What assessment has the Cabinet Secretary made of the predicted pressure that will be placed on the Solva GP surgery as a consequence of 2,500 patients being transferred to them following the closure of the St Davids surgery in October?

Health boards are responsible for the planning and delivery of primary medical services to their populations; the NHS Wales Planning Framework 2022-2025 sets out guidance to boards in the planning of all health care services.
I expect Hywel Dda University Health Board to have assessed the consequential impact on services and necessary mitigating actions in accordance with its statutory obligations.
