Part of 1. 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 1:33 pm on 20 June 2017.
We remain committed to delivering successful deals for all regions of Wales and to be a full partner in their development and delivery, because, as the Member has said, deals offer Wales, and particularly the regions of Wales, an opportunity to unlock additional Treasury funding to support interventions that can deliver sustainable economic growth. A lot of work needs to be done, of course, in order to get not just businesses, but businesses and local authorities to work together, but we know that that is a path that offers the best outcome for all the communities of Wales.
