Thanks, Chair. Thanks to everybody for attending today. Just regarding the Bill, a little bit further I'm going to probe. Residential outdoor education isn't actually defined on the face of the Bill. What's your view on this? Does it, or could it, lead to an…

Thank you. It's just in regard to regional placements. Does the work across regions extend to, in certain areas, cross-border collaboration? I'm thinking that a child that might be taken into care in Boundary Lane in Saltney Ferry, Flintshire, may have family…

And just one final question, if I may, Chair, and it's in regard to the £29 million remaining funding for eliminating profit from the system. Is that being allocated to the 22 local authorities individually, or is it being allocated on a regional basis? If…

Thank you. Your written evidence states that £2.9 million will be spent in the final year of the sustainable social services grant scheme, and much of this relates to services that prevent children from entering into the care system in the first place. Are…

Thanks, Chair. Thanks, Ministers. I'd like to ask some questions about the social care workforce for children, if I may. So, the question is specific for Julie Morgan. The Welsh Local Government Association and Barnardo's have both raised concerns about…

Yes, thanks, Chair. Just to expand on your views on the Bill, residential outdoor education isn’t actually defined in it. Do you think that the lack of a definition could result in an inconsistency across schools?
