“I can at last really applaud one of our Welsh Government’s Ministers, Mrs Edwina Hart, Business and Enterprise Minister for seeing the light in terms of economic development in Wales.
I have long echoed the voice of Sion Barry, Business Editor of the Western Mail in believing that the future of South East Wales, in particular does not lie in the success of Cardiff solely but in the development of the Cardiff City Region as Sion repeats in today’s Western Mail.
The setting up of a group under the chairmanship of Elizabeth Hayward is to examine the potential role of regions in the planning of future economic development and prosperity in Wales is to be welcomed.
Let’s hope their Findings can be published quickly and we can start seriously competing with other regions of the UK and internationally.”
