I’m pleased to hear that the Counsel General will be going to Haverfordwest and will be travelling to west Wales, but may I ask him—? He will, I’m sure, be aware that developing the marine plan and a number of marine conservation areas stems directly from European legislation, and I think it’s extremely important that such legislation is implemented by the Welsh Government. There are a number of people who have suggested that that legislation is about to be breached by the fact that the Welsh Government hasn’t responded promptly to that legislation. Will the Counsel General therefore give the Assembly a guarantee that we are in no danger of facing infraction proceedings from the European Commission?
