Commenting on the statement on regional pay from the Welsh Labour Government, Paul Davies AM, Shadow Finance Minister, said:
“I welcome the Welsh Government’s submission to the Treasury on the shortcomings of regional pay.
“The Welsh Conservative Group has made it clear that we are not in favour of regional pay, which was actually introduced to the UK by Gordon Brown’s Labour Government.
“We need action in Wales to grow the private sector and make it more competitive and I look forward to seeing Carwyn Jones’ government begin outlining how they will take up this challenge.”
