Thank you, Nick Ramsay, and I have already, in answer to Huw Irranca-Davies, said that the Cabinet Secretary will make a statement. I think it’s appropriate for her to make a statement following her written statement when some of those investigations have taken place by local authorities and by Natural Resources Wales so that we can respond in terms of what may be in the planning in terms of flood alleviation works. We know that, yesterday, there were a lot of blocked culverts. Also, it’s the nature of the incident, which I think Huw Irranca referred to, that had a particularly devastating impact, not just on homes and households, but on our infrastructure. So, the Cabinet Secretary will come back with a statement following that review of the incidents over the weekend.
