, partial results show Mr Lowassa is trailing CCM presidential candidate John Magufuli.
Mr Magufuli has 59.2% of the vote compared with Mr Lowassa's 39.6% after results from 195 of Tanzania's 264 constituencies were announced by the national electoral commission, the AFP news agency reports.
Elections in Tanzania tend to be peaceful, except in Zanzibar where previous polls have been marred by violence following disputed results.
The BBC's Sammy Awami in Zanzibar while there is confusion about the announcement by Zanzibar Electoral Commission (Zec), it remains calm.
In a statement, the UK embassy in Tanzania also expressed concern about the scrapping of Zanzibar's elections.
"We note that all the international observers were impressed by the quality of the electoral process they witnessed. We call on Zec to resume the results tabulation process without delay," said the statement.

Head of state: The President of France
President of government: Philippe Germain
Philippe Germain, of the anti-independence Caledonia Together party, was elected head of the territory's autonomous government in April 2015, ending a four-month political crisis.
The deadlock began after the previous executive led by Cynthia Lygeard collapsed in December 2014 over differences within the 11-member dominant anti-independence majority.
For months after, neither Mr Germain nor Ms Lygeard, from the rival anti-independence Front for Unity party, were able to win enough votes to be elected, until the pro-independence minority agreed to choose between them.
New Caledonia has a power-sharing executive elected by the territory's Congress, which ensures that all parties on it are represented in proportion to their number of seats in Congress.
After being elected, the executive then chooses its president from among its members.

What is the summary of the document provided? | The North Wales Police Authority wants to create "hubs" at Caernarfon, Llangefni, Dolgellau and Porthmadog.
Opponents of the plan are questioning the locations, which they claim could lead to a lack of 999 emergency cover.
A police authority spokesman said officers would be "forward deployed" to "hotspots" to respond to calls.
Nigel Pickavance, from the People of Bangor Community Group, said the university city should have more not fewer police officers.
He said he was "shocked to hear by chance" that under the plans the city would not have its own hub, but would be covered from Caernarfon, nine miles (14km) away, instead.
There had also been a "lack of publicity" which meant there was very little time for the public to get their responses in before this Thursday's deadline, he added.
"I think what they've done is a bit sly, as the details are on their website, but how many people go and read that," he said.
"This needs to be challenged, and I've set up a Facebook page to try and get as many people as possible to e-mail their views in," he added.
Mr Pickavance said he thought the locations of the new hubs had been chosen "geographically, not in terms of population, which would have been fairer".
Gwynedd council will discuss the issue on the Lleyn peninsula in a meeting of the council board on Tuesday.
A report before the board notes that councillors had expressed "doubts" that the police could reach any incident on the Lleyn peninsula within 30 minutes, especially during busy times. It said a hub at Pwllheli was needed.
Cuts could adversely affect policing, and there was a need to recognise the "different needs of urban and rural areas, especially where there are substantial changes in population at various times of the year".
Council chief executive Harry Thomas concluded that the police, as with all other public bodies, were having to cope with fewer resources.
"We should all aim at these times to try to operate creatively to protect essential service, and as noted in the report there is concern in the light of the rural nature of the county," he said.
The police authority's chief executive, Tal Michael, said it was important to recognise that the response hub" location would only be where officers report for duty.
"Officers will be 'forward deployed' to hotspots so that they are ready and waiting to respond to calls," he said.
"An important element will be the change in shift patterns for neighbourhood officers, so that some of them are always available at peak times, and will be able to response to calls in their local area," he added.
Mr Michael added that the document "does not imply other police stations will close".
Some "cashable efficiencies" might be found by selling off some police estate and "changing how we deliver a service to some of our public", he said.
But there will be no details available until after a structural review is undertaken.
"If police stations do close in the future, then full consideration will have been given to providing a policing service in that area," he added. | Money-saving plans to reorganise North Wales Police response units have raised concerns in Bangor and on the Lleyn peninsula. |

Ash Hunter headed in Victor Nirennold's cross to level for the hosts, before Marcus Nilsson flicked in Jimmy Ryan's free-kick to give Fleetwood the lead.
However, Nick Haughton was sent off for two yellow cards, before Adams netted after Matt Flynn was fouled in the box.
There was a lengthy delay before Adams took his spot-kick after Maxwell was struck by an object thrown from the crowd and required treatment to a facial cut, just above his eye.
Fleetwood Town manager Steven Pressley told BBC Radio Lancashire:
"We were faced with every type of adversity there could have been, We had to patch up a back four that was already patched up and then we lost a further player,

"In the light of that, my players did magnificently. It wasn't an inspiring performance in terms of football, but we showed so much determination.

Mr Brown has criticised President Trump for his executive order overturning many climate change policies introduced by President Obama.
Ms Sturgeon and Mr Brown also discussed the importance of offshore wind in tackling climate change and considered how the two governments could share knowledge and best practice in developing this technology.
The Scottish government committed to pressing ahead with plans to both set and deliver ambitious domestic measures to reduce carbon emissions and provide leadership and example in the spirit of the MoU and the historic Paris Agreement.
Following the meeting, the first minister said: "Scotland is making huge progress in delivering our climate change ambitions, but we are not complacent and there is still much to achieve.
"Today's meeting strengthened our relationship with the government of California and I'm confident we can work together to achieve the targets set out by the Under2 MoU.
"We have also offered to help the Under2 Coalition, representing over one billion people, to prepare for a major summit in 2018 which will bring together the public and private sectors, alongside NGOs, to build support and action aimed at persuading national governments to increase their efforts to tackle climate change, in what will be an important year for taking stock against progress of the Paris Agreement."
WWF's US senior vice president of climate change and energy, Lou Leonard, said: "It is good to see climate action high on the agenda of Scotland's first minister on her trip to the United States. This is a strong reminder that climate change is a priority for our allies around the world.
"Over the years, California and Scotland have inspired the world by setting bold targets and investing in a clean economy. Now both governments are looking to collectively up their game.

Please summarize the given passage. | On Wednesday, Salazar denied at length that he had violated anti-doping rules.
"As someone I've worked with for many years, I feel I have to believe in Alberto and the evidence he has provided," said distance runner Farah.
"Based on that evidence, I'll continue to work with him and hope now that I can focus on what I do best - training hard to win medals for my country."
UK Athletics chief executive Niels de Vos said: "British Athletics notes and respects Mo Farah's decision to continue his coaching relationship with Alberto Salazar.
'The Salazar response: What questions remain?' Read more from BBC Scotland's Mark Daly.
"As is normal at this time of the year Mo is currently training at altitude under the guidance of British Athletics as he prepares for the August defence of his world titles in Beijing.
"As has always been the case, British Athletics will continue to take responsibility for all nutritional, medical and sport science elements of Mo Farah's training regime."
UK Athletics has ordered an independent review into the matter, which will conclude in early August.
There is no suggestion that world and Olympic 5,000m and 10,000m champion Farah, who is part of the 56-year-old's Nike Oregon Project training operation, has broken any rules.
Farah's American training partner Galen Rupp said earlier he was backing Salazar "100%" despite allegations the coach practised doping techniques on him as a teenager.
Rupp, the 2012 Olympic 10,000m silver medallist behind Farah, spoke after winning his seventh consecutive United States title over the distance on Thursday, which secured his place at the World Championships in Beijing in August.
Media playback is not supported on this device
The 29-year-old said he thought "the truth would prevail", adding it had been "difficult to focus" following allegations - made in a BBC documentary in collaboration with US journalism website ProPublica - that Salazar violated various anti-doping rules and used testosterone medication on a 16-year-old Rupp in 2002.
The BBC understands Salazar is being investigated by the US Anti-Doping Agency (Usada) to determine whether anti-doping rules may have been violated.
Both Salazar and Rupp deny all the allegations.
On Wednesday, Salazar issued a 12,000-word rebuttal, backed by emails and other documents, saying he "will never permit doping" at his NOP training base.
Salazar's former assistant, Steve Magness, said the American coach's lengthy response to claims in the BBC investigation "reeks of desperation".
Magness' allegation of being in Salazar's office when he was handed a report showing Rupp was on "testosterone medication" was one of several key claims made in the BBC documentary.
Media playback is not supported on this device
In Salazar's denial he said Magness' contract was terminated because he "proved to be a poor coach who had difficulty building rapport with world-class athletes".
Magness described Salazar's rebuttal as "disheartening" and "saddening".
"I know what happens to whistleblowers, I know they get attacked," Magness told the BBC.
Salazar admitted claims he used a testosterone gel on his sons to see how much would trigger a positive test, but said this was an experiment to combat "sabotage", set up by a doctor, Jeffrey Brown.
But Brown told ProPublica he "absolutely" was not involved in any experiment and that he advised Salazar on a "hypothetical situation".
High-profile US distance runners and former NOP athletes Kara and Adam Goucher also made claims about Salazar's alleged abuse of Therapeutic Use Exemptions (TUEs) in 2007 and 2011.
Kara Goucher said: "Unfortunately, Alberto's false statements and one-sided, partial stories don't tell the truth. Adam and I went to Usada in February 2013 when we had concerns about what we had experienced at the Oregon Project."

Can you provide a summary of this content? | Tornado, the newest steam locomotive in Britain, pulled 12 Northern services over three days from 14 -16 February.
The company described the event as "a remarkable success" and has not ruled out running similar services again.
It was part of celebrations to mark the upcoming reopening of the line after landslides closed a long stretch.
Paul Barnfield, Northern Rail regional director, said: "During the three days just over 5,500 people travelled on the steam services and it was great to see so many entering into the spirit of the celebration.
"This was the first timetabled steam service in England for almost 50 years and to be able to bring Tornado to such an iconic and visually stunning line, as a way of saying thank you, was a genuine pleasure."
Settle-Carlisle Railway
Graeme Bunker, of the Darlington-based A1 Steam Locomotive Trust, which built Tornado, said: "To see the many thousands who travelled and many thousands more enjoying the event at the line side made the endeavour very worthwhile and delivered a welcome boost to the local community after recent challenges.
"I am very proud of my team for their part in ensuring the services ran so successfully."
Douglas Hodgins, of the Friends of Settle to Carlisle Line, added: "There must be lessons here about the demand for steam, scenery and rail travel in general. It was the perfect curtain-raiser for the reopening of the line on 31 March."
It took 18 years for the trust to build the £3m Tornado 60163, which can achieve speeds of 75mph (120km/h). It was completed in 2008.
The Appleby to Carlisle stretch of line closed in February 2016 after a 500,000-tonne landslip at Armathwaite.
Paul Nuttall told Sky News a peerage would be a "fitting tribute to the man who gave us Brexit".
Mr Farage stood down after the EU referendum but returned as interim head after his replacement Diane James quit.
The Sunday Times reports the two other party leadership favourites would also back a peerage for Mr Farage.
According to the paper, Raheem Kassam and Suzanne Evans have both said they would like to see him on the red benches in the upper house of Parliament.
Ms Evans is quoted in the Sunday Times as saying: "If Nigel wants a seat in the House of Lords, I will campaign like stink for that."
Mr Farage, who failed seven times to be elected as an MP, led UKIP for a decade.
He stood down on 4 July saying his "political ambition has been achieved" with the UK having voted to leave the EU, but returned when Ms James resigned two months later.
Mr Nuttall says he hoped Prime Minister Theresa May would adopt a different approach from that of her predecessor when it came to offering peerages to UKIP.
UKIP currently has three representatives in the Lords, two defectors from the Conservatives and the other previously an independent Conservative.
Mr Farage should be recognised for his role in the Brexit vote, said Mr Nuttall, the MEP for North West England and former UKIP chairman,
"It would be a great idea. UKIP should have been given more peerages. David Cameron obviously had a visceral hatred of us, and we were never awarded one.
"Maybe now with Theresa May in the seat, we may well get peerages, and if we do get peerages then Nigel Farage should be the first on the list."
Mr Nuttall was also questioned about policy issues during his interview with Sky's Dermot Murnaghan.
He said there needed to be better checks on asylum seekers to ensure they were not jihadis or economic migrants.
On climate change he said "far more research" needs to be done before measures "which harm our economy" are adopted.
Mr Nuttall confirmed he was in favour of capital punishment for child killers and would "probably" support a reduction of the abortion limit from 24 to 12 weeks, but neither would be automatically adopted as policies by UKIP.
On the NHS, he said he was in favour of an overall increase in spending to employ more doctors and nurses but in other areas - such as procurement of drugs - it should be "streamlined" with more free market involvement. | More than 5,000 people travelled on the first timetabled steam train service on the Settle to Carlisle railway line in 50 years, Northern Rail has said.

Speaking to BBC Radio York, he said: "The stand out regret for me, because I've been heavily involved, is Claudia Lawrence.
"I would dearly love to bring some resolution for the Lawrence family to that case and I know many of my colleagues feel exactly the same.
"When I think about finishing my career that will frustrate me intensely that we haven't been able to resolve that and bring justice to her family.
"It does tend to gnaw at you after a few years, because I think surely we must be able to get there.
"I hope one day the people who follow in our footsteps manage to achieve what we didn't achieve."
In January the force said active investigation of the case was being brought to an end.
Nine individuals have been arrested or interviewed in connection with the case since a review began in 2013, but no charges have been brought. The case remains open.
Mr Madgwick joined North Yorkshire Police in 1988 and rose through the ranks from PC to Deputy Chief Constable and had two stints as Acting Chief Constable.
In 2004 he was part of the team responsible for hunting down killer Mark Hobson, who went on the run after murdering four people.

Three flood warnings are in place for the Lower Dee Valley in Wrexham, Abergwili in Carmarthenshire and Pontargothi and Pontynyswen in Carmarthenshire.
On Wednesday, Storm Frank brought heavy rain and winds of up to 75mph (120km/h), leading to more than 1,400 properties losing power across south Wales.

MtGox reported in February that it may have lost nearly $500m (£300m) worth of the virtual currency and subsequently filed for bankruptcy protection in Japan and the US.
It later said it had "found" about a quarter of the missing sum.
A US judge ordered Mr Karpeles to travel from Japan to appear in front of the US Department of Treasury's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network to answer questions about the affair.
But a court filing by MtGox's lawyers said the France-born chief executive - who has not been charged with any crime - would not comply.
"Mr Karpeles is now in the process of obtaining counsel to represent him with respect to the FinCen subpoena," it said.
"Until such time as counsel is retained and has an opportunity to 'get up to speed' and advise Mr Karpeles, he is not willing to travel to the US."
The lawyers also asked the court to delay Mr Karpeles' deposition until 5 May, but added that they could not guarantee he would attend on that date either.

Here are five of the things you may have missed.
When Craig Mackail-Smith scored his 99th Peterborough goal in the League One play-off final against Huddersfield at Old Trafford on 29 May 2011 to help secure promotion, he might not have expected the century to arrive nearly six years later.
He finally hit that mark on Saturday, but unfortunately for Posh fans, the 33-year-old's 100th goal could not provide three points at home to Oxford, with his 91st-minute effort a mere consolation in a 2-1 defeat.
It has been quite the journey for the Scotland international in the 2,113 days between those two goals, taking in spells with Brighton, Luton, and a brief and a previous goalless loan stay with Posh in 2014.
With defeat leaving Peterborough eight points outside the play-off places with just nine games left to play, manager Grant McCann perhaps understandably did not enjoy the moment as much as he might have in more positive circumstances.
"He should have had a hat-trick today - Craig will probably tell you that himself," he told BBC Radio Cambridge.
"I'm pleased he got the goal. Now he can forget about that and just concentrate on scoring goals again.
"Up until that point, he slashed at a couple of chances - and the one [he scored] he probably didn't mean, [although] he'll probably say he did, it was like a cross across the box, but they're the ones you need to get you up and running."
Promotion-chasing Scunthorpe were cruising to victory at Gillingham in League One, until former Iron midfielder Josh Wright spoiled their day with a remarkable display of nerve and composure.
Scunthorpe were 2-0 up with less than 15 minutes to go, before Wright stepped up to place the first of three penalties into the bottom right-hand corner.
Two more spot-kicks followed, with Wright slotting the second into the bottom left-hand corner, and, after drawing a foul inside the box, he picked out the same spot again to complete a nine-minute hat-trick, and avenge a 5-0 thrashing at Scunthorpe back in August.
The 27-year-old was presented with a match ball for his efforts, but he was also shown his 10th yellow card of the season for his celebrations following his third goal, meaning he will now serve a two-game ban.
"I promise you now, I didn't have any worries, because he's in good form and he's scoring goals for fun," manager Ady Pennock told BBC Radio Kent.
"I just knew that he was going to score all three because he's taken them before, and he practices in training as well.
"I just thought the ruling of him getting a yellow card after you score a hat-trick in the atmosphere that we had was very, very harsh."
Leeds United goalkeeper Rob Green turned 37 in January, but showed he is still going strong in his 600th league appearance.
The former England international celebrated reaching the milestone with his 164th clean sheet in the league, this one against former club QPR at Elland Road.
And there is no chance Green will be hanging up his boots any time soon.
"I feel good, I feel fit and I want to carry on playing," he told BBC Radio Leeds.
"I want to play games, I don't want to sit around and chill out for the rest of my career and pick up easy money doing not a lot.
"I want to be part of something that's interesting and exciting and this season's proving to be that."
Unfortunately for Green, his efforts did not result in three points for Leeds, with a goalless draw leaving them 11 points outside the Championship's automatic promotion places.
It has been an eventful 12 months for Rafael Benitez, who was unable to keep Newcastle in the Premier League last season, but has led them to the top of the Championship table.
Sadly for the Spaniard, he was unable to celebrate his first anniversary as Magpies manager with a win, as they fell to a 3-1 defeat by Fulham at St James' Park, with 16-year-old Ryan Sessegnon on the scoresheet twice for the Cottagers.
Newcastle remain top of the Championship, but level on points with second-placed Brighton - and only six points clear of Huddersfield, who have a game in hand.
"Obviously, I'm really disappointed because we knew that we needed to win to stay there with some points advantage and we didn't do it," Benitez told BBC Radio Newcastle.
"We knew that was a good team and we couldn't make mistakes, and we made mistakes and we paid for that."
There was plenty more than local bragging rights at stake as Stevenage made the 15-mile journey to face Luton Town.
Boro earned their first-ever home win over the Hatters in August, but were two points behind their play-off rivals before kick-off.
Although prolific striker Matt Godden could not add to his tally, Darren Sarll's side were still able to come out on top and complete the double, with Luke Wilkinson and Ben Kennedy getting the goals in a 2-0 win.
There might yet be a chance for Luton to have the last laugh, as with both sides sitting comfortably in the play-off places, the pair could be battling it out once again for a place in League One in a couple of months' time. | A near six-year wait for a milestone goal was ended and a nine-minute hat-trick of penalties were scored on another busy Saturday of English Football League action. |
Give a brief summary of the following article. | The Welsh Rugby Union (WRU) want to take over the club, Rodney Parade ground and Newport Gwent Dragons.
The WRU and Dragons boards have approved the deal which must be passed by 75% of Newport RFC shareholders.
The new provisions include opening a club museum and keeping profits from bar sales on match days.
Dragons chief executive Stuart Davies has described the vote as a "hugely important moment in the history of Newport RFC" and warned a no vote could lead to liquidation for the club and region and the end of 140 years of rugby at Rodney Parade.
A statement said a "supplementary circular" had been issued to shareholders dealing with a number of issues raised in meetings since the date of the vote was announced on 12 April.
It follows a series of meetings where Newport RFC supporters have raised issues with Davies and WRU chief executive Martyn Phillips.

