Too many young people in care in England are missing out on the support from independent mentors to which they are entitled by law, says Barnardo's.

The 1989 Children's Act says councils must appoint volunteers to "visit, befriend and advise" children in care if it is in their best interests.
But research by the charity last year suggested only 3% of looked-after children were matched with a mentor.
Council bosses said there was an urgent need to recruit more volunteer mentors.
Independent mentors are unpaid and work independently of social services to build trusting and positive relationships with the children they are allocated.
The idea is that they remain consistent, not changing when placements or social workers change, sharing trips and activities and sticking up for children to ensure their rights are respected.
Researchers for Barnardo's and the Tudor Trust grant-making charity  sent out Freedom of Information requests to 152 local authorities in England.
Responses from 149 of them showed:
The report notes that a waiting list for the service may not necessarily indicate a problem - but rather that social workers value the service and are keen to refer children to it.
When councils were without waiting lists, this was often because social workers were unaware of the service or it did not exist at all, the report found.
"They work really hard to match you with someone who fits your interests," says 18-year-old Solomon from London.
"I love acting, music and performing and so does [my mentor] Drew.
"When we first met at my foster home we found a lot of common ground... we both felt comfortable straight away.
"I know I can confide in Drew with any issues that I might have and he'll do his best to understand and talk about his own experiences. Even though we only meet once a month, it's enough for us to keep up-to-date."
Solomon has applied for a place at the Academy of Contemporary Music in Guildford and has two part-time jobs over the summer.
"I like going out with Drew because it's different to being out with my teenage groups of friends and it's often in a new kind of social environment.
"To be a good independent visitor, you just need to be yourself and not try to be a social worker. Drew is very straight up and real and I respect that about him. He's very understanding and, even if he doesn't agree with something, he's always open-minded.
"I hope we've built up enough of a relationship to carry on meeting as I get older. There are a few people who I plan to repay in the future, no matter what's going on in my later life, and Drew is one of those people."
Barnardo's is urging councils to sign up to a new set of quality standards for independent mentors.
These include:
"Every single child needs an adult they can trust, who will be there for them and stay by their side no matter what life throws their way," said Barnardo's chief executive Javed Khan.
In particular, Mr Khan said he wanted the government to ensure mentors were in place for young people who were at risk of dropping out of education, training or employment.
"A key aim of the government's new strategy for care leavers is to support them into adult life.
"Providing enough mentors and signing up to the new, quality standards for independent visitors will help it achieve this."
The Department for Education said it trusted councils to manage their budgets and decide which services to provide to best meet the needs of the children in their care.
"The law is clear that local authorities must appoint an independent visitor where it's in a child's interest and they want one.
"Not all children in care will need or want an independent visitor but this should be kept under review by the child's social worker and Independent Reviewing Officer," said a DfE spokesman.
The Local Government Association agreed mentors could often provide valuable extra support to children in care.
But Roy Perry, chairman of the LGA's Children and Young People Board, said it was right that social workers considered each case individually.
"There is an urgent need for more volunteers to take on this hugely rewarding role," he added, urging anyone interested to contact their local council.


Plymouth Argyle secured an FA Cup third-round tie at Liverpool as Graham Carey's extra-time penalty ensured they won their replay at Newport County.

Media playback is not supported on this device
After a goalless 90 minutes, Plymouth were awarded a penalty in the first half of extra time only for Paul Garita to hit the post.
But Carey made no mistake with Argyle's second spot kick after Darren Jones' rash challenge on David Goodwillie.
Argyle will be away to Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool on Sunday, 8 January.
The second-round replay saw League Two's bottom side host the division's leaders after the original tie had ended 0-0 at Home Park.
Chances had been at a premium for both sides in normal time until the last quarter, when fog descended on Rodney Parade.
County's Josh O'Hanlon was denied by Luke McCormick while at the other end Joe Day made a good save to thwart Plymouth midfielder Carey.
Jordan Green fired wide for Newport early in extra time before the visitors were awarded a penalty with Jennison Myrie-Williams adjudged to have handled the ball.
Garita, on loan from Bristol City, hit the post and Newport cleared the danger.
But Argyle converted their second penalty of the game with top-scorer Carey sealing a lucrative trip to Anfield in the new year.

Former Sri Lanka bowler Chaminda Vaas will help Ireland's preparations for the upcoming ICC World Twenty20.

Vaas took 755 wickets for his country, playing in 111 Tests and 322 one-day matches.
Since retiring in 2012, the 41-year-old has worked as a bowling consultant for Sri Lanka and New Zealand.
Vaas' short-term contract will begin next month and will continue until the end of Ireland's World T20 campaign, which starts in March.
"It's great to have Chaminda with us through the build-up as well as during the World T20," Ireland coach John Bracewell said.
"His ability to get wickets in all forms of the game especially on the sub-continent was extraordinary. This experience will be invaluable to our bowling group."
Vaas said he was relishing the prospect of sharing the knowledge and experience he had picked up.
"I've played with and against some of the guys during my time in county cricket with Middlesex and Northants," Vaas added.
"There's a lot of talent and experience in the squad which I'm confident I can add to."
Vaas holds the record for the best bowling figures in one-day internationals with his 8-19 off eight overs against Zimbabwe in 2001.
The Irish will open their World T20 campaign in India against Oman on 8 March before going on to face Bangladesh (11 March) and the Netherlands (14 March) in the qualifying group, with only the winners going on to the Super 10 stage.
Prior to the World T20, the Irish will have a busy programme of games in Australia and Abu Dhabi which includes the four-day Intercontinental Cup game against Papua New Guinea, which begins in Townsville in Queensland on 31 January.


Fifa says it paid $10m (£6.5m) to a Caribbean football body led by Jack Warner, who is charged by the US with corruption, at South Africa's request.

South Africa's instruction was that the money was for a Diaspora Legacy Programme which should be "implemented directly" by Mr Warner, Fifa said.
The US says the $10m was a bribe in exchange for Mr Warner supporting South Africa's 2010 World Cup bid.
Mr Warner and South African officials have denied any wrong doing.
South Africa won the bid ahead of Morocco to become the first African country to host the World Cup.
Africa news updates
Mr Warner hails from Trinidad and Tobago and was the president of the Confederation of North, Central American and Caribbean Association Football (Concacaf) and vice-president of Fifa when the decision was made.
He was among a string of Fifa officials arrested last week after the US and Switzerland launched separate investigations into corruption in Fifa, the world football governing body.
In a statement, Fifa said South Africa's government approved a $10m project in 2007 to "support the African Diaspora in Caribbean countries as part of the World Cup legacy".
The government, in agreement with the South African Football Association (Safa), asked Fifa to "process the project's funding by withholding" $10m from the Local Organising Committee (LOC) of the World Cup, the statement added.
"Fifa did not incur any costs as a result of South Africa's request because the funds belonged to the LOC. Both the LOC and Safa adhered to the necessary formalities for the budgetary amendment," it said.
Martyn Ziegler, chief sports reporter for the Press Association, has tweeted a 2008 letter from Safa to Fifa secretary general Jerome Valcke, who has denied involvement in the scandal.
The letter, written by then Safa president Molefi Oliphant, requests that the money should be sent to the Diaspora Legacy Programme to be "administered and implemented directly by the president of Concacaf".
A Fifa spokesman told the BBC in response to the letter that the football governing body wanted to reiterate that Mr Valcke and other members of its senior management were not "involved in the initiation, approval and implementation of the diaspora project".
The Fifa statement did not comment on another US allegation - that a senior South African official travelled to Paris to hand over cash in $10,000 stacks - in a hotel room, to an unnamed person working for Mr Warner.
South Africa's government and Safa have denied any bribes were paid.


Hundreds of re-enactors from the UK and France recreated the Battle of Hastings to mark the anniversary of the clash that defined English history.

This year's re-enactment of the battle fought on 14 October 1066 took place on Saturday and Sunday with horses, encampments and drifting wood smoke.
The event took place a year ahead of the 950th anniversary.
English Heritage has already started drawing up plans for 2016.
Next year, part of William the Conqueror's abbey - the Great Gatehouse roof at Battle Abbey - will be opened to give visitors a view of the landscape where the battle was fought.
Inside the Great Gatehouse, a new exhibition will give an account of the day of the battle from dawn to dusk.
It will also explore the lead-up to the conflict, what is known about the location of the battle and the legacy of the clash.
New information points will be installed in the visitor centre and across the battlefield.
English Heritage chief executive Kate Mavor said the battle defined England's political, social and geographical landscape for centuries.
And last month, BBC News readers voted Hastings the third most decisive battle in British history, behind Bannockburn and the Battle of Britain.
Conservation work is starting on the Great Gatehouse, which will see repairs to the masonry and work to weather-proof the turrets and roof.
And curators are carrying out research on two forgotten staircases that may shed light on later uses of the building.
It is thought the staircases could have been used for secure treasuries, English Heritage said.


