First Minister, this pandemic has had a severe impact on primary care, placing additional obligations and burdens on an already struggling workforce. We know we need to recruit more GPs to cope with workloads in normal times, but, as we enter cold and flu season with COVID-19 still running rampant, the pressures will be immense. First Minister, we know technology can play, and does play, a role in reducing these pressures, so what plans does the Welsh Government have to expand the availability of telemedicine in primary care in Wales? Diolch.
