Part of 1. 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Education – in the Senedd at 1:30 pm on 4 October 2017.
Thank you. I do understand that I have been asking questions of the Cabinet Secretary for Health, Well-being and Sport on medical education to date, but it’s good to ask a question to you as the Cabinet Secretary for Education today. Now that the pre-budget agreement has secured development funding for undergraduate medical education in Bangor, will you, as the education Secretary, tell us what sort of work programme you would want to see put in place in order to start to build towards the introduction of a full undergraduate course in Bangor for medical students based in Bangor University working in partnership with another medical school or medical schools, in addition to the steps that can happen immediately in terms of securing further placements for students in north Wales?
