I thank the First Minister for that reply. I see also on the BBC website today that the Government has been in talks with a view to getting the golf Open championship to come to Wales, and the Tour de France as well, and also there’s a possibility, if the Brussels stadium is not ready in time, that Euro 2020 could be held in Wales, and I would support the Government’s interest in that. Ken Skates has quite rightly said that Wales has great potential to host major new events that haven’t yet been to Wales. The Circuit of Wales has already got the contract for the Moto Grand Prix, and that’s yet another opportunity for us in Wales to show what we can do as a host for major world sports projects. And therefore this fits into the Government’s overall objective for making Wales a major international sports venue, and that’s another reason for us to see the success of this project.
