Commenting on the latest Welsh NHS escalation statement in the Senedd, Welsh Conservative Shadow Health Minister, Sam Rowlands MS said:
“As the issues in the Welsh NHS accumulate, people across Wales aren’t seeing the improvements we would expect after repeated Labour promises.
“Both Powys and Swansea Bay health boards have been escalated again, with Betsi Cadwaladr remaining in special measures. There has been next to no progress. In fact, the situation is getting worse.
“The Welsh Conservatives want to see every penny received as a result of health spending in England spent on the Welsh NHS to support health boards, with a substantial workforce plan enacted to boost retention and recruitment by offering healthcare workers a tuition fee refund.”