The statement added: "Your Board's unanimous view is that, unpalatable as it may be to some, the sale represents the only possibility of giving the Company a viable future where creditors and employees alike are protected and there is an ability for professional rugby to continue to be played at Rodney Parade."
Stuart Davies said: "I think the documentation and further discussions have been well received, and we thought it would be beneficial ahead of the vote to capture the main themes in an additional release.
"The extra provisions for Newport RFC are both welcome and significant, and hopefully provide a further assurance that Rodney Parade will continue to be a home for Newport in the event of a 'Yes' vote." | Newport RFC shareholders have been informed of "additional provisions" ahead of a vote to decide the club's future on 9 May. |
Please summarize the following text. | Gareth McGreevy said his family were watching television in their property between Crossgar and Ballynahinch, when there "was a massive explosion".
Damage was caused to the roof of the house and lights fell off a ceiling.
Elsewhere, Brenda Higgins said her family's property was also damaged at Katesbridge.
She said her son had a lucky escape as the bedroom he was staying in was struck by lightning 30 minutes after he left.
"I was in bed about five or ten minutes and heard this massive bang," she added.
"From the room, I could see the orange glow of a fire from the other bedroom - thankfully the rain put it out.
"My son was very lucky as he had been in the bedroom about half an hour beforehand.
"He had gone downstairs to watch TV when the lightning struck.
"I got the younger children out of the house when I realised part of the roof was off."
Ms Higgins praised the efforts of the fire and rescue service, but added that a number "of the plug sockets are now out of action" following the lightning strike.
"We've called the insurance company to assess the damage, but we'll not be in the house tonight," she said.
Mr McGreevy said the incident at his parents' house was "terrifying" and sounded "like a bomb had gone off".
"We were watching television waiting on the Rose of Tralee result and there was a massive explosion," he added.
"A phone flew off the wall, it was like a bomb had gone off.
"There was an eerie silence and you could smell the burning.
"We didn't realise that the roof had been struck until about 15 minutes later when we had a walk around and saw all the debris."
Mr McGreevy said there were three holes in the roof of the property.
He added that the roof tiles "were in smithereens" and had fallen on top of his sister's car.
He said that when they called the fire and rescue service they advised the family to leave the property "until they arrived to take a look at it".
"They were fantastic when they arrived," Mr McGreevy added.
"They looked around the house for any fire hazards and some worked to help cover the roof.
"Power has been restored. We've cleared the damage from outside, but now we just have to fix the house.
"It was terrifying. It was a surreal experience, something I'd hate for anyone to go through."
Speaking at the Live UK Summit 2014 panel last week, Isle Of Wight Festival organiser John Giddings said he was worried the industry wasn't nurturing enough new acts with the potential to headline festivals.
"We're not building headliners any more," he said, according to the website Virtual Festivals.
"And if boring acts like Ed Sheeran are the future then we're all screwed."
However, the singer was quick to point out that he had been asked to play at the Isle of Wight Festival in 2015 but had already been booked.
This summer's Isle Of Wight Festival was headlined by Biffy Clyro, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Kings Of Leon.
It's not yet known who will play at the event in 2015 but Giddings has ruled out rumours that Foo Fighters would be headlining.
When asked on Twitter if the band would be playing, he replied: "I wish I could they said no - sorry."

Summarize this article briefly. | But it serves as an important in-depth account of the state of the NHS in England.
The opening pages, inevitably, emphasise the positives - just as a corporate annual report would do. Half a million more patients seen in A&E than in the previous year, more than one million appointments booked or cancelled online, an increase in the NHS workforce, almost £1bn invested over five years in infrastructure to boost research.
But read on and the more difficult truths begin to emerge.
The report, covering the 2016-17 financial year, acknowledges that many of the key performance targets were missed, including the proportion of patients assessed or treated in A&E within four hours, which fell further below the 95% target to 89.1%.
There is understandable emphasis on the increasing pressures on the service with demand rising "above what would typically be expected from population growth and demographics alone" and the NHS delivering record levels of activity.
Looking for reasons for the drop in hospital performance, the report inevitably gets to the issue of delayed transfers of medically fit patients and the resulting bed shortages. The scale of the problem is underlined by the astonishing 24.5% increase in bed days lost because of these delayed transfers, to 2.3 million from 1.8 million the previous year. Hospitals were left full to capacity, sometimes unable to admit new patients.
It's noted that local authorities are working with health leaders in each area to reduce the numbers of patients held in hospital beds because there is no social care package available. There is a bold statement that "this will be an area of improvement in 2017-18".
The government has told NHS England that the delayed transfer number must be reduced to 3.5% of total bed occupancy by September. But it's hard to see much progress in that direction so far.
An interesting analysis by NHS Providers, due out soon, highlights the continuing scale of the delayed transfer problem. The organisation points out that community hospitals have a far higher proportion of beds occupied by people who are fit to leave (20.8% in February) than the larger acute hospitals (5.1%).
Delayed transfers can occur when an NHS community facility is unable to take patients from acute care or when either type of NHS hospital can't discharge patients because social care is not available.
The research also points out that in March this year there were more than three times as many delayed days due to "patients awaiting a care package in their own home" compared with April 2014.
NHS Providers concludes that the September target of 3.5% of beds occupied by patients whose transfer has been held up is looking highly unrealistic. That level has not been achieved for nearly three years and the latest quarterly current figure across all NHS hospitals in England was 5.6%.
The government has pumped £1bn extra into social care in England this year in part to help tackle the causes of the delayed discharges of patients from hospitals. One of the aims is to free up NHS beds to cope with rising emergency admissions and the backlog of routine operations.
But with local authorities pointing out that there are many other social care issues to tackle with the money, it's still not clear whether the new funding will make a significant dent in the delayed transfer numbers.
It's the height of summer and NHS leaders and politicians are preparing for their holidays. Their minds will not be on bed occupancy and social care.
The Department of Health report and the NHS Providers analysis will be parked up in office in-trays and inboxes. But when they return there will be some serious thinking to do as winter pressures begin to loom. | Little publicised or trailed, the Department of Health's annual report and accounts were quietly released this week - on the face of it, not everyone's cup of tea or preferred sun lounger reading. |

Give a brief summary of the following article. | It was an exclusive and often misunderstood, even unwelcome club.
Maybe I would catch up with someone and ride along for a few miles exchanging friendly conversation. Or perhaps there would be a subtle wave or a barely noticeable nod as a rider passed the other way.
We both knew the secret. Cycling is fun. It is healthy, sociable, challenging, invigorating, practical. Cycling is whatever you want it to be.
In the last few years though, the secret is out. Now I never leave my house, on foot, by bike or in the car without passing a seemingly ever increasing number of riders. All ages, genders, shapes and sizes.
Yes, there are the oft-derided "middle-aged-men in Lycra" spending their disposable on flashy steeds instead of sports cars and motorbikes. Sneered at by the old guard for having "all the gear, no idea".
Sniggered at by the public as they clatter across the pub in cycling shoes and skin-tight uniforms that reveal more miles and a fewer pints might be better.
But cycling is truly democratic. Cheap bike, flash bike? It does not matter. All day epic or short spin? Fast or slow? Serious or sociable? It does not matter.
Remember, cycling is whatever you want it to be. Young wannabe racers, middle-aged mothers, weather-beaten old-timers, they will all get a smile from me.
This weekend there will be 15,000 riders on those roads in south Wales, paying £50 for the privilege of spending five or six hours in the saddle.
At the same time 100 professionals from around Europe and the UK will cover a greater distance, 120 miles, in far less time.
All around the course the racers, the weekend warriors, the charity riders and those just revelling in riding on temporarily car-free routes will be cheered by thousands at the roadside.
Wales has been bitten by the bike bug.
So why? What has happened in the last decade? How is it that cycling has gone from the margins to the mainstream?
Back in the 1990s road cycling seemed almost dead in the UK. Bike shops kept themselves open on the back of the new mud and mountains craze.
It was the Noughties before road bikes became really sexy again, all space age titanium, cutting edge carbon and gadget enhanced.
In Wales there was a slow but steady rise in the number of people getting out on their bikes. Whenever Nicole Cooke grabbed more headlines, I would see a few new faces in the lanes.
Then in 2008 she grabbed the Olympic gold that began the avalanche. From the track to Le Tour, Britain was a successful biking nation.
It was 2012 that really got bums on saddles big time. Sir Bradley Wiggins won France's famous maillot jaune and the crowds flocked to London to see him become an Olympic champion too. And people rode the roads the racers raced.
Can you imagine just anyone who fancies it being allowed to go out and play rugby in the Millennium Stadium just before a Six Nations game? Or turn up and have a kickabout at Wembley or the Bernabeu whenever they feel like it?
With GPS tracking devices feeding social media sites, any ride any day of the week can be compared with friends and even to the performances of "the pros".
This is part of the appeal to the ever growing numbers of riders in recent years crossing the Channel to ride the routes of Europe's Grand Tours.
In 2004 council worker and bike enthusiast Lou Lusardi (the Italian heritage obvious in the name) decided there was an appetite in Wales for Italy's Gran Fondo, and the Dragon Ride was born.
The 12th edition was held over the hills flanking the Rhondda Valleys just last week with one of the 5,000 available places again like gold dust.
It has been joined on a packed Welsh calendar by many others including The Monster (Llangadog, July), The Daisy Chain (Builth Wells, May), The Devil's Challenge (Llanwrtyd Wells, July).
Which brings us back to Velothon Wales. An initial 12,000 places were made available at the end of last year, within weeks they were gone. The ride will be one of the world's largest with more entrants than the famous Etapes du Tour that follow stages of the Tour de France.
The chance to ride with so many others, on carefully marked traffic-free routes backed by feed stations and medical and mechanical back-up is obvious.
And next week there may be a few sore bodies that will not feel like getting back on the bike, but there will be many, many more inspired by what they see this weekend. I am certain the number of cyclists in Wales will grow even more.
Whether it is town or country, the roads and lanes of Wales are full of groups, pairs and individuals riding bikes for fun. No more long hours in the saddle for me with barely a like-minded soul with whom to exchange a knowing acknowledgment. The secret is out.
Intrigued and inspired in the 1970s by Eddy Merckx, Francesco Moser and most of all diminutive Belgian climber Lucien Van Impe, Steve James fell in love with continental cycling and pretty soon after bikes took over his life.
Over the past 40 years he has ridden on road, off-road and on tracks around the world. Besides countless hours watching others ride, he has commuted, raced, written a book on cycling and collected way too many bikes and cycling magazines.
He regularly tweets about cycling (and other things) @GMWalesSport | If I had gone for a Sunday morning ride around some of my favourite south Wales roads 10 years ago, I would have passed barely a handful of other pedalling pleasure seekers. |

The avalanche struck on Friday in an area just above Everest base camp at 5,800m (19,000ft).
The guides had climbed up the slope early that morning to fix ropes for climbers and prepare the route.
It was the single deadliest accident in modern mountaineering on the world's highest peak.
"We have decided to stop the search for the missing. We have been unable to identify the location of bodies and at this stage it is difficult to find them in the snow," tourism ministry official Dipendra Paudel told the AFP news agency.
The avalanche struck a passage called the Khumbu Icefall, which is riddled with crevasses and large ice boulders that can break free without warning.
Although relatively low on the mountain, climbers say it is one of its most dangerous points - but there are no safer paths along the famous South Col route first scaled by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay in 1953.
An injured survivor told his relatives that the path was unstable just before the avalanche hit.
Sherpas often make 20-25 round trips to carry kit and supplies to advanced camps, exposing them to greater risk. The most endangered are the so-called Icefall Doctors - a team that maintains and fixes the route.
It was the first major avalanche of this year's climbing season on Everest, which has been scaled by more than 3,000 climbers.
The rising number of tourists has raised concerns about safety and environmental damage, although Nepal still plans to cut fees from next year for those wishing to make the climb.
The government has issued permits to 334 foreign climbers this season, up from 328 for the whole of last year. An equal number of guides also climb to help the foreign mountaineers.
Some 250 climbers have died on the mountain, which is on the border between Nepal and the Chinese region of Tibet and can be climbed from both sides.
Jemima, a 3ft (1m) corn snake, was spotted in a flat in Leighton Buzzard.
The RSPCA carried out a tricky rescue involving moving the machine. After Jemima bolted into the wall, they had to remove the skirting boards.

Kate Wright, from the RSPCA, was called to the Bedfordshire flat at about 04:00 BST on Thursday.
Having rescued the "healthy-looking" adult snake she knocked on nearby doors until she found Jemima's relieved owner, Colin Millar.
"Jemima went missing at Easter and I'd pretty much given up on ever finding her. I looked everywhere I could think of," he said.
"It is remarkable that Jemima has managed to survive and be returned reasonably healthy. She must have been insulated in the walls of the building."
"We're so pleased she's home," Mr Millar added.

What is the summary of the following document? | The seven former paratroops have asked the High Court to stop them being arrested and brought to Northern Ireland.
A lawyer for one of the paratroops told the court the challenge revolved around where they would be interviewed.
Lord Chief Justice Lord Thomas said it was a "wholly exceptional case".
A 66-year-old arrested in Antrim earlier this month was the first man to be detained in the investigation.
Thirteen people were shot dead on 30 January 1972 in Londonderry when paratroops opened fire on crowds.
Fourteen others were wounded, one of whom died months later.
The lawyer said the former Parachute Regiment members had no issue with being interviewed and would co-operate.
He was speaking at the first public hearing of the judicial review action brought at the High Court in London by the former soldiers against the chief constable of the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI).
The issue at the heart of their application was that the men should not be arrested and interviewed in Northern Ireland, he said.
A lawyer for the chief constable of the Police Service of Northern Ireland told the court "that criminal investigations are unpleasant and unwelcome to those caught up in them but are necessary for the rule of law".
The case was described by the lord chief justice as being of "considerable interest" to the public.
Earlier this month, the PSNI made its first arrest over the Bloody Sunday killings, questioning a former member of the Parachute Regiment.
The ex-soldier was arrested in County Antrim and interviewed at a police station in Belfast before being released on bail the following day.
The legal action being considered by the three judges was lodged with the High Court after their former colleague was arrested.
Bloody Sunday was one of the most controversial days in Northern Ireland's history.
The fatal shootings, were the subject of a 12-year public inquiry led by Lord Saville.
The Saville Report, published in 2010, unequivocally blamed the army for the civilian deaths and exonerated those who were killed.
Prime Minister David Cameron accepted the findings of the report and made a public apology to the victims. | A case taken by ex-soldiers who face questioning over Bloody Sunday has been called "one of the most extraordinary in the annals of common law". |
Provide a brief summary for the information below. | Conwy's Llys Meddyg GP surgery will terminate its contract with the Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board (BCUHB) in October, affecting around 3,700 patients.
The practice said both its GPs had been working 12-hour days to cope with an "increased workload".
After failing to recruit a new GP, both doctors had "no choice" but to resign.
The health board is opening a new 'GP hub' in former council offices in Prestatyn, with six extra doctors.
BCUHB has recently taken over Prestatyn's Pendyffryn Medical Group, a practice in Blaenau Ffestiniog in Gwynedd, and Wrexham's Beechley Medical Centre.
Dr Phil White, secretary of the north Wales local medical committee, said many local practices were now finding it difficult to compete with the locum rates paid by BCUHB-managed practices.
He added: "It is costing the taxpayer a fortune. We have failed to train enough GPs and there is an attitude among doctors that it is a second rate job.
"There is a lot of bureaucracy within GP practices. Our doctors are disappearing abroad because they are disillusioned with the NHS."
A BCUHB spokesman said patients do not need to register with a different GP practice, and normal services will continue until the end of October.
"We are writing to all patients registered at Llys Meddyg to let them know about this change and they should receive a letter early next week," he added.
"Over the next six months, we will keep practice staff and patients informed of our progress, and will respond to any concerns and questions."

