I hear, Minister, what your international obligations are, and no-one on this side of the Chamber, or indeed anywhere in this Chamber, I would assume, would be calling on you to break such obligations, but some 300 days have passed since you made that commitment in February. Whether it be Barry or any other part of Wales, when a Minister makes such a pronouncement, it is expedient for that Minister surely to carry out as quickly as possible the due diligence that might need to be taken in that decision and come back with a decision in an appropriate time. Can you please give us a more definitive response as to when we might have the response from you, given, as I highlighted last week in this Chamber, that the First Minister indicated in his letter to me that that decision was going to be taken in November? As I said, it has been nearly 300 days plus since you made that announcement. How much more time do you actually need?
