Welsh Government should keep out of budget cuts - Hugh Evans

A council leader has called for the Welsh government butt out of local authority budget cuts decisions.

Hugh Evans, leader of Denbighshire council, said statutory services should not be immune from cuts if there are ways to run them more efficiently.

Councils will find out on Wednesday what their budget for 2015/16 will be.

The Welsh government said it was up to councils how they allocated resources.
