Would the Minister accept that part of the broader context to some of the questions that Suzy Davies has been asking, over a period of some years now, and part of the challenge for the Government, is to be clear as to the policy intention in terms of the investment in the film industry? Is it to attract international companies to produce more here in Wales, or is it, from an economic development perspective, to invest in Welsh companies, or is there a cultural objective, that is to have content—stories from Wales, if you wish—on the silver screen? I think, from his background in the days of Sgrîn, perhaps he would be aware of that tension that can exist. And can we have, from the new Minister, a little more clarity on the policy intentions of Government, so that we then, in scrutinising this, can assess to what extent the Government is reaching its aims and objectives?