A school in northern Malaysia has had to shut temporarily to handle what local media have called a case of "mass hysteria".

It started last week with several students and teachers of the school in the city of Kota Bharu claiming that they had seen spirits or had supernatural experiences.
School authorities shut the school and called in Islamic traditional experts, scholars and even witch doctors in prayer sessions and "exorcisms".
By Sunday, the school had reopened and school officials said things had gone back to normal - but questions remain and the case continues to generate intense interest in Malaysia.
The school, SKM Pengkalan Chepa 2, is located in the highly traditional and religious state of Kelantan.
Last week, a small group of students began claiming they had seen a "black figure" lurking in the school. Soon, more students and even teachers claimed to have seen the same figure or experienced a supernatural presence.
One teacher told local news channel Astro Awani that she felt a "heavy" presence was hanging on to her, while another claimed that a "black figure" was attempting to enter her body.
A student meanwhile told newspaper Sinar Harian (in Malay) that he felt numbness in his hands while his mind "was all over the place".
About 100 people, mostly students, were affected, a senior school staff member confirmed to the BBC.
"Our students were possessed and disturbed [by these spirits]. We are not sure why it happened. We don't know what it is that affected us," she said.
"But the place is a bit old, and these children can be disobedient and sometimes throw their rubbish around the school grounds. Perhaps they hit some 'djinns' and offended the spirits," she added, using a local reference to ghosts.
The school shut on Thursday and invited Islamic preachers to recite the Koran and conduct prayers in the school. Local education authorities are also sending counsellors to the school this week.
The Kelantan state education department did not respond to queries from the BBC.
Based on the media reports, Robert Bartholomew, a sociologist who has researched mass hysteria in Malaysia, called it a textbook outbreak in an email to the BBC.
Mass hysteria or collective delusions are defined as the spontaneous and rapid spread of false or exaggerated beliefs within a population.
Outbreaks usually occur in small, tight-knit groups in enclosed surrounding such as schools, orphanages and factories.
Several famous cases of mass hysteria or collective delusion have been documented throughout history all over the world - including "dancing mania" centuries ago, in which people reportedly would start dancing uncontrollably for hours.
In 2012, LeRoy, New York made headlines with high school students developing strange tics and verbal outbursts with no obvious cause. Eventually the New York state department of health found that those involved - mostly girls  - were suffering from conversion disorder, a form of mass hysteria.
In South East Asia, during the 1970s there were several reported cases of mass hysteria outbreaks at factories in Singapore and Malaysia.
Mr Bartholomew, who once lived and did research in Malaysia, said the phenomenon is quite common in rural areas of the country.
In 1987 there was an outbreak involving 36 Muslim girls in a Malay hostel in Alor Star, Kedah which Mr Bartholomew said had lasted five years.
"The outbreak involved shouting, running and mental confusion, crying, bizarre movements, trances and spirit possession. The girls, ages 13-17, complained of too much religion and study, and too little recreation," Mr Bartholomew said.
"Malays are susceptible because of their belief in an array of spirits," said Mr Bartholomew, adding that outbreaks tend to occur in all-female boarding schools as they are the strictest.
Existing fears or beliefs often influence what is blamed for mass hysteria incidents - for example in LeRoy the HPV vaccine was first suspected followed by a decades-old chemical spill in the area. In Kota Bahru, school officials are pointing to the supernatural.
In some cases one person sets off a mass episode that is then exacerbated or prolonged by various factors.
In the case of LeRoy, New York some doctors said it had been sparked by one student actually diagnosed with Tourette syndrome.
Mr Bartholomew says his research points to deeper underlying causes in Malay girls who have been sent to boarding school.
"They are reluctant to attend such schools, where overcrowding is rife and privacy non-existent," he says. "Frustration and anger build over weeks or months. Eventually a single student becomes 'possessed' and is a seed or catalyst for the unfolding drama."
In the Alor Star case, school officials brought in witch doctors to help. "The use of so many bomohs and native healers can be a double-edged sword, especially if they fail, because they legitimise the supernatural aspects of the outbreak. As a result, the outbreak is likely to be prolonged."
Social media and media attention have been blamed for exacerbating the outbreak in some cases.
Dr Wan Zumusni Wan Mustapha, a university lecturer who lived and taught in Kelantan for 13 years, however, thought the incident had been blown out of proportion.
"It could have just been brought on by heat, stress or the haze," said Dr Zumusni, from the Universiti Teknologi Mara in Seremban.


The renowned Scottish soprano Lisa Milne is to become a teacher at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland (RCS).

The 44-year-old, from Aberdeen, will take up her role as a vocal coach at the Glasgow school for music, drama and dance in the next academic session.
Milne has performed in many of the world's finest opera houses, opera companies and festivals.
The RCS graduate said she was looking forward to working in a "world-leading musical environment".
"I am delighted to be joining the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland," she said.
"I'm looking forward to working in such a vibrant and world-leading musical environment.
"As an alumna of the RCS, I appreciate the training that goes on behind the scenes and I cannot wait to get started, working colleagues and students to ensure the continued visibility of the RCS's reach nationally and internationally."
Milne was awarded an MBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours in 2005 for services to opera and music.
The renowned recitalist has appeared at the Aix-en-Provence, Edinburgh and City of London festivals, the Oxford Lieder Festival, London's Wigmore Hall, the Palais des Beaux-Arts in Brussels, and at the Schumannfeste in Dusseldorf.
RCS Principal Professor Jeffrey Sharkey said she would bring unique qualities to the school.
"Lisa is one of the world's leading opera singers with an enormously distinguished international career," he said.
"She is an inspirational performer and teacher and her passion for her art will motivate the next generation of opera singers from the RCS.
"I am delighted she will be returning to her alma mater where students can learn from one of the finest singers in the world."


Bristol centre Tusi Pisi has been handed a two-week suspension for his aerial tackle on Worcester stand-off Jamie Shillcock in their Boxing Day meeting at Ashton Gate.

Pisi was sent off by referee Wayne Barnes in the 14th minute of Bristol's 28-20 win over their fellow strugglers.
The 34-year-old Samoan pleaded guilty to tackling Shillcock in the air.
Having already missed the 24-23 New Year's Day win at Sale, he now also misses Saturday's trip to Northampton,
The RFU Disciplinary panel said: "The player accepted the charge on the basis that this was a reckless challenge with no intent to cause injury. The panel agreed and determined this was a low-end entry point giving full mitigation on account of his plea and remorse."
Bristol acting head coach Mark Tainton told BBC Sport at the time: "Tusi has chased the ball. His eyes are on the ball all the time, he has not got off the ground. Technically, he is below the player's hips, and he has a responsibility to bring the player down."
Shillcock missed Worcester's next game, their New Year's Day win over Harlequins, but head coach Carl Hogg expects him to be fit to face Gloucester on Saturday.


Nintendo says the success of its new Switch console will help it to double annual profits.

It has become the fastest-selling games console in the Japanese firm's history, with 2.7 million units bought in March - the first month it was available.
But Nintendo's profit estimate of 65bn yen ($583.9m; £453m) for the year to March 2018 was below market forecasts.
Like other console makers, Nintendo is having to counter the rise of the smartphone as a tool for gaming.
And because - unlike Sony and Microsoft - Nintendo relies on games and consoles for almost all its sales, it is arguably more vulnerable to this trend.
Nintendo said it was aiming to sell 10 million units of the Switch by March 2018 - which would make it the firm's biggest hit since the Wii launched in November 2006.
"I was relieved by a strong start of the Switch," said Nintendo president Tatsumi Kimishima
"If the 10 million target is achieved... that means the sales momentum would be close to the Wii."
He batted away criticism that the profit forecast was too low, saying that the money spent marketing the Switch was eating into profits.
The Switch looks like a tablet computer with Joy-Con controllers that attach to its sides, and can be played both on televisions and as a standalone device.
It launched with a just handful of games, with some critics saying there were too few.
But the popularity of one game - The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - is believed to be a driver for many of the sales.
Soon after the launch, thousands of owners of Switch complained about dead or stuck pixels creating distracting and annoying dark squares on their screens.


Manchester City Women reached the Continental Cup final with a narrow home win over holders Arsenal Ladies.

