Prime Minister David Cameron has outlined his commitment to devolution on his first visit to Wales as leader of Great Britain.

Mr Cameron spoke to workers the GE aircraft maintenance plant in Nantgarw before he went to Cardiff Bay to meet the Assembly’s First minister and Deputy First Minister.

He also held talks with Welsh Conservative and Welsh Liberal Democrat leaders.

Speaking at the GE aircraft maintenance plant in Natgarw on Monday Mr Cameron said: “I think devolution can work, we’ve got to make it work, and it’s up to, I think, the Westminster parliament and the Welsh assembly to work out how to work together better.

“I think we need a relationship based on respect and something of a fresh start, where we say right, let’s put the past aside.

“This is a prime minister who within his first week has come here to Wales because I want to keep the United Kingdom together, I want a new start in the relationship, with the Welsh Assembly Government – let’s do that and let’s make the United Kingdom work better, and let’s make devolution work better.”
