22 Jul 2024Urgent and Emergency Care

I congratulate my hon. Friend on her election, and I also pass on my best wishes to her and her husband, who I know recently suffered a stroke. We hope he makes a speedy recovery.

My hon. Friend is first out of the blocks on this issue, and has shown his commitment to improving primary care for his constituents.

I am aware of the issues facing the south-west and, when in Opposition, I spoke in the local media about some of the ambulance challenges. I am not aware of those reports, but if the hon.
