Part of the debate – in the Senedd at 5:39 pm on 6 July 2021.
Minister, right across my region of South Wales East, communities have been shaped by Wales's industrial past and present. I'm pleased therefore to see the statement reaffirming your support for Wales's steel sector, and recognising the vital role that it will play in securing our low-carbon future.
But, Minister, from an educational angle—and you've already touched on it from my colleague Tom's question, and Luke's—what steps are the Government taking to make sure that the current and future workforce of the steel sector are futureproof and that they have the transferable skills and will be re-educated in those that they will need to have to continue to adapt and manage this transition to low-carbon production and the new ways of working? Thank you.
