Monthly waiting times in Wales have risen again on the day the Welsh government announced an extra £120m to reduce them. The number of people waiting more than two years for treatment rose to more than 9,600 patients, up from about 8,400 last month. Statistics Wales said there had been changes into what was included in the date but there were about 789,900 waiting to start treatment in total, and an increase of about 1,100 pathways waiting when accounting for the changes.

Hospital services across a Welsh health board could be reorganised because they are so fragile. Hywel Dda health board has included critical care, stroke services, eye care and urology among those in need of urgent attention. Among the options would be to halve the number of acute stroke units and centralise planned urology cases and eye care.
