Part of 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Transport – in the Senedd at 1:55 pm on 28 November 2018.
Well, Cabinet Secretary, I feel I may be echoing some of your sentiments there, but, Cabinet Secretary, is it not time to silence your critics and point out that bringing Aston Martin to Wales opens up the possibility of attracting other iconic names and high-profile companies to invest in Wales? These are the companies that can help bring long-term quality jobs and wealth to the country. Later today, we debate the Economic, Infrastructure and Skills Committee report on selling Wales to the world. What better way is there to reinforce Wales's credentials as an outward-looking progressive country than to have such a prestigious company locate here? So, will you take my advice, Cabinet Minister, which is, quite simply, publish and be damned?
