Plans to treat more patients remotely and reports of racism faced by asylum seekers lead the papers.
A variety of stories lead Sunday's papers. The Sunday Telegraph reports that over half a million patients a year could be treated via video link under new plans designed to relieve pressure on A&E departments and set to be published on Monday. The paper reports that ministers think a fifth of all emergency admissions could be avoided if the right treatment can be brought to patients at home.
Housing Secretary Michael Gove has become the first minister to concede that the government shares some of the blame for the Grenfell Tower fire, the Sunday Times reports. In an interview with the paper, Gove says government guidance on building materials "allowed unscrupulous people to exploit a broken system". He adds that cladding firms were also at fault, suggesting they showed an "active willingness to put people in danger" for the sake of profit.
