The significant challenges faced by people living with Parkinson’s disease have been exacerbated by the additional impact of COVID on carers, friends and families. The health Minister will respond shortly to the recommendations of the cross-party group on neurological conditions as we continue to improve services for people affected by Parkinson’s.

This winter we have extended the eligibility criteria to ensure that more people can have a flu vaccine. Sufficient vaccine supplies will be available to support increased demand. We are working with key partners so that everyone eligible can get vaccinated before flu starts to circulate, usually in December.

I have had frequent discussions regarding the Welsh devolution settlement with members of the UK Government. I have repeatedly made it clear the devolution settlement, as supported by the people of Wales in two referendums, must be respected and strengthened, to secure a stronger United Kingdom.
