Thank you, Presiding Officer. It's great when you go second and two of your three questions have already been asked. [Laughter.]

If I could ask you, Cabinet Secretary: as I understand it, at the start of this process, the department took legal opinion as to whether the proposals in the consultation on the reform of the common agricultural policy and payments to farmers in Wales met World Trade Organization conditions. Can you confirm that that opinion was given to the Government, and are you happy that the opinion that was offered to you, if it was given, does make these proposals compliant with WTO rules?
