Part of 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 1:41 pm on 28 September 2021.

Subject to confirmation by both local authority cabinets, we expect it to be submitted to both Governments in early October, and if all goes well, the full deal agreement could be completed by the end of this year.
