Part of 2. 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Infrastructure – in the Senedd at 1:57 pm on 21 June 2017.
I know the Cabinet Secretary’s department is aiming to increase economic development in Wales and move towards prosperity for all. But is he aware of the announcement made by Tesco today that it plans to close Tesco House in Cardiff North in my constituency, with the loss of 1,200 jobs, and that the call-centre work will be moving to Dundee, where they’ll be creating 200 jobs? This affects a lot of people in Cardiff North and in surrounding constituencies. It’s been there for many years; I’ve visited it on many occasions. What can the Cabinet Secretary do with this dismaying announcement?
