Quotes

" who would be eligible for social care under the new bill ", behind her lurked William Powell, that master of ventriloquism. Amazing !"
"I have serious concerns about the provision of through 3 to 19 education on a single site. It is a route which the current Director of Education seems very keen on, as there are talks about them doing this elsewhere too. They have already done so at Llanhari, and there are rumours about it happening in the Mid Rhondda area at Tonypandy Community College."
Conservative health spokesman Darren Millar said any new investment "in our cash-strapped NHS" is welcome. But he added: "I fail to see how a decision to replace old ambulances with new vehicles will make a difference to failing response times. "The minister must roll up his sleeves and work hard to address the current crisis in unscheduled care in Wales, from dealing with the shortage of inpatient beds in our hospitals to increasing the number of ambulances and paramedics on our roads. "It is only actions like these which will really improve performance in the future." Kirsty Williams, leader of the Welsh Liberal Democrats, said: This document highlights that we have had systemic problems in our ambulance service for some time now that really must be tackled. Mr Drakeford will give a formal response to the findings later today."
Welsh Lib Dem leader Kirsty Williams: "Day in day out, lives are being put at risk."
