Question to the Wales Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, what discussions he has had with the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government on the potential effect of the Stronger Towns fund on Welsh communities.

I have had discussions with a number of cabinet colleagues about the Stronger Towns Fund and how this will apply across the UK. We will ensure that towns in Wales can benefit from the Fund, building on the success of our City and Growth Deals initiative.
