Addressing the National Assembly recently, Health Minister Jane Hutt said, 'My vision for the future is not about getting rid of what we have now. It is not about centralising services and forcing patients to travel longer distances. Helping to implement the new plan will be Ann Lloyd who has been appointed the new NHS director in Wales. Ms Lloyd is a former chief executive of Frenchay Healthcare NHS Trust in Bristol.
Latest figures show a continued fall in the number of patients waiting for treatment in Wales.
