The NATO Summit has shown the world that Wales is an excellent location to invest, set up a business or host world-class events. Many Welsh businesses, including those in the tourism and hospitality sectors, have benefitted from Wales\u2019s successful hosting of the Summit.<\/p>

<\/p>

A recent report from Barclays that looked at the NATO Summit and its impact on Wales concluded that, \u201cA successful Summit will create direct and indirect business opportunities for Welsh companies for many years to come\u201d.<\/p>

<\/p>

I want to build a lasting legacy for Wales following the Summit. As part of this, the Celtic Manor will host a UK investment summit in November which will showcase Wales as a great place to invest.<\/p>

The Prime Minister has been clear that Israel has a right to self-defence but that everything must be done to minimise civilian casualties.<\/p>

An assessment of whether Israeli actions in Gaza comply with international law and its obligations under the Geneva Conventions requires an investigation on the ground. To that end the United Nations Human Rights Council has set up a Commission of Inquiry to investigate purported violations of international humanitarian and human rights laws in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including the Gaza Strip since the conflict began on 13 June.

The Electoral Commission informs me that the confirmation dry run involved matching all entries on the electoral registers against the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) Customer Information System database. Entries would be marked as green if they matched with DWP, amber if they were a partial match or red if there was no match.<\/p>

This Government is committed to helping UK businesses grow and create jobs. The NICs holiday was a temporary, targeted scheme to help start ups take on new staff within their first year of trading. Although take up was lower than expected, the holiday benefitted over 26,000 businesses and supported over 90,000 jobs.<\/p>

<\/p>

Building on the lessons learnt from the holiday, we are taking action to reduce the employer NICs burden on small businesses and have created the new Employment Allowance which is simple to administer, permanent and available to all business and charities in the UK, this is reducing their employer NICs bill by up to £2,000 each year. As a result, 450,000 employers will pay no NICs at all in 2014-15.<\/p>

<\/p>

According to the latest available figures the break down of employers that applied for the National Insurance Holiday by region, throughout the scheme is as follows:<\/p>
