The debate takes place in accordance with the protocol agreed by the National Assembly last year. This is the second time we will have followed this procedure, ensuring that our budget process reflects our new fiscal responsibilities. My aim is to cover three main areas this afternoon. Firstly, I will set out some of the inescapable context in which today's draft budget was developed. Secondly, I hope to set out a series of changes that I intend to make to the draft budget published on 2 October. These changes will be reflected in the final budget, which will be laid on 18 December. Where there are changes to plans for the current year, these will be reflected in the second supplementary budget for 2018-19. The changes to plans are largely the result of the scrutiny process that has followed since the draft budget was first laid. I'd like to thank the Finance Committee and the other Assembly committees for their work in scrutinising the draft budget and for the reports and recommendations that provide the foundation for today's debate. Dirprwy Lywydd, my third intention will be to provide a first response to that scrutiny process, focusing in particular on the report of the Finance Committee published last week.
