6. What recent discussions he has had with the Chancellor of the Exchequer on infrastructure investment in Wales.

[The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Wales (Guto Bebb)]

I hold regular discussions with Government Departments and the Welsh Government about infrastructure investment in Wales. We have invested £212 million in the new HMP Berwyn and committed more than £600 million to city deals in Cardiff and Swansea. Just last week, my right hon.
