Part of 1. 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Education – in the Senedd at 1:34 pm on 4 October 2017.
The Member makes a very valid point, and, from the time that I was on the health committee, which I enjoyed greatly, issues around medical diagnostics are, of course, crucial if we’re to tackle issues around waiting times for those tests. I and the Cabinet Secretary for health continue to work closely across Government to ensure that we are supporting both medical education and professions allied to medicine, and we invest more than £350 million each year, supporting more than 15,000 students and trainees through their education and training in a range of healthcare professions across Wales, including, as I said, both doctors and other professions.
