I wonder whether, Catherine, as the new auditor general, that's something you've reflected on at all, in terms of how you quantify some of those savings and report on those more transparently. 'Transparently' is the wrong word, sorry, but more readily…

Okay, thank you. So, a significant part of your report is in relation to key performance indicators, the KPIs; I know colleagues have some questions around those. Elfed, do you want to come in first on that?

Thank you for that. There's accountability and there's responsibility, and you used the word 'accountability' there, which I think is appropriate, because, of course, the responsibility for the previous performance could be with the previous Auditor General…

Can I build on that slightly? I appreciate your response, Deputy Minister. Do you have a feel, or do your officials have a feel, as to how much of those in that NEET category—that it may be an employability thing rather than a skills thing? I'm wondering in…

We've mentioned a few issues here, obviously, around NEETs, throughout these two hours we've had together, and then the role of apprenticeships and skills. It strikes me we don't often talk much about employability as an issue, so you may have the…

Forgive me, the issue actually is the limited number of options of apprenticeships in Wales. So, whilst, yes, it is controlled at UK level, the choice of which courses are available in Wales is a decision for us here in Wales. So, currently, there are just…

On the apprenticeship levy—and thank you for your response there, Deputy Minister—one of the challenges that some employers have, those who are paying into the levy, because they meet the threshold required to, is that the apprenticeship options don't suit…
