Obviously, I don't have any knowledge of the two GP practices that you referred to. I do know from my own postbag in Wrexham that access to GP services is not where we would want it to be in north Wales. I know that the health board have just appointed a new—I'm not sure if it's a director but it's certainly an officer in relation to primary care, and I'm due to have a meeting with her to discuss issues in my constituency, and I would encourage you to do that, because I think if we are trying to avoid the increased number of people we're seeing in A&E because they can't get access to their GP services, then it is very important that the health board grasps this and deals with these difficulties.
