Welsh ambulances: £9.5m upgrade for fleet

Almost £9.5m is to be spent upgrading the Welsh ambulance fleet in an investment prompted by demands on the service.

Health Minister Mark Drakeford said emergency ambulances and rapid response vehicles will be among 110 replaced.

The news came ahead of an assembly debate on a wide-ranging review of the under-fire ambulance service.

BBC Wales health correspondent Owain Clarke reports, followed by an interview with the review's author Prof Siobhan McClelland.
