M4 queues 'let Wales down' - CBI Wales chairman Mike Plaut

The new chairman of the CBI in Wales has said congestion on the M4 would "embarrass" the Victorians.

Mike Plaut said infrastructure problems needed to be sorted out and competitors "must be laughing" at the time it was taking to build the £1bn motorway relief road around Newport.

Mr Plaut said Wales had huge potential but was not quite reaching it and it would take "very little" to transform.

Politicians of all parties needed to look at new ideas, he told BBC Wales At Work presenter Brian Meechan.
