Thank you. And then the explanatory memorandum suggests it will be a matter for local authorities to determine what charge to issue, depending on the circumstances of each offence. Do you agree with this, or should a more consistent national approach be taken?

Okay. Thank you for that. Because of the Welsh Government's new decision on the roads, for instance, the Chair will be aware, we have roundabouts on the A55 that were going to be removed to save a lot of the queuing going into the villages coming off those…

Thank you, Chair. Do you agree that introducing a monetary range within which fixed penalties for idling can be issued is the right approach? And, should the existing penalty charge simply be increased?

Mae twristiaeth, y sector lletygarwch, a'r sector manwerthu ar ein strydoedd mawr yn chwarae rhan bwysig iawn yma yng Nghymru. Yn wir, twristiaeth yw asgwrn cefn Aberconwy. Ar wahân i'r sector cyhoeddus, y trydydd sector, twristiaeth yw un o'r diwydiannau…

Sorry. So, basically—. We're on that one, yes. What are your views on the proposals for each action and standard in an air quality action plan to have a projected date for compliance, to be agreed with the Welsh Ministers?

Yes. Should the Bill include a requirement for the Welsh Ministers to report on progress towards delivery of the clean air plan strategy? If so, how often should progress be reported?

And, also, Healthy Air Cymru has expressed concern that the duty for designated public authorities 'to have regard to' the strategy isn't strong enough. So, do you share that view? And, if so, how could or should the duty be strengthened?
