Part of 1. Questions to the Minister for Economy – in the Senedd at 2:08 pm on 29 September 2021.
Thank you, Minister. I am aware of the many exciting opportunities around the net-zero journey that exist within my area of Pembrokeshire, and in particular the huge opportunity that the Haven Waterway has to support not only the decarbonisation of industries in south Wales, but also the whole of the south of the UK. The south Wales industrial cluster is a key element of delivering these opportunities, and I understand that the cluster has been working with your office to support its formalisation. Welsh Government has formalised other industrial forums and food clusters, so this is not a new concept. With COP26 only weeks away, now would be a great opportunity for Wales to show how it is working with industries on the collective journey towards net zero. Can I ask you to provide reassurance that the—[Inaudible.]—will receive Government support at the earliest opportunity, giving a huge boost to industrial growth in west Wales?
