Well, I'm glad she's had a very constructive dialogue with Pembrokeshire County Council. Now, as the leader of the house is aware, schools rely on broadband to help deliver parts of the curriculum, and it's imperative that it is available to all schools across Wales. I understand that Ysgol Llanychllwydog in Pembrokeshire is the only school in the area that is not able to receive broadband, and I'm advised that it is due to logistical challenges that are primarily due to the school's location within the boundaries of the Pembrokeshire national park. Given the circumstances, will the leader of the house, in conjunction with her colleague the Cabinet Secretary for Education, look at this particular case to investigate what scope is there to look at alternative provision for the school to ensure that the pupils are not disadvantaged by these logistical challenges?
