I thank the Cabinet Secretary for that. Your announcement that you are minded not to continue with Communities First has, of course, created considerable concern, particularly in community centres that are not currently delivering Communities for Work or the Lift programme or other programmes that you’ve stated will continue. So, I wonder, Cabinet Secretary, if you could offer some reassurance that, in the process of considering the way forward for community development in Wales, the role of these community centres in that position will be carefully considered, given that they do provide very valuable services that are very important to local communities across Wales.
