Communities across Pembrokeshire have made it crystal clear to the local Health Board and Welsh Labour Government that they oppose the plans to close the A&E Unit at Withybush. There was a fantastic turnout of over 1,000 people of all ages from across our County on the march against the plans, and over 40,000 signed the petition.
The fact that these people have been ignored and the Health Board have this month agreed to plough on with their proposals to close Withybush A&E makes a mockery of the consultation process.
I will continue to work with our Welsh Assembly Member Paul Davies and the public to see these proposals ditched once and for all.
