P-05-1456 I demand a full public enquiry into the closure of Welsh Air Ambulance bases in mid and North Wales

 

This petition was submitted by Karl Ciz, having collected a total of 10,426 signatures.

 

Text of Petition:  

Recent announcement by Welsh Air Ambulance to close two bases and centralise its operations leaves whole swathes of Mid and Northwest Wales with inferior coverage. I believe the public need, and public opinion on the matter has not been listened to, and appeal to Welsh Government to intervene.

 

A full public enquiry should be launched.

 

Additional details:

 

Many of us feel our rights to Air Ambulance coverage will be eroded, and especially those of us in the mid and Northwest of Wales where the distances to nearest Accident and Emergency facilities are often very distant. This is a lifeline for many of us and it must not be removed without a full public enquiry.
