Economy Update

Proceeding contribution from Virginia Crosbie (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 16 June 2021. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Economy Update.

Thanks to decisions made by this Government, recent ONS data shows that UK unemployment is among the lowest in Europe at 4.7%, with almost 200,000 more people in work since April. My families on Ynys Môn desperately need more jobs, and a freeport on Anglesey would create thousands of high-skilled job opportunities. Can the Minister please update the House on what discussions he has had with the Welsh Government about the creation of at least one new freeport in Wales?
