The motion
That this House notes with concern the lengthy wait times for ambulances in Newbury; further notes with alarm that only 18% of calls in Hungerford and Lambourn about life-threatening conditions are responded to within eight minutes when the response target time for such calls is seven minutes; recognises the significant impact that these long wait times may have on people's health and the potential increase in avoidable fatalities; also notes that as of March 2024, 22% of ambulances were waiting outside of the Royal Berkshire Hospital for longer than 30 minutes; and calls on the Government to recognise the negative impact this is having on the country and bring forward plans to combat these long wait times.
