Increasing capacity is a key commitment in our planned care recovery plan. This is supported by an annual recurrent commitment of £170 million, together with £15 million for transformation. In 2022-23, we have seen additional capacity in Cardiff and Vale, Swansea bay and Hywel Dda. All health boards are developing local and regional plans for 2023-24.
