Part of 2. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 2:02 pm on 14 November 2017.
The Valleys taskforce action plan commits us to using public procurement innovatively, so that we can exploit the job creation potential from the major infrastructure investments that we have in Wales. For example, programmes like the south Wales metro, major road schemes like the M4, and the ongoing work to dual the A465 will embed a community-benefit approach to ensure that outcomes are closely monitored so that communities get the maximum benefit from the schemes that are moving forward in their areas.