Scotland defender Jennifer Beattie lashed in the game's only goal late on after Arsenal had the better chances.
Defeat saw four-time winners Arsenal fail to reach the final for the first time in the cup's six-year history.
City will play at their own Academy Stadium in the final against Birmingham City on Sunday, 2 October, after their 4-0 win at London Bees on Saturday.
After City keeper Marie Hourihan had denied Asisat Oshoala on multiple occasions, the ball deflected straight to Beattie in the Arsenal six-yard box from a Toni Duggan free-kick with 11 minutes remaining and she fired in to win the game.
The winner came moments after Danielle Carter's powerful effort for the Gunners had struck the crossbar, and England captain Steph Houghton cleared the ball off the line late on to deny Arsenal again.
The first half had seen City go close to opening the scoring, with a Jane Ross shot deflected wide, before Arsenal forward Danielle van de Donk had to be withdrawn because of a concerning head injury, caused by a clash of heads.
City - who currently lead the Women's Super League One table and are aiming for a double - previously lifted the Continental Cup in 2014 when they beat Arsenal in the final.
Manchester City and England captain Steph Houghton: "When a chance falls to Jen Beattie, I've got every faith she'll stick it in the back of the net.
"This is special for us because the Continental Cup final was the first trophy we won, it's the only trophy we've ever won and that makes it extra special.
"It was good for me to get back on the line and do my bit at the end, it proved vital because Kelly Smith is always going to create a chance but it was just a relief I got back there to block it.
"We had to be professional and that emotion and adrenaline got us through to the final and we're thankful for that."
Arsenal and England right-back Alex Scott: "On reflection we had most of the chances and we should have been putting them away.
"We should have come away with the win but they came away with a set-piece but apart from that we weren't really threatened.
"I was proud of the girls today, that's as solid as we've been all season but a ricochet on a set-piece falls right to Jen and that's that, it's in the back of the net."
Manchester City Women: Hourihan, Stokes, Beattie, Houghton (C), Bronze, Walsh, Scott, Christiansen, Duggan, Ross, Parris.
Substitutes: Bardsley, Stanway, Asllani, Corboz, Middag.
Arsenal Ladies: Byrne, Scott, Stoney, Henning, Mitchell, Nobbs, Janssen, Van de Donk, Oshoala, Carter, Smith.
Substitutes: Van Veenendaal, Rose, Corredera, McCabe, Devlin, Losada, Natlia.


Proposals to reverse the decline in the number of pubs have been set out by the Welsh Conservative leader.

An average of 11 pubs in Wales are closing each week, according to the Campaign for Real Ale (Camra).
Andrew RT Davies said his party would cut business rates and give local communities the right to bid to takeover closure-threatened pubs if it wins power in May's assembly election.
He said the moves would save jobs in an industry that was a major employer.
Mr Davies visited a brewery in Barry, Vale of Glamorgan, to promote the plans on Thursday.
In December 2015, the Labour Welsh Government Communities Minister Lesley Griffiths said there was cross-party support for a scheme allowing local groups to bid for land or buildings "judged to enhance a community's social wellbeing or social interests".
A so-called right to bid system already exists in England.
Mr Davies said: "In failing to embrace the right to bid, Labour is not only ignoring the plight of Welsh pubs but hastening their decline by failing to reform business taxes, which Welsh Conservatives want to cut.
"A Welsh Conservative government would cut business rates and empower Welsh communities to protect jobs and enable local people to have a say on how their local assets are managed."
A Welsh Labour spokesman said it would cut tax for small businesses and work with local communities to "protect pubs and introduce measures to help prevent unnecessary closures and to assist communities to take ownership of community assets themselves where possible and appropriate".
Liberal Democrat Peter Black said: "For the sake of strong and diverse communities, Wales needs its own right to bid - and Welsh Liberal Democrats will fight to ensure it is put in place."
A Plaid Cymru spokeswoman said the party would cut business rates for 80% of businesses "scrapping rates altogether for 70,000 businesses and extending rate relief for an additional 20,000" and it backed the introduction of minimum alcohol pricing that would "secure a more level playing field for our local pubs".
A UKIP spokeswoman said the party had "done more than any other party in the fight for independent brewing and pub tenancy" and would "continue our campaign for the great British pub inside the Welsh Assembly with vigour".


Unbeaten Division One leaders Essex thumped Yorkshire inside two days to strengthen their bid for a first County Championship title in 25 years.

Captain Ryan ten Doeschate's 88 took Essex from 188-8 to 231 all out before lunch - a first-innings lead of 118.
A second superb spell of pace bowling in the match from Mohammad Amir (5-54) then saw Yorkshire bowled out for 150, and Essex eased to 34-2 for victory.
Essex now lead second-placed Lancashire by 49 points with five games left.
The Red Rose county are currently playing third-placed Hampshire at the Ageas Bowl and host Essex in what could be a pivotal match at the start of September.
Pakistan paceman Amir was unplayable at times on a seamer-friendly pitch at Scarborough, finishing with career-best match figures of 10-72.
Four Yorkshire batsmen were out for nought, including opener Alex Lees who edged Amir behind to register a pair, while Jack Leaning fought with a gritty 70 before he was last man out to Jamie Porter (4-41).
Essex lost openers Varun Chopra and Nick Browne in their small chase, but it mattered little as they picked up their sixth win in nine games.
Yorkshire, champions in 2014 and 2015, have now lost four out of 10 matches this summer, with several of their batsmen averaging less than 30.
Essex, who were promoted from Division Two last season, won the last of their six County Championship crowns in 1992 under Graham Gooch.


Two women who led the fight against one of the most shocking failings in NHS history have been recognised in the New Year honours list.

The care at Stafford Hospital left some patients drinking water from vases, it is claimed, and receptionists assessing emergency cases.
Julie Bailey, who set up the campaign group Cure the NHS after witnessing her mother's treatment, was made a CBE.
Helene Donnelly, a nurse who became a whistleblower, was made an OBE.
Figures suggested there were more deaths than would have been expected at Stafford Hospital between 2005 and 2008.
Patients needing pain relief either got it late or not at all, leaving them crying out for help, and there were cases where food and drinks were left out of reach.
Helene Donnelly worked in the A&E department at the hospital.
She raised nearly 100 complaints about the treatment of patients, turned whistleblower and was a key witness at the Stafford Hospital public inquiry.
She told the BBC she was "tremendously proud and honoured" to receive the OBE for services to the NHS, after what had been a "very difficult time personally and professionally".
Ms Donnelly said she was surprised when she found out: "It was rather surreal really, I was completely shocked, I thought is this some sort of mistake?"
She is now an ambassador for cultural change at the Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent Partnership NHS Trust and takes staff concerns directly to the chief executive.
"I hope this [honour] is recognition for lots of other people trying to raise concerns and this is also for the positive change we're trying to encourage now."
Julie Bailey, who led the campaign for a public inquiry into failings at the hospital, was given a CBE for "services to the care of older people".
Her 86-year-old mother Bella collapsed in the hospital in 2007 after being left without her oxygen supply.
Ms Bailey spent the next eight weeks sleeping on the ward after resolving that her mother should not be left alone in the hospital.
She said she witnessed "utter chaos" on the ward with patients drinking out of flower vases.
Her mother later died at the hospital and Ms Bailey set up the Cure the NHS campaign group with other relatives of patients who had died at the hospital.
Previous inquiries into care had been held in private. The group successfully campaigned for a full public inquiry which concluded in 2013.
Since then new rules, to make hospitals in England publish monthly details of whether they have enough nurses on their wards and making a criminal offence of wilful neglect to hold staff to account, have been announced.


Two men have been arrested in connection with reports that a teenager armed with a machete attacked a bus in the east end of Glasgow.

Passenger Kris Goodman, 30, was travelling on the bus with his five-year-old daughter when the incident happened at about 20:30 on Monday.
He said two teenagers, one armed with a machete more than a foot long, targeted the bus in Alexandra Parade.
Other vehicles were also said to have been targeted.
Several police vehicles and a helicopter were seen in neighbouring Roystonhill following the incident.
A Police Scotland spokesman said two men were arrested on Monday night.


The way schools in Bridgend are run by the local authority no longer needs extra monitoring by the official watchdog.

Estyn stepped in at Bridgend council following an inspection of its education services in October 2012.
Inspectors say the authority has now made sufficient progress, after two additional Estyn visits last year.
Issues addressed include pupil performance and using intervention powers at underperforming schools.
Estyn said there had been "significant changes in the senior management team within the children's directorate".
The inspectors also noted that the pace at which the issues had been addressed had increased under the new leadership.


A lock of hair belonging to the Austro-Hungarian Emperor Franz Joseph has been auctioned in Vienna for 13,720 euros (£11,500) - more than 20 times its estimated value.

