Diolch, Lywydd. Three quick-fire questions for you, Cabinet Secretary: firstly, in view of the significance of the rail franchise and metro project for the south Wales Valleys, I was wondering what consideration you’ve given to locating the Transport for Wales team in the Valleys.

Secondly, the metro project offers the opportunity to reconnect communities that have lost their public transport services. Do you think it would be possible to reintroduce rail services to areas that have suffered from the Beeching axe? I’m thinking in particular of the village of Hirwaun in my constituency.

Finally, like most colleagues representing Valleys constituencies, I receive frequent complaints about the inadequacies of Valleys lines services. What measures could the Welsh Government build into any future franchise so that the needs of commuters are placed first and foremost in any provision of rail services?
