Leader of the house, it’s now been two weeks since the Welsh Government gave the Circuit of Wales company—. I think it was a two-week deadline, funnily enough, to provide assurances of their financial backers so that the project can move forward. I said in my debate last week on the Cardiff city region that I thought that this was a positive development for all the parties involved—a potentially transformative project for the Cardiff capital city region—but we do now need clarity on whether it can proceed. Can I ask for a statement from the Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Infrastructure at the earliest opportunity, so that we can sort this out once and for all and move forward, or not move forward as the case may be? At least then we’ll all know in the city region area exactly what we’re dealing with with this project.