Can you summarize the following content in brief? | Ginx eSports TV will be available via Sky's television service and will air footage from tournaments as well as produce original content.
It plans to show Valve's Dota 2 international competition as well as global tournaments for Counter Strike.
But one expert wondered where the audience for the channel would was going to come from.
In a statement, Ginx boss Michiel Bakker said the channel aimed to give esports "significant mainstream TV exposure" that would complement the online streaming of gaming that many watch.
He said he hoped that making the channel available to Sky's millions of customers would help people discover esports for the first time. It would also give established fans a different perspective on competitions and tournaments, he added.
The channel will face significant competition for its audience as many gamers prefer to watch gaming streams online. Many follow regular gamers on the Twitch streaming service, on YouTube and Facebook or via sites run by game makers to broadcast top tournaments.
Earlier this year, Activision Blizzard bought the Major League Gaming firm as the start of a plan to make competitive gaming more accessible.
Increasing numbers of established broadcasters are also starting to put gaming tournaments on mainstream channel. Last year, the BBC aired the highlights of the quarter finals of Riot Games' League of Legends world championships. And, in the US, the sports network ESPN has also started to focus more on pro-gamers.
A report published earlier in 2016 by Deloitte predicted that global revenues from esports will rise by 25% this year to $500m (£353m). Its regular audience will likely top 150 million people globally, it predicted.
Alec Meer from gaming news site Rock, Paper Shotgun wondered who would be watching the tournaments and gaming-themed shows.
"It is difficult to imagine what the channel could possibly do to entice people away from watch-anywhere esports with favoured commentators and streams on YouTube and Twitch and back to broadcast TV," he said.
Many young people had simply "abandoned" TV in favour of web video, he added.
"Perhaps it's in with a chance if it can bag exclusive rights, as with football, but even if it does there's so much other esports out there that there's simply no way of cornering the market," Mr Meer told the BBC.
"Good luck to 'em," he said. "It's nice to see more gaming on TV for sure, but I rather suspect it's far too late at this stage."

The pair met when Mr Ross visited the shop where Mrs Ross worked to ask about an edition of Wireless World magazine.
Mrs Ross, 88, said she and her husband were "perfect lovers".
Her 90-year-old husband said: "I picked this girl and I got her, and I've stood by her ever since. That's the secret.
"We have our arguments but we never allow them to get to a break-up situation."
Mrs Ross added: "We can have arguments but do not get into anything serious. We are perfect lovers."

Can you provide an overview of this section? | Counties are allowed to field two overseas players in Twenty20 games, with up to four registered for that competition, although only two can be registered at any one time, and registrations must be for a minimum of 10 days.
Only one overseas player is permitted in the County Championship and One-Day Cup competitions.
Kolpak contracts are signed by foreign players, using a loophole in European Union law to avoid counting against the quota of one overseas player per club.

What is the summary of the following article? | Media playback is not supported on this device
Hohaia, 32, retired from the game in April last year, citing "recurrent post-match concussion-type symptoms".
McManus said the former New Zealand international cannot have been as ill as he made out because he was able to complete a business degree.
Hohaia blames Saints for not supporting him as he struggled with his health.
Just six months earlier, he had been assaulted by Wigan's Wales prop Ben Flower in the 2014 Grand Final at Old Trafford.
Hohaia's claims, made in an interview with the New Zealand Herald last week, that he did not get the backing he needed after being injured by Flower had already drawn an angry response from St Helens.
Now McManus has posted his own statement on the club's website.
In it, he claimed Hohaia had made a "series of utterly false accusations about the club" and said his "mis-statements" have "wrongly damaged" the reputation of "one of the world's great rugby league clubs".
McManus added: "We will not tolerate our good name and the valuable reputations and livelihoods of our top professional staff being wrongly damaged by falsehood.
"We will take all appropriate actions to redress and remedy the situation. If we do not, the sport has no future."
McManus insisted the club's "meticulously kept records" demonstrate they handled Hohaia's situation both professionally and properly.
He also claimed Hohaia cannot have been too badly affected by his illness given he successfully completed a business degree after retiring.
"This was an impressive continuing achievement, but again utterly irreconcilable with his subsequent claims as to his wellbeing," said McManus.
Hohaia said it was "embarrassing" that McManus "would try to draw a correlation between my mental state and my university marks".
He added: "I was provided with an outstanding tutor that I worked with weekly to help me with my assignments and did not sit the final exam due to my mental state.
"I was awarded an aggregated score on my final exam based on my previous assignments out of compassion, which allowed me to pass."
McManus also criticised Hohaia for damaging the reputation of the club's "highly reputable and leading medical and rugby staff".
However, Hohaia has told BBC Sport that at "no point in time" has he "publicly criticised the highly regarded medical staff at Saints".
"The lack of support that I felt was from management and was in reference specifically to how my retirement and the subsequent time after was handled, not how I was treated after the Grand Final incident," he said.
"Eamonn has taken my wider statement about the club not supporting me as an attack against the entire club and the team, which is simply not the case."
By giving an interview about his retirement, Hohaia said his intention had been to raise concerns over the ways concussions are "recognised, measured, analysed, tracked and treated".
He added: "At the moment, there is a one-size-fits-all approach, which does not, in my opinion, suffice.
"It is a shame that this message has been lost in the tirade from Saints." | Ex-St Helens player Lance Hohaia has accused Saints chairman Eamonn McManus of making "embarrassing" claims in the growing row between the two parties. |
Give a brief overview of this passage. | Figures disclosed in the River Tweed Commissioner's annual report show the total number of salmon caught by rod and net in 2014 was 9,971.
It is a drop of more than 10,000 compared with the 2013 total of 20,316.
It has been attributed to the mildest winter on record coupled with a hot summer and lengthy dry spell.
However, the report maintained there was "plenty to be positive about" on the river.
It said the fact the fishery was "properly protected, monitored and understood" could provide a "platform to bounce back from a period of relative famine". | A fall of more than 50% has been reported in the number of salmon caught on the River Tweed last year. |
Can you summarize this passage? | The inquiry found that two officials on "a frolic on their own" approved the landing of a private plane at the base, a minister said.
The Gupta family flew guests from India last month - they deny wrongdoing.
The opposition says the incident shows the "undue influence" the family wields over President Jacob Zuma.
The family's business interests in South Africa cover mining, aviation, technology and the media.
Bollywood stars and Indian government officials reportedly flew in for the four-day wedding of Vega Gupta to Aaskash Jahajgarhia in the casino resort of Sun City.
During a heated parliamentary debate, MP David Maynier of the opposition Democratic Alliance (DA) party said "heads must roll" over the fact that the chartered plane was allowed to land at the Waterkloof military base near the capital, Pretoria.
"We cannot sit back and allow ministers to get off the hook by hanging a few 'rogue officials' out to dry," he added.
Mr Zuma - who did not attend the debate - was the "root cause" of the problem, Mr Maynier said.
"He is responsible for creating the 'culture of undue influence' referred to in the investigation report," he added.
Releasing the report, Justice Minister Jeff Radebe rejected allegations of a cover-up.
Two officials were on a "frolic on their own" when they granted the family access to the base, and the cabinet was not involved, he said.
The report named the officials as Chief of State Protocol Bruce Koloane and a senior official at Waterkloof, Lt Col Christine Anderson.
The report also said that an individual at the Indian High Commission "re-designated the wedding entourage as an official delegation" so that the base could be used "under the cover of diplomatic privilege".
"The landing of the flight was a direct result of manipulation of processes and was undesirable," the report added.
The Indian High Commission has not yet commented on the findings.
Home Affairs Minister Naledi Pandor said the opposition was blaming Mr Zuma because they were "consumed by hatred" for him.
"If the report does not find Zuma guilty, they are unable to accept it."
When the controversy first broke, Gupta family spokesman Haranath Ghosh said the Indian High Commission had arranged for the plane to land at the base because it was carrying "high profile ministers and dignitaries" who had been invited to the wedding.
The family's 121-car convoy was granted a full police escort to Sun City for the wedding, the inquiry found, AFP news agency reports.
A total of 194 government staff and 88 vehicles were used, 296 private security officers were hired, and two planes and seven helicopters used to ferry guests, it adds. | South Africa's main opposition party has condemned as a cover-up an official probe into the use of a military base for a society wedding. |

Write a concise summary of the provided excerpt. | BBC NI's Enda McClafferty last spoke to Raymond Gilmour in 2014 during an interview in which he said the security forces had "basically abandoned" him.
The supregrass' body was discovered last week by his teenage son at his home in Kent.
He had been living under an assumed identity for more than 30 years.
Raymond Gilmour , from Londonderry, became an RUC Special Branch informer when he was 17 and was the only witness in a trial of 31 IRA suspects that collapsed in 1984.
He is "unlikely to be remembered in the way he would have liked", says our correspondent.
The security service agent is to be buried following a post mortem, although "the name Raymond Gilmour is unlikely to be on his headstone", he adds.
Following the trial's collapse, Gilmour was considered "damaged goods" while republicans viewed him as a "a traitor, who betrayed his friends and family for money", said Enda McClafferty.
"Gilmour said that he saved countless lives during his time as an agent for the security services, but in reality history will look at Raymond Gilmour as the man behind the first supergrass trial here, a trial that collapsed."
Raymond Gilmour first joined republican paramilitaries the Irish National Liberation Army (INLA) in 1976 as a police agent working for the Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC).
He then moved to the IRA in 1980 before his cover was blown two years later when police used information supplied by him to recover a machine gun.
He decided to testify against a number of alleged republicans in 1984, but the case collapsed when the then lord chief justice, Lord Lowry, dismissed his evidence, calling it "unworthy of belief".
In the 2014 BBC interview, Raymond Gilmour talked about constantly "living under threat" and how the security forces had "basically abandoned" him.
"You always got the sense when you were talking to him that here was a man who was in a very dark place, suffering from severe psychological problems, alcohol abuse and indeed depression," says our correspondent.
During his time as an agent for the security services, Gilmour said he was paid £600 per week for information.
In latter years he had been living on a weekly disability payment of £80.
He told the BBC he had "no regrets" about his work as an agent, but said being unable to attend the funeral of his mother "was a big regret in his life."
The singer's latest hit Work has scored a ninth week at the top of the Billboard Hot 100, giving her an overall tally of 60 weeks at number one with 14 songs.
That's one more week at number one than The Beatles' overall total.
She is now second on the list of all-time chart toppers, behind Mariah Carey, whose record is 79 weeks.
However, some of the songs counted as a number one for Rihanna are actually collaborations with other artists.
Live Your Life, which spent six weeks at number one in 2008, was performed by rapper T.I. - with Rihanna appearing as a guest vocalist.
Similarly, Monster and Love the Way You Lie were both performed by Eminem, but featured Rihanna singing the choruses.
The two songs spent a combined total of 11 weeks at number one.
Mariah Carey also has some collaborations counted among her 79-week total.
Her duet with Boyz II Men, One Sweet Day, spent 16 weeks at number one in 1995 and 1996.
We Belong Together is her most successful solo single, after spending 14 weeks as a Billboard Hot 100 number one in 2005.
None of the singles by The Beatles to reach the chart summit featured other artists.
The most popular songs by The Beatles in the US were Hey Jude, which spent nine weeks at number one in 1968, and I Want To Hold Your Hand, which was number one for seven weeks in 1964.
Elvis Presley also has a total of 79 weeks - but only if weeks prior to the inception of the Billboard Hot 100 are counted.
The American chart began life in August 1958, after which Presley is credited with having 22 cumulative weeks at the top of the Billboard chart. | The funeral of IRA supergrass Raymond Gilmour is to take place following a post mortem, but his name will probably never appear on his headstone.

Write a brief summary of the provided content. | Pen Test Partners, which tested the Siime Eye vibrator, said it was "trivial" to connect to its web interface.
This meant attackers could access intimate videos recorded by the device, as well as control other functions.
Svakom, the US firm that makes the toy, has not responded to a request for comment.
According to Svakom's website, the Siime Eye has a built-in micro camera and a hidden searchlight, which can be connected to a PC, tablet or mobile phone via wi-fi.
The firm says this allows users to "record and share" their experiences with a partner via "pictures or videos".
But in a blog, Pen Test Partners showed how the device could be hacked.
It said someone within range of the device could access its video stream, either by working out the user's password, or entering the manufacturer's default password, 88888888, if it had not been changed.
Those with more advanced knowledge could gain "complete control" over operation of the device, Pen said.
"It's trivial to connect to the access point (AP)," it said, "[and] if you can get onto the wireless AP, you'll have instant access to everything on this web application.
"Oh, and being a Wi-Fi AP means you can find users too… This part surprised us the most."
Pen Test said it had contacted Svakom several times about the issue since December but had not heard back.
It comes weeks after Canadian firm Standard Innovation agreed to pay $3.75m (£3m) to settle privacy claims regarding some of its We-Vibe sex toys.
Some We-Vibe models collected intimate user data and sent it back to the manufacturer without the user's consent.
Tech experts said the vibrator could also be hacked although Standard Innovation, which did not admit wrongdoing, said none of the devices' data was accessed by outside parties. | A wi-fi-enabled sex toy that features an in-built camera can be hacked, security researchers say. |
Summarize the content of the document below. | A consultation document reveals key targets to reduce deprivation significantly by 2030.
The Child Poverty Bill's objectives are more ambitious than the ones scrapped by the UK government in January.
Equalities Minister Angela Constance said: "About one in five children live in poverty. This is unacceptable in a thriving country like ours."
Speaking at the launch of the bill in Dundee, Ms Constance said: "I want to be clear that we are serious about our ambition to eradicate child poverty and I want to work with partners across Scotland to make that ambition a reality."
The bill proposes protecting families' income by law, with the aim that less than 10% of children should live in relative poverty and less than 5% in absolute poverty.
Relative poverty is where a family earns less than 60% of the national average while absolute poverty is where earnings are less than 60% of the average wage in 1999.
The consultation also suggests that less than 5% of children should live in persistent poverty or a low income or materially deprived home, which cannot afford a car or holiday for instance.
The targets, which are to be calculated after housing costs have been deducted, are to be achieved within 14 years.
Ms Constance said: "We are showing that we see child poverty and low income families as a priority.
"We will continue to strive towards equality of opportunity for everyone in Scotland and ending the cycle of poverty once and for all."
The Scottish government has already brought in measures to tackle deprivation and inequality, including promoting the Living Wage, free school meals and funded childcare.
Ms Constance said: "We have already done a lot of work in this area but we want to go further.
"We've promised children a better start in life and more opportunities as they grow up.
"We've offered parents more and better-paid jobs and greater security in which to bring up their families and we are committed to tackling deep-seated inequalities."
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon announced plans to introduce the Child Poverty Bill last month.
She said the UK approach was "fundamentally wrong" after the Conservative government in Westminster moved to repeal parts of the 2010 Child Poverty Act.
Ms Sturgeon also appointed expert Naomi Eisenstadt as an independent child poverty adviser.
The new consultation is intended to seek out views on the feasibility of the proposed targets and whether additional or alternative measures should be taken.
The bill will be introduced at Holyrood next year.
Ms Constance was speaking at a project intended to provide free meals to low income families over the summer. | The Scottish government has outlined its vision to end child poverty in the country. |
Please summarize the given passage. | The UK Lung Cancer Coalition said some parts of the country are far more likely than others to provide access to specialist nurses and surgery.
Its report points to the fact Wales has the second to worst lung cancer five-year survival rate in Europe.
The Welsh government said survival rates were improving.
The group behind the first "Ten Years On" report - which tracks how far lung cancer outcomes and services have progressed over the last decade - is made up of charities, doctors and healthcare companies.
It said lung cancer is more fatal than it should be.
In some parts of Wales fewer than two in ten men survive the disease, while in other parts four in ten live for at least a year after diagnosis.
The report said that variation could end through better access to surgery and specialist nurses.
"While the latest figures for Wales show that one-year lung cancer survival rates have increased by 10% over the last decade, survival rates compare poorly with other major cancers and seriously lag behind our European counterparts," said Dr Ian Lewis, director for research and policy at Tenovus Cancer Care and a member of the UK Lung Cancer Coalition (UKLCC).
"Put simply, ten years on we are not where we should be."
The report calls for an increase in the number of lung cancer specialist nurses, an emphasis on the benefits of a national lung cancer screening programme and patient access to the latest molecular diagnostic tests.
It also said the removal of unfair inconsistencies in the current Individual Patient Funding Request (IPFR) process between health boards - to ensure patients in Wales receive the most innovative and cost-effective medicines - is also "imperative".
Lung cancer remains the biggest cancer killer in Wales; it kills nearly 2,000 people each year, greater than the next two major cancers (bowel and breast cancer) combined.
• Five-year survival rates for breast cancer in Wales are up to ten times higher than lung cancer survival rates in Wales
• Wales has the second worst lung cancer five-year survival rate in Europe (ranked 28th out of 29th European countries)
• While the number of men diagnosed with lung cancer in Wales has decreased, the number of female lung cancer patients has increased by more than a third during the last decade
One consultant at Swansea's Morriston Hospital said more investment in diagnostic tests could also improve survival rates.
"I think we can do better," said Dr Emrys Evans, a consultant respiratory physician.
"I think we have to prove we're working efficiently within the systems we have already.
"But I think it's a reasonable argument that we should have greater access to diagnostic techniques and then when we have made the diagnosis that we have greater access to more radical therapies for patients and newer therapies for patients that colleagues in England can have access to more readily than we can in Wales."
The Welsh government said it was determined to improve outcomes for people with lung cancer.
"We are pleased this report recognises the progress Wales is making in improving survival rates and better access to specialist nurses," a spokesman said.
"The challenges it sets out are well-known and we are already delivering on its recommendations as a priority through the cancer implementation group.
"We have improved data collection and reporting on lung cancer, established a programme to optimise outcomes from lung surgery, and are working with clinicians to improve treatment for people with lung cancer." | A group of cancer experts is calling for "unacceptable" variations in access to care people receive for lung cancer in Wales to be tackled. |
Please summarize the document below. | The Tories told a BBC debate Brighton's hospital was seeing major investment and East Kent NHS had improved.
But the Lib Dems said the NHS was "at breaking point", the Greens said there were huge shortages and Labour said more funds could be raised from taxes.
UKIP said the NHS was not free and sick or old people would end up paying.
Brighton's Royal Sussex County Hospital went into special measures last year after inspectors deemed it unsafe and poorly-led, and East Kent Hospitals Trust went into special measures in 2014, but last December the Care Quality Commission said it had improved.

