One of the things that this has resulted in, however, is more limited time for Stage 1 scrutiny, so what are your feelings on how that time has been managed? I do take your point that sometimes, as a Minister, you have to wait to be given a slot.

Health Service Procurement (Wales) Bill: Evidence session
Right. Okay. I can see Dafydd shaking his head as well. We'll get into some more detail on that in a moment. But could I ask—? We've got procurement going on all over the place at the moment, Bills coming out of our ears. Given that the UK Government's…

So you're content that, in terms of the engagement that you've had, the discussions you've had with UK Government Ministers, they're in a happy place with the proposals here as well, yes?

Papers to note
So, if we're happy to note that, we'll go on, then, to item No. 5, papers to note. Now, there are a few here, and as per normal, if that's okay, I'll rattle through, but stop me if there's something that you want to raise. Item 5.1, we have a written…

So, we move on, then, to item No. 3, instruments that raise issues to be reported to the Senedd under Standing Order 21.2 or 21.3 that we have previously considered, and again, we have one item here only. It's item 3.1, SL(6)322, the Countryside and Rights of…
