Part of 2. 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 1:39 pm on 6 June 2017.
I would expect the Cabinet to meet in the course of the next fortnight, with the decision being taken, of course, at that Cabinet meeting. That is the plan at this moment in time. We want to get this dealt with, obviously, as the people of Blaenau Gwent would as well. I understand the great enthusiasm for the project, but we also have to temper that, of course, with ensuring that the project stacks up on its own, that the level of risk is acceptable, that there is substantial investment from the private sector, and that’s what we’ve been working with with the Circuit of Wales team. We want to be in a position where we can look at a sustainable model in a fortnight’s time, and, as I say, what I would like to do is deliver the Circuit of Wales, but we have to make sure that the model is robust, and that’s the point that we’re at now.
