'Wales can afford better pay for NHS staff' Plaid lays out its five-point plan for Welsh health services

Plaid Cymru leader Adam Price and health spokesperson Rhun ap Iorwerth have said they do not accept the Welsh Government's position that there is no scope for an increased pay offer for NHS workers in Wales. The two senior figures in Plaid made the claim they launched a five point plan to address the health crisis in Wales.

The party has drawn up a five point plan setting out how it believes a number of issues in Wales' health service could be addressed, from fairer pay and better social care to future proofing the NHS. The plans have been drawn up after discussions with groups representing NHS workers, Mr Price said.

Announcing the plans on Tuesday, Mr Price and Mr ap lorwerth, said that they disagree with the Welsh Government's stance that their is no scope for an increased pay offer in Wales. They added they support NHS workers who are not just striking for better pay and conditions but to save the NHS.
