We won't be opposing these regulations at all, but in the responses to the Government's work on this there were some queries raised about the capacity of the ICT system that will underpin the registration and annual return system. I think the response was that the information had been collated and passed to relevant officials and Care and Social Services Inspectorate Wales. I appreciate that you may not be able to answer this question in the Chamber today as you're new in post, Minister, but what confirmation have you had that the IT system can now cope with the requirement of these regulations, because we're all familiar with very benign, unhelpful legislation which has fallen short just because of poor delivery? Thank you.
