Part of 1. 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 1:57 pm on 20 September 2016.
I think I’ve answered part of that question, but she needs to be careful about what she wishes for, because it would also mean that companies from Wales and the rest of the UK would be blocked from bidding for contracts in the much larger market of the European Union, which is not something that we would want to see. That said, it’s hugely important that we can develop a procurement policy further in the future in order to build on the already successful results that we have seen, to make sure that more and more money is kept locally.
