World Heritage Sites: Wales

Question

What discussions she has had with Cabinet colleagues on the promotion of UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Wales.

Answer

I was delighted to see the announcement that Aberystwyth has become Wales’ first UNESCO City of Literature and first UNESCO Creative City.

Our Welsh culture and heritage are a source of great pride, and would like to congratulate Aberystwyth on being recognised, as Wales continues to grow its UNESCO presence internationally.
