In respect of the Circuit of Wales, how much public money has been paid out in total? When was it paid? How was it paid? To whom?

A property development grant of £2m was paid to Heads of the Valleys Development Company between December 2012 and February 2013. Subsequently no further payments have been made direct by Government, though a loan provided by the company's bankers was in part underwritten by a Welsh Government guarantee. A payment of £7. 334m was made to the bank under that guarantee in May 2016.
