THE NHS, green economy and affordable housing will be the priorities of the Welsh government in 2025, Wales First Minister Eluned Morgan has said in a New Year’s message.

“Over the next year we will continue to focus on the things that you told us mattered most to you,” the Welsh Labour leader said.

“At the top of that list was more support for our NHS — so we’re investing more in equipment for the health service, speeding up how quickly patients are seen and cutting delays in patients being discharged so that they can get home more quickly.
