Recommendation
The Minister for Investment should engage with existing intergovernmental infrastructure to co-ordinate with Welsh Government ministers. Interministerial groups should be used to facilitate discussions about challenges as they develop and to agree solutions. We recommend that the next meetings of the Intergovernmental groups on Trade and Business and Industry take place in autumn 2026, to provide time for incoming ministers in the devolved administrations to be appointed to their posts. Thereafter, we recommend that the UK Government ensures that these intergovernmental groups meet regularly and consistently, as they are an important vehicle to support intergovernmental collaboration. The Minister for Investment should regularly attend these meetings. (Recommendation, Paragraph 72) 34
