Part of 3. Topical Questions – in the Senedd at 3:19 pm on 21 November 2018.
Can I join the Cabinet Secretary and Members in praising the management of Cardiff Airport in my constituency? I welcome the latest passenger figures for the airport, which show that during the last financial year total passengers grew, year on year, by 9 per cent to reach 1.48 million.
