The boss of one of Wales' largest health boards is appearing before assembly members to explain a decision that has left hundreds of workers at risk of losing their jobs.

Cardiff and Vale University Health Board has to find ?61.4m of savings in this financial year and a further ?56.7 million in 2013/14.

In June the health board announced plans to close almost 400 posts.

Its chief executive Adam Cairns said it faced tough choices.

But the Welsh Conservatives said the plans were "barmy" while the Unison union said any job cuts were "unnecessary".
