There is little point in building houses unless the infrastructure is in place to support it. You already have a state of the art medical centre in West End with hardly enough doctors to man it. Rhoslan have been trying to replace retirees for years without success, Old Colwyn runs in the main by part-timers and Abergele have closed their doors to all outside their catchment areas. It must be faced doctors don't want to come to North Wales, just like Government staff from Cardiff area.

Noted. If a need is identified for additional primary care capacity in the area the planning process can provide land to support this need where required. It is up to the Health Board in discussion and consultation with local GPs to determine the format of provision and resolve any staffing issues.
