Part of 2. 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Infrastructure – in the Senedd at 1:56 pm on 21 June 2017.
Cabinet Secretary, can I welcome the fact that the ONS has now started to publish data at local authority level on two key measures of economic output and prosperity, that is gross value added and gross disposable household income. And I think there’s great potential, and I’d like the Welsh Government to say what they may do in this field, to ensure that, say, the Cardiff city deal—but it applies to other city regions—uses this information, and to measure their success in leading to economic prosperity and increase of wealth across the whole region. I think these are going to be key indicators.
