Question to the Wales Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, whether the Government plans to hold a Wales investment conference.

The UK Government is committed to growing the economy of Wales, creating well-paid jobs and opportunity right across the country.

The second Global Investment Summit will be hosted by the Department for Business and Trade this Autumn, showcasing Welsh businesses to investors from around the world.

Day to day, the Office of the Secretary of State for Wales works closely with the Department for Business and Trade and the Office for Investment to support growth and investment. This has led to forty-seven new foreign direct investments in Wales during 2022/23, creating 3,062 new jobs (a five-year record).
