Okay. And just lastly, your aspirations to work effectively with the UK Government, how are you going to do that in relation to transport infrastructure, given that the mainline railways are still controlled by the UK Government? But we still don't have the…

Okay. Your project board proposals sound interesting. What do you think are the key infrastructure issues that we face in Wales, both in the short term and the long term, and therefore what would be your priorities in terms of how many project boards can you…

Okay. Thank you, that's useful. And could you describe how you will ensure that commissioners work effectively as a team at this very difficult time for the whole of Wales?

And a colleague earlier has already asked you about the terms of reference being far too broad, looked at by the Economy, Infrastructure and Skills Committee in 2017. How do you think you're going to reshape the terms of reference and remit of your…

Diolch. But it's better now, so, great. David, did you hear my question?

This is not a time for dithering. This winter we’re going to be reaping the consequences of not having made enough progress on either renewable energy or decarbonising our homes. So, I just wondered how the smaller, streamlined team that you're proposing is…

Blaenoriaethau ar gyfer y Pwyllgor Newid Hinsawdd, yr Amgylchedd, a Seilwaith: Sesiwn dystiolaeth 8 – yr amgylchedd a bioamrywiaeth: adferiad gwyrdd
Okay, that's interesting to know, but—[Inaudible]—to trees, and whether it's improving farmland by providing shade in very hot conditions for animals, or whether it's providing food and improving our food security. Anyway, perhaps we can talk further about—

Okay, thank you. I just wanted to come back to the whole point of trees—the right tree in the right place. Jerry, you were talking about the multi-purposes of tree cover. I represent an urban constituency, and what we need in my area is more fruit trees…

I'm not sure we've got time to go for a skills gap analysis; I'm in no doubt we do need to do that work, but surely we can recognise we've got a massive gap already and we need to get on with it. Anyway—

Thank you. I mean, clearly, there are lots of potential jobs in decarbonising our country, but we have a massive skills gap. If we are to ban anything other than passive housing, we need people who have the skills to build that housing. And, equally, if we're…

Thank you. Just as we need to be measuring our carbon emissions in everything we do, we also need to ensure that biodiversity restoration is wired into our legislation. So, what are the gaps you may have identified, certainly in the environment Act, the…

I just wanted to pick up on food that Anne mentioned earlier. How do we educate the public to understand that if we import food, or we buy food that is dependent on imported soya and corn, how do we get people to understand that this is a choice around how…

Okay. Very briefly, could you just elaborate on what you mean by 'domestic'? Because I hadn't quite understood that—your third point.

Who'd like to go first? Shall we hear from Anne first, or Jeremy? We haven't heard from Jeremy recently. Jeremy.
