Thank you, Delyth. Thank you, Minister. We've covered quite a bit of the MEES, as the acronym is, so we'll move on, I think, to the optimised retrofit programme, and Joyce is going to lead us on this area.

Very briefly, if you would, Minister, and I'm going to have to move on to another subject then, Jenny.

And we will. Thank you for that. So, can I just remind Members and the Ministers as well that we are against time a little bit now, with a lot of ground to cover?

So, clearly you're hearing our concern around the need to accelerate that and to make sure that it does happen, because in your own words, it won't unlock anything unless we've got the skills to deliver some of this.

Could I just come in briefly on that, then? Because you did say earlier that you couldn't emphasise strongly enough the need for skills, obviously, because none of this is achievable without people out there to do the work. It is concerning for this committee…

Okay, who's going to help the Minister out on that one? Just indicate. Emma. You're automatically unmuted, so if you just raise your hands if you want to say anything, but—.

Yes, very briefly then, please, because we have a number of questions that we need to get through.

Welcome back to the committee. We'll continue with our scrutiny of the Minister and Deputy Minister for Climate Change. Just to note, as well, that we have some additional officials joining us as well: Emma Williams, director of housing and regeneration, and…

There we are. Okay. Thank you for that, Deputy Minister, and thank you for spending a bit of time on that, because, obviously, is of huge concern and interest to many. Instead of starting on our next section, I propose that we just take a short break, about…

Okay. Thank you for that, Andy. Just finally, then, and very briefly from me to the Deputy Minister: you restated your aim last week of reopening by the end of January. How will you reporting to us and/or the wider Senedd, really, on progress in that respect…

So, are you saying that couldn't have been anticipated, then, because it sounds as if you're saying that nobody is at fault for any of this?

Okay, thank you for that comprehensive answer. Many of us are just scratching our heads, really, as to why this was allowed to have happened, really. You've explained the process and how these issues were identified, but, of course, surely they should have…
