Commenting on the latest NHS statistics for Wales revealing an increase in the number waiting for treatment, Sam Rowlands MS, Welsh Conservative Shadow Health Minister said:
“This abysmal set of statistics show why the Labour Welsh Government need to be held accountable for their performance running our Welsh NHS. I look forward to putting forward positive solutions to that end in my new role.
“Unlike in Conservative-run England, where waiting lists are being cut, the Labour Government have presided over yet another increase to the detriment of Welsh patients.
“The Welsh Conservatives want to see our Welsh NHS fully resourced with the entire Barnett uplift for health and a substantial workforce boosting plan implemented to tackle these excessive waits for treatment.”
