Call to abandon A&E shake-up in south Wales

There are calls for a major shake up of accident and emergency services in south Wales to be abandoned due to the crisis in demand.

The Conservatives said it would be "unacceptable" due to to increased pressure at casualty units.

The NHS is due to announce a cut in number of specialist A&E departments in south Wales from seven to four or five.

Officials say the current range of services can no longer be provided safely at all hospitals.
