Fascinating. Alun, I'm going to return to, if we have time, issues around the PPA and so on. But do you want to delve a bit further into government?

Thanks, Pred. We're going to pick up on some of the issues that you might've raised already, and dive a bit deeper into them as we go along, and we might go back and forth a little bit. James, over to you.

Who would like to come in on that? Go on, Catherine.

That's really interesting. Are you okay, Alun?
, Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee
UK-EU governance inquiry: Evidence session
And Catherine, I just wonder, extending Alun's point, whether you see that this is something that could evolve, whether it's simply that we're coming out of some white-water times of getting through that, and this could evolve into something that is more…

Thank you very much, and we'll get into some real detail of this in moment, but, Simon, is there anything you'd like to add to that?

And with that, we're going to move to the first substantive item on the agenda this afternoon, and it's the first of our witness evidence sessions on UK-EU governance. We'll also be carrying on with this next week as well, with two sessions. But this is our…

But would we accept, because there's a real challenge—? If what you're saying is that's what 'good' looks like, and we should be doing that in large spatial areas—
