Indeed, and I am very familiar with that area. It wouldn’t be my first visit to Penparcau, indeed. I would ask the Member also to have a conversation with Hannah Blythyn, who is also very keen on developing structures. Flint castle is in a Communities First area in north Wales—again, people engaging in that sector of community, and embedding respect and opportunities in those fields. I will talk to Ken Skates, of course, prior to my visit, on the basis that you’ve told me that’s what the discussions may lead to. [Laughter.] I am encouraged by the Member’s positivity, but, more importantly, I’m encouraged by the residents and members of Penparcau, because they’ve seen an opportunity, post Communities First, to develop an opportunity for the future.
