That's probably about 4,000 results, then, 4,000 surveys returned, if you employ 20,000 people. You'll have to have an incentive.

And what was it? Can you give it to me?

Part of that, though, is also celebrating the positives, which, unfortunately, doesn't always happen, and that will help, I think, your staff as well, and people wanting to come to use the service. Can I just ask you, has the health board received the 2023…

Previously, you talked about the culture going forward. It's so important for the retention of staff as well, isn't it, and recruitment going forward. So, talking about the compassionate leadership initiative, what will that look like? What are you trying to…

I'm just concerned about that partnership working when people are very defensive about budgets. That, as well, is an issue. Thank you. I better move on quick, I think. Regarding operational delivery, we've got a number of patients waiting one year for their…

Evidence Session: Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board
Thank you. I am concerned about the fact you've got 300 stuck in beds at the moment. That pathway into social care is a sticking issue. Also, we talk about occupational therapy in the community as well—for recovery, it's really important. I'm really concerned…

I'm mindful of the time. I'm just going to go on to operational delivery, if that's okay, Chair.

Okay. I just feel I should really—. I need to refer to the Public Services Ombudsman for Wales's and His Majesty's Coroners' concerns, which pointed to an inability of the health board to learn from service failures and to respond properly to complaints and…

Absolutely not, no. Thank you. Okay. Just carrying on regarding clinical governance, patients' experience and safety, so—. Let's see. Just regarding what arrangements do you have in place regarding the latest status of the review of clinical governance…

Okay, thank you. What's being done in response to the mental health unit's review—sorry, Chair—and the December 2023 prosecution by the Health and Safety Executive that resulted in the health board being fined £200,000?

Are you looking at a plan now? I know previously there were plans of maybe having hub areas. You talked earlier about having more community provision, so is there a specific plan that you're thinking of?

I just want to ask you some questions on the fragile clinical services. So, in cycle 3 of the special measures framework, the Welsh Government expects the health board to have clear improvement plans for many services, including vascular, urology…

It makes more sense, doesn't it, Natasha?

Okay. Well, I can do clinical services and roll it into 8, because they're very similar, if that's okay.
, Public Accounts and Public Administration Committee
Evidence Session: Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board
Shall I take clinical services, because they lead into question 8 as well?

Papers to note
Okay, thank you.

Papers to note
I welcome the extra funding that's gone into the HSG in the budget; I think it's referred to there. The Welsh benefits charter has been referred to in the letter, are we going to be doing work on that, looking into it in the forward work programme, because it…

Do you believe that the Welsh Government are doing enough to ensure that there are enough private rented homes that are accessible and adaptable for disabled and older people? Do you think more can be done?