The lock, which belonged to the estate of the Emperor's valet, Eugen Ketterl, had been valued at about 450 euros.
Franz Joseph ruled from 1848 to 1916 and was one of Europe's longest reigning monarchs.
In 2011, a lock of Justin Bieber's hair sold for £25,024 on Ebay.
The teeny-bopper had given the piece of hair in a signed box to US chat-show host Ellen Degeneres, and the money raised was given to an animal charity.
But while Franz Joseph's follicles may have been less in demand than the Canadian crooner's quiff, the Austrian emperor's lock fared better than one of Napoleon Bonaparte's: In 2010, a lock of the French emperor's hair sold for £8,600 at auction in New Zealand.
The lock of imperial white curled hair was kept in a blue velvet-lined box and had been given to Mr Ketterl along with other of the monarch's discarded personal effects, as a way of topping up his salary.
Also under the hammer at Thursday's sale in Vienna's Dorotheum Auction House were Franz Joseph's cigar case and a handkerchief, as well as a sketchbook belonging to his son, Crown Prince Rudolf, who was found dead with his lover in 1889.


The funeral of Gerard Quinn, a father of one, who died from a stab wound to the throat with a broken glass, has taken place in Londonderry.

The 24-year-old was wounded in an incident at  Milldale Crescent, Currynierin, on Saturday 21 May. He was taken to hospital, but later died.
At Requiem Mass, Father Michael Canny said the circumstances of his death were "heartbreaking".
"His life was cruelly cut short," he told mourners.
"That we are here in these circumstances is heart breaking and challenging."
There were emotional scenes among the hundreds of people  who packed into the church at Ardmore for the funeral Mass.
The cortÃ¨ge was flanked by members of Ardmore Gaelic Athletic Association and Nierin football club as it made its way from Mr Quinn's home in Currynierin.
Floral tributes spelling "brother" and "father" adorned the coffin and a floral tribute of Nierin FC rested on top of the hearse in the team's blue colours.
Addressing mourners at the funeral Mass in St Mary's Church, Ardmore, Fr Canny said the Quinn family had been "devastated and numbed" by his death.
"Your lives have been changed and will never be the same again," he told them.
"For the remainder of your natural lives, you will have to live with the reality of this life-changing event. It will not be easy; indeed you will have many difficult days," he said.
But he also called for forgiveness and appealed to the wider community not to act in any way that might bring further suffering.
Mr Quinn's twin brother was wounded in the incident, but he was later released from hospital.
A 16-year-old youth, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has been charged with Mr Quinn's murder.


Celebrity chef James Martin has revealed he left BBC One's Saturday Kitchen because a stranger "stood up on stage and passed away in front of me".

"That was over a year ago and that was the decision to change," he told ITV's Good Morning Britain.
"I look back at all the work I'd done - four days off that year and five the year before and I thought something's got to change."
Martin left Saturday Kitchen in March last year.
It is believed the man who died was a singer who was performing at the BBC Good Food Middle East Awards in 2015 in the UAE.
Martin told Susanna Reid and Piers Morgan that after the shock of the man's death and his subsequent decision to change his work priorities, "for the first time in my life I'm content and happy".
When asked about rumours he would join the new Great British Bake Off when it moves to Channel 4, Martin said: "I tried to put a bet on myself twice but they're not taking odds so I don't think that's going to happen."
A number of guest hosts have presented Saturday Kitchen since Martin departed, including chefs John Torrode, Angela Hartnett and Lorraine Pascale.
When Martin fronted the show, he asked celebrity guests for their "food heaven" and "food hell" - to have one of the dishes, voted for by viewers, cooked at the end of the programme.
It also saw chefs compete against each other in the omelette challenge - creating a three-egg omelette in the fastest time.
Martin took over from Antony Worrall Thompson as host when he joined the show in 2006.

Portraits of civil rights leaders John Hume and Ivan Cooper have been unveiled on a Londonderry mural on Friday.

The new portraits have been added to one of the city's existing Bogside murals, which have been fully restored.
Speaking at the event, the former SDLP leader John Hume said he was delighted to be honoured.
"The terrible injustices of the 1960s and the decades before underlined the inescapable need for political change."
"The civil rights movement in Derry in 1968 had people from all walks of life and all traditions and was totally non-sectarian and non-violent.
"I am delighted to be here today to see the refreshed mural which the Bogside artists have completed which honours all those who were active during these marches."
John Hume won the Nobel peace prize in 1998 for his contribution to the peace process.
Ivan Cooper was a founder member of the SDLP. Both men came to prominence through the civil rights movement in the late 1960s.
The mural is located at Rossville Street, beside Pilot's Row.
Deirdre Crawford from the housing executive said it had contributed Â£5,000 to the project in partnership with Derry and Strabane district council.
"We feel it's a very valuable contribution and a very valuable investment.
"It's about civil rights, iconic people who developed the project and it's the tenacity and courage of this community to stand here today and say this is anti-sectarian.
"We've done projects right across Northern Ireland and this is in line with that. It's cross community."
Vinnie Coyle, whose father was a leading civil rights campaigner, is also included in the mural. Mr Coyle said it was important to remember the contribution of Mr Hume and Mr Cooper to Derry.
"They were hugely important because of the leadership that they gave.
"They were two young men vibrant in the civil rights movement. Ivan was from the Protestant community and John from the Catholic community, both standing against sectarian violence.
"They gave leadership to people in a non-violent voice to come out and protest for their rights."


People with rheumatoid arthritis in Northern Ireland need more funding and support to be in line with the rest of the UK, a charity has said.

Arthritis Care NI said that, at one stage, NI people had to wait three years for certain drugs, compared to three weeks in England.
This has improved, but there is still a way to go, the group said.
The charity has published research that suggests many sufferers do not talk about their daily struggles.
Steve McBride, Arthritis Care's policy adviser for Scotland and Northern Ireland, said: "We need to make sure the funding is provided to enable people to get the benefits of these very powerful and effective modern drugs.
"We also need to get people to understand the full complexity of the condition and to support things like the self management training we do, which helps people deal with the day-to-day management of arthritis."


The masked Islamic State militant known as "Jihadi John", who has been pictured in the videos of the beheadings of Western hostages, has been named.

He is Mohammed Emwazi, a Kuwaiti-born British man in his mid-20s from west London, who was previously known to British security services.
British police declined to comment, citing ongoing investigations.
Emwazi first appeared in a video last August, when he apparently killed the US journalist James Foley.
He was later thought to have been pictured in the videos of the beheadings of US journalist Steven Sotloff, British aid worker David Haines, British taxi driver Alan Henning, and American aid worker Abdul-Rahman Kassig, also known as Peter.
In each of the videos, the militant appeared dressed in a black robe with a black balaclava covering all but his eyes and top of his nose.
Speaking with a British accent, he taunted Western powers before holding his knife to the hostages' necks, appearing to start cutting before the film stopped. The victims' decapitated bodies were then shown.
Earlier this month, the militant featured in a video in which the Japanese journalist Kenji Goto appeared to be beheaded. Hostages released by IS said he was one of three British jihadists guarding Westerners abducted by the group in Syria. They were known collectively as "the Beatles".

'Jihadi John' movement mapped
Emwazi "claimed harassment"
In a news conference, Asim Qureshi, the research director of the London-based lobby group Cage, which had been in contact with Emwazi over a number of years, explained how he had been approached by the Washington Post for the story and detailed the difficulties Emwazi had had with security services in the UK and overseas.
Mr Qureshi said Emwazi, who is understood to be about 27, had been "extremely kind, gentle and soft-spoken, the most humble young person I knew".
He said he could "not be 100% certain" Jihadi John was Emwazi although there were "striking similarities".
Emwazi's difficulties began when he travelled to Tanzania in May 2009 following his graduation in computer programming at the University of Westminster, Mr Qureshi added.
He and two friends had planned to go on a safari but once they landed in Dar es Salaam they were detained by police and held overnight.
Emwazi then ended up flying to Amsterdam, in the Netherlands, where he claimed to be met by British intelligence agents from MI5 who accused him of trying to travel to Somalia, where the jihadist group al-Shabab operates. He denied the accusation and said the agents had tried to recruit him before allowing him to return to the UK.
Analysis: Frank Gardner, BBC News
US and British counter-terrorism officials discovered the identity of "Jihadi John" as far back as last September. The FBI, Britain's MI5 and other intelligence agencies used a combination of voice recognition software, interviews with former hostages and on-the-ground research in London to build up a profile of the man now revealed to be Mohammed Emwazi.
They have always declined to reveal the name for "operational reasons". Now that it's out in the public domain, it's emerged that Emwazi was well-known to MI5 and that it even tried to recruit him as an informer, years before he went off to Syria to eventually join Islamic State.
The practice by intelligence agencies of approaching jihadist sympathisers to work for them is likely to continue. It's believed both Britain and the US have informers inside the Islamic State "capital" of Raqqa. Yet this seems to have been little help in stopping the actions of Mohammed Emwazi, or bringing him to justice.
Profile: Mohammed Emwazi
Jihadist's 'typical trajectory'
Emwazi later moved to Kuwait, where he got a job at a computer company. But on a visit to London in 2010, he was detained by British counter-terrorism officials and prevented from flying back to Kuwait, his friends said.
"I had a job waiting for me and marriage to get started," Emwazi wrote in a June 2010 email to Cage.
"[But now] I feel like a prisoner, only not in a cage, in London," he added, "a person imprisoned and controlled by security service men, stopping me from living my new life in my birthplace and country, Kuwait."
Mr Qureshi said Emwazi had made persistent efforts to try to change his situation: "We had two-and-a-half years of communications talking about what he could do to alleviate his problems."
He said he did not know what had happened to Emwazi, adding: "When we treat people as if they are outsiders they will inevitably feel like outsiders - our entire national security strategy for the last 13 years has only increased alienation. A narrative of injustice has taken root."
Emwazi was believed to have travelled to Syria around 2013 and later joined IS, which has declared the creation of a "caliphate" in the large swathes of Syria and neighbouring Iraq it controls.
A spokeswoman for Prime Minister David Cameron would not confirm or deny the latest reports, adding that the police and security services were working hard to find those responsible for the murder of the British hostages.
The University of Westminster confirmed Emwazi had left six years ago, adding: "If these allegations are true, we are shocked and sickened."
The BBC's Rajini Vaidyanathan in Washington says the FBI went on record last September to confirm it knew who Jihadi John was. However, US officials said this month they would not name him as they believed this would be the best strategy for finding him and bringing him to justice.
A spokesman for the family of Steven Sotloff said: "We want to sit in a courtroom, watch him sentenced and see him sent to a super-max prison."
David Haines's sister, Bethany, welcomed the identification, but told ITV News: "I think all the families will feel closure and relief once there's a bullet between his eyes."

