During May 2023, the Wales Office was fully focused on delivering the Government’s key priorities for Wales; supporting economic growth in Wales, strengthening and sustaining the Union and Wales’s role within it, and increasing the visibility of the Government’s commitment to Wales. This included visits by the Ministerial team to highlight UK Government investment in Wales, including in grassroots sporting facilities; meeting key Welsh businesses, including Airbus; launching the Government’s National Semiconductor Strategy with the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology; engaging with local partners following our success in securing two freeports for Wales and continuing to work closely with local authorities to ensure our £790 million investment in City and Regional Growth Deals in Wales delivers jobs and economic growth. The Wales Office is keeping our ways of working under review, taking into account a variety of factors including current performance.
