A multi-million pound investment deal for North Wales has moved a step closer to sign-off.

A heads of terms agreement for the North Wales Growth Deal has been signed by the UK Government, Welsh Government and the North Wales Economic Ambition Board.

Both the UK and Welsh Governments have already committed £120m each with the private sector and other partners also contributing.

The North Wales Economic Ambition Board, a collaboration between the six local authorities and regional partners, has estimated that the government investment has the potential to secure 4,000 jobs and more than £500m private sector investment over the next 15 years.
