'North Wales needs its own field hospitals'
Conservative MPs in North Wales are calling for action to ensure the region has adequate capacity to treat patients who test positive for coronavirus.
It comes after the decision to use Cardiff's Principality Stadium as a field hospital for up to 2,000 extra beds to help the NHS fight the outbreak.
Aberconwy MP Robin Millar said: "Our discussions with the chairman of Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board demonstrate both he and the chief executive grasp the urgency and importance of this matter.
"We are grateful that they are driving this forward and they have called a multi-agency meeting for Monday to confirm sites, timescale, process and clear resource requirements."
Vale of Clwyd MP Dr James Davies said: "North Wales needs its own field hospitals.
"We are determined to ensure that Betsi Cadwaladr gets the support it needs to deliver this.
"The NHS is devolved in Wales, so we need to be clear what access Welsh patients will have to local facilities or whether they will need to use provision in Manchester and Birmingham."
