The National Assembly Committee on Health has criticised the decision to shut down health facilities linked to the Social Health Authority (SHA) scandal, saying it affects patients.

The committee said instead of shutting down the facilities, the government should take legal action against the perpetrators of the scandal and also recover the lost funds.
