Public Appointments: Evidence session 2
Yes, that's absolutely fine. So, with regard to the Welsh Government's diversity and inclusion strategy for public appointments, it's going to run until the end of this year, so what are the key priorities and actions you'd like to see included in any future…

Fantastic. Thank you very much, Chair.

Do you think the Welsh Government is doing enough to support you right now?

I know Mike has touched upon feedback. I want to go back—I think you've answered the question, anyway, that I was going to ask you, regardless. But I just wanted to speak to you about—. I know you mentioned previously that it would be really good and worth…

Okay. Thank you so much, Chair.

Okay. I just wanted to ask one final sub-question to what I've just already asked. In relation to some of the previous answers, you mentioned that there was a lot of Welsh Government involvement, particularly in the board and making decisions and moving…
