It is a pleasure to see you in the Chair, Dame Caroline. I congratulate my hon. Friend the Member for Ynys Môn on securing this debate on cross-border healthcare and recognise her tireless work on improving local health services in her constituency. Although healthcare in Wales has been devolved for 25 years, it is important that all four nations work together to address shared challenges, such as dealing with the legacy of covid-19, which has left us with record waiting lists. In England, we are making good progress on reducing long waits, and by February this year, the number of patients waiting over 18 months had been reduced by almost 90%. A core part of our approach is empowering patients to make decisions on their care, which can lead to shorter waiting times for patients and a positive impact on the overall patient experience. The UK Government remains committed to working closer with the devolved Administrations on elective recovery and access to primary care. We have agreed to take forward inter-ministerial group meetings quarterly to discuss strategic issues and share lessons and approaches to demand management. Moreover, officials are working on sharing lessons and comparing approaches to support patients who have been waiting the longest through programmes like 'Getting it right first time'. Additionally, the Government is doing important work with devolved Administrations to improve data comparability in the UK, which is essential for policy evaluation and understanding health outcomes across different parts of the United Kingdom.
