Cardiff. I don't believe that past sporting or cultural events are relevant. OK, they created economic activity in the past, but they aren't factors in employment and GVA in 2010. You can make a case for the Tsunami Relief event at a push, but the 1958 Commonwealth Games? What relevance does it have
414:
You will notice that only one-off events that are "major-major" such as the Commonwealth Games and Tsunami Relief have been included. It would be ludicrous to include every one off festival or concert that has taken place in Cardiff; the template would be never-ending. As for the companies based

but I think that this is far too wide and ambiguous a definition. I know a number of people who live in Cardiff and work in Newport or Bristol, therefore their employers "have a direct effect on the economy of Cardiff". However, including them on this template would be a little
329:, nevertheless I'm still uncomfortable about including employers based outside the local authority - I would prefer to stick to the listings in the Cardiff Business Directory, which is clear and umambiguous. If no-one from WP Wales offers a view I'll raise the template at 415:
outside Cardiff, there is only one on the template, BAMC based at Cardiff Airport and would not exist if Cardiff weren't there. I would not recommend adding any further companies based outside the city for the same reason. So let's be sensible here.

I've removed these because I don't think that they are really relevant to the template - their number of employees and turnover is likely to be in the very small range, hence their economic contribution is likely to be negligible.

On the first, only those in Cardiff, on the third only major-major events, but in general no, on the second I am not qualified to say.--

I've removed a few public sector bodies that actually employ relatively few people locally. Cardiff Council lists major employers

argues that these are relevant as they "have a direct effect on the economy of Cardiff, regardless of local authority boundaries"
