THE Welsh Ambulance Service has called off its strikes following 'significant progress' in talks. 

WAST were set to strike again on Monday (March 6) as part of ongoing industrial action. 

Trade unions representing NHS staff are in dispute with the Government over pay and working conditions. 

The dispute has resulted in a number of strikes, which have taken place since December.
