I thank the Minister. I was pleased to attend and speak last week at an event organised by the Royal Society and the Learned Society of Wales on the matter of the challenges and opportunities for research and development and innovation in Wales. One of the many aspects we considered were the Reid recommendations, including the need to increase the visibility and influence of Welsh research by creating a new Welsh research and innovation London office to act on behalf of the Welsh Government and Welsh Ministers in the interests of the Welsh research and innovation community, but also to identify and promote funding opportunities arising at a UK and international level, to attract talent and investment into the Welsh research and innovation community from the rest of the UK and internationally, and, of course, to increase the visibility of Welsh research and innovation outside of Wales.

So, Minister, in a post-Brexit situation where we'll face the disappearance of EU funding streams and the advent of a more competitive bid process funding landscape for R&D and innovation in the UK, it'll be crucial for us to punch above our weight in quality and in quantum. So, in her role, what can the Minister do, alongside the Minister for Education, to attract research and development and innovation funding and expertise to Wales?
