Part of 1. 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 1:36 pm on 7 February 2017.

That’s more than four times the Government’s 26-week target. What specific action is your Government taking, given that this health board is in special measures, to address this particular problem with orthopaedic waiting times, across north Wales and, in particular, at Glan Clwyd Hospital?
