Cabinet Secretary, on a day when we await the results of the Tata Steel ballot in relation to the steel industry and the future of that, it’s important that we clarify the position on business rates with steel. It has been often raised in this Chamber about the support the Welsh Government can give. Have you had further discussions with UK Government colleagues or EU officials in relation to what the Welsh Government can do to reduce the business rates? Because that is an important factor to ensure that we have a level playing field across Europe.
