Just last week, the Federation of Small Businesses published the report ‘Wales’ Missing Middle’, in which they stated that,

‘In the missing middle medium-sized firms, those employing between 50-250 people make up a slim 12 per cent of employment.’

They went on to say that, of those that do exist, they often face choices to sell to larger multinational entities rather than to pursue sustainable domestic growth. What plans does the Welsh Government have to address this issue and to what extent will it feature in the forthcoming economic plan?
