Thank you. I'm very grateful for your opening remarks, saying that you agree in principle with the need to extend and develop older people's rights and the awareness of them both in the public and the private sectors. But can you tell me why the Welsh Government is so inconsistent when it comes to rights? Why is it that children and young people have a specific piece of legislation on the Welsh statute book to protect their rights and old people don't? Don't you consider that old people are just as valuable to society as young people, and therefore they ought to be protected by a piece of legislation too?
