Part of 1. Questions to the Minister for Economy and Transport – in the Senedd at 2:15 pm on 8 May 2019.
Well, we are certainly reviewing the work of the taskforce. My colleague Alun Davies published a delivery plan just before Christmas that captures the range of activities going on across Government in the Valleys taskforce area. As a result of that, a great deal of work has been taking place and progress is being made. So, for example, the work in developing the metro has been heavily informed by the strategic hub in Caerphilly, for example. There's now work going on with the council to create an integrated transport hub there that simply wouldn't have happened had it not been for the creation of the Valleys taskforce. As I said, we are looking to try and take a more thematic approach. As a result of that, we may well be looking to reshape some of the membership of the Valleys taskforce to make sure that we've got the right skills there to take that work forward.
