• Princess Royal Hospital Telford: Proposed Prison: Port Talbot — [Mr Graham Brady in the Chair] 12 Sep 2017

  The Minister began to explain the infrastructure decision and why the Baglan site was considered to have better infrastructure than the Felindre site, but he did not give any more detail. As I said, junction 46 gives far easier access than junction 41, so why was Felindre considered to have poorer infrastructure than Baglan?

• Princess Royal Hospital Telford: Proposed Prison: Port Talbot — [Mr Graham Brady in the Chair] 12 Sep 2017

  We are talking about job creation and enterprise. What does the Minister advise me to say to local businesses in the Baglan area that have already said that they will shut up shop if the prison goes ahead, which would mean the loss of hundreds of local jobs?

• Princess Royal Hospital Telford: Proposed Prison: Port Talbot — [Mr Graham Brady in the Chair] 12 Sep 2017

  The Minister is being generous with his time. We have invited him to a public meeting in Port Talbot on 20 September, but he has said he is unable to attend. Can he confirm that someone from his team can attend that meeting?
