Question to the Wales Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, what recent progress the Government has made on a North Wales growth deal.
Answered by Guto Bebb
I visited Coleg Cambria last week to attend the North Wales Growth Deal Summit with the Welsh Government Cabinet Secretary Ken Skates, the North Wales Economic Ambition Board, Mersey Dee Alliance, the Rail Task Force, CBI and the FSB.
It is vital that partners come together to bring forward a deal that works across the border and drives economic growth.
