The ousted chair of a troubled health board has issued a damning letter criticising the First Minister Mark Drakeford and Health Minister Eluned Morgan. Ms Morgan is facing a vote of no confidence in the Senedd today over the handling of trouble at Betsi Cadwaladr Health Board.
Ahead of the vote, Mark Polin, the former Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board issued a damning statement weeks after he was forced to quit alongside other members of the independent board. In the statement which has been reported by North Wales Live, Mr Polin said the First Minister has ignored his letter and claims that Ms Morgan is trying to pass the blame.
A vote of no confidence in Health Minister Eluned Morgan has been called by the Welsh Conservatives and will be voted on in the Senedd on Wednesday afternoon. Plaid Cymru is expected to support the motion, however Liberal Democrat MS Jane Dodds is expected not to vote to support the no confidence. You can follow live updates on that here.
