Yes. The gold cape is famous, of course, and I’m sure the people of Mold would like to see the actual gold cape there, rather than it being commemorated in the name of a pub. [Laughter.] It was in Wrexham. The difficulty at the moment, of course, is that there’s nowhere in Mold for the cape to be exhibited, and that is what needs to be resolved first. In order for that to happen, the local authority in Flintshire could look at taking the lead and talking with us as Welsh Government to see what could be done in order to provide a facility with the right atmosphere, in terms of the atmospherics, and in terms of the right security in order to provide a home for the gold cape, even if temporary, in the years to come. We’re more than happy, of course, to work with the local authority and with local people to see how we can move this forward to bring the cape home, and for the people of Mold to be able to see the cape in its home town.