Iceland captain Aron Gunnarsson says his team want more success in Euro 2016 after beating England 2-1.

Media playback is not supported on this device
The Cardiff City midfielder will lead Iceland against hosts France in Sunday's fourth quarter final in Paris.
"I don't think anyone is full," said the 27-year-old who led the celebrations with fans after Iceland's shock win over Roy Hodgson's team.
"I think we're still hungry for more and obviously we have another difficult game against France on Sunday."
Gunnarsson, who played 29 times during Cardiff's 2015-16 Championship campaign, believes his team have a real chance of more success against France.
"We said before the game that beating England would change lives and for Icelandic football in general and I think it has," he told BBC Radio Wales.
"We're getting more and more attention and the further we go it will get even better, and as long as we keep our feet on the ground and keep on progressing as a team you never know.
"If you come to a game with the right attitude and are tactically spot-on you've always got a chance - even if you are the underdogs."
Iceland were the lowest-ranked team going into Euro 2016 and the country with a population of only 323,000 - smaller than the city where Gunnarsson plays his club football.
So far they have drawn with semi-finalists Portugal and Hungary and beaten Austria and England.
France will be overwhelming favourites for Sunday's match, but Lars Lagerback's team have also beaten Netherlands away in a Euro 2016 qualifier during the past 12 months.
And Gunnarsson is happy to see the team and the fans getting recognition for their achievements.
"It has been special for football back in Iceland," he added.
"It has put us on the map even though we're have the underdogs in this tournament it's done wonders for how we are going about things and for the fans.
"We have to give credit to the fans because they've turned up in numbers and they're getting a lot of positive attention as well which is a good thing."


The timescale for improvements to the A9 has been criticised by two MSPs.

Conservative Mary Scanlon and Labour's Rhoda Grant have separately criticised the length of time it will take to upgrade sections of the trunk road.
Eighty miles of single carriageway between Perth and Inverness are to be made into dual carriageway by 2025.
Improvements are also planned for the A9 at Berriedale Braes, a hairpin bend further north in Caithness.
Ms Scanlon has criticised the timescale for the dualling of the trunk road between Inverness and Perth.
She said it was disappointing that the current construction of almost five miles (8km) of dual carriageway between Kincraig and Dalraddy was the first upgrade project since an upgrade at Crubenmore about five years ago.
She has asked the government for detailed timetables of when the remaining stretches of single carriageway would be upgraded.
Ms Grant wrote to Transport Minister Derek Mackay about the timing for improvements to the Berriedale Braes, a hairpin bend where the trunk road drops from 150m (492ft) to 20m (65ft).
The MSP said Mr Mackay's response included that funding for the works would not form part of the government's draft budget for 2016-17.
With a public inquiry also still to be held into the planned improvement, Ms Grant said the project was at least two-and-a-half years away from completion.
A spokesman for Transport Scotland said: "Since publication of draft Orders last year we have been working hard to progress the Berriedale Braes improvement scheme.
"However, as one statutory objector remains it has been necessary to arrange a Public Local Inquiry (PLI), which is currently scheduled for April this year.
"The Scottish government remains committed to delivering the A9 Berriedale Braes project."
The Scottish government said more than half of the dual carriageway between Inverness and Perth would be built by 2022.
A spokesperson said: "The Scottish government is the first government to commit to dualling the A9 between Perth and Inverness which is a huge undertaking and one of largest and challenging infrastructure projects in Scotland's history."

The Fifa Council has ratified the decision to give Africa nine automatic places when the World Cup expands to 48 teams in 2026.

The move was confirmed on Tuesday in Bahrain - the continent currently has five spots at the tournament.
A tenth African country will take part in a six-nation play-off tournament to decide the last two spots.
The Bureau of the Fifa Council made the original proposal of how it planned to allocate the 48 places on 30 March.
The expanded World Cup will feature 16 teams from Europe.
Fifa members voted in January to expand the World Cup from 32 to 48 teams, starting with the 2026 edition.
Allocation:
NB: Currently teams from Asia, north and central America, South America and Oceania play-off for two places hence .5 spots above.


A Royal Marine medic from Preston has received the Military Cross for his actions during an attack by a rogue member of the Afghan National Army.

Marine Harry Robinson was recognised for his response to the incident in the Nahr-e Saraj district of Helmand province which left one British soldier dead and six injured.
The 24-year-old helped the injured despite being shot at by the gunman.
He received the award from the Princess Royal at Buckingham Palace.
Marine Robinson said: "We were under fire for most of it. I have no idea how I didn't get shot because I wasn't being tactical in any way.
"I was on my knee just treating and then standing up and running to the next bloke."
Marine Robinson, of Taunton-based 40 Commando, said it was "almost pitch black" at the time and he was mostly "feeling for injuries" in the dark because using his torch attracted more gunfire.
After all the casualties had been assessed he remained with a survivor who had been shot six times.
The medic added: "The simple fact is you're the medic and you've got to treat him and you want to do the best job you can for that lad, everything else goes out of the window."
Sapper Richard Walker, a member of 28 Engineer Regiment attached to 21 Engineer Regiment, was killed in the incident on January 7 last year.
The 23-year-old was working on a construction task as part of preparations to hand the camp over to Afghan security forces.
The Taliban later claimed responsibility for the attack.
The Military Cross is awarded to all ranks of the Royal Navy, Royal Marines, Army and Royal Air Force in recognition of exemplary gallantry during active operations against the enemy on land.

Wales fans hoping to follow their team on the official Euro 2016 app were left disappointed - after the country was not included.

People logging on are asked which team they want to follow to get the latest news during the tournament.
All countries taking part in the competition were listed apart from Wales, Turkey, Switzerland and Ukraine.
Football body UEFA, which runs the app, blamed a "technical issue" on some devices which it has now resolved.
Wales fan Tim Hartley said he was "very disappointed" that his team was not on the app after it launched.
"It's surprising that I've received tickets to follow my team right through to the final, and yet UEFA has left Wales out of app," he said.
"But having said that, the fans will stand together in France next month regardless, app or not."
After BBC Wales contacted UEFA it said it resolved the glitch and the missing countries were now available to fans.
A spokesman said no teams were left out but a technical issue had meant the last row of participating teams could not be seen.


One of Asia's biggest pop groups, SMAP, is to break up at the end of the year after a 25-year career.

The Japanese boy band, which sold 35m records up to last year, will disband on 31 December, its management agency said on Sunday.
Rumours of a split had been rife since the turn of the year, but had all previously been denied.
Its five members, who are aged between 39 and 43, are now expected to pursue solo careers.
The band, formed in 1988, has built up a huge fanbase in Japan and throughout Asia with members appearing frequently in films, soap operas, and commercials.
Members of SMAP, which stands for "Sports Music Assemble People", have also appeared on cookery shows and Japanese coverage of the Rio Olympics.
Their popularity has even made them ambassadors for diplomatic relations between Japan, China and South Korea.
In 2011, they were the first Japanese pop group to visit China in a decade, amid a row between the countries over disputed territory. Their Beijing concert was attended by 40,000 people.
A statement by the group's managers Johnny and Associates said they were "truly and deeply pained and sorry" to not be able to take part in 25th anniversary celebrations.


