Health and Social Care Committee update Dear colleague
Please see below update on the Health and Social Care Committee’s recent work, and what is coming up in the summer term.
Impact of the waiting times backlog on people in Wales who are waiting for diagnosis or treatment We published our report on 7 April 2022.
The Welsh Government is due to respond to our recommendations in May.
Mental health inequalities As part of our inquiry on mental health inequalities, we held scene-setting oral evidence sessions with mental health organisations and the Children’s and Older People’s Commissioners on 24 March 2022. These sessions drew on the written evidence we received from more than 90 people and organisations, and the focus groups we held with almost 80 people who have lived experience of mental health inequalities. You can find out more about this inquiry, and what we’ll be focusing on next, in our blog post.
