The government has committed to invest almost £1.6 billion in City Deals in Scotland and Wales. Of this, £500m will be invested in the Cardiff City Deal over a 20 year period and £115.6m will be invested in the Swansea City Deal over a 15 year period. The government remains committed to agreeing a North Wales Growth Deal. Further detail on the funding of the Cardiff and Swansea City Deals can be found here:
