First Minister, ports are a very important part of transport in Pembrokeshire, and particularly the link between Wales and Ireland. With Brexit happening this week, I am concerned that we will see less transport in terms of goods carried between Britain and Ireland, and also in terms of passengers, with a lot of talk about developing more direct links between France and the Republic of Ireland in order to avoid Britain once we have left the European Union. That will undermine Pembroke Dock and Fishguard. So, what steps are you taking as a Government and jointly with the UK Government to ensure that we keep transport between the ports of Pembrokeshire?
