Speech: Wales and Europe in an uncertain world

Britain and Wales’ interests are best served in a reformed and reforming European Union, Secretary of State for Wales Stephen Crabb told an audience of business leaders in Cardiff on the 28 January 2016.

As the Prime Minister continued to negotiate the UK’s future relationship within the Union, Mr Crabb said that EU 'renegotiation matters in very, very significant ways – and it matters for Wales'.
