Motion NDM6595 as amended:

To propose that the National Assembly for Wales:

1. Notes that the recent UK Government budget announcement:

a) did not contain specific new announcements for Wales; and

b) included downward revisions for economic growth, productivity and business investment.

2. Believes that the anticipated changes to the Welsh block grant reflect a continuation of failed austerity measures instead of new resources.

3. Regrets that the UK Government budget announcement did not commit any support to the Swansea Bay Tidal Lagoon.

4. Calls on the UK Government to lift its self-imposed public sector pay cap and fully fund a pay rise for all public sector workers.

5. Calls on the UK Government to devolve greater decision-making powers over infrastructure investment to Wales to support the Welsh economy.
