Indeed, you're right, it's even broader than Government, isn't it? Ceri.

There we are. Okay. Sir David wants to come in, also Ceri, and then we'll move on to Jenny then for the next—

It's important for you to know, yes. Okay. Huw, you wanted to pick up on this.

Gwaith craffu blynyddol ar Gyfoeth Naturiol Cymru
There we are. Okay. And, in being clear around what's expected, I suppose it gives you clarity then around what isn't so much a priority to deliver.
20 Ionawr 2022 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Gwaith craffu blynyddol ar Gyfoeth Naturiol Cymru
Okay. Thank you. We've spent quite a bit of time on that, but it's well worth it. And, as we were reminded earlier as well, we will have a specific session looking at water quality in a fortnight's time, so, obviously, we'll be able to delve even further into…

Thank you, Huw. I think we all concur with those comments. Carolyn, did you want to come in here on the NVZ issue?

Thank you. There's a lot to take in from both Clare and Ceri's comments there. Huw wants to come in, and I think Carolyn as well is particularly interested in the NVZ stuff, but we'll go to Huw first.

Thank you, Carolyn. I just wanted to ask about the new corporate plan. Clearly, you have or had a corporate plan, which was I think from 2018 running up to 2022. It's been rolled on to 2023, so I don't know if you can update us on when we might expect to see…

Okay. Before I bring Carolyn in, I'm picking up quite a positive vibe around a bespoke remit letter for flooding. Is that something that you particularly want to replicate across other areas, or would it get a bit too complicated then?

So, just for clarity, then, the term of Government letter or remit letter, will that replace annual remit letters, or will they still be drawn up—

Thank you. Yes, you mentioned the remit letter. I was just wondering, where are we at in terms of an updated or a concurrent—

There we are. Okay, well, that brings us to the end of our allocated time. So, can I thank the Minister and the Deputy Minister, and your officials, for the evidence you've given us this morning? There are a few other areas that we didn't manage to cover, but…

No, no, you're right. Although they would probably decry the fact that they had to spend any income in year, as opposed to smoothing it out, maybe, over three to five years, which is another discussion, I'm sure, you're having with them, and another issue…

Okay. Thank you, Minister. Just for avoidance of doubt, Natural Resources Wales are actually returning receipts, aren't they? I think they returned nearly £10 million last year.
