There you go—I'm unmuted. Thank you very much, and thank you all for being here today. So, I'm just going to ask some questions about breeding now, cat and dog breeding, and just to start, really, by getting all of your thoughts on the implementation of the…

Thank you, Chair. So, I'm going to ask some questions about climate change and climate action, which is very apt considering we have COP26 happening at the moment. So, specifically, the Welsh Government recently launched its 'Net Zero Wales' carbon budget for…

Thank you, Chair, and thank you, everyone, this morning. We've touched on an awful lot here and I just wanted to drill down a little bit more into what some of you have said about the UK framework for farm support. So, the Minister recently told us that a…

Thank you. Just a couple of questions, then, quickly, on the Jobs Growth Wales+ scheme that you mentioned. Can you set out for us what makes this scheme distinctive from the legacy schemes that it's replacing and how it improves on them?
