Ahead of the development, by the Welsh Government, of a new economic strategy for Wales later this year, the National Assembly for Wales’s Committee on the Economy, Infrastructure and Skills will consider alternative perspectives on what it might include.

The Committee will hold a series of thematic seminars in the Spring term, and will invite experts to attend.

The first seminar will consider the role of women in the economy. Later sessions will look at quality of work, place, the environment and the foundational economy.

The seminars will be held at the Senedd, National Assembly for Wales, Cardiff Bay. The Committee’s aim is to trigger wider debate and influence Welsh Government thinking on their Economic Strategy.
