Before I start my questions today, First Minister, I’d like to place on record our congratulations to the Welsh football team and the fans who did us proud in France last night. I could go on in that vein, but I’m going to move on to my questions now.

First Minister, you and I have crossed swords on many occasions about the national health service. Last night, I hosted a packed public meeting in Treorchy in the Rhondda, a community that’s due to lose its doctors’ surgery because the health board tell me there’s a shortage of doctors, which we all know about. Without getting into arguments about how many doctors we need, will you confirm that, if we leave the European Union on Thursday, the Welsh NHS will find it even more difficult to recruit doctors from overseas than it has been up until now?
