Commenting on the Auditor General for Wales’ audit of NHS bodies (2023-24) accounts revealing that all health boards breached their ‘break even duty’, Sam Rowlands MS, Welsh Conservative Shadow Health Minister said:
“This abysmal news is the result of Labour prioritising politicians and pet projects over the running of the Welsh NHS.
“The Labour Welsh Government has slashed other key budgets to put more into the NHS while getting even less out as waiting lists spiral out of control to new record highs.
“While the Welsh Conservatives believe it is past due for Labour to spend every penny they receive for health on the Welsh NHS, cash should also be prioritised for frontline delivery.”
