§ Mr. MorganTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales what consultations he has had with the chairmen of the Welsh health authorities and trusts in relation to the timing of the opening of letters from general practitioners to consultants marked urgent and very urgent for triage by(a) others or (b) the consultants themselves; and what analysis he has made of the impact of setting maximum periods for the opening of general practitioner's referral letters.
§ Mr. RedwoodI have not discussed these matters with the chairmen of Welsh health authorities and trusts, nor have I considered assessing the impact of such targets.
