- On 21 October 1966, a coal spoil-tip slide killed 116 children and 28 adults in Aberfan.
- At 9:15am, a cemetery memorial ceremony included a minute’s silence, prayers, wreath-laying and a short choir performance.
- Hundreds gathered along Moy Road, which was closed and cordoned off, ahead of the planned royal visit.
- Survivor Lynne Terrett shared her story for the first time, describing her rescue and sister Jillian’s death.
The strength of the community today is something to see and something to feel. To say also to them, I don’t think Aberfan was treated properly by the authorities and that also needs to be recognised because at a moment like this, I think all of those things need to be said and it’s right that the Prime Minister is here to say that to them.— Speech by Prime Minister Andy Burnham during his Aberfan visit; criticizing authorities for how Aberfan was treated and urging recognition.

- Özdemir said the rented home he shares with his wife and son would need extensive security upgrades, including windows and doors.
- Protecting the head of government would likely be easier for State Criminal Police Office officers at the villa.
- Özdemir initially could not say how many rooms he would use privately or what rent he would pay; rent is calculated by square metres.
- Özdemir’s predecessor Winfried Kretschmann did not use the villa; his wife Gerlinde considered 3,000 euros monthly net rent too expensive.
Therefore, it makes more sense to invest the money in a building owned by the state.— Cem Özdemir, Minister-President of Baden-Württemberg, regarding moving into the service villa at Schloss Solitude; he explains the rationale on security and budgetary grounds.
