Part of 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 2:23 pm on 21 March 2023.
Prif Weinidog, Welsh NHS waiting lists continue to dominate my inbox. One of my constituents living with osteoporosis and five broken vertebrae has had to wait two years to be seen by a pain specialist. We are still awaiting the final decision on the location of a new hospital in west Wales—a build that won't be completed until the end of this decade at the earliest. Until that time, what action is your Government taking to ensure that waiting lists are tackled and constituents such as mine are not forced to wait over 24 months in constant pain to get the treatment that they are in desperate need of? Diolch.