Conservative Damian Collins, who is standing in Folkestone & Hythe, said the Tories' manifesto included more funding for the NHS, with more money going into primary care to support GPs.
He said: "We are seeing new investment in the health service that delivers better facilities.

Kelly-Marie Blundell, the Liberal Democrat candidate for Lewes, said: "Quite simply, our NHS is at breaking point."
She said the Lib Dems were proposing a penny-in-the-pound rise in income tax and said: "We need to see investment and we need to see radical overhaul to make sure we keep our NHS free at the point of access."
The Green Party's Caroline Lucas, standing in Brighton Pavilion, said UK had the world's fifth biggest economy and said: "We put less into our health system as a percentage of GDP than most other European countries."
She said more money had to go on the NHS, and called for private companies to be taken out of the public health system.
Peter Chowney, Labour candidate for Hastings & Rye, said everyone needed healthcare and the country had an ageing population.
He said more could be done to raise taxes and close tax loopholes and added: "There are all sorts of ways we can raise that money and the important thing is to keep the NHS free for those who use it,"
Piers Wauchope, standing for UKIP in Dover, criticised a plan put forward in the Conservative' manifesto for people to pay for their social care and called for a restructuring of the health service to include social care.
He said: "We always speak about the NHS being free from the cradle to the grave, it's not. Once you get ill and you're old and you've got one of many conditions, dementia being one of them, you end up paying for it."

The 12-year-old died at the scene and an 11-year-old is in hospital in a critical condition.
Police said the driver of the car did not stop following the crash in Ashton Road and officers were still trying to locate them. Roads have been closed.
Sgt Lee Westhead, from GMP's serious collision investigation unit, said: "These are tragic circumstances where a young girl has lost her life and I would urge anyone who knows anything to do with this collision to contact police immediately.
"Another girl is currently fighting for her life in hospital and specially trained officers are supporting the families involved.
"Officers are at the scene trying to establish exactly what happened while we also have a dedicated team trying to locate the driver of the car.
"If you have any information about this collision then please contact us. If you saw a black Golf in the area around the time of this incident then I would also urge you to call us."
Israel's Supreme Court has ruled that Amona must be demolished because it is built on private Palestinian land.
But hundreds of activists threw stones at and resisted police officers as they moved in to enforce the court order.
Hours earlier, the Israeli government approved plans to build 3,000 new homes at settlements in the West Bank.
It is the third such announcement since the inauguration 12 days ago of US President Donald Trump, who has hinted he will be more sympathetic to settlement construction than his predecessor.
A Palestinian official, Hanan Ashrawi, condemned the latest approval and warned that chances for peace were being destroyed.
More than 600,000 Jews live in about 140 settlements built since Israel's 1967 occupation of the West Bank and East Jerusalem. The settlements are considered illegal under international law, though Israel disputes this.
There are also more than 95 outposts - settlements built without official authorisation from the Israeli government - across the West Bank.
Located on a hilltop near the settlement of Ofra, north-east of Ramallah, Amona was built in 1996 on land registered as privately-owned by Palestinians.
In 2006, following a decision by the Israeli Supreme Court, nine permanent structures in the outpost were demolished, sparking violent clashes between settlers and security forces.
In December 2014, the court ordered the Israeli government to completely remove Amona within two years. But the deadline was recently extended until 8 February.
The BBC's Yolande Knell, who is at the outpost, says many of the 50 or so Israeli families who have been living there remained in the homes as bulldozers approached on Wednesday.
"We won't leave our homes on our own. Pull us out, and we'll go," one settler was quoted as saying by Reuters news agency. "It is a black day for Zionism."
The settlers were joined by hundreds of supporters, many of whom confronted the lines of Israeli police acting on the Supreme Court's order.
"A Jew doesn't evict a Jew!" the protesters chanted as they linked arms.
By late Wednesday afternoon, 12 families had agreed to leave and 12 houses had been evacuated, police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said.
Seven protesters had been arrested and 200 others had been removed from the area, he added. Sixteen officers had also been lightly injured by stones and caustic liquid thrown at them.
Our correspondent says the demolition of Amona has proven highly divisive for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's governing coalition, which includes members who strongly support settlements.
Education Minister Naftali Bennett, leader of the Jewish Home party, called the Amona settlers "heroes" and said a bill currently before the Israeli parliament that seeks to retroactively legalise other unauthorised outposts would soon be passed.
"Thanks to the campaign in Amona, thousands of families will be rescued from being evicted from their homes. I call on the pioneers of our generation, the settlers of Judea and Samaria, to lift up your heads," he said, using the Biblical name for the West Bank.
The bill is expected to be approved by parliament next week, but it is opposed by Israel's attorney-general and legal experts say it is likely be overturned by the Supreme Court. | A 12-year-old girl has been killed in a New Year's Eve hit-and-run crash in Oldham, police have said.

Waveney District Council has written to leaseholders saying they will not be able to use their huts this year.
The council said the future of the huts depended on what structural engineers found on further inspection.
Waveney currently has about 400 people on its beach hut waiting list and people can expect to wait anywhere between five and 30 years for a hut to become free.
Cabinet member Stephen Ardley said :"One of the things I have to say is just how understanding the leaseholders have been.

It is being restored thanks to £200,00 from English Heritage and £426,000 from the Heritage Lottery Fund.

Once renovations are completed, the dome will open to the public as an education centre.
John Ette, from English Heritage, said the concrete used to build it had suffered severe decay.
The metal rod and mesh sub-structure was also decaying.
"It's required an absolutely innovative technique to run a current through it to drive the moisture out," said Mr Ette.
"Then it has to be refaced, so it's actually quite a technically difficult job and it's taken years to build up the right expertise."
Patrick Allen, from the Friends of Langham Dome - the organisation instrumental in securing the grants for the dome's restoration - said it was the culmination of 20 years' work.
"Future generations can come in here and hopefully will be able to learn what went on in 1940 to 45 in Langham," he said.
"Langham went from a village of 200 people to 2,000 people living here during the war, so it was quite an upheaval for the village.

Please provide a short summary of this passage. | The rape of an elderly nun in West Bengal state last week has sparked outrage in the country.
At the weekend, a Catholic church in Haryana was vandalised and the cross replaced with an idol of a Hindu god.
Critics say Mr Modi's government is not doing enough to stop Hindu zealots targeting minorities.
Correspondents say the rape case and recent attacks on churches have made Indian Christians feel insecure, although it is not clear whether the assault on the convent was sectarian.
On Tuesday, Mr Modi's office put out a series of tweets on the two incidents:
Ten men have been detained in connection with the rape of the 74-year-old in West Bengal's Nadia district early on Saturday morning.
But none of them resemble the six alleged attackers who were caught on CCTV burgling the convent before the nun was raped.
On Monday, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said the nun was recovering in hospital and the police were "looking for the mastermind of the incident".
At least 14 people have been questioned in connection with Sunday's attack on a church which was being built in Haryana's Hisar district, but no arrests have been made.
"We have to raise our voice against the atrocities. Christians will not tolerate this humiliation," Father Savari Muthu, spokesman for the Delhi Catholic Archdiocese, told the NDTV news channel.
Last month, Mr Modi vowed to protect all religious groups after a string of attacks on churches in Delhi.
Addressing a Christian audience in the capital, he called on all religious groups to show restraint and mutual respect.
Since December, five churches have been attacked in the city and police has tightened security.
Sewell will appear alongside Tim Key and Paul Ritter in Matthew Warchus's production, which comes 20 years on from the play's London premiere.
Art - a comic drama about three friends who fall out over a painting - runs from 10 December to 18 February.
Albert Finney, Ken Stott and Sir Tom Courtenay were in its first UK staging.
Warchus also directed that inaugural production, which came two years on from the play's 1994 premiere in Paris.
Thanks in part to regular cast changes, the original West End production ran for eight years.
Sewell can be seen as Queen Victoria's first prime minister in ITV's dramatisation of her early years as monarch.
The 48-year-old was previously seen on stage in the first productions of Arcadia and Rock 'n' Roll, both by Sir Tom Stoppard.
Key is known for playing Alan Partridge's sidekick in Midmorning Matters and for his Late Night Poetry Programme on BBC Radio 4.
Ritter, whose theatre credits include playing John Major in The Audience, will soon be seen in Inferno, the latest film to be adapted from Dan Brown's best-selling Robert Langdon series.

Give a concise summary of the passage below. | Nadia Bolz Weber walks through the glass doors and immediately commands attention. She is 6'1" (185cm), has short, salt-and-pepper hair slicked back from her face, wears dark pink lipstick, and her bare arms are well-toned from many hours spent lifting weights in the gym. There is no dog collar this morning.
But I get a clear view of her trademark tattoos. Elaborate, colourful images extend all the way up both arms. Closer inspection reveals characters and scenes from the Bible.
"I've got images from the entire liturgical year," she says, pointing to her left arm. "There's the Angel Gabriel, Elizabeth and Zacharias for Advent, the creche scene for Christmas, Jesus in the desert for Lent, Good Friday and the crucifixion, the angel and the women at the empty tomb for Easter and Mary and the Apostles with flames on their heads for Pentecost."
That is just one side. She turns to show me her right arm where she has a large tattoo of Mary Magdalene, a follower of Jesus, who is often described as a prostitute. Bolz Weber disagrees, suggesting texts in the Bible are being misinterpreted, and that as the first person to meet Jesus after the resurrection, "She is the apostle to the apostles. She was the first preacher in a sense." She describes Mary as her patroness. "She's fierce," she adds, meaning "cool".
And finally, she tells me that on her back there's a "huge piece that's the Annunciation-slash-cover-up of a really hideous tattoo that some junkie gave me when I was lying in his apartment in 1991".
Nadia Bolz Weber could not be described as pious. She is frank about her wild past and her character flaws - she finds it hard to be nice to people, she insists - and she tells stories that are funny, self-deprecating, and riddled with expletives.
Her autobiography, published in 2013, is full of what she calls "salty language" with chapter titles including I Didn't Call You for This Truth Bullshit, and one that makes liberal use of the F-word.
Her route to the priesthood was circuitous - via alcoholism and stand-up comedy - and she uses her story to engage fellow "outsiders" who might think they don't belong in church.
She was raised in Colorado Springs in the highly conservative Church of Christ. "I had a really harsh religious upbringing," she says, "fundamentalist, legalistic, sectarian."
She briefly attended one of the Church's universities, Pepperdine, in Malibu, California - one of the world's most scenic campuses, perched on the cliffside above the Pacific Ocean. But she doesn't recall much of her four months there. "I was a drug-addled mess," she says.
She dropped out of college, moved to Denver, Colorado, and went on a bender for several years.
"I was just this kid who didn't fit my whole life. I was so angry," she says. "That anger protected, saved me in a way - until I added drugs and alcohol to it and then it almost killed me!"
She is very open about her days sleeping around, and getting drunk or high. "I was perfectly happy with the idea that I'd be dead by 30," she says.
But one day her close friend, PJ, killed himself. She knew him from the comedy circuit and his funeral was held in a comedy club in Denver, which she describes as "packed with academics, queers, recovering alcoholics".
By then she had left the Church of Christ, and had already taken up and abandoned Paganism. But she still believed in God and so as the only one of PJ's friends who had any faith, she was asked to preside at his funeral.
"And I looked out and I thought: 'These are my people and they don't have a pastor - and maybe I'm actually called to be a pastor to my people,'" she says.
She went off to a Lutheran seminary and later started the House for All Sinners and Saints in Denver - its mission to minister to "outsiders".
"I had to start a church I'd want to show up to, basically because I'd rarely gone to one I liked," she says.
"I actually told my bishop at some point during the process, 'Look, you could put me in a parish in the suburbs of some small town, but you and I both know that would be ugly for everyone involved, so how about I just start one?' He goes: 'Yeah, that sounds like a better idea.'"
One third of her congregation is gay, lesbian or transgender. And they celebrate that fact. There is even a "Minister of Fabulousness", a drag queen called Stuart.
"Here's why if you don't have a drag queen in your congregation you should get one," Bolz Weber says.
"Because when we were talking about what's called stewardship, which is kind of the financial reality of our church and people giving and stuff, we were trying to figure out ways to encourage people to help fund the community they're part of, Stuart goes: 'Oh I know what we're going to do. We're going to get a T-Shirt and on the front it will say This Shit Ain't Free, and then on the back it's going to say So You Better Tithe, Bitches!' You see what I'm saying? It just makes church so much better."
They don't own the building, and they worship in the round with the altar at the centre. She says that's because the many younger people who attend have a "built-in suspicion of institutions and a suspicion of presumed authority". She clearly identifies with them.
They share roles and sing hymns unaccompanied, in the a capella tradition she brought from the Church of Christ.
She says that there used to be 40 of them on any given Sunday. Then, after she was featured in The Denver Post and preached to a mass outdoor congregation one Easter, the congregation doubled overnight.
Suddenly she was drawing in 65-year-olds from the suburbs, prompting what she describes as an "identity crisis".
"It was awful. I just looked around, I was like, 'Man, these people could go to any mainline Protestant church in the city and see a bunch of people who look just like them. Why are they messing up our weird?!'" she says.
"So I called a friend of mine who has a similar church, and I was like: 'Hey, have you ever had normal people mess up your church?' expecting him to be like: 'Yeah, here's what you do.' And he goes, 'Yeah, well you guys are really great at welcoming the stranger if it's a young transgender kid, but sometimes the stranger looks like your mum and dad.'"
Bolz Weber called a meeting to discuss the invasion of her "indie boutique of a church". But then, in one of many stories she tells at her own expense, she quotes a young congregant called Asher.
"Asher speaks up… and says, 'As the young transgender kid who was welcomed into your community, I'd just like to say that I'm really glad there are people here who look like my mom and dad because they love me in a way my parents can't right now.'"
Bolz Weber has no prejudices about sexual identity or orientation, and no patience with the debates about sexuality that have ensnared so many churches, including her own Lutheran denomination. She says it is because she doesn't read the Bible in a literal way - in fact, she calls such a reading idolatry.
She believes in sin - "I never weary of speaking of the ways in which we are broken and in need of grace," she says - she just doesn't understand it in sexual terms.
But while she is socially progressive, she adheres to the teachings of the orthodox Lutheran tradition.
"Theologically I'm not liberal," she says. "Because what I see in a lot of what would be categorised as liberal theology is what we call a high anthropology, which is a very high opinion of human beings and what we can accomplish, like 'All the good of God is inside of you!'
"And I'm like, 'Are you kidding? It's dark in there!' It's there, but there are other things there too."
Thanks partly to her autobiography, Pastrix: The Cranky Beautiful Faith of a Sinner and Saint, which became a bestseller, she has become a sought-after speaker across and beyond the United States - in traditional evangelical churches, among others.
"Isn't that hilarious? That they might not ever have invited a woman preacher before and then they invite one that's me?! It's like they went from zero to 60," she says.
One curious, though warm, encounter took place recently at Pepperdine, the university she once dropped out of.
"I don't think clergy should pretend to be people they're not," she tells the students.
"Which is not to say I think all clergy should swear, because frankly most of them are not very good at it." The audience laughs.
She adds: "You'll be fine." They laugh again.
Not surprisingly perhaps, Bolz Weber keeps getting invited to appear on reality TV shows.
She has also - and it must be a rare combination - been asked if she'd like to become a bishop.
She has no intention of accepting either offer.

