SCOTTISH Labour is demanding a public inquiry after revelations that a new £150 million children’s hospital in Edinburgh cannot be opened because it is unsafe.
Taxpayers are also forking out £1.4 million a month in service charges to the private consortium Integrated Health Solutions Lothian (IHSL), which built the 200-bed Edinburgh Royal Hospital for Children and Young People, despite it standing idle.
Labour and public service union Unison say Scotland’s Health Secretary Jeane Freeman should resign over the debacle.

We need a massive change in direction to renew a crumbling health service — that’s why Plaid Cymru has an ambitious plan to recentre primary care by recruiting 500 additional GPs and opening six new elective care hubs across Wales, writes MABON AP GWYNFOR
