Understood. Thank you so much. Thanks, Chair.

Just a sub-question, actually. You answered a few questions from the Chair and also Alun and myself; I think you mentioned that it's too early to tell, in some cases, with regard to the provision. Time-frame wise—I'm a bit OCD with time, so hence I'm asking…

Evidence Session with the Office for the Internal Market
Okay. I feel like you've answered part of the next question, but I'm going to ask that, plus a sub-question that I wanted to get into. So, to what extent is there a potential for regulatory divergence in Wales to be affected by the market access principles?…
, Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee
Evidence Session with the Office for the Internal Market
Okay. So, have you gathered any evidence on whether the market access principles are impacting on the desire to seek policy divergence or whether they’re impacting the way in which Governments develop policy, for example reaching inter-governmental agreements?

You did. That's why I wasn't going to pursue it any more. That's absolutely fine. So, has the OIM provided advice to the UK—? You both mentioned single-use plastics in your introduction and also in the answer that you just gave me. Has OIM provided advice to…

Yes, absolutely. So, does the OIM have any specific role as a result of these publications?
, Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee
Evidence Session with the Office for the Internal Market
Okay. And how has the work of the OIM responded to the Windsor framework and the recent publication of the 'Safeguarding the Union' command paper? A follow-up question is: does the OIM have any specific role as a result of these publications?

Thank you very much, Chair. Good afternoon, gentlemen. I just took what you said on board, Tim, with regard to the fact that you are advisers and not advocates, but how have you worked with the OIM panel to ensure that they are aware of devolved legislation…
