Part of the debate – in the Senedd at 5:43 pm on 12 June 2019.
Can I just take this opportunity to say—and I know the Member will be keen for me to reiterate this point—that not all of the money that was allocated to the black route is available for a road-based solution or for interventions purely on the M4? Because, of course, one of the reasons why the First Minister decided to not grant the orders was because it would have drawn capital from other social infrastructure. So, I think it's just important that we recognise that all of that money that would have gone into the M4 relief road would have led to fewer hospitals being built, fewer houses being built. And so it's important that we take forward that social infrastructure alongside any investment in the road.
