First Minister, one of the things that first-time buyers in Monmouth share with those in Taff Ely and Pontypridd is the growth of leasehold properties—properties being sold by leasehold creating a whole series of financial issues in respect of ground rent, and in respect of the subsequent reversions or when the periods of years begin to expire. Do you agree with me that the growth of leasehold, for one, is unwelcome within Wales, but secondly, that the Welsh Government should give consideration to barring or abolishing leasehold properties for the future?
