Thank you, Llywydd. May I thank you for the opportunity to contribute to this debate and to move the amendment in the name of Plaid Cymru? The topic of the amendment won’t surprise many, I'm sure. It's an issue that we raise regularly as a party in this context. It is a very important issue, and that’s been reflected in the comments that we have heard in the debate thus far, namely the need to ensure that, yes, students from Wales have the best possible opportunities to go to the world’s best universities and to have those important experiences, but also the importance, then, that we do everything possible to ensure that that investment in their future brings some kind of benefit to us here in Wales.
