Staff have hit out over changes to car parking at Swansea's Morriston Hospital which some fear will lead to fines, but Swansea Bay Health Board, which runs the facility has insisted the move will lead to more available spaces.
A new contractor is taking over the running of the car park, leading to new signs being erected. The change means people working at the hospital will need to apply for e-permits, and hand-held computers and CCTV cameras will be used to monitor use of the car park.
Fines can be issued for mis-use of the e-permits, but the health board has insisted they would only be used when "absolutely necessary". It said it was aware of concerns from staff, and that meetings were planned to discuss the changes and allow people to share their views.
