Infrastructure (Wales) Bill - Evidence session with academics
Excellent. Okay, well, I think it's probably best that we draw the session to a conclusion there. Can I thank you very much? You've significantly enriched our scrutiny of this Bill, both with your written evidence and your oral evidence today. I'm very, very…

Thank you. Very briefly, Delyth.

And you'll never capture everyone, obviously, in any process, but it's about minimising those people, really, isn't it, making sure that people feel that they've had a fair say?

Infrastructure (Wales) Bill - Evidence session with academics
No, it doesn't, I don't believe, and also it's not due for revision or renewal for another three years, I think. So, yes, there may be a bit of an abeyance in that respect. Okay, thank you. Jenny next.

Infrastructure (Wales) Bill - Evidence session with academics
Great. Diolch yn fawr iawn. Jenny.
