Okay. All right. The Regeneris report notes that, with fund management fees at the upper end of the industry standard range and the ability to retain both arrangement and management fees, it raised a question about the appropriateness of the level at which…

Can I just ask you a quick question? Sorry, I knew you were going to carry on, but you mentioned that the £7.7 million, you managed to get that lowered—how much did you get it lowered to? I think, just for the benefit of the committee, we'd like to know.

What is the threshold, if you don't mind me asking?

Thank you so much. Gentlemen, I'm going to be asking you some questions about the fund manager's entitlements, particularly when the plans were going ahead. So, was the fund manager entitled to any share within the partnership’s assets upon closure, and, if…

Thank you so much, Chair. I was actually going to ask exactly the question that you asked, which was just to give that figure, so thank you for providing that. Just talking about the accounts, going forward, I'm very new to the committee, I think I'm the baby…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Deputy Minister for Climate Change
Over the past few weeks, I—and I'm sure many other Members too—have had hundreds of calls, e-mails, and messages from people all across Wales who are quite frankly livid. And this vote is not solely just about 20 mph and speed limits; it's about all of the…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Deputy Minister for Climate Change
On top of that, you're running our train network into the ground, with Transport for Wales deemed to have the worst customer satisfaction for train operators in the UK. For many, in all four corners of Wales, getting the train is a painful experience, with no…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Deputy Minister for Climate Change
That's fine, that's fine—[Interruption.] I'd like to be able to continue in peace, if that's okay. We've seen Labour MPs at the other end of the M4 trying to discredit the petition, saying it's an abomination, that people outside of Wales are signing it…

Questions to the Minister for Economy
Thank you so much. Minister, I've heard from many businesses over the last few weeks and days in the run-up to the scheme's introduction, including a parcel delivery firm. They've been looking into the extra costs that they face as a result of this…

Questions to the Minister for Economy
Thank you for that answer, Minister. This week, Labour's money-making blanket 20 mph speed limit scheme has come into force, and the public's concerns firmly remain, with nearly 270,000 people signing a petition to have the policy reversed. I've heard from…
