Questions to the Trefnydd, Chief Whip and Cabinet Minister for Culture and Sport
Thank you, Dirprwy Lywydd. May I be clear? There is creativity in every corner of Wales, but, because of a lack of support previously, a lack of a strategy and a lack of clarity in terms of support from Government, that potential hasn't always been realised…
