Diolch, Lywydd. First Minister, last week the Scottish Government’s Brexit Minister met with the UK Cabinet Secretary for leaving the EU in order to discuss what role the Edinburgh administration could play in the UK’s negotiating stance. Two weeks ago in Chicago you said that Wales cannot afford to be—and these are your words—

‘passive observers in this most momentous of decisions’.

Will you therefore now reconsider your decision not to appoint a dedicated Brexit Minister, or are you prepared to consign Wales to irrelevance?
