Thank you. It was clear from this Chamber last week, following the important statement by the Chair of the Culture, Welsh Language and Communications Committee, that there is a clear and critical consensus in this place and outside of the chaotic stalemate in Westminster that Wales must continue, as promised by those opposite, to receive the very same level of funding that it would have had had the UK remained in the European Union—not a penny less. And we will all monitor this avidly. What discussions, therefore, has the Welsh Government had with the UK Government to reiterate to them the importance of continuing funding for the arts in Islwyn?