Wales should have bid to host the 2026 Commonwealth Games to show it was "open to the world", Welsh Secretary Alun Cairns has said.

He said it would have led to extra spending on infrastructure like roads.
The Welsh Government ditched the idea last month blaming the high cost and funding uncertainty after the Brexit vote.
Mr Cairns told Wales at Work radio programme that the country had to be outward looking following the vote.
The Welsh government accused Mr Cairns of "kidding people".
Mr Cairns also said there needs to be a focus on the M4 relief road as firms were telling him the current situation was causing "reputational damage".
A planning inquiry will be held in November into a Â£1.1bn six-lane motorway south of Newport to relieve congestion around the Brynglas tunnels.
"If there was ever a time when Wales could demonstrate how it was looking outwards, it would have been bidding for the Commonwealth Games," he said.
Liverpool is planning a bid to host the 2026 Commonwealth Games.
The UK's nomination for a host city will be decided in 2018.
A spokesperson for Economy Secretary Ken Skates, who pulled the plug on a bid, said: "Alun Cairns is kidding people with these remarks.
"He talks about unlocking infrastructure investment and yet we've seen no progress on rail electrification - that is the responsibility of his government in Westminster.
"The Secretary of State needs to check his job description - he should be banging the drum for Wales at the cabinet table, rather than taking lazy pot-shots at the Welsh Government when we make difficult but responsible decisions."


British race walker Tom Bosworth has criticised the Football Association for wanting "to create a gay day".

FA chairman Greg Clarke told a Commons Select Committee last year that openly gay players may suffer "significant abuse" and has suggested they come out collectively rather than on their own.
But Bosworth, a high-profile openly gay athlete, revealed he met Clarke and told him his approach must "change".
"He really wants to get on top of it," said the 27-year-old.
Bosworth, who came out in 2015, told BBC Radio 5 live's Friday Sports Panel: "I felt like it was very much that they almost wanted to create a 'gay day' and have a few footballers come out together."
However, he said that "every case is individual", adding: "They might not be in a relationship. There might be no need for them to come out.
"They might be playing in the Premier League but, in the country they come from, it might still be illegal to be gay - so there's no chance of them coming out."
Justin Fashanu, in 1990, was the first professional footballer in England to come out as gay. He took his own life in 1998, aged 37. No male professional player has since come out while playing in England.
Bosworth, who finished sixth at the Rio 2016 Olympics, added that Clarke was "the most important person to have on side" in football's fight against homophobia.
"He is very keen to make a change," Bosworth added.
Speaking at equality charity Stonewall's Rainbow Laces summit in May, Clarke said gay footballers had been "reticent to engage" with him since he started his role at the FA last August.
He added that in nine months of meeting athletes from a range of sports, no footballers had accepted his offer of a private meeting.
In a statement to BBC Sport on Friday, the FA reaffirmed its commitment to tackling homophobia, biphobia and transphobia.
"We continue to encourage fans and players to report abuse - both at a national and county FA level - and work with the leagues, LGBT clubs, campaign groups and the statutory agencies to sanction and educate perpetrators.
"Where players, managers and other participants commit abuse, we will deal with it; mandatory education sessions are regularly delivered which raise awareness of the negative impact this abuse has."


Three athletics officials have had their life bans over an alleged doping cover-up upheld by the Court of Arbitration for Sport.

Papa Massata Diack, son of ex-IAAF president Lamine Diack, and Russians Valentin Balakhnichev and Alexei Melnikov had their appeals dismissed.
They were charged in December 2015 with multiple breaches of anti-doping rules relating to Russia's Liliya Shobukhova.
Cas is yet to publish its grounds for upholding the sanctions.
On Monday Cas said: "The panel concluded that on the evidence adduced, the charges were established beyond reasonable doubt and that the sanctions imposed should be upheld.
"The full award with grounds will be published as soon as possible."
The International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) said it "welcomed" the Cas ruling and IAAF president Lord Coe added: "The ruling sends a clear message that anyone who attempts to corrupt our sport will be brought to justice."
In a 170-page report, the independent IAAF ethics commission panel said Diack, Balakhnichev and Melnikov conspired to "blackmail" Shobukhova to cover up her doping violations by her paying them "bribes" of about £435,000.
Diack and Balakhnichev, a former president of the Russian athletics federation and IAAF treasurer, were fined £17,000 while Russian coach Melnikov was fined £10,000.
In December Diack, a former IAAF marketing consultant, told the BBC he "totally rejects" the blackmail allegations, saying: "There was no extortion of funds from any athlete."


It may have only been the first day of the Cannes Film Festival, but it was packed with glamour as stars descended on the sunshine-soaked resort.

Celebrities eager to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the festival walked the red carpet for the opening ceremony.
They included Bella Hadid, Kirsten Dunst, Uma Thurman and Julianne Moore.
Drama Ismael's Ghosts, starring Marion Cotillard, was the first film to have its premiere at the Palais, the heart of the action during the 11-day event.
Jessica Chastain, on the jury deciding the key award winners, hugged Thelma and Louise actress Susan Sarandon on the red carpet, while British Oscar nominee Naomie Harris was there for the first main event of a packed festival.
If you're not one of the thousands of industry professionals, budding actors or media in town for the festival, here's what you might have missed from its opening scenes.
Among the stars who turned heads and set the paparazzi bulbs flashing included Julianne Moore and Susan Sarandon, Bella Hadid (and her plunging neckline) and Elle Fanning.
It's fair to say Will Smith is pretty chuffed at being on the Cannes jury alongside the likes of Paolo Sorrentino - even though he said seeing three films a day was something he'd not done since he was a teenager.
He almost bounced into the jury press conference, giving a whoop before seeing his name badge set on the desk and announcing he would be "playing the part of Will Smith today", then jokingly called security on a photographer getting a little too close.
The Fresh Prince of Bel Air star joked he would wear 32 outfits during the festival, after he was told previous juror Kirsten Dunst had worn 28 during her stint. But he conceded that it was too hot in the resort to be sexy and that being comfortable was key.
"I started off wanting to be sexy - really south of France Cannes sexy, but that really went out of the window today," he said.
There was no word on his thoughts on jury president Pedro Almodovar's maroon tracksuit and shades that he wore for the press conference.
Being chosen as the opening film of Cannes may be a coup for the crew and cast - but that doesn't save it from being critically mauled.
Ismael's Ghosts, directed by Arnaud Desplechin, is about a woman returning to her film director husband after being missing for 20 years, but finding him with a new lover. It was described as "time-wasting" and "self indulgent" by The Guardian.
While The Hollywood Reporter is a little kinder, it says the film "won't be an easy sell".
But it clearly left a nasty taste in Variety's critic Peter Debruge's mouth, as he wrote: "If Ismael's Ghosts were a meal, it would be a massive slab of off-tasting meat alternative, wrapped in fake bacon, cooked in margarine, then covered in dairy-free imitation cheese."
The reviews for Loveless, which was also screened on Wednesday, were much better. Matt Anderson of BBC Culture described it as "brilliant - but heavy and relentlessly grim".
He said: "After his last film, Leviathan, the director Andrei Zvyagintsev came in for a lot of criticism in Russia for the dark picture of the country he put forward. Loveless is in many ways even harsher and more direct in its condemnation of daily life under Putin.
"It played very well at the press screening - but it will be interesting to compare the reactions from Russia and abroad."
Those lucky enough to have accreditation for the festival could have been forgiven by being confused when they picked up their pass.
For this year, as a tongue-in-cheek addition, badges with a variety of well-worn Cannes phrases came attached to the lanyard.
Guests were seen discussing who had the best slogan, with phrases - in French and English, and chosen by the Cannes team - including "I'm so pathetic I took a selfie on the red carpet", "Who won the Palme d'Or last year?" and "How come I didn't get invited?".
That last one has already been heard at least once on the Croisette, Cannes' strip of hotels and beaches hosting lavish parties, even though the festival has barely begun.
Speaking of uninvited guests, one of the stars of the upcoming Emoji Movie - the one featuring Sir Patrick Stewart as a bow tie-wearing piece of poo - crashed into Cannes as the festival was getting going.
T J Miller parasailed onto a pier outside the Carlton Hotel in the heart of the town, only to promptly fall in the water. Soaking wet, he declared he thought it was "funny" - so no sad face needed here.
The publicity stunt came despite - or perhaps because of - the fact the film is not being shown at Cannes.
The Cannes Film Festival runs until 28 May

Eight suspected militants linked to so-called Islamic State (IS) have been freed from jail in the Philippines in an apparently "staged raid".

