Responding to the news that the First Minister has blamed NHS bosses for long waits, Andrew RT Davies MS, Leader of the Welsh Conservatives said:
“How can we expect the minister responsible for these long NHS waits to finally get them down if she can’t accept responsibility for them?
“As Health Minister, when it was her responsibility, Baroness Morgan failed abysmally to tackle excessive waits and they are now longer than they have ever been.
“NHS leaders and the Welsh Government’s own Healthcare Inspectorate agree that the bottleneck is Labour’s social care failure. Yet Eluned Morgan is prioritising vanity projects like creating more Senedd politicians.”
