Question to the Wales Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, what representations he has received from the Welsh Government on the proposed Swansea Bay City Region deal.
The UK Government is working constructively with local partners and the Welsh Government towards a city deal for the Swansea Bay City Region. I am determined that we work together to achieve a great deal for the region, which we will announce as soon as we are able. Given the advanced stage of the negotiations on a deal it would not be appropriate for me to release the contents of correspondence with strategic partners.
