Royal Naval Armaments Depot Llangennech
As I said earlier, my hon. Friend has been extremely active in defending the aspirations of the local community. I know that she will take the matter up with the Defence Minister responsible for such matters, and we in the Wales Office will be sure to support her in her objective.

I agree that we should be creating jobs throughout the nation, and in fact we are doing so. As the hon. Gentleman will know, in west Wales and the valleys—he represents a valleys constituency, as I do—unemployment has fallen and more jobs have been created. The Llangennech example is part of a restructuring of the Ministry of Defence, and we are working with all concerned. My hon. Friend the Member for Llanelli (Nia Griffith) has visited the site, and the local Assembly Member, Catherine Thomas, is involved with the unions and work force. I do not accept the hon. Gentleman’s analysis. What would really hit jobs in Wales would be any chance of Plaid Cymru’s bankrupt economic policies holding sway there.

Jobcentre Plus Offices
I stand up for Wales every day of the week. That should be compared with Plaid Cymru, which wants to take Wales out of the United Kingdom and condemn it to misery. I should remind the hon. Gentleman that a new 300-plus-seat contact centre in Bangor—an objective 1 area near his constituency—will open next year. Staff numbers at the contact centre in Bridgend—another objective 1 area—are doubling from 150 to 300. The truth is that the picture that he paints is completely distorted, as is every other allegation that Plaid Cymru makes about Wales.
