Question

Will the Minister outline the Welsh Government's engagement with the UK Department for International Trade?

Answer

Answered by Minister for Economy

The Welsh Government has positive engagement with the Department for International Trade (DIT) at a number of levels. This includes direct engagement between Ministers and regular quadrilaterals between the Devolved Administration officials and DIT at both senior level (Executive Forum) and operational level (Partnership Forum).

DIT has taken part in a number of Welsh government-led events such as our Explore Export annual conference and webinars and also works with us to provide support for exporters to attend overseas trade missions and exhibitions. This works especially well in countries where Welsh Government does not have a presence.

Our overseas teams also work alongside their in-market UK government partners to deliver support for inward investment and export activities.
