Opposition MSPs blast Lanarkshire's 'deplorable' A&E waiting times

Graham Simpson has slammed the latest A&E waiting times in Lanarkshire as "deplorable".

The latest national waiting time statistics showed just 68 per cent of patients across Scotland were seen within four hours of arriving at an emergency ward - the second worst performance on record.

Across NHS Lanarkshire, just 63 per cent were seen within four hours, significantly short of the SNP’s target of 95 per cent of A&E patients to be seen within four hours - this has not been met since July 2020.
