St David's Day debate

Parliament's general debate on Welsh affairs to mark St David's Day was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the successes of our nation, as well as to debate the challenges ahead and discuss how the UK Government can address them in collaboration with the Welsh Government.

This was followed by a reception in No. 10, where the Prime Minister and I met many people from Welsh business and the voluntary sector.