Provide a brief summary for the information below. | Dawne Powell, 56, James Hill, 31, David Webster, 44, and Philip McElhone, 29, were given sentences ranging from three to 11 years at Leeds Crown Court.
High purity blocks of the class A drug was seized from a yacht off the Irish coast in September last year.
Judge James Spencer QC described the plot as "colossal and mind boggling".
The drugs were discovered by the Irish navy on the Makayabella yacht which had been bought by Powell in the Caribbean and used to smuggle the drugs across the Atlantic Ocean from Venezuela.
She also funded a second boat, the Sea Breeze, which was bought by her husband Stephen, in cash, for £18,350. He was jailed for 16 years last year for his part in the conspiracy.
The grandmother told the court she did not know her husband was involved in the plot.
Judge Spencer told Powell: "I'm quite satisfied that you knew what [Stephen Powell] was about, I'm quite satisfied you knew what was involved.
"This was a serious conspiracy. It involved a colossal amount of cash, or the prospect of it, because the street value of the quantity of cocaine which was planned to be imported was over £160m. And the quantities of illegal profit therefore were mind-boggling."
Hill, from Ilkley, West Yorkshire, was jailed for six years for conspiracy to import cocaine.
Powell, from Guiseley, West Yorkshire, was sentenced to three years for money laundering but cleared of a charge of conspiracy to import cocaine.
Both had denied the charges.
Webster, from Otley, West Yorkshire, and McElhone, from Halton Moor, Leeds, had both pleaded guilty to conspiracy to import cocaine at an earlier hearing and were jailed for 11 years each.
Earlier this year, three other men: John Powell, 70, from Silsden, West Yorkshire, Benjamin Mellor, 35, from Bradford, and Thomas Britteon, 28, from Grimsby, North East Lincolnshire, all admitted drug trafficking and importation in Ireland.
John Powell was sentenced to 10 years in jail, while Mellor and Britteon were jailed for eight years each.
John David Hulme, 55, denies charges which relate to more than £800,000 in public money paid to Padarn Bus Ltd in claims for concessionary fares.
The offences allegedly occurred between July 2011 and December 2012, before he was suspended as the firm's managing director on an unrelated matter.
The trial is being held at Caernarfon Crown Court.
Judge Merfyn Hughes QC told the jury a fraud existed but added: "You have to decide whether Mr Hulme was involved in it. That's the issue you will want to concentrate on throughout the case."
The prosecution counsel told jurors fraudulent claims totalling £814,655.78 were made between July 2011 and March 2014 when the fraud came to light.
The total, which had been falsely claimed by the company at the point Mr Hulme, from Caernarfon, was suspended in December 2012 was £495,857.08.
The jury heard a second man, Darren Price, of Llanrug, the operations manager at Padarn Bus Ltd, had already pleaded guilty to charges relating to fraud offences.
Mr Hulme was "intimately" involved although he claimed he had become suspicious that something wrong was going on before he was suspended, prosecutor Matthew Dunford said.
The fraud allegation against Mr Hulme involves making false representations to Gwynedd council over concessionary fare passenger numbers.
The second charge involves a falsified document presented to the council.
Jurors were told Padarn Bus Ltd was formed in 2009 when Padarn Bus and KMP buses merged and it was a "substantial local company" employing 79 staff with a fleet of 43 buses.
But Mr Dunford said the company had borrowed heavily at the time of the merger and by 2011 it owed money to the taxman.
Chartered accountant Simon Thelwall-Jones was brought in to help out and the fraud came to light when operations manager Price told him: "I have got something to tell you."
The accountant immediately contacted Gwynedd Council and police were also informed.

Director Kevin MacDonald said Esca's tribe, the Brigantes, once lived in the actor's native north of England.
Scotsman MacDonald joked on BBC Radio Scotland's Movie Cafe that Bell was typecast as a Brigante in the Roman Legion film because of the connection.
The director, who grew up near Loch Lomond, said the decision to cast an American in the lead role as Roman soldier Marcus Aquila was also deliberate.
He said Hollywood films of the 1930s and 40s cast English actors as Romans, drawing a link with the British Empire while Americans were given roles as freedom fighters.
MacDonald said: "It made sense back in the 30s, but who is the empire of the world today? The empire is Amercia. It is culturally dominant."
The director said Channing Tatum, who plays Aquila, also had the look of a "marine, or GI in a small fort" in Afghanistan's Helmand Province.
The Eagle also stars Donald Sutherland and Mark Strong and is an adaption of a book by Rosemary Sutcliff about the mystery of the missing Ninth Legion.

Please summarize the passage below. | Damien Joseph McLaughlin, 40, of Kilmascally Road near Ardboe, was due to stand trial this month.
He is to face charges including aiding and abetting the murder, possessing items to be used in terrorism and belonging to an illegal organisation.
However, Mr McLaughlin has not been seen by police since November.
Mr Black, 52, was shot dead by dissident republicans as he drove along the M1 on his way to work at Maghaberry Prison in November 2012.
Mr McLaughlin had spent time on remand after being charged in connection with the murder, but was granted bail in May 2014.
PSNI chief constable George Hamilton said: "Inquiries have been made with the courts and as a result a European Arrest Warrant has been obtained, bail has been revoked and an arrest warrant has been issued for Mr McLaughlin."
Since he went missing, police have carried out searches, interviewed associates and family members, checked CCTV security camera footage and made media appeals.
They have also liaised with law enforcement agencies across the UK, Republic of Ireland and Europe.
"In the period between 23 November 2016 and 23 December 2016 there appears to have been a breakdown in the monitoring of the bail by police," said Mr Hamilton.
He revealed that a door buzzer at Mr McLaughlin's bail address was faulty.
"Whilst the issue of the entry to the block of flats for curfew checks was being examined this was not joined up with the fact he was not now signing at the police station as required."
He said a computer process was shown to be ineffective in highlighting bail breaches in a timely fashion and noted human error in the form of a breakdown in communication.
The Police Ombudsman has begun an investigation to establish whether there were any failings in police conduct or in policing systems in the management of Mr McLaughlin's bail conditions.
Mr McLaughlin had initially been fitted with an electronic tag while on bail but he was permitted by a court to remove it in December 2014 despite strong police objections.

They are all helping police with their inquiries and officers are still appealing for information.
Det Supt Stuart Morrison said: "We are still appealing for information in this case and we would urge anyone who knows anything about Mr Ransevs and his death to get in touch with us as soon as possible."
Mr Ransevs had lived in Lincoln for about two years, and in Peterborough prior to that.
Police said a friend found him dead in the bedsit, and he had been last seen alive on 14 June.

Road to anarchy
Last week the UN said European troops were implicated in child sex abuse allegations.
Parfait Onanga-Anyanga, the UN envoy for CAR, travelled to Bambari, the country's second biggest city where the latest abuse allegedly occurred, on Thursday.
He expressed outrage and shame.
There is "sufficient initial evidence" that five of the alleged victims are minors and one adult has been sexually exploited, according to a fact-finding expert sent to the city.
The NGO Human Rights Watch said most of the abuse occurred while the Congolese peacekeepers were temporarily deployed to protect the city's airport.
UN assistant secretary-general Anthony Banbury said there are likely to be 22 confirmed allegations of sexual abuse or exploitation in the UN's peacekeeping mission in CAR. That may rise as a result of the latest allegations.
Last week, the UN said a number of girls aged between 14 and 16 alleged they had been raped by Georgian members of the EU's operation Eufor in CAR.
A seven-year-old girl and a nine-year-old boy said they were abused by French troops.
The troops were sent to stem violence between Christian militias and largely Muslim rebels.
The rebels seized power in March 2013 - in response, the militias took up arms against them.
Last December an independent panel criticised the UN's handling of abuse allegations in the CAR, calling it "seriously flawed" and a "gross institutional failure".
It accused senior UN officials of abusing their authority by failing to take action over allegations of abuse by soldiers from France, Equatorial Guinea and Chad.

Please summarize the given passage. | Tricia Marwick, who is the only woman to have held the position, said May 2016 would be the "right time" to leave frontline politics.
She said it had been an "honour" to serve as presiding officer since 2011 and was proud of the changes she had made to Holyrood business.
Mrs Marwick was elected as an SNP MSP in the first Holyrood poll in 1999.
She became presiding officer after the 2011 election, taking over from Alex Fergusson.
Mrs Marwick, the MSP for Mid Fife and Glenrothes, said: "It is possible that the next parliamentary session will last for five years and, if so, I will be 67 when that session ends.

She added: "When I was diagnosed with bowel cancer in 2013 it made me realise I wasn't invincible. The sad loss this session of four MSPs from the 1999 intake has affected me deeply.
"My health is good and all my tests show that I remain clear of cancer.
"However, my family have had to make many sacrifices over the years and I want to ensure that I can spend more time with them, particularly my two grandchildren."
But she said: "I don't intend to retire completely and hope I can continue to make some contribution to public life in Scotland."
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon paid tribute to Mrs Marwick for becoming the parliament's first female presiding officer and "blazing a trail for other women to follow".
Ms Sturgeon said: "She has also introduced a number of important and welcome reforms to procedures in Holyrood - giving a greater voice to backbenchers within parliament and making proceedings more open and accessible to the public.
"She will certainly be missed by all the MSPs and staff within parliament and I wish her the very best in her retirement.
"I know she'll be looking forward to spending more time with her family but I have no doubt that she will continue to play a role in public life in Scotland."
Scottish Liberal Democrat leader Willie Rennie said Mrs Marwick's "kindness and her firmness marked her out as a great presiding officer".
He added: "Tricia Marwick will be known as a reforming presiding officer. She has provided voices for the backbenchers in the first majority government. She raised the stature of the parliament."
Scottish Labour's acting leader Kezia Dugdale said: "A working class woman made it to the top and she's a first class role model for women across the land who want to break down barriers and the established order.

Provide a summary of the section below. | Dawn Clements, who has died aged 79, urged people to get vaccinated after the death of England and Birmingham City footballer Jeff Hall in 1959.
Mrs Clements, from Kidderminster, Worcestershire, has been posthumously awarded a British Empire Medal.
Her second husband, Allen Clements, said she was "proud" to be honoured.
Mr Hall died from the disease at the peak of his career aged 29. Take-up of the polio vaccine had been slow in the 1950s but Mrs Clements' campaign is credited with inspiring people to get vaccinated.
Mrs Clements, who died at the end of last month, has been posthumously awarded a British Empire Medal for services to the promotion of polio immunisation.
Mr Clements, 74, said he would receive the honour on her behalf.
He said: "She was... proud that somebody had thought about her for what she'd done... She didn't ask for any reward.
"All she was thinking about was her fellow human beings. She would give you the last penny out of her purse. She was an angel."
He said she was asked to go on TV and radio to publicise the issue because her first husband, who was killed by polio "in a matter of days," was a "well-known personality".
Mr Clements said: "It was a huge achievement. After she went on TV and radio, people were queuing up in droves outside doctors... to be immunised."
The British Polio Fellowship said there are many people alive and well "who owe her a huge debt of gratitude".
Her funeral will be held at St Alphege Church, Solihull, on 16 June. | A woman credited with raising awareness of polio's dangers after her footballer husband died has been included in the Queen's Birthday Honours list. |
Please summarize the following text. | At a time when the spread of surveillance tech is stoking controversy, I decided to install an app-controlled internet camera in my flat.
The gadget allowed me to look and listen in to my fiancee and pet cat's living-room activities at any time, and would send me an alert if it detected movement or noise I might be interested in.
A night-vision mode meant the dark offered no respite, and just in case I missed anything there was also the opportunity to review and download a time-lapse clip of recent events.
Paula, my partner, was rather nonplussed by the development.
"It's the devil's work," she declared on being introduced to the kit.
"I don't like this, I feel like I'm on Big Brother. I can't pick my nose anymore."
Explaining the experiment to others also raised issues.
My brother asked if we were indulging in some twisted PornHub fantasy, and even my tech-savvy work colleagues struggled to see the appeal.
But I was curious: would getting increased access to Paula and Miggy's private lives over a two-week period make us closer, or just prove a creep-out?
Things did not get off to an auspicious start.
The unit I was testing - the Withings Home - is deliberately designed to blend in, meaning it is easy to forget it is there.
This almost caused a prenuptial catastrophe.
On the first morning of our experiment, I was woken by a notification that prompted me to watch a brief video of an activity the camera had just captured.
It showed Paula unpacking her wedding dress for a quick twirl while she thought I was still dozing.
Luck alone meant the clip cut out before the bridal gown swung into full view.
After revealing this, my Brazilian partner became hugely self-conscious of the lounge-based "intruder". Over the course of the rest of the weekend, she made and received calls to her family in other rooms of the flat even though I do not speak Portuguese, so would not benefit from listening in.
What surprised me was how briefly this transition period lasted before her behaviour returned to normal.
A few ground rules probably helped.
Top of the list: no lurking in a remote location without revealing that I was connected.
This was relatively easy to achieve because I could talk through the camera's on-board speaker via an associated tablet and smartphone app to flag my presence.
It also helped that it soon became clear the main attraction, for both Paula and me, was watching our housebound pet - both via a high-definition live stream and a compressed recap of his activities at the end of the day.
Logging in for feline feeds, it turns out, is not only addictive but feels substantially less shameful than doing the same to a human.
But that is not to say it was a guilt-free experience.
In my imagination, during our long hours away from home, Miggy would stroll round the flat, play with his toys, scratch his post and generally engage in an elaborate domestic exercise programme.
What we discovered was that after staring at the window for a few minutes to see if we would return, he would slump on to the sofa and remain there for 15 hours or more.
As a result I now make more of a fuss of him when we are in.
But the discovery that he lets out three short, sharp, cute mews when he hears us at the front door hardly makes up for the fact I am now struck by pangs of conscience every time I go out.
There were benefits to the system.
Discovering that Paula had held up an "I love you" sign to the camera while I was at the gym was particularly heart-warming.
The camera also proved useful when we went away for a long weekend and could see that our neighbours had repeatedly popped in to keep Miggy company, although in retrospect we should have warned them of the gadget's existence in advance.
But there was more than a modicum of relief when I unplugged the camera and put it away for the last time.
The Home, and competing devices including Google's Dropcam, Netatmo's Welcome and Xiaomi's Yi Smart, are marketed as ways to help parents keep an eye on their children, and families as a whole capture memories that would otherwise be lost.
The companies also suggest that owning such kit acts as a deterrent to thieves whose images would be stored online, even if they took the cameras as part of their haul.
When I quizzed Withings' brand manager Lucie Broto about her product, she suggested that even pets could benefit. She suggested speaking to my cat while I was out to entertain him.
I suspect my disembodied voice would be more likely to freak him out.
More telling was her revelation, when pressed, that her boyfriend often turns their copy of the Home to face the wall or even unplugs it when he is at home alone in their Paris apartment.
After a fortnight of being put under the internet's equivalent of the microscope, the last word deservedly goes to Paula: "These things need to have a purpose. For security you could set up an alarm at the door.
"It seems to me they're more about having control over other people in the house.
"One of the ads they use shows a little kid holding up a drawing to the camera, but in reality it will be about the parents checking when their children came home and if they did their homework. Or jealous boyfriends checking what their other half is doing.
"It's an intrusion of privacy, I felt like someone had bugged our home." | It seems almost perverse. |

A new book claims the 1985 blaze was just one of at least nine fires at businesses owned or associated with the then chairman Stafford Heginbotham.
Sir Oliver Popplewell has stood by his verdict the fire, which killed 56 people, was an accident.
He said police should look at the other fires to see if they were "sinister".
The book's author Martin Fletcher lost three generations of his family in the fire.
Mr Fletcher, who was 12 at the time of the blaze, escaped from the stand at Valley Parade, but his father, uncle, grandfather and younger brother all died.
He claims to have uncovered evidence Mr Heginbotham was in dire financial trouble at the time.
Speaking to BBC Radio Leeds, Sir Oliver said: "I'm sorry to spoil what is obviously a very good story, I'm afraid is nonsense for many reasons."
The retired judge said the main flaw in the argument that the fire was arson was the stand involved had no insurance value because it was due for demolition.
He said the fire was examined by experienced and thorough investigators who found nothing suspicious. And he said no question of arson was ever raised in civil legal proceedings.
The Popplewell inquiry, held three weeks after the disaster, ruled the fire was started by a spectator dropping a cigarette which ignited into rubbish that had accumulated under an old timber stand.
Mr Fletcher, whose book is being serialised by the Guardian, said the inquiry did not look at the finances of Mr Heginbotham, who died in 1995.
The book does not make any direct allegations but Mr Fletcher says the chairman's history with fires, which he claims resulted in payouts totalling about £27m in today's terms, warranted further investigation.
Sir Oliver said although he could understand previous fires raising suspicions, the inquiry was conducted "perfectly properly".
However, he said the police should investigate the cause of the other fires allegedly connected to Mr Heginbotham.
Sir Oliver said: "I don't think it's going to affect what we decided but I think it is important from a public point of view that the police look at the other fires and see if there was anything sinister."
Det Supt Mark Ridley, of West Yorkshire Police's Homicide and Major Enquiry Team, said: "Should any evidence come to light which was not available to Her Majesty's Coroner at the original inquest, then we will consider its significance and take appropriate action." | Olympic champion Claressa Shields will contest the first women's boxing match to achieve main-event status on premium television in the United States.

Summarize the following excerpt. | Sharon Partington stood down after she was suspended by Southport and Ormskirk Hospital NHS Trust following whistleblowing complaints last year.
The trust said it was "obliged to complete the disciplinary process".
Former chief operating officer Sheilah Finnegan, who has since retired, was cleared of misconduct.
Chief executive Jonathan Parry was sacked last month amid the allegations, the details of which have never been revealed.
The trust said it was required to continue with the disciplinary process due to the former staff members' seniority.
In a statement, the trust said: "It was determined that the former director of human resources would have been dismissed as a consequence of gross misconduct had she remained in employment.
"Ms Partington has the right of appeal against the decision."
The disciplinary panel ruled that no action would have been taken against Ms Finnegan.
The trust's deputy director of performance, Richard McCarthy, was cleared of misconduct at an earlier hearing.
Chairman Sue Musson said she would like to "acknowledge the bravery of the individual who came forward and spoke out about their concerns".
She said the "overriding objective" had been to handle the matter "appropriately and fairly".
"Following this difficult time for everyone concerned, the trust now has an opportunity to focus on the future," she added.
However, Southport councillor and local Liberal Democrat NHS spokesman Tony Dawson criticised the process.
He said: "Two valued NHS employees who had given many years of service to the local hospital were publicly placed in the firing line and hung out to dry when they were apparently without fault.
"Surely, the inquiry which now needs to be held is into the competence and actions of the people who decided to suspend the four managers in the way that they did originally."

