Thank you. I want to give you an assurance that the nurse bursary will remain. I'd like to emphasise that what we need is a fair funding settlement from the UK Government, which recognises the hard work of all of our NHS staff and other public sector workers and provides them with a fair reward for the jobs that they do.
I take this opportunity again to implore the UK Government to consider the significant impact industrial action will have on the delivery of services, and to provide additional funding for a fair pay award for staff to avoid industrial action and the impact that that will have on patient care. Diolch yn fawr.
