Ambulance waiting times

Motion Text

That this House recognises the crisis in our ambulance services, particularly in rural and coastal communities; welcomes the Government’s commitment to fund specialised mental health ambulances across the country; urges the Government to improve the contributing factors to ambulance delays, including staff shortages, throughout the health and care service; calls on the Government to require ambulance service providers to report response times by postcode in order to target resource where it is most urgently needed; and repeats its call for the Government to commission the Care Quality Commission to review the ongoing ambulance crisis.
