Part of 1. 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Education – in the Senedd at 1:33 pm on 4 October 2017.
Cabinet Secretary, as we discovered in the health committee, young people in Wales who study medicine in Wales are more likely to stay in Wales, which is why it is vitally important that we improve medical education opportunities in north Wales. Not only do we have a shortage of doctors and nurses in Wales, but we also have a massive shortage of radiologists. Cabinet Secretary, what is your Government doing to encourage more young people to consider a career in medical diagnostics, and what are you going to do to increase the number of training places and opportunities in radiology?