Police said at least 20 fighters from the Maute group had turned up at the Lanao del Sur jail in the southern city of Marawi, but no shots had been fired.
A military source told the BBC they believed the men had been allowed to escape.
The militants were held last week after being caught with homemade mortars.
At least 15 other inmates - who faced murder and drugs charges - also walked free, but it is not clear whether this was agreed.
The Maute group has carried out several bombings and kidnappings in the southern Mindanao region.
The Philippines has faced Muslim separatist movements for decades in Mindanao, which has a significant Muslim population  - the Philippines is mainly Catholic.
The Maute group carries the black flag and insignia of IS, and has attacked army troops, beheaded a soldier and beheaded two local workers earlier this year.
The militants kidnapped the two workers and made them wear orange shirts similar to those worn by IS beheading victims before they were killed.
Several armed groups in the Philippines have pledged allegiance to IS, although the country's military says there is no evidence of active co-operation with foreign militants.


Leinster prop Cian Healy will have his citing complaint for an incident in a Champions Cup defeat by Toulon on 13 December reheard in London on Thursday.

Healy is alleged to have struck Toulon's Guilhem Guirado with his knee.
The initial striking charge was found to be not proven but the incident was deemed to be foul play and he was banned for two weeks.
Healy won his appeal against the ban but an independent committee decided the citing complaint should be reheard.
Leinster had argued that Healy was cited for one offence yet suspended for another.
The 28-year-old was cleared by organisers European Professional Club Rugby to play in the return fixture, won 20-16 by Toulon in Dublin on 19 December.
Welsh judicial officer Roger Morris amended the charge to "dangerous charging or obstructing or grabbing of an opponent without the ball, including shouldering", in breach of World Rugby's regulations.
The decision that the complaint should be reheard by a different judicial officer from the original disciplinary hearing was made by an independent appeal committee on 23 December.
Jeremy Summers has been appointed as the independent judicial officer for the new hearing.


A central provision of President Barack Obama's healthcare reform law has taken effect, having survived Republicans' years-long effort to undermine it.

Markets run by federal and state governments opened for the millions of Americans seeking insurance plans.
As many as seven million Americans who do not already have health insurance are eligible to purchase coverage in the coming months.
Republican opposition to the law led to the government shutdown on Tuesday.
At the White House on Tuesday, Mr Obama said the opportunity would be "life changing" for the "15% of Americans who don't have health insurance".
"Tens of thousands of Americans die each year just because they don't have health insurance," Mr Obama said, with Americans set to sign up for plans standing behind him.
"Millions more live with the fear that they'll go broke if they get sick. And today, we begin to free millions of our fellow Americans from that fear."
While Mr Obama and his supporters in the Democratic Party portray the law as a historic effort to extend healthcare coverage to the millions of Americans who lack it, the law's opponents say it amounts to an unprecedented intrusion into Americans' private lives.
The online health insurance marketplaces, or exchanges, struggled to meet higher than expected demand on Tuesday, with many users reporting long waiting times.
Health and Human Services spokeswoman Joanne Peters told the Associated Press news agency the agency was "prepared to make adjustments as needed [to] improve the consumer experience".
Users also reported errors while trying to create accounts and site crashes on the websites.
"The first day of something that you know is going to have a lot of bugs, it's not that frustrating," Mike Weaver, a self-employed photographer without insurance told the Associated Press.
"If it was the last day to sign up... then I'd be terribly frustrated."
Mr Obama acknowledged the glitches and delays.
"We found out that there have been times this morning where the site has been running more slowly than it normally will," Mr Obama said.
"The reason is because more than one million people visited healthcare.gov before 7:00 in the morning."
The exchanges will continue to enrol people through the end of the year for healthcare plans slated to begin next year.
The opening of the exchanges was the culmination of more than three years of political combat in Washington over the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, signed into law by Mr Obama in 2010 and known to both sides as Obamacare.
Republicans in Washington and in state capitals across the country have fought hard to undermine or undo the law since its passage, with the US House of Representatives taking dozens of symbolic votes to repeal it or eliminate its funding.
A legal challenge led by the law's Republican opponents ended in June 2012 when the Supreme Court validated the law's keystone provision - a requirement that Americans not receiving health coverage from their employers or the government purchase individual plans or pay a fine.
That requirement, known as the individual mandate, takes effect in January.
The healthcare law was also a central issue in the 2012 presidential election. Republican candidate Mitt Romney vowed to press for its repeal. Mr Obama handily won re-election.
On Tuesday, the US government shut non-essential services, keeping more than 700,000 workers at home, when the Democrats who control the Senate refused to agree to Republican demands to repeal the health law or delay the individual mandate.
Both Mr Obama and congressional Democrats have said they will not negotiate on Obamacare, with Mr Obama on Monday evening accusing the Republicans of attempting to refight the last election.
In spite of the political turmoil in Washington, on Tuesday Americans were able to enrol in insurance plans offered by private companies and ranging in price and level of coverage through exchanges in every state.
Sixteen states and Washington DC have opted to operate their own exchanges, while the exchanges in 34 states will be fully or partially run by the federal government.
Exchanges will also inform customers of tax subsidies available to ease the cost of the insurance. An estimated six million US citizens are expected to qualify.
Customers enrolling under Obamacare will not be covered by the insurance until 1 January however.
That corresponds with the start of the individual mandate, as well as consumer protections including a rule barring insurers from denying coverage to people with pre-existing health conditions.
Several Obamacare provisions had taken effect prior to Tuesday, including prescription drug discounts for pensioners, a rule allowing children to remain on their parents' insurance plans up to age 26, a rule barring insurers from denying coverage to children with pre-existing health conditions, and a ban on lifetime limits on health coverage.
Another major provision known as the employer mandate - which requires employers with at least 50 full-time workers to provide insurance or incur a $2,000 (Â£1,320) per employee penalty - has been delayed until 2015.
That delay, announced by the Obama administration in July, has been seen as a concession to retailers and other businesses - and an acknowledgement that the health law was not fully ready for implementation.


Pep Guardiola needed a late Paddy McNair own goal to make a winning start at Manchester City as David Moyes lost his first game as Sunderland manager.

Sergio Aguero's penalty, after Raheem Sterling was fouled by Patrick van Aanholt, gave City an early lead.
But Guardiola, who left England keeper Joe Hart out of his starting XI, saw his new side concede to Jermain Defoe.
City made few chances, but snatched an 87th-minute winner when debutant McNair headed into his own net.
It had been 195 days since City announced Guardiola would succeed Manuel Pellegrini at Etihad Stadium, and results stagnated during that period, with five wins from last season's final 15 Premier League games leading to a fourth-placed finish.
Guardiola, 45, arrived in Manchester with six league championships to his name - three each from his spells at Barcelona and Bayern Munich - and brings an expectation he will guide City to a first Premier League title since 2014.
But any hopes of an instant revolution were curtailed by a lethargic performance that lacked creative spark, despite dominating possession against a side that only avoided relegation in their penultimate game last season.
And, while City may have required good fortune for the decisive goal - McNair heading in Jesus Navas' cross at the back post, it provides a winning platform for Guardiola, who was lacking injured first-team players Vincent Kompany, Samir Nasri, Nicolas Otamendi and new signings Leroy Sane and Ilkay Gundogan.
Hart's absence from the starting line-up is the most eye-catching decision of Guardiola's early days at City, and will raise the question whether the 29-year-old's 10-year stay at Etihad Stadium could be coming to an end.
The former Shrewsbury player has made 347 appearances for City, winning two Premier League titles, an FA Cup, two League Cups and 63 England caps, but Guardiola opted to start with Willy Caballero.
The Argentine made a notable stop from a point-blank Defoe effort, before the striker slid home a cool finish.
Midfielder Yaya Toure was left out of the squad altogether, but the influential Ivorian may have been saved for Tuesday's first leg of the Champions League qualifier at Steaua Bucharest.
John Stones, a £47.5m summer signing from Everton, looked composed at the heart of City's defence alongside Aleksandar Kolarov, and fellow debutant Nolito put in an enthusiastic performance on the wing.
Sunderland's preparations for the new season were torn apart by manager Sam Allardyce's decision to leave for the vacant England job, but his departure opened the door for Moyes' return to the Premier League.
The Scot's reputation was knocked by a difficult year as Manchester United boss, followed by an equally chastening 12 months at Real Sociedad.
But he could well be liberated by the shift in pressure from replacing the legendary Sir Alex Ferguson at Old Trafford to starting out at a club looking to improve on last season's 17th-placed finish.
Three of Moyes' four summer signings featured, Donald Love starting at right-back, and Adnan Januzaj and McNair coming off the bench, but the latter's debut will be remembered for the own goal he scored just three minutes and 35 seconds after coming on.
Despite rarely seeing the ball, Sunderland restricted the hosts' chances and will be buoyed by the quality of their goal - Defoe scoring in his 16th Premier League season by slotting home from a Jack Rodwell through-ball.
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola: "It was tough for everybody and that is why people say the Premier League is tough. We were constant and we deserved the victory.
"All of the new signings were a team so we fight. We spoke many times what we should do like a team - this is just the first step.
"But, of course, for the new people, new manager, new players to start winning helps to believe in what we are doing."

