Part of 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 2:02 pm on 16 July 2019.
First Minister, there was an alarming number of deaths and a large number of patients suffering severe harm due to patient safety breaches in our NHS over the past 12 months. Two thirds of the deaths and 58 per cent of the severe harm occurred in Betsi Cadwaladr. I'm sure that you will agree with me that this is unacceptable. So, First Minister, what is wrong with the culture at this health board, which is being run by your Government? Do you accept that there is a problem in how our NHS operates, and will you now back Helen Mary's Bill to improve NHS accountability?
