Part of 2. 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 1:43 pm on 6 June 2017.
Well, I’ve spoken to Kezia Dugdale. What we do know is the Tories will take money away from both Wales and Scotland, and that is something that is pretty clear in terms of their manifesto. The situation is quite simply this: upon the election of a Labour Government, Barnett would remain in place in the short term. There would then be a long-term funding formula put in place according to the needs of the different nations and regions of the UK, ensuring, of course, that no part of the UK is unfairly disadvantaged. That means that Barnett would come to an end at that time. I wonder where the commitment from the Conservatives is to ensure fair funding for Wales.
