Part of 3. 2. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Health, Well-being and Sport – in the Senedd at 2:59 pm on 19 July 2017.
I thank the Cabinet Secretary for that information. I understand from the Communication Workers Union that there’ve been 1,750 days lost by Royal Mail staff across the UK during the last year due to dog attacks. There’ve been some terrible injuries to postal staff including fractures, tendon damage, and even amputations. So, I’m grateful that we have those Wales-wide figures, because would he agree that having the figures from the health service will be a help in contributing to assessing the overall picture and informing the view of what actions need to be taken in order to address this growing problem?
