Wel, wrth gwrs, rwyf i’n cofio’r gwaith 20 mlynedd yn ôl. Rwyf i’n meddwl fy mod i’n cofio clywed yr Aelod yn siarad am y gwaith a beth oedd yn dod mas o’r gwaith mewn cynhadledd yma yng Nghaerdydd.

The map provides three footprints—the three city region footprints in effect—which we say will be responsible for economic development responsibilities. In that sense, the map is clearly relevant to the way in which regional policy and regional economic development policy would be taken forward in Wales post Brexit. What I don’t want to do, though, is to in any way close down debate about that at this point. I think there is the need for a lot of further thought, a lot of further engagement with people in the sector, about how that regional policy will be taken forward and what the geographies of that might be. If we’re trying to look at some of the upsides of Brexit, then we might say that greater geographical flexibility in the way that we deploy funds could be one of them, and that certainly has been a point made at the programme monitoring committee, where discussions of a future regional policy have already very usefully begun.
