Very much so. Work is already under way, of course, to help deliver the Wylfa Newydd project. We announced the £20 million fund to establish an advanced manufacturing and research institute, supporting key employers like Airbus. We’ve announced plans, of course, to invest more than £200 million in the A55/A494 corridor. We’ve committed £50 million to take forward the first phase of the north-east Wales metro, and, of course, backing, a little further west, for the third crossing over the Menai. That’s in addition to £1 million-worth of funding to develop a new business hub in Wrexham supporting 100 new businesses.
