Part of 2. Questions to the Minister for International Relations and Welsh Language – in the Senedd at 2:50 pm on 20 November 2019.
Thank you, Deputy Minister, for that very detailed answer. Just last month, there was a very welcome announcement that, along with your ministerial colleagues, you jointly agreed to fund Sustrans to lead a partnership bid for assembling external funding for the reopening and running of both the Abernant and Rhondda tunnels. As I have said previously, I believe that reopening those tunnels could give a considerable boost, not least in terms of heritage and cycling tourism. I'd welcome your views on this and your thoughts on what actions could be taken by the Welsh Government to maximise the tourism potential if those tunnels did reopen.
