Part of 1. Questions to the Minister for Economy and Transport – in the Senedd at 1:57 pm on 20 March 2019.
Yes. I'm pleased to say that TVR are making very great progress in terms of seeking capital support for their project. And in terms of physical infrastructure, the Member is absolutely right: JLL and many others have identified a very urgent need—not just within Ebbw Vale and Blaenau Gwent as a whole, but right across Wales—for industrial units, partly as a consequence of so many of the units that were developed and built in the 1980s reaching the end of their useful life. And so, that's why we're investing a huge proportion of the £100 million in industrial units that are appropriate for the sorts of businesses that want to locate in Tech Valleys. I should also say to the Member, with regard to the enterprise zone, that I'm pleased that we have now transitioned into a new governance structure—the Tech Valleys advisory board—which is looking specifically at the opportunities, not just within the automotive sector, but in the wider tech and digital environment, for jobs to be developed in Blaenau Gwent.
