I’ve also raised concerns in this Chamber with the First Minister on a series of announcements in my constituency. There have been further announcements recently on financial institutions, not only banks, closing: HSBC in Holyhead, and the Yorkshire Building Society in Llangefni. They are the latest two. The outcome of this, of course, is that there is a centralisation of services in regional hubs. We’re seeing a pattern of that emerging at the moment and that does deprive people of services as other Members have said.

Does the First Minister agree that the Welsh Government needs to put pressure on the UK Government to ensure that banks, if not as individual companies but as a wider sector, ensure that there are financial services that are accessible to all communities in Wales?
