Part of 3. Topical Questions – in the Senedd at 3:29 pm on 11 January 2023.
Diolch, Dirprwy Weinidog. It's a new year, but it's the same old story when it comes to Cardiff Airport. This time, it's Wizz Air; a few months ago, Qatar Airways pulled out, that after investment from Welsh Government; perhaps the Deputy Minister could confirm whether or not Welsh Government provided any similar incentives to Wizz Air. But what is it going to take for the Government to make Cardiff a better success? We need it to be a success. We want it to be a success. And can I just say, unlike the Tories, I don't believe that privatisation is the answer? If the private sector can turn a profit, then so too can the Government. The Deputy Minister mentioned earlier in answer to Natasha Asghar that the airport is on a pathway to profit, what is that pathway, and how long is it going to take?
