  • People, Places and Policy
    People, Places and Policy Set within the context of UK devolution and constitutional change, People, Places and Policy offers important and interesting insights into ‘place-making’ and ‘locality-making’ in contemporary Wales. Combining policy research with policy-maker and stakeholder interviews at various spatial scales (local, regional, national), it examines the historical processes and working practices that have produced the complex political geography of Wales. This book looks at the economic, social and political geographies of Wales, which in the context of devolution and public service governance are hotly debated. It offers a novel ‘new localities’ theoretical framework for capturing the dynamics of locality-making, to go beyond the obsession with boundaries and coterminous geog- raphies expressed by policy-makers and politicians. Three localities – Heads of the Valleys (north of Cardiff), central and west coast regions (Ceredigion, Pembrokeshire and the former district of Montgomeryshire in Powys) and the A55 corridor (from Wrexham to Holyhead) – are discussed in detail to illustrate this and also reveal the geographical tensions of devolution in contemporary Wales. This book is an original statement on the making of contemporary Wales from the Wales Institute of Social and Economic Research, Data and Methods (WISERD) researchers. It deploys a novel ‘new localities’ theoretical framework and innovative mapping techniques to represent spatial patterns in data. This allows the timely uncovering of both unbounded and fuzzy relational policy geographies, and the more bounded administrative concerns, which come together to produce and reproduce over time Wales’ regional geography. The Open Access version of this book, available at www.tandfebooks.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 3.0 license.

  • Y Gwir Anrh/Rt Hon Carwyn Jones AC/AM Prif Weinidog Cymru/First Minister of Wales
    Y Gwir Anrh/Rt Hon Carwyn Jones AC/AM Prif Weinidog Cymru/First Minister of Wales Ann Jones AM Chair Committee for the Scrutiny of the First Minister National Assembly for Wales Cardiff Bay Cardiff [email protected] 29th March 2018 Dear Ann, I am writing in response to your letter of 15 March following my appearance before the Committee in Newtown on 16 February. My responses on each of your points are below. Welsh Government support for businesses participating in trade missions Developing new export business requires a certain level of investment of time and money from companies. The Welsh Government contributes to this investment with both free and subsidised advice and support. Companies should not see trade missions as the first step towards exporting. Whilst they are a good way of assessing the potential opportunities in a market, they require a significant amount of advance preparation to ensure companies can maximise the benefit from their time in market. A great deal of support is available to help companies prepare for the trade missions, much of which is free or heavily subsidised. As I mentioned in Newtown, sharing the cost demonstrates a joint commitment and partnership between the company and Welsh Government. The cost of participation is substantially subsidised and, if a company is serious about exporting, then this should not be a barrier to joining a trade mission. There are three different types of intervention to take a company to market which are: Food and Drink Trade Development visits; attendance at major trade shows; and multi-sector trade visits.

  • Perthynas Cymru Yn Y Dyfodol  Phwyllgor Y Rhanbarthau
    PERTHYNAS CYMRU YN Y DYFODOL Â PHWYLLGOR Y RHANBARTHAU Mick Antoniw AC a Bethan Sayed AC Aelodau Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru ar Bwyllgor y Rhanbarthau Ionawr 2019 Perthynas Cymru yn y dyfodol â Phwyllgor y Rhanbarthau 1. Cyflwyniad Mae gan Gymru enw da yn Ewrop. Mae Llywodraeth Cymru'n cael ei pharchu ac mae ein haliniad polisi gydag Ewrop yn cael cryn gydnabyddiaeth. Fodd bynnag, nid yw'n ddigon cyd-dynnu'n dda â sefydliadau, llywodraethau, cyrff rhanbarthol, trefi a dinasoedd Ewrop. Mae arnom angen strategaeth sy'n golygu y gallwn baratoi ar gyfer perthynas ar ôl Brexit a fydd yn galluogi Cymru, drwy Lywodraeth Cymru, llywodraeth leol, busnesau a sefydliadau addysgol, i barhau i gael budd o'r trafodaethau yr ydym wedi eu cael, ac wedi eu cymryd yn ganiataol yn y gorffennol o bosibl. Mae'r adroddiad hwn yn canolbwyntio ar Bwyllgor y Rhanbarthau, sefydliad yr Undeb Ewropeaidd sy'n cynnwys cynrychiolaeth uniongyrchol o Gymru. Nid yw'n hysbys iawn y tu allan i gylchoedd gwleidyddol, ond mae'n fforwm polisi a gwleidyddol pwysig yn yr UE. Gellid dadlau, ysywaeth, ei fod yn sefydliad nad yw wedi sefydlu gwir hunaniaeth unigryw ac mae'n gweithredu ochr yn ochr â'r Comisiwn, y Cyngor Gweinidogion a Senedd yr UE. Mae gennym hefyd gynrychiolaeth ar nifer o gyrff a sefydliadau pwysig eraill yn yr UE, i'w gweld yn y rhestr isod. Pwyllgor y Rhanbarthau yw llais unigryw llywodraethau is-genedlaethol, rhanbarthol a lleol, ac mae'n cynnig cyfle i gynnal trafodaethau eang ar draws Ewrop gyda'r sefydliadau pwysicaf yn yr UE ac ar draws Ewrop.