Summarize the following excerpt. | The "maximum" level the Home Office has set aside for the new three-year contract is 10 times what was agreed when it was last advertised in 2011.
The department placed an advert in July inviting applications for the contract.
The successful bidder, which has yet to be announced, will be responsible for searches at Calais and Dunkirk ports, and Eurotunnel's terminal at Coquelles.
The current contract was awarded to Eamus Cork Solutions in 2011, with a value of £8m for three years, and was later extended for a further two years.
The Home Office said the scale of that service had increased over the contract period to meet "operational needs".
It said it was now looking for an "expanded level of service", but expected the new contract to be for "significantly less" than £80m.
The Home Office says the new agreement has an "estimated value" of £80m, excluding VAT, though officials say that is a "maximum" amount and no final figure has been decided.
According to details of the procurement, the contractor would have to provide 40 authorised search officers 24 hours a day for 365 days a year.
Three of the officers must also be trained as detainee custody officers.
Duties would include searching freight, tourist vehicles and passengers heading to the UK, and escorting and detaining people for up to three hours.
The contract is for three years, with the possibility of an extension for one or two more years.
The Jungle camp in Calais has become the focal point of France's refugee crisis, with about 7,000 people living there.
Last month the UK and France pledged to work together and "step up" moves to improve the migrant situation in Calais.

Debate over border controls was a key issue in the EU referendum campaign, with David Cameron claiming the Jungle could move to England if the UK left the EU.
But just weeks after the warning, the then-PM and French President Francois Hollande agreed a "mutual commitment" to keep it in place. After the Brexit vote, new PM Theresa May and Mr Hollande reiterated the commitment.
The community group For Stocksbridge Leisure Centre took over the facility north of Sheffield, and have now secured funding for the main pool.

Both were left out of the team for Sunday's World Cup quarter-final with Australia but Vern Cotter can alter his side up until an hour before kick-off.
Scottish Rugby chief executive Mark Dodson said "justice has been done".
"Ross and Jonny are now free to re-join the tournament, ahead of the biggest game for Scottish Rugby in recent years," he added.
"We find it hugely disappointing they were put in this position by a judicial process, which is inconsistent and unfair. Justice delayed is justice denied.
"It is regrettable that this has overshadowed a massive week for the sport and our focus continues to be on the match against Australia."
The appeals were formally lodged on Friday and heard on Saturday by a committee chaired by Justice Lex Mpati, from South Africa, sitting with Justice Graeme Mew from Canada and Robbie Deans from New Zealand.
Scottish Rugby challenged the length of ban, not the guilty verdict.
And, a statement on the Rugby World Cup website read: "Having conducted a detailed review of all the evidence, including new submissions from the players and their representatives, along with all available camera angles, the appeal committee dismissed the finding that the players had committed an act of foul play as the player had not been dropped or driven and therefore the tackle was not dangerous.
"The players are therefore free to play again immediately."

At present, there is no channel for Scottish referees to outline their reasoning.
"If there was an opportunity, at times it would be good to explain decisions, but it is not my decision," he said.
"Right after a match isn't necessarily a good time because sometimes people would judge too quickly."
Collum explained: "Even when I'm judging my own performances, sometimes it's better to watch a match two or three days after rather than the evening of the match because sometimes you are too raw.
"But any opportunity when the Scottish FA ask me to speak to the media, I am happy to speak to the media."
Collum stressed how much hurt and disappointment officials feel after making an incorrect decision.
But he thinks his appointment to a Champions League quarter-final this season is an indication that Scottish referees are highly regarded across Europe.
"When I was a very young boy, interested in football, I never dreamt I would walk out and be on the field for a Champions League quarter final," he said.
"It is what dreams are made of, not just for me but the other five guys who accompanied me in that match.
"Anybody who is wanting to knock Scottish refereeing, you don't just get these appointments by chance - it is about performance and also performance domestically.
"We are not just judged only on Uefa matches. We are also judged on our performance in domestic matches as well."
Collum is taking charge of Inverness CT v Falkirk at Hampden on Saturday, his second Scottish Cup final, and he will be thoroughly prepared.
"People think that referees come on a Saturday and put their kit on, referee the match then forget about it until the next Saturday or next appointment comes in," he added.
"That's far from the truth. I can tell you on a Saturday or Sunday night whenever I've rewound the clip a hundred times, my wife is a wee bit fed up with that and my kids can't watch their cartoons.
"We take it very seriously. We are always trying to improve.
"We try to dust ourselves down from the mistakes, look at the mistake, see how we're going to improve on it.

Can you summarize the following paragraph? | HMS Hampshire was carrying Lord Kitchener, one of the key figures in World War One, from Scapa Flow for talks with the Tsar of Russia in 1916.
He was among 737 killed after it struck a mine and sank. Only 12 survived.
A stone wall with the names of all those lost in the sinking will be unveiled on Sunday evening, as part of a series of weekend events.
The sinking happened on 5 June 1916, when HMS Hampshire struck a mine while tackling a force nine gale less than two miles off shore.
It was just days after thousands of sailors died during the Battle of Jutland.
After the war, a stone tower was built on sea cliffs overlooking the waters where the wreck lies.
Until now only Lord Kitchener's name has been commemorated at the site.
The unveiling of the memorial wall is due to be held at 20:45 on Sunday.
One of those who died was 38-year-old father-of-seven William Cake.
Granddaughter Jackie Baynes said: "William's body was found on the shore.
"It is thought that he died of hypothermia, as his fingers and nails were badly cut and broken through his efforts to pull himself up the beach.
"Maybe he would have lived if local people had not been stopped from going to rescue survivors.

Summarize this article briefly. | BBC Scotland has learned the first releases could take place as early as next summer subject to checks and consultations.
The golden eagle is a symbol of the Highlands but scientists say it should be equally at home further south.
There are no more than four breeding pairs there and the birds have had limited nesting success.
If all goes according to plan, as many as eight birds will be released each summer, over the next three to five years.
A report published by Scottish Natural Heritage in 2014 found the area could support between 11 and 13 pairs of golden eagles.
Some experts believe the figure could be higher still, with as many as 16 breeding pairs.
Golden eagles have all but disappeared in the north of England.
It is thought the relocated birds could eventually help the species extend its range back into Cumbria and Northumberland.
Illegal persecution remains a serious concern, but the environment minister, Dr Aileen McLeod, vowed it would "not be tolerated under any circumstances".
She said: "It is particularly encouraging to see so many partners working hard to return golden eagles to the skies above the South of Scotland, in a way that enables grouse shooting to co-exist alongside birds of prey.
"The Scottish government has already taken action to put an end to the illegal killing of wild birds and I will continue to take whatever steps are necessary, which could include further tightening the law."
The South of Scotland Golden Eagle Project is supported by Buccleuch Estates, the landowners' organisation Scottish Land and Estates, RSPB Scotland and Scottish Natural Heritage.
Chief Executive of Scottish Land and Estates, Doug McAdam, told BBC Scotland: "Landowners value golden eagles, they are one of our most iconic birds and I think people will work hard with us to make this project a success.
"Often landowners are portrayed as the villain here and against golden eagles and nothing could be further from the truth."
Duncan Orr-Ewing of RSPB Scotland said: "The initial scoping work by the partnership is showing healthy prospects for a thriving golden eagle population in this area.
"We hope to secure official approval in due course to make this project a reality, following engagement with the local community."
Dr Adam Smith of the Game and Wildlife Conservation Trust argued persecution was only one factor in the golden eagles' decline in southern Scotland.
He said: "It's absolutely not the only cause. One of the major causes was the amount of forestry expansion.
"Golden eagles do not use these dark, dense conifer forests effectively."
Dr Smith said other factors included the availability of prey, disturbance and weather conditions.
Mr Orr-Ewing of RSPB Scotland said the significance of persecution should not be underestimated.
He said: "We've certainly had cases of golden eagles being shot and poisoned in recent years.
"Indeed, this project originated after an appalling incident five or six years ago in which one of the only breeding adults in the Scottish Borders was found illegally poisoned." | Golden eagles taken from nests in the Highlands and Islands may be released in southern Scotland. |

Gujarat has been particularly alert to incidents of violence since 2002 when religious riots left at least 1,000 people dead, most of them Muslims.
Patels, who comprise some 20% of Gujarat's population, control India's thriving diamond cutting and polishing industry and are among the most prosperous businessmen and farmers in Gujarat.
But they complain that they are denied college places because of affirmative action to ensure those below them in India's complex social structure have access.
And they say they have been affected by a slowdown in small and medium industries in Gujarat which has led to a drying up of employment opportunities.
Patels are now demanding affirmative action and classification as Other Backward Classes (OBCs) so that they are entitled to quotas in state-run education centres and in government jobs.
OBC refers to the castes - in the middle of the Hindu caste hierarchy - who do not face so much exclusion or isolation in society but have been traditionally socially and economically disadvantaged. | Tension prevails in India's Gujarat state where two days of caste-related violence has left eight people dead. |

Rebecca May Cressey thought they were just going diving for her birthday, but Steven Purdiew had enlisted Skegness Aquarium staff to help him propose.
Miss Cressey saw a board asking "Will you marry me?" then put her thumbs up to say she would.
The couple, from Somercotes in Derbyshire, now plan to get married in a year or two.
Miss Cressey, who turned 23 on Monday, said: "I suspected something when I saw that my mum and dad were there because I knew they weren't supposed to be there and then I saw them through the glass window.
"I just wanted to cry but I thought I'd best not cry because I was concentrating too much on breathing you see, it's quite difficult."
Mr Purdiew, 30, thanked the aquarium staff for helping him propose on Saturday.
"The staff had a board made for us with a question on it because obviously you can't talk very well under the water," he said.
"I thought Rebecca would have said yes because I think she's been hinting for a long enough time."

Please provide a concise summary of the following section. | It's thought the Irish Setter died after eating scraps of beef laced with poison given to him in a holding area while he was waiting to compete.
Jagger finished second in his class behind another dog owned by Aleksandra Lauwers and Jeremy Bott.
Mr Bott thinks the person responsible could have had a grudge against dogs, or Crufts itself, but doesn't think another breeder would have targeted his animal.
Mr Bott also told a dog magazine that Jagger could have been the victim of mistaken identity, saying his Champion Irish Setter, Thendara Pot Noodle, which won its class, may have been the intended target.
Ms Lauwers says Jagger died in her son's arms after returning to Belgium at the weekend.
So why was a dog targeted at this year's Crufts?
The stakes can be high at dog competitions.
Although the best in show winnings are only £100, breeders can make thousands more from the puppies of successful dogs.
The offspring of champions can sell for more than £1,500 per puppy.
Sponsorship, TV roles and appearances can bring in extra cash.
Shortly after last year's Crufts, thieves broke into a house in East Yorkshire and stole five Chihuahuas, including Xena, who had been named best Chihuahua puppy at the show.
The dogs were found abandoned several days later, more than 100 miles away.
But there are big costs involved in showing dogs, including paying for a handler, transport costs, hotels, grooming supplies, training, show gear, time off work and show fees.
Less extreme ways of making sure a certain dog wins have been going on for years.
In 1996 a breeder was banned after giving a Chihuahua Valium at another show in Blackpool, the year before.
Other dirty tricks in the past are reported to have included chewing gum being put in the coats of competing dogs and slipping laxatives or tranquilisers into their water.
Owners are even reported to have put females in heat into competition in the past without masking its scent, sending male rivals into a frenzy.
This year's Crufts involved almost 22,000 dogs, 2,987 of them from abroad - three times more than six years ago.
The lifting of the six-month quarantine period in 2001 imposed on dogs and cats coming into Britain opened the doors to more foreign contenders.
France led the pack this year with 377 dogs.
But the mix of foreign dogs, from countries as far afield as South Korea, Malaysia, Argentina and Bermuda, has not been universally welcomed.
Some UK breeders have complained that judges are encouraged to hand awards to foreign entrants to keep up the lucrative international interest in the competition.
The Kennel Club says there is no favouritism towards foreign dogs and has defended the competition's global nature.
The poisoned dog Jagger was based in Belgium.
This year's Crufts was won by a US-bred and Russian-owned black Scottish Terrier called McVan's to Russia With Love, or Knopa for short.
The BBC pulled out of showing Crufts in 2008 after a documentary claimed the pedigree breeding process put dogs' appearances above their health and resulted in high levels of deformity and genetic illnesses.
The show is now televised by Channel 4.
The Kennel Club says it has introduced new standards and stricter health checks since 2008.
Dogs from 15 high-profile breeds including basset hounds, bulldogs and pugs must be checked by vets before their awards are confirmed.
But the event is still targeted by animal-rights groups.
The best in show award on Sunday was disrupted when a supporter of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (Peta) ran onstage carrying a sign reading Mutts Against Crufts.
Peta director Mimi Bekhechi said that Crufts' promotion of "breedism" was "the dog or cat equivalent to racism".
Organisers say that there is a place for mutts at Crufts.
Crossbreeds compete in skill and agility competitions, and have their own prize, the Scruffts trophy.

The new coin will be available in silver and gold to mark the occasion.
Director of commemorative coin Shane Bissett said: "It is only appropriate that we commemorate this significant occasion with the release of a special coin."
The coins' design will be approved by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, the Queen and the Chancellor George Osborne.
It will then be revealed in the next couple of weeks.
A limited edition £5 coin was also issued by the Mint, based in Llantrisant, Rhondda Cynon Taff, to mark the princess's birth on 2 May.
The character will be used to promote messages about women's empowerment and gender-based violence, the UN said.
DC Entertainment president Diane Nelson will accept the role for her company's comic book, TV and film character at a ceremony on 21 October.
The DC comics site hinted that actresses who have played Wonder Women will also attend the event.
The campaign is being sponsored by Warner Bros and DC Entertainment who are supporting the UN and Unicef's year-long campaign for gender equality and women's empowerment.
The UN has itself come under some criticism for having a lack of gender parity in senior roles. Despite campaigns there has never been a female Secretary General and one analysis found that in 2015 nine of 10 senior leadership jobs went to men.
Comics site The Mary Sue welcomed the announcement. "Wonder Woman is a great, easily-recognisable symbol of what women can become once freed from a patriarchal society", it said.
But the UK Women's Equality Party said it was "fittingly comic that the UN could not think of a single human woman who could take on this role".
Party leader Sophie Walker said: "I meet extraordinary women every day: women who have survived violence, or defied gender norms to ascend to the top of a hostile industry, or blazed a trail in the arts or media or sport or health.
"These women are truly superheroes. They don't wear hotpants, they don't have the power to wield Thor's hammer - they change lives, and they are the role models our young people need to see."
The ceremony will be held on the 75th anniversary of the comic book character. Created by William Moulton Marston she first came to the public's attention in October 1941.
DC Comics said her story was "meant to test her appeal at a time when female superheroes were rare".
When it became clear the public had quickly taken to her, the company decided to give her her own title and independence.
Wonder Woman - an Amazonian from the all-female paradise of Themyscira - masquerades as Diana Prince, whose occupations include an army nurse, until her services are called on by a society in peril.
Last month DC Comic writer Greg Rucka claimed Wonder Woman "must be queer", saying she has had relationships with other women.
She was most famously played by actress Lynda Carter in the hit US TV series that ran from 1975-79. Carter's depiction of the superhero is still seen by many as the ultimate Wonder Woman.
There is also an upcoming Wonder Woman film starring Gal Gadot of Batman v Superman fame, due out in the UK next year.

