I'm less concerned, frankly, about organisations like Reach, who have taken enormous resources out of Wales over the years and haven't put much more back in. There's an issue there about regulation, frankly, but we won't go there this morning. I'm interested…

And that's fascinating and I don't necessarily disagree with the thrust of what either of you have said there. My question goes further than that, and I'd like to put it in, say, twofold. First of all, culture, and culture is important in any institution—and…
