Part of 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 2:23 pm on 26 November 2019.
Thank you, First Minister. One of the standout findings from the report for me was the link between the former coalfield communities and deprivation, with 42 per cent of communities being amongst the 30 per cent most deprived in Britain, and the figure is even more pronounced for the south Wales coalfields area, where it stands at 52 per cent. How is the Welsh Government ensuring that tackling this link remains at the heart of all areas of policy making?
