To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what remaining obstacles exist to agreeing the proposal by West Glamorgan health authority to retain a full on-site consultant-led obstetrics service at Neath hospital and its planned successor. [16333]

They have been asked to come forward in early March with firm proposals for the provision of maternity services.
