Thank you very much, both. The committee will move on now, but if there's anything that we need to take up with you in writing, we'll write to you with that. But thank you very much.

Thank you both very much. I'll just check that there aren't any final questions. No, I think that's a good note to end on.

Diolch yn fawr iawn, Adele. And just on that final point, if I may, that's such an important point about the workforce—that of course, yes, this is about those phenomenal individual voices and these wonderful musicians, but also that workforce. Will you, when…

Thank you for that. I think, as a committee, I can speak for us, and I'm sure I speak for the members of the committee who haven't been able to be here today, as well, that we do appreciate a lot of the words that you've said in terms of the vital importance…

Diolch yn fawr iawn. As a committee, on the points that you were just making about the culture being what makes life worth living, I think, frustratingly for us, we come up time and again against people seeing the arts and culture as something that is nice to…

Diolch, Laura. I know Heledd wants to come back in with some more questions on funding. Could I just check, before Heledd comes back in, as, Christopher, you just said that the company would need an extra £1 million to be found in savings? Earlier, you said…

Thank you very much for that. And so, in terms of what is needed now, in excess of—. I know that the figure of £1 million has been mentioned in some places but not elsewhere. Is £1 million what you would—?