What is the brief summary of the provided content? | Nick Hardwick, the Chief Inspector of Prisons, said in a report that remand prisoners were treated less well than convicted inmates.
The rule that they should not be housed with convicted inmates was not being observed in practice, he added.
The prison service said it was addressing issues in the report.
Mr Hardwick said remand prisoners were often treated worse than other inmates, even though there was a long-standing principle that those on remand should have rights and entitlements not available to convicted prisoners.
Speaking on BBC Radio 4's Today programme, he said remand prisoners often got "less help" preparing for life after their release.
Case Study: Jacques More, Kent
"On remand you're not treated differently to convicted prisoners - especially in terms of sharing facilities or cells.
"In the first cell I was put in there were three of us and I was with two convicts who both smoked and I did not. Only when I began to have sore throat was I then moved.
"The only thing you can get on remand is more visits - but how can you do this if you can't contact the outside world?
"Worst of all you are unable to prepare a defence properly whilst in prison. Only after complaining and going to senior officers was I given help.
"Once you understand the system you can work it, so it's convicted prisoners who explain to you what you need to do.
"I've met guys on remand who were accused of all sorts of things and then proved not guilty - but they get treated like everyone else."
Jacques was on remand for about three months in May 2011.
Mr Hardwick said remand prisoners received fewer entitlements "because they have not been found guilty they simply don't get things like visits, letters, and the ability to see their solicitor".
There were two reasons for this, he continued: "One is because I think often prison officers don't know the rules that apply to remand prisoners. And secondly, they simply get muddled up in the general population, so even if prison officers do know the rules, they sometimes don't know who the remand prisoners are."
"One of the things you need is a much clearer way of distinguishing between remand and convicted prisoners, for instance some prisons would have a remand wing and they would keep them separately."
Mr Hardwick said he believed the problem had simply "slipped off the agenda", and seemed as though people had actually "forgotten" remand prisoners were there at all.
"There are some costs involved, but fundamentally this is an organisational issue. We want [prisons] to organise the system differently so remand prisoners can be distinguished and so people know who they are and make sure they get what they are entitled to."
The report is based on inspection reports for 33 local prisons, fieldwork in five jails, and focus groups with remand prisoners and managers.
It found an "unresolved disjuncture" between prison rules and what happened in practice, warning that several rules have become outdated.
Inspectors found that while the Prison Rules 1999 set out legally binding entitlements for remand prisoners, appearing to suggest remand and sentenced prisoners should not be required to share a cell under any circumstances, Prison Service policy gave discretion to governors and sharing mixed cells was "the norm".
Annually between 12,000 and 13,000 prisoners are held on remand, for an average of nine weeks. Each prison place costs £40,000 a year.
Nearly a quarter of remand prisoners reported feeling depressed or suicidal when they arrived but the report said they had problems accessing welfare services.
Some remand prisoners found it difficult to maintain contact with solicitors and attend education courses.
Others were restricted from exercising their right to wear their own clothes and to vote in elections.
More than a third said they had a drug or mental health problem and nearly half had problems obtaining bail information, the inspectors said.
The report also found almost a fifth of defendants held on remand were acquitted, and nearly a quarter were handed a non-custodial sentence.
Michael Spurr, chief executive of the National Offender Management Service, said: "This report has raised some important issues which we are addressing.
"Our existing policies recognise the distinction between remand and sentenced prisoners and set out the privileges and entitlements that reflect remand prisoners' status.
"We have already taken action to reinforce requirements on cell sharing and access to work for remand prisoners." | The way prisoners on remand in England and Wales are held should be changed to improve fairness and reduce costs, a report has said. |

Germany has seen a sharp rise in attacks on asylum centres, as it deals with record numbers of arrivals.
Earlier, police in Hungary fired tear gas at migrants at a reception camp.
They tried to disperse crowds amid unrest at the centre in Roszke, on the Serbian border. Hungary has said it is considering the use of troops to secure the border.
After visiting the centre in Heidenau, Mrs Merkel said Germany was facing a "gigantic challenge".
The country expects up to 800,000 asylum applications in 2015 - more than any other EU country.
"There is no tolerance for those people who question the dignity of others, no tolerance for those who are not willing to help where legal and human help is required," Mrs Merkel told reporters.
She condemned violent protests as "shameful" and "vile".
On a separate visit to an asylum centre in Berlin, President Joachim Gauck praised volunteers who had shown a "bright Germany full of light", rather than the "dark Germany" that arose from attacks on asylum seekers.
Dozens of police were hurt at the weekend when neo-Nazis and other right-wing extremists hurled bottles and fireworks.
During Mrs Merkel's visit, protesters outside the centre chanted slogans including "We are the mob", mocking remarks used by Vice Chancellor Sigmar Gabriel when he visited Heidenau.
Tracking perilous migrant journey to Germany
Why is EU struggling with migrants and asylum?
Most people in Germany are welcoming to the migrants, opinion polls suggest. But a minority are vocally opposed, with a sharp rise in attacks on housing for asylum seekers:
Mrs Merkel's government confirmed on Tuesday that it had decided to consider asylum cases from most Syrian applicants, regardless of how they entered Europe.
It said it was suspending the EU's Dublin regulation, under which asylum seekers must make their applications in the first member state they reach.
Cabinet ministers are also discussing plans to give German regions €500m (£366m) this year to help with influx of people arriving.
Many thousands of people are now following a dangerous route through Greece and the Western Balkans to reach the EU passport-free Schengen zone.
At Roszke, inside the Hungarian border with Serbia, officers used tear gas to quell unrest after migrants at the reception centre refused to be fingerprinted.
The authorities in Budapest have announced plans to send more than 2,000 extra police officers to boost border security. MPs are also set to discuss deploying troops next week.
Bulgaria says it will also send soldiers to its border with Macedonia.
Nils Muiznieks, the Council of Europe Commissioner for Human Rights, criticised both countries' plans as "ill-advised", saying "militarisation of borders is [the] wrong answer to migration".
Hungary is already building a 175km (110 mile) fence in a bid to stop migrants entering.
Officials say a record number of migrants - more than 2,500 - entered Hungary on Tuesday.
The European Commission has announced that it is releasing an additional €1.5m in humanitarian funding to Macedonia and Serbia to help cope with the crisis.

Summarize the following piece. | The Ministry of Defence (MoD) confirmed the move would happen in 2018, when HMS Ocean "reached the end of her life", despite no mention of it in Monday's Strategic Defence and Security Review.
The Devonport-based helicopter carrier and assault ship underwent a £65m upgrade in 2014.
The MoD said it would maintain a "significant amphibious capability".
It said there would be new Type 26 warships and frigates; two Queen Elizabeth-class aircraft carriers; as well as the existing fleet which includes HMS Bulwark.
When making the announcement the MoD said it was old news.
However, in 2012 ahead of the £65m refit, Defence Minister Philip Dunne said: "I am delighted that this contract will not only ensure that HMS Ocean remains a significant, highly-flexible and capable warship for years to come".
BBC South West political editor, Martyn Oates, said the announcement raised concerns for its home port of Plymouth.
"With no like-for-like replacement planned, concerns in Ocean's home port of Plymouth will focus on how many of the new ships promised by the Prime Minister yesterday will be based in the city and whether that will be enough to fill the rather large hole left by the retiring flagship."
An MoD spokesman said: "HMS Ocean will not decommission early and will continue in service as planned well into this Parliament.
"As part of the SDSR process, the decision was taken not to extend her and to decommission her in 2018, in line with her 20-year life span."

What is the summary of the given information? | Councillor Graham Hinchey said the authority still faced a real terms cut to its budget despite its grant from the Welsh Government rising by 0.3%.
The authority is looking at increasing council tax by 3.7% and making cuts of £17m.
Costs for burials as well as births, deaths and marriage registration and school meals could all rise in 2017-18.
Along with the proposed cuts, £1.5m from reserves, £1.9m from school budgets and £4.4m from the planned increased in council tax would help make up the shortfall.
The cuts are smaller than 2015-16, when £32m in savings was proposed, and 2016-17, when the shortfall was £45m.
Proposals include:
Cardiff council saw its Welsh Government grant rise by 0.3% to £428m. The overall budget for 2017-18 is £578m.
Mr Hinchey, cabinet member for corporate services and performance, said: "The provisional settlement from Welsh Government is slightly more favourable than we bargained for.
"However, it is still a cut in real terms because of price and pay inflation."
The council is asking residents to share their views on the proposals in a consultation, which runs from 10 November to 11 December.

Provide a brief summary of this section. | It's a striking departure for a Conservative Party that branded Ed Miliband's attempt to intervene in the energy markets in 2013 a "dangerous idea".
It may have been dangerous then but it's an idea whose time has come for a PM who declared herself "fed up with rip-off pricing" in a piece for today's Sun Newspaper.
It's a significant step given competition authorities looked at this issue for two years and decided that it wasn't necessary or desirable.
This is the same authority which looked at competition available to customers with pre-payment meters and decided a cap was necessary there.
In other words, it was not totally ideologically opposed to caps where competition isn't working but it considered a cap on standard tariffs a bad idea.
It said a cap would "run excessive risks of undermining the competitive process, [probably] resulting in worse outcomes for customers in the long run". Pretty clear.
The boss of the biggest of the six energy suppliers, Centrica's Iain Conn, has warned that a reduction in competition and investment are among the possible unintended consequences of a cap.
Even consumer groups are worried that consumers will become less bothered trying to find a good deal if they think the government is doing it for them.
But Stephen Fitzpatrick, the chief executive of smaller supplier Ovo Energy, described the policy as a "bold and ambitious move" - and argued that a cap would not harm consumers or competition but rather offer customers a safety net to protect them from overcharging.
The owners of the big energy companies have taken fright and billions have been wiped off their share prices.
Shares in Centrica have fallen 15% since the start of this year and some are speculating that it may cut its dividend to shareholders to cope with an estimated £200 million hit to profits from the cap.
Speaking this morning to the BBC, Business Secretary Greg Clark said the companies should look at ways to become more efficient. That usually means job cuts.
The energy companies can't say they weren't warned. Even before Theresa May became Prime Minister, she told the Conservative Party conference she was prepared to intervene in dysfunctional markets. There were no prizes for guessing which markets she meant.
Nevertheless it's a new direction for her party and I'm told senior ministers were split over its wisdom.
It is the most significant policy to date in Theresa May's attempt to rebrand the Conservatives as the party of the worker and consumer rather than big business and its bosses.
Her mother, 27, was given a nine-month suspended sentenced for initially lying about how her daughter was injured.
The pair, who have since separated, cannot be named to protect the identity of the child.
The attack happened in the home they shared in County Antrim in November 2013 while the girl's mother was at an evening class.
The judge at Antrim crown court said that despite being found guilty by a jury the man continued to deny the offence.
He said this was an aggregating factor in determining the sentence.
The judge said the girl's injuries were not accidental and the man's sentence reflected his lack of remorse.
He will serve a minimum of seven years in prison with the remainder on licence.
The judge requested a further three years be added to his licence period to protect the public from "a high-risk reoffender".

The disorder marred the end of the Hibs v Rangers cup final, which ended in a 3-2 victory for the Edinburgh side.
Skills Development Scotland and the Scottish government-backed Digital Technologies Skills Group said it was the economy's fastest-growing sector.
Their report found that it accounted for 5% of Scotland's total business base.
It also suggested that the sector now employed 2% of the national workforce.
The report said that was creating "unprecedented demand" for digital skills.
It is estimated that Scotland has up to 12,800 tech job opportunities annually - a 16% increase on previous demand forecasts of 11,000.
According to the report, the number of tech businesses rose by 53% between 2010 and 2015 - almost three times as fast as businesses across Scotland as a whole (19%).
Micro-businesses, employing between one and 10 employees, accounted for 95% of firms in the sector.
The report also found that more than 60,000 people were employed in tech businesses across Scotland. The top three employment areas were Glasgow (29%), Edinburgh (23%) and West Lothian (9%).
Reacting to the findings, Finance Secretary Derek Mackay said: "Scotland has a proud tradition as a digital leader and today this government is putting digital technology at the heart of everything we do, from reforming our public services to boosting digital skills and fostering our tech sector.
"In March this year we published our ambitious, refreshed, digital strategy which reflects our vision for this area by aiming to create 150,000 digital jobs, ensuring all premises have access to broadband speeds of at least 30Mbps by 2021, and integrating digital into schools and further education.
"Today's report is good news and underlines the importance of digital skills to our economic and inclusive growth."
Claire Gillespie, from Skills Development Scotland, said: "The digital technologies sector is expanding and is a key contributor to the economic growth and global competitiveness of every sector in Scotland.
"This growth is creating significant job opportunities for skilled workers, particularly young people and other new entrants across a wide range of roles.

What is the summary of the given information? | Scientists sequenced the genome of a one-year-old boy who died in what is now Montana about 12,500 years ago.
Some researchers have raised questions about the origins of early Americans, with one theory even proposing a link to Ice Age Europeans.
But the Nature study places the origins of these ancient people in Asia.
The infant was a member of the Clovis people, a widespread, sophisticated Ice Age culture in North America. They appeared in America about 13,000 years ago and hunted mammoth, mastodon and bison.
The boy's remains, uncovered at the Anzick Site in Montana in 1968, were associated with distinctive Clovis stone tools. In fact, it is the only known skeleton directly linked to artefacts from this culture.
But the origins of the Clovis people, and who they are related to today, has been the subject of intense discussion.
Eske Willerslev, from the University of Copenhagen, and his colleagues were able to extract DNA from the bones of the Anzick boy and map his genome (the genetic information contained in the nucleus of his cells).
The researchers found that around 80% of today's Native Americans are related to the "clan" from which the boy came.
The result casts doubt on theories that the Clovis were descended from Europeans or colonists from Oceania.
The former theory relies, in part, on close similarities between Clovis tools and those of the Solutrean culture, which thrived in Ice Age France and Spain.
The latest results place the homeland for Native American peoples - including the Clovis - in Siberia.
Interestingly, however, the teams found that Native American ancestors coming in from Asia split into two groups.
One group was ancestral to native peoples presently living in Canada and the other one - which is represented by the Clovis boy - was ancestral to virtually all Native Americans in South America and Mexico.
In the US, many native groups are suspicious of contributing to genetic surveys, hampering the collection of data. | Present-day Native Americans are descended from some of the continent's earliest settlers, a genetic study suggests. |
Write a concise summary of the provided excerpt. | Members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport (RMT) union voted 96% in favour of beginning industrial action.
The union said drivers on the new weekend service, which launched in August, were being blocked from applying for full-time jobs.
A London Underground spokesman said the service had been running in line with agreements reached with the unions and urged the RMT to continue talks.
Unions say Night Tube drivers have been prevented from moving into vacant full-time positions for at least 18 months and do not qualify for overtime pay because they only work 16 hours a week.
RMT general secretary Mick Cash said: "It is outrageous that London Underground have decided to discriminate against their Night Tube drivers.
"This is a senseless and damaging policy that picks out one group of staff for negative treatment and of course the drivers are angry and that is why our members have voted overwhelmingly for action."
The drivers' union Aslef is also balloting its members for strikes, with the result due on Thursday.
"Night Tube services have been running since August last year in line with agreements reached with the unions. We've met with the RMT to discuss and resolve the new issues that they have.
"We have invited the RMT to more talks later this week and I encourage them to continue discussions with us rather than threaten industrial action."
Separately, Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs) on the Tube are also threatening strike action because of shift pattern changes that could leave them stranded.
British Transport Police (BTP) wants a third of all shifts to end at 01:00 in response to "changing policing needs".
The TSSA union said a late finish meant many PCSOs would have no safe route home on public transport after work.
BTP said it was in talks with the TSSA.
The 20-year-old has signed a five-year contract after leaving Schalke.
City manager Pep Guardiola said: "He is a special talent and an exciting player that I think our supporters will enjoy watching."
Sane, who helped Germany reach the semi-finals at Euro 2016, scored eight goals in 33 Bundesliga appearances last season as Schalke finished fifth.
"He has great technical ability, is comfortable on the ball and there is much to admire about the way he plays football," Guardiola added.
"He is fast, enjoys creating chances for others, works hard for the team and scores goals too. He also has a very positive attitude and will fit in well.
"At 20, he is still developing as a player but he is already a member of the German national side and I think he will be a fantastic asset to our club."
Sane said one of the reasons for joining City was to work with Guardiola.
"I think he can make me a more complete player," said Sane.
"I think I will need a bit of time to start with because it's another league and there's a different style of play, but I think I can adapt very quickly." | Drivers on London's Night Tube have voted to strike in a row over jobs.

Mrs Elliott said she was a "very happy lady" and thanked everyone who had contacted her following the appeal.
"Many, many kind people out there. Thank you everyone," she wrote.
The man, who is aged in his 40s, was taken to hospital with serious injuries after the attack at a house in Vicarage Hill, Westerham, on Sunday.
Kent Police said the injuries inflicted by the dogs were not life threatening.
Officers in riot gear contained the animals in one room of the property before they were removed.
The animals were then sedated by specialists, assisted by an RSPCA inspector and an independent vet.
Firearms officers were called to the scene and the road outside the property was closed temporarily to "ensure public safety".

The High Court in Glasgow heard the men were known to each other and had some "minor confrontations" beforehand.
Sutherland was originally charged with attempted murder but had a guilty plea accepted to a reduced charge of assault to severe injury and danger of life.
Judge Lady Stacey told Sutherland that there was "no excuse" to go out armed with a knife and use it.
The judge said the jail-term would have been six years, but for his guilty plea.
Prosecutor Jo McDonald previously told the court that the attack happened at the club on 20 December last year.

Patients with the disease are supposed to be offered follow-up eye examinations after being diagnosed.
But it has emerged that since 2010 almost 500 were not given tests, which can detect retinal damage caused by increased blood sugar levels.
Health officials have written to those affected offering new appointments.
Diabetic retinopathy is a common complication of diabetes and occurs when high blood sugar levels damage the cells at the back of the eye. If untreated it can cause blindness.
But it has emerged that systems to ensure those with the disease were referred for specialist eye examinations at local clinics failed to kick in.
The University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay NHS Trust said it was investigating how the errors occurred.
Diabetes UK said it was "concerned" that patients had not been regularly checked.
A spokeswoman said: "Diabetic retinopathy doesn't have any obvious symptoms in the early stages. You wouldn't know you had a problem with your eyes and when you did notice yourself the damage is quite severe."
Sheila O'Brien of Cumbria Societies for the Blind said: "It's not very good that this has happened. But we are pleased that they've now found out about it and are investigating what went wrong.
"What is really important now is that they make sure nothing like this happens again."
It is estimated that 160 people in the Morecambe Bay area were affected, together with 143 in North Cumbria and almost 200 in the Blackpool area.
George Nasmyth, The University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay NHS Foundation Trust's deputy medical director, said: "We are aware of an issue affecting a number of our diabetes patients and their annual eye screening appointments.
"We are working closely with the Diabetic Eye Screening Programme, NHS England and other NHS Trusts to understand what exactly happened, and ensure that we all learn from this and prevent it from happening again.
"All affected patients have been written to directly and invited to attend a screening appointment.

