Cabinet Secretary, I must say that in yesterday’s final budget debate I was very pleased to hear you refer to the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015, but I have to say, when the environment budget was before the committee, it seemed to me in our scrutiny of the budget line that the Act was used much more to interpret the existing budget than to actually shape it. I do hope in the future we will be able to see how lines differ and go up and down and programmes end or get expanded, relating to the priorities in what I think is a very, very useful Act.
