There are three things. First of all, I wonder if you can provide a Government statement on, ideally, supporting a new train station at Mynachdy. There’s no bus service to the station, in relation to the metro. The location would be by the coal sidings.

The second one is a statement about Anaya Aid, a charity run totally by volunteers; it is a real charity. I think it’s the only charity in Wales taking supplies over to Syria. They’ve no funding whatsoever, and there is a strong interest there to provide medical supplies. But, unfortunately, because of the bureaucracy, lots of medicines are thrown out unopened in many circumstances. That charity could transport those badly needed drugs to Syria.

The third one is that—I did ask you this two weeks ago, and you didn’t reply; I thought I’d wait a week. I haven’t seen a statement, but it’s about the alleged use of the ministerial car by David Goldstone. So, could you possibly update us with a statement on the use or not the use—whatever happened with the car, if it went up to Mayfair and picked him up and came back to Cardiff, or if it didn’t. I think it would be nice for us to know here in this Chamber. Thank you.
