Yes. I want to talk about the position of recruitment and retention, which are incredibly important to both health and social services. I'm also aware, if only from Swansea, that there's movement from social services into health as well, because health pays…

Cyllideb Ddrafft Llywodraeth Cymru 2025-26: Sesiwn tystiolaeth 6
