Cabinet Secretary, can I firstly welcome the very significant investment the Welsh Government, in conjunction with Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council, is making into road safety measures, certainly in the west of my constituency, and there are a number of projects under way? In particular, at Beddau Halt in my constituency, a notorious accident black spot, the agreement now of the investment of £700,000 to resolve that is extremely welcome. That investment is a product, actually, of a campaign by local people, local residents, by councillors, and has resulted, I think, in a tremendous partnership to actually work out ways of resolving some of these accident black spots. Do you agree that this is a good way forward, with Welsh Government listening to what local people and local councillors say, and the partnership investing in resolving our accident black spots?
