On the pesticides, sorry. [Laughter.] I've gone off at a tangent because it reminded me, sorry.

Okay. So, Wildlife Trusts Wales highlights that local authorities have not received any guidance to help achieve the global biodiversity target to reduce pesticide use by 2030. Are local authorities developing their own policies on pesticide use and what are…

Okay. And you've talked about the variation between local authorities in terms of implementation of the biodiversity duty. Gwyn, is that something that you feel as well?

Okay. You all nodded about the three, so I get that. Earlier, we mentioned the section 6 biodiversity duty. What's your experience of it and has the duty had any impact, do you think, in terms of positive outcomes?

The Campaign for National Parks were talking about using our designated landscapes to improve biodiversity, because it's not shown an improvement in those areas, even though they're designated. Your thoughts on that.

Their funding is received differently, I believe. Is it through NRW and local authorities, rather than directly from Welsh Government?

Do you think it would help if a biodiversity officer or somebody within a local authority would help them? It would be acceptable across all service areas then, whether it’s highways, or whatever, education. It would help all of those service areas within a…

So, the Welsh Government intends to introduce a duty on public authorities to contribute to the delivery of biodiversity targets. Local authorities used to have to have a local biodiversity action plan, didn’t they, before. So, do you agree that the proposal…
