  • Jill Evans MEP statement on former Burberry site development

    November 13th 2009

    “This is real welcome news for the Rhondda, and a major boost for the area.

    I gave this project my total support from day one, and raised the issue of European funding when I met with Ieuan Wyn Jones, the Deputy First Minister. I’m really pleased that he was able to secure that funding, and help progress this much-needed project in these very difficult times.

    I hope this will be a springboard for the community to develop the local economy further, and move towards a more sustainable future.”

    Diwedd/End.
