Motion under Standing Order 17.42 to exclude the public from the remainder of the meeting
And that does bring us to the point where I ask Members if you're happy, under Standing Order 17.42, to resolve to exclude the public for the remainder of the meeting, so we can continue with business in private. Are you happy to do so? We are, and we move…

Papers to note
Okay, we'll go on then to item 7, which are the papers to note, and we have several here. And again, I'll rattle through these, but, by all means, shout at me if there's something you want to raise as we go through, but we can return to these in private…

Food (Wales) Bill: Evidence session
Diolch yn fawr iawn. We'll have just a short pause. Don't leave your seats, Members. We just need to rearrange, as the Minister and her officials leave, our clerking team as well. So, we'll just pause for a second.
, Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee
Food (Wales) Bill: Evidence session
Okay. Well, look, we're going to have to draw to a close. We've gone over time with you, so thanks for staying with us. We strayed a little bit into policy; it's hard not to, though, on a Bill like this. You probably picked up as well, Minister, that we have…
, Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee
Food (Wales) Bill: Evidence session
Okay. Brilliant.
, Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee
Food (Wales) Bill: Evidence session
Before, Minister—. Because we've run slightly over time now, and I want to let you get away as well, but before you do, can I just bring in James as well, because it might be related to this?
, Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee
Food (Wales) Bill: Evidence session
Okay. Alun.
, Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee
Food (Wales) Bill: Evidence session
There is plenty of time for other committees—. But I think getting the answers to some of these things, as in where they're going to be satisfied or where they are currently being satisfied within policy, will be an important thing. Alun. Sorry.

, Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee

, Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee
Food (Wales) Bill: Evidence session
Okay, thank you for that. We've only got a few minutes left, but we have got a few minutes, so I'm going to go to James and then Alun. Sioned, if there's anything else you want to bring in, feel free as well there. James.
, Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee
Food (Wales) Bill: Evidence session
Okay. Could I ask—again, I'm going to be careful how I phrase this, but—if this Bill were to proceed, are there any amendments that you would seek to put to it to improve the Bill?
, Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee
Food (Wales) Bill: Evidence session
Okay. You've put that across very strongly and clearly today in your answers. Could I ask—and I've got to be careful of the way that I word this now, because I know your pushback is going to be, 'This is Peter Fox's Bill, not the Welsh Government's Bill'…
