Part of 2. Questions to the Minister for Health and Social Services – in the Senedd at 2:31 pm on 15 January 2020.
Diolch, Llywydd. Does the Minister agree with the statement made by the First Minister yesterday in response to questions from Adam Price, when talking about pressures on the ambulance service? And I quote:
'The problem is not one that is soluble in the hands of the ambulance service alone...It is a whole-systems issue, in which we have to...clear people through the whole system so that, when the system comes under pressure, as...over the last few weeks, there is room at the front door.'
And does he further expect us to believe the First Minister when the First Minister told Adam Price that:
'we have resolved the problem...and the situation is much better than it was when I started as health Minister'?
Because I would submit, Llywydd, that is not the experience of my constituents who are served by Betsi Cadwaladr and by Hywel Dda health boards.
