Trial for victims to attend parole hearings rolled out across England and Wales

A yellow weather warning for rain has come into effect in parts of England, Wales and Northern Ireland, marking a damp start to the Easter bank holiday weekend.

Changes to how death certificates are issued in England and Wales have made the grieving process more "stressful", according to bereaved families.

Prisons across England and Wales are at their highest capacity for months, with fewer cells available than at any time this year.
