Wales Office hits back in rail electrification costs row

The First Minister says he's 'now concerned about the UK Government's intentions' over funding for electrification of the main London to South Wales railway line and the Valleys Lines.

Carwyn Jones said he still doesn't have confirmation from the UK Government that it will pay the full cost of electrification despite assurances from the Prime Minister and Welsh Secretary. He said ministers and officials continue to try to gain 'clarification' on the situation.

First Minister Carwyn Jones has begun his monthly press conference.
