Part of 5. Topical Questions – in the Senedd at 3:14 pm on 15 November 2017.
Llywydd, the Welsh Government is in constant communications with Aston Martin regarding this investment and the support that the Welsh Government can provide to the company to secure the investment and the maximum benefit from it, but, certainly, the Cabinet Secretary will, of course, have heard your comments and will continue to bear that in mind as he meets and supports Aston Martin.
Can I say, Llywydd, on a wider basis, that the Member for the Vale of Glamorgan has worked very hard to support and sustain this investment? She and I both understand the importance of this investment to the St Athan enterprise zone and we understand the importance of retaining free and unfettered access to the single market, and it is that objective that continues to guide the policy and approach of the Welsh Government with regard to Brexit. I think all of us raise our hands in horror at the way in which the UK Government is failing to deal with this most important issue.