Sunderland boss David Moyes: "You couldn't deny that City were the better team because of the players and the football they played but we did everything we could to make their football difficult for them.
"For long periods we did a great job at it, but it is disappointing that we gave away the second goal.
"But I can't be critical of the players because they did a great job defensively and all-round really - just disappointed we didn't get a point."

A 13-year-old boy died after he was fatally injured by an airgun pellet, police have confirmed.

Ben Wragge, of Thurston, Suffolk, was fatally wounded at a property on Sunday afternoon.
He died later at West Suffolk Hospital in Bury St Edmunds. A post-mortem examination showed he died from a single wound caused by an air pellet.
Two teenagers arrested on suspicion of manslaughter were released on police bail until 16 June.
Police said they were continuing to investigate the circumstances of the incident.


Manchester City are out of the Champions League after Monaco struck late to seal a thrilling away-goals victory, which ended 6-6 on aggregate.

The English side were 13 minutes from a place in the quarter-finals after clawing themselves back into a second leg their hosts had dominated, but slack marking from a set-piece allowed Tiemoue Bakayoko to head home the decisive goal.
Having won the competition twice in his time at Barcelona, this is the first time in manager Pep Guardiola's career that he has gone out at this stage.
Monaco lost 5-3 in an extraordinary first leg in Manchester but dominated the first half at the Stade Louis II and opened the scoring through the excellent Kylian Mbappe's poked finish from close range.
The Ligue 1 side, who had scored 123 goals so far this season, deservedly doubled their advantage on the night, punishing City's sluggish start through Fabinho's crisp strike.
City failed to muster any sort of shot in the opening 45 minutes and it took until the 65th minute for Sergio Aguero to call goalkeeper Danijel Subasic into a sharp save.
They forced their way into the game - and back into the aggregate lead - as Leroy Sane swept in when Subasic parried Raheem Sterling's low strike, but their defence could not hold out.
The result leaves Premier League champions Leicester City as the only English team in the last eight.
Monaco join the Foxes, holders Real Madrid, last year's runners-up Atletico Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund and Juventus in Friday's draw.
Having gained a two-goal advantage at home, City boss Pep Guardiola had vowed his side would go on the attack in order to finish the job.
But while the Spanish coach can boast the best record of any manager in Europe after 100 games, he opted to start with only Fernandinho in the middle of the park against the aggressive and youthful French side.
Five attack-minded players were deployed in front of the Brazilian midfielder, while Yaya Toure was left on the bench, and it proved a costly move as City were overrun by sharper opponents.
Although they pulled a goal back on the night through Sane - putting them briefly back in front in the tie - the English side never recovered from their poor first-half showing.
Big-money signing John Stones struggled again and Monaco's winning goal epitomised the fragility of the visitors' defensive backline, as the impressive Bakayoko was allowed a free header eight yards from goal.
Guardiola has said his maiden City season will be a failure if he cannot deliver a trophy, but barring a dramatic Chelsea collapse in the Premier League, the Spaniard's only realistic hope of silverware is now the FA Cup.
The City boss made some unwelcome history in France as his side became the first team to be eliminated in a Champions League knockout tie after scoring five goals in the first leg.
The Ligue 1 leaders were missing star striker Radamel Falcao, who had failed so spectacularly in England with loan spells at Manchester United and Chelsea.
But the home side took the game to City, allowing them little time and space on the ball, forcing errors and taking their chances superbly. Although they began to tire in the second half, the 2004 runners-up managed to edge through.
Eighteen-year-old striker Mbappe - who has earned comparisons to retired France great Thierry Henry - found the net after just eight minutes for his 17th goal of the season, fed by the brilliant Portuguese midfielder Silva.
Benjamin Mendy caused all sorts of problems by bombing on from full-back, but man of the match Bakayoko deservedly took his side through with the winning goal.
The towering France Under-21 international controlled the midfield and gained possession nine times - more than any team-mate.
Former Manchester United defender Phil Neville on BBC Radio 5 live:
They have been two brilliant football matches. City lost it in the first half when they were outplayed, outfought and were bullied.
They got back into the game and they thought they were through. But their Achilles heel was a sloppy goal. Another year has failed to live up to expectations.
I am not so sure the signings over the last five years have been that good, but when Leroy Sane scores, Pep Guardiola is thinking 'this is perfect, we can control the game from here'. Then they concede.
Guardiola doesn't go out there and spend the bulk of his money on defenders. He will be thinking if they had put one of those chances away they would be in the next round.
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola, talking to BT Sport: "We played exceptional second half but we forgot to do that in the first. We wanted to defend aggressively. We were better in the second but it wasn't enough.
"Normally we play to a good level but here we didn't. We will learn. The team does not have a lot of experience.
"The second half we had the chances and we didn't take them and that is why we are out. And set-pieces are so important at this level. Barcelona and Real Madrid scored from them last week. We were not there and we were not there in the first 45 minutes.
"We will improve but this competition is so demanding. Sometimes we have to be special and be lucky. We were not."

A survivor of the attack in Tunisia that killed 30 Britons has said he was "pushed" into holidaying in the country by a travel agent.

Paul Thompson told an inquest a Thomson agent had said a terror attack in Tunisia in March 2015 was a "one-off".
Repeating earlier comments he had made at the inquest, Mr Thompson said he had been told Sousse - where 38 were killed three months later - was "100% safe".
A Thomson agent said she would never have given that guarantee.
Islamist Seifeddine Rezgui killed 38 people at the five-star Riu Imperial Marhaba, near Sousse, on 26 June 2015, before he was shot dead by police.
The attack was the deadliest on Britons since the 7 July 2005 London bombings.
Mr Thompson told the inquest into the deaths of the Britons that he and his wife had visited a Thomson branch in Ilkeston, Derbyshire, on 5 May to discuss changing their holiday in Greece to a different destination.
He said they had been told there were "special deals" on offer to travel to Tunisia - weeks after 24 people had been killed in the attack at the Bardo National Museum in Tunis, the capital, on 18 March.
Mr Thompson said his wife had mentioned the attack, but the travel agent had compared avoiding Sousse to avoiding Skegness if there was an attack in London.
"We originally wanted Egypt but the travel agent pushed for Tunisia," Mr Thompson told the inquest.
But Amy Smallman, assistant manager of the Thomson branch in Ilkeston, told the inquest she did not tell the Thompsons the destination was "100% safe".
Ms Smallman said she does not give safety guarantees to customers because "nowhere is 100%", adding: "I wouldn't have said that."
Asked if she had been "pushing" Tunisia as a destination, she said: "No, not at all."
She also said it was "ridiculous" to suggest that a colleague would have made the Skegness remark.
The inquest heard the Thompsons had been looking for value and wanted to get more for their money, and Ms Smallman had said Tunisia was a "better value destination".
Mr Thompson said he was "100% certain" that he and his wife had been given the safety guarantee, adding that a holiday rep at a welcome meeting in Tunisia had also said the place was "100% safe".
He said he was "reasonably sure" that they had also been told that hotels in Tunisia were gated and had 24-hour security, but this is disputed too.
Asked if there had been a push from more senior people within the firm to sell Tunisia holidays, Ms Smallman said there had not been.
BBC news correspondent Daniela Relph
After the emotion and anguish over the past two weeks, as we heard the details of how people were killed in Sousse, the Tunisia inquests have now entered a new phase.
This week the focus will be on how individuals booked their holidays and how survivors viewed the security around the holiday resort.
They are key areas for the inquest and feed into the bigger questions - should British tourists have been allowed to go on holiday to Tunisia? Was Tunisia a safe destination?
Many of the bereaved sat in court listening to the evidence - taking their own notes and discussing the details.
This is an inquest that has made the needs of the bereaved families a priority.
The final witness of the day, Cheryl Stollery, lost her husband in the attack on the hotel.
She raised a rare laugh in court with some of her recollections around her holiday.
But she also spoke of how she had expected her travel agent to tell her of the dangers Tunisia posed, of the terrorist threat there.
She said the issues of security and safety were never mentioned to her.
The inquest also heard customers booking their holiday online would not have come across any reference to the Bardo attack as TUI - owner of Thomson and First Choice - did not make any changes to its website following the atrocity.
Cheryl Stollery, wife of victim John Stollery, said she had not been aware of the Bardo incident until after the Sousse attack in which her husband was killed.
The inquest is examining whether the UK government and travel firms failed in their responsibility to protect British tourists.
