answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/11/2017 answer text <p>Leaving the EU will allow us to shape our own ambitious trade and investment opportunities and put the UK, including Wales, at the forefront of global trade and investment. It is important that trade policy reflects the needs and individual circumstances in Wales and I will ensure we draw on the right knowledge and expertise to make that happen. I hold regular discussions with the Secretary of State for International Trade and I, as a member of the Trade Committee, and my officials, have regular contact with the Department for International Trade’s broader work and analysis. We will continue to ensure that full and proper consideration is given to the economic impact on Wales as trade policy develops.</p> answering member constituency Vale of Glamorgan answering member printed Alun Cairns question first answered 03/11/2017 10:02:05 answering member 4086 label Biography information for Alun Cairns