Please provide a summary for the content below. | The Foxes, who are now level on points with leaders Arsenal, looked like they were heading for a fourth league game without a goal until unmarked Huth headed home Christian Fuchs' corner.
Harry Kane had Spurs' best chance when his effort was touched on to the bar by keeper Kasper Schmeichel.
Foxes striker Jamie Vardy returned from groin surgery but had a quiet game.
It was the second of three meetings between the clubs in 10 days, following Sunday's 2-2 FA Cup draw - with their replay to be shown on BBC One, next Wednesday.
Relive Leicester's win over Tottenham.
Listen: 'Leicester would be devastated not to make Champions League now'
Football Daily podcast - Does anyone want to win the league?
Media playback is not supported on this device
There had been fears Leicester's slide was beginning after three games without scoring - and they looked like making that four in a row before Huth's late goal.
But this win - which takes them seven points above fourth-placed Spurs and eight clear of West Ham in fifth - will give them real hope of finishing in the Champions League places, if not higher.
They were characteristically short of possession with only 39% - their average of 40.62% is the third lowest in the league - but they have shown they are far from a two-man team with Riyad Mahrez and Vardy, their two stars of the campaign, subdued throughout.
Maybe, but it was wasteful finishing rather than the lack of a second striker that cost Spurs against the Foxes.
Manager Mauricio Pochettino has continually insisted it is not urgent they sign a new striker to partner Kane, who is their top scorer with 11 league goals.
The England international was their sole striker against Leicester but Spurs' formation meant Erik Lamela, Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli got forward to support him regularly.
Those four had a combined 18 shots, although Kane's effort which Schmeichel touched on to the bar was one of only five shots on target the team managed.
Former England captain Alan Shearer on Match of the Day: "It's a remarkable story for Leicester. Only Manchester City have scored more goals than them.
"It was a good old-fashioned proper plant your feet, arch your back and get your neck muscles going header from Huth. Look at the power. Boof."
Ex-Germany midfielder Dietmar Hamann: "It's a blip for Spurs. They're still in a good position and favourites to reach the Champions League. The worry is the lack of form from Christian Eriksen, who hasn't scored in the league since October. They are over-reliant on Harry Kane. If he gets injured they'll be in trouble."
Leicester boss Claudio Ranieri told BBC Match of the Day: "We wanted to win but we knew it was a difficult match. Tottenham started very well and put us under pressure but we didn't lose our confidence or shape and it was difficult for them.
"In the second half it was an open match. We both had chances and we scored the goal. Unfortunately it's January, not May. There's so much work to do. We have to remain calm and believe in what we're doing."

Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino: "I'm disappointed. We created the better chances. You need to score. We need to keep calm and try to improve.
"All the stats are positive for us. It's difficult to explain - we deserved more and to win the game. In football you can get punished for one little mistake. We are going to try to analyse the game. We were unlucky tonight."
Both sides will be confident of wins on Saturday in the Premier League. Leicester visit bottom side Aston Villa, while Tottenham host third-from-bottom Sunderland.

Five men and two women face more than 60 charges, including rape and false imprisonment, over a 10-year period.
The seven defendants deny all the charges.

The woman described how she told a detective about what happened but no action was taken.
Asked by prosecutor Michelle Colborne QC how she found the detective she told the jury: "He used to come to houses where we were.
"He used to have sex with girls and he used to take drugs from people and pass them on to Ash."
The court has heard that two of the seven defendants - Arshid Hussain and Qurban Ali - were known as Mad Ash and Blind Ash respectively.
The witness did not clarify which one she was referring to.
Asked when this happened, the witness said: "It was while I was still in care."
She added: "I told him what was happening. He wrote it down in his book."
The woman, who is now 36, also told the jury no-one helped her when she was living in children's homes.
The witness replied "No" when Ms Colborne asked if there was "any one person in any of the care homes you felt you could trust?"
The woman claimed that staff at the home were only concerned about "sitting at the end of the night and writing reports up - that was it".
Arshid Hussain, 40, of High Street, East Cowick, Goole, faces 30 charges, including five counts of rape.
Qurban Ali, 53, of Clough Road, Rotherham, faces four charges, including rape and conspiracy to rape.

Some 31.42 million are in work, 478,000 up on a year ago. The employment rate is 74.1%, the joint highest since current records began in 1971.
Average earnings went up by 2.1% in the year to January including bonuses, 0.2% higher than the previous month.
Excluding bonuses, the increase was 2.2%.
"With the Chancellor [George Osborne] setting the backdrop to this afternoon's Budget as one where the global 'storm clouds' are gathering, today's labour market figures offer a ray of sunshine," said Scott Bowman, UK economist at Capital Economics.
He added that the UK's jobs recovery remained "in full swing", but cautioned that wage growth was "still fairly subdued by past standards, especially considering how much the labour market has tightened recently".
The East of England saw the biggest fall in the number of unemployed people, down by 15,000, followed by the North East of England, down by 11,000. However, Scotland saw an increase of 16,000 in the number of jobless people.
The North East still has the highest rate of unemployment, at 7.8%, and the East of England has the lowest, at 3.6%.
In all, 22.94 million people were working full-time, 302,000 more than a year earlier, while 8.48 million were working part-time, an increase of 177,000 on a year earlier.
The number of people on the claimant count in February fell by 18,000 to 716,700, said the ONS.
The unemployment figures are based on a large survey, so they are estimates rather than precise figures.
For example, the figure of a 28,000 fall in unemployment has a margin of error of plus or minus 79,000, which means the ONS is 95% confident that the actual change in unemployment is between an increase of 51,000 and a fall of 107,000.

Provide a concise overview of the following information. | Several housing associations have said they are no longer financially viable.
The flats, for the elderly or people with learning disabilities, are more expensive to build and run because they provide additional support.
Ministers say they are reviewing the sheltered housing sector "to ensure it works in the best way possible".
The National Housing Federation (NHF) has calculated that nearly 2,500 units have so far been scrapped or delayed as sheltered housing providers face losing an average of £68 a week per tenant.
David Orr, chief executive of the NHF, told the BBC: "There is real impact now.
"New homes for people with support needs - vulnerable people - that would be being built have been cancelled."
BBC News has spoken to four housing associations who confirmed their plans had needed to change:
The changes - announced in Chancellor George Osborne's Autumn Statement - will bring housing benefit rates for social housing in line with the sums paid to landlords in the private sector.
Mr Osborne said the move, which will affect England, Scotland and Wales, would deliver savings of £225m by 2020-21, and is part of a £12bn package of cuts from the welfare bill.
The cap includes sheltered housing, which is more expensive to provide due to the additional support on offer - anything from canteens to round-the-clock care staff.
The benefit will not actually be cut until April 2018 but it will affect people signing new tenancies from this April.
At one sheltered housing complex in Harrogate, the need for new development is clear - there is only one lift and the corridors are narrow.
"We need to move," said resident Frank Forkes. "It's very cramped. If the lift breaks down, it's chaos because you've people upstairs in wheelchairs."
The housing association has spent eight years developing plans for a new complex a couple of miles away.
But following the government's announcement in November, the board of Harrogate Neighbours delayed the scheme. Under the new rules, they will lose £100,000 per annum on it.
"As an organisation we have to be absolutely certain that we can afford to deliver all the services. And at the moment, it's not viable," chief executive Sue Cawthray said.
The consequences of the benefit cuts are even worse for Contour Homes in Manchester.
"We stand to lose - over the course of the 40-year life cycle of the development - if things stay as they are, £3.35m. As an organisation, we couldn't just absorb that," director of customer services Chris Langan said.
Labour described the housing benefit cut as a "catastrophe for those who can least afford it".
But a spokesman for the Department for Work and Pensions said: "We've always been clear that we value the work the supported accommodation sector does to protect the most vulnerable members of society.
"That's why we are carrying out a thorough review, working with the sector, to ensure that it works in the best way possible - which is what the NHF has asked for.
"We are also providing councils with £870m of Discretionary Housing Payments which can be paid to people in supported accommodation." | Hundreds of planned new sheltered accommodation units have been delayed or scrapped owing to proposed cuts to housing benefit, the BBC has learned. |

However, it emerged on Wednesday that England's win assured them one of the six best runners-up slots and a place in the finals in the Netherlands.
"It is a bit curious. We were confident ourselves," said coach Mark Sampson.
"We did the maths and were clear that we would be going to Holland next year, but of course you have to wait for the official governing body to give you the go-ahead.
"It was nice to get that eventually this morning. With the players all together at the airport, we had a little celebration. Not on the pitch - but at Heathrow."

England will take part in an expanded 16-team tournament with hosts Netherlands, holders Germany, France, Norway, Spain and Switzerland also certain to be there.

The hosts took advantage of poor defending to go ahead, as the ball was headed down into Martin's path, allowing him to net his third goal this term.
Huddersfield's defence was once again exposed when Scott Malone's deep cross from the left was brought down at the back post and lashed home by Kalas.
Sone Aluko rode three challenges and stood a ball up for Piazon to power a header in.
Aluko was brought down in the box at the start of the second half, with Martin slotting home the penalty.
McDonald wrapped up a convincing victory when he met Aluko's pinpoint pass to beat Ward for a fifth time and help Fulham climb to 11th in the table.
Fulham manager Slavisa Jokanovic:
"We have shown we can play good football and keep clean sheets and that we can be more competitive.
"The job is not done. We need to build on our confidence and philosophy. We are in a learning process and beginning to build some kind of identity.
"We and the supporters deserved that after waiting so long for a win. We have played well and got some points before but we couldn't find a clear way to win games.
Huddersfield manager David Wagner:
"I can leave this game very quickly behind us. We don't have to speak about any tactical problems because we had so many individual mistakes that you couldn't get anything against any opponent.
"We were very sloppy when we had the ball and in the end we totally underperformed today.
"I think Fulham were stronger in every position. We had problems everywhere. We made so many easy mistakes.
"This happens in football. It shouldn't but it does and I've always said we will have ups and downs on our journey. This was a down."

Write a brief summary of the provided content. | Jayne Eustace, 48, died in March after a battle with pericardial mesothelioma - an aggressive form of cancer.
Her husband Andy's legal team has instructed lawyers to pursue whether protection against asbestos dust should have been given to her at the ex-Oakley base.
A GCHQ spokesman said they could not comment on individual members of staff.
He added they would "deal appropriately with any legal correspondence received".
Mr Eustace said the "only way you can get [mesothelioma] is from asbestos" and he is concerned other workers might also have been affected.
"At autopsy, they took the lungs out [of Jayne] and for every gram of dried tissue she had 4,200 asbestos fibres, and she never ever worked with the stuff.
"All she did was walk along corridors to her desk, and from her desk to her car which was dusty from demolition work GCHQ was carrying out."
Before her death, Mrs Eustace recalled how a wrecking ball was used to demolish buildings close to where she was working, according to Irwin Mitchell solicitors.
"She remembered her car being dusty from the demolition works and she and her colleagues were not provided with any protective clothing or equipment whilst the maintenance work was carried out in areas containing asbestos," said lawyer Hayley Hill.
Mrs Eustace worked at Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) from 1983 to 1990, based at their Oakley site in Cheltenham.
The site was formally closed in 2012, after more than 60 years of use by the intelligence agency, when the 'doughnut' building in Benhall became the central base. | The husband of a former GCHQ worker believes on-site demolition work may have led to his wife's death. |

Provide a brief summary for the information below. | The government has created a climate in which extrajudicial killings, sexual slavery and enforced labour are all allowed to occur, its report says.
The situation has prompted hundreds of thousands of people to flee the country, the UN says.
Eritrea declined to take part in the investigation, the UN says.
President Isaias Afewerki has governed the east African nation for 22 years.
The country has never held elections since gaining independence from Ethiopia in 1993.
After a year-long investigation, the UN commission of inquiry said that Eritrea operates a vast spying and detention network, holding people without trial for years, including children.
Neighbours and family members are often drafted to inform on each other, according to the report.
"It is not law that rules Eritreans - but fear," it says.
The inquiry said that "systematic, widespread and gross human rights violations have been and are being committed in Eritrea under the authority of the Government".
The investigators are to present their findings to the UN Human Rights Council on 23 June.
Eritreans account for the second-largest group of migrants crossing the Mediterranean, after Syrians.
They added £4.96bn more in taxes in the years to 2011 than they took out in public services.
The BBC's home affairs correspondent Danny Shaw answered some of your questions on immigration in a live Twitter Q&A.
This is an edited version of the session:
Steve emails a question: Every job they take deprives a British worker of a job and can put them on benefits. Is this taken into account?
Danny answers: Not taken into account in this report, but Home Office study suggests a displacement effect when economy in recession.
Question from Craigie Watson in Leith, Edinburgh: What proportion of EU migrants fill low paid jobs?
Danny says: 13 million low-skilled workers in UK, of whom 2 million migrants, split 60-40 non-EEA and EEA, so just under 1 million from EU.
Mark emails a question: Can the country cope with a large influx of new residents in terms of housing, transport and social services?
Danny answers: Key question! If new migrants pay in more than they take out then yes, if it's invested in public services, but if not, No!
@DonnaHebblethwa asks a question: I have been going to hospital for 5 years. Do you think immigration is affecting the NHS?
Danny says: Many migrants work in NHS, but some communities with large migrant population report strains on services.
Julien emails: Other media refer to a £120 bn cost, what does this mean and how are they working it out?
Danny answers: This is UCL estimate of what non-EEA migrants cost the UK between 1995 and 2011.
@Scaley_Sapper asks: How many illegal people have been lost since arriving over here and what is happening to find and deport them?
Danny answers: No overall figure. It's an unknown unknown but Public Accounts Committee says Home Office has lost track of 50,000.
@danieldevereux asks: Why are people so opposed to immigration? More people and ideas can never be a bad thing.
Danny adds: I guess some people fear change, see their local area changing suddenly, others worried about jobs and services.
@ThePatAshworth asks a question: Migration roughly 50/50 EU/non-EU. Should government not concentrate on parts they *can* control?
Danny says: Coalition limited non-EU migration but EU migration can be controlled only if UK quits or gets approval for big restrictions.
Question by @jicci7: Why doesn't the UK have a stringent points system for immigration, such as applied in Australia/NZ/America?
Danny answers: Points system for non-EU introduced in UK by Labour in 2008, but none for EU cost of freedom of movement principle.
Question from @SamiaBadani: Why are we so focused on #EU migration? Now that we know it is positive will the rhetoric change?
Danny adds: People worry about jobs going, communities changing. As long as it's big political issue with UKIP rise, can't see much change.
@clooky asks: Would the @premierleague have to be a five-a-side league if there were no migrant workers?
Danny says: No. It'll be back to scrappy 0-0 draws, break your leg tackles, the long ball and hit and hope! | Eritrea's government may have committed crimes against humanity, including a shoot-to-kill policy on its borders, a UN investigation says.

Write a brief summary of the provided content. | The Gender and Equal Opportunity Bill was thrown out on Tuesday after some lawmakers voiced their opposition.
Rights activists say the bill would promote women's equality in marriage, inheritance and education.
Those opposed to the Equality Bill say it is not compatible with Nigerian culture and religious beliefs.
Some MPs also argued that the constitution already recognises the rights of everyone.
In Islam, women get half of men's share in inheritance and it is unacceptable for anyone to change that, a Muslim senator told the BBC.
One Christian lawmaker also quoted some sections of the bible to condemn the bill.
But the decision has been widely condemned.
Human rights activist Bukky Shonibare says it was a sad day for Nigerian women.
"It shows how backward we are and how much we want to hold on to our lopsided religious and cultural beliefs," she told the BBC's Focus on Africa radio programme.
It is unfortunate that some men who see the emancipation of women as a threat are the ones being trusted with making laws and order, she added.
"Every Senator that voted against the bill should hide in shame," said prominent actress Uche Jombo.
Some activists have started circulating a petition urging the Senators to reconsider.
The plan retains key Obamacare taxes on the wealthy, while allowing insurers to offer less coverage and imposing sharp cuts to healthcare for the poor.
The new bill aims to woo Republicans of conservative and moderate factions.
Congress is delaying its summer holiday in a bid to overturn former President Barack Obama's 2010 legislation.
The latest version of the Republican bill would retain two taxes on people earning more than $200,000 (£155,000), which have helped pay for Obamacare.
Plans for hundreds of billions of dollars in cuts to Medicaid, a healthcare programme for the poor and disabled, are largely unchanged in the Senate's revised plan.
The Better Care Reconciliation Act would also provide an extra $45bn to tackle the US opioid epidemic that is wreaking havoc in some Republican senators' constituencies.
It includes an additional $70bn to help cover so-called out-of-pocket expenses, which are medical fees not reimbursed by insurers.
Is Obamacare more popular than ever?
The bill also incorporates conservative Senator Ted Cruz's proposal to let insurers offer stripped-down, low-cost healthcare plans by ducking Obamacare rules requiring coverage for "essential" health benefits.
These include maternity and postnatal care, mental health services, addiction treatment, outpatient care, hospitalisation, emergency room visits and prescription drugs.
Insurance companies have warned that Senator Cruz's plan would harm people with pre-existing medical conditions by making their insurance unaffordable.
The Congressional Budget Office found that the previous version of the bill would leave 22 million fewer people insured over a decade.
Senate Republicans are now awaiting a new assessment from the nonpartisan score-keeper.
The Obamacare repeal has been testing Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's reputation as a master tactician.
He must conjure a compromise option that will appease both moderates and conservatives among his rank-and-file.
Democrats are united against the bill, which means that just three "no" votes among Republican senators would sink the legislation.
Republicans have a 52-48 majority in the 100-seat Senate, with Vice-President Mike Pence able to cast any tie-breaking vote.
Senators Susan Collins of Maine and Rand Paul of Kentucky appear firmly opposed to the measure.
Moderate senators such as Rob Portman of Ohio, Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska are alarmed by the planned Medicaid cuts.
Ten Republicans said they would not support the previous version of the bill.
Underlining the divisions, minutes before Mr McConnell unveiled his plan, two other Republican senators, Lindsey Graham and Bill Cassidy, offered their own healthcare proposal.
Their plan would steer much of the federal funding for health insurance to the states.
President Donald Trump, who made repeal of Obamacare a core campaign pledge, is monitoring the Senate developments while on a visit to France.
He said in an interview on Wednesday he would be "very angry" if he did not get a bill on his desk, exhorting Mr McConnell to "pull it off".
A vote is planned on the bill, should agreement emerge, next week. | Nigeria's Senate has been condemned for rejecting a proposed bill aimed at eliminating "all forms of discrimination" against women.
