I would gently say to the Cabinet Secretary that it would be helpful if he answered the questions that were actually put to him and not simply read out his notes. I take it from his answer that he wasn’t aware that Finance Wales is breaking the spirit of the recommendations of his own Government’s access to finance review by continually bidding to run funds outside of Wales.

He will know that we’re in challenging economic times—[Interruption.] I’d give way to the Cabinet Secretary, if I were allowed to under Standing Orders. He’ll know that we are in very challenging economic times. Isn’t it time for the Welsh Government to put its foot on the accelerator rather than the break? We heard about the delay with the Circuit of Wales. The Government apparently is weighing up whether it wants to support the Egin project in Carmarthen. Two and a half years into the 2014-20 structural funds programme, we haven’t seen a single pound of capital investment on the ground in Carmarthenshire. The same is true in most parts of Wales, because the Welsh European Funding Office is still grinding with the same bureaucratic inertia as before. There’s been talk of a steel innovation centre—badly needed as a result of the news that we’ve heard from Newport. But where is it? Now we hear the transatlantic connector that was promised as part of the bid for the Swansea city region may be at risk as well. Macro caution, micro complacency, delaying big decisions and making a mess of the small ones. Doesn’t Wales deserve better?
