Leader of the house, could we have a statement from the Cabinet Secretary for health, please, in relation to a report about the realignment of district general hospitals in the Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University Local Health Board area and the Cwm Taf Local Health Board area? To date, I do not believe a statement has been forthcoming. This does have quite large implications for people in the west of the Vale of Glamorgan who use the Princess of Wales Hospital as their main district general hospital, and GP surgeries in particular in the western Vale who refer to the Princess of Wales Hospital. To give security of understanding of how these proposals might or might not progress, a Government statement would be welcome to actually see what the thinking is on the rationale behind any proposed changes in the current configuration of the health boards that run the Princess of Wales Hospital and the Royal Glamorgan Hospital, i.e. Cwm Taf health board and Abertawe Bro Morgannwg.
