Campaigners claim that First Minister Vaughan Gething and two of his Cabinet colleagues have broken the Welsh Government’s own regulations in approving a new £1bn cancer centre for south Wales.

Members of the Colocate Velindre group, who oppose the building of a new standalone centre in Cardiff, are accusing Mr Gething, Health Secretary Eluned Morgan and Finance Secretary Rebecca Evans of signing off the project before the project’s full business case has been properly scrutinised.

The campaign group, which believes the new cancer centre should be built adjacent to a district general hospital, also alleges that the Welsh Government’s own procurement rules have been broken in allowing two companies convicted in their own countries of bid-rigging to continue as members of Acorn, the construction consortium that won the building and maintenance contract for the new centre.
