Well, I welcome that very warmly, and if this place can speak with one voice, then I truly hope that that voice will be heard in the corridors of Whitehall and Westminster.

Finally, and to the same end, if truth be told, I hope that there will be support for this too. We do need progress with this golden opportunity that we have with the tidal lagoon. Dai Lloyd insists that it should be called ‘morlyn morlanw’ in Welsh. I’m not sure whether Dai’s terminology is trying to suggest something that isn’t quite clear, but I do like the alliteration. It’s almost ‘cynghanedd’ and it’s another reason for supporting it, if truth be told. Charles Hendry has submitted his report now to the Secretary of State, and therefore I do believe that we need to make progress and see that Wales does grasp this opportunity.

There are some things in the statement that I would welcome: the additional funding for innovation, which has been mentioned by the Conservative spokesperson—the biggest increase in funding for innovation since 1979. I think it’s £4.7 billion in addition over this period, and an additional £2 billion by 2020. We must ensure that Wales benefits from this opportunity. There is talk about the creation of a DARPA, which is the American body that led, partly, to the development of the world wide web by Tim Berners-Lee. Well, why not locate that body, which will run this new fund for industrial challenges, not in the south-east of the UK but here, in Wales?
