Cardiff Airport access scheme moves a step closer
04.06.11
Plans for a £26.5 million scheme to improve access to Cardiff Airport took a small step forward this week when the Welsh Government was granted permission by the European Commission (EC) to use £5 million of public money on the project. Going ahead without EC approval would break competition rules.
However, a spokesman for the WAG said that a final decision on the scheme had not been taken, as there is a new Minister in charge. Responsibility for transport has moved from Ieuan Wyn Jones to Carl Sargeant. Mr Sargeant will now discuss with fellow ministers whether the money is available, and only then could discussions take place with the airport, who would be expected to fund the other £21.5 million.
