Well, thank you, but I don't really think that helps because the point I'm trying to make is that 'Senedd', although it's a perfectly acceptable word, it's not accessible for a lot of people. I mean, how many people out there actually instantly understand what 'Member of the Senedd' means? If you've been in connection with the Assembly for some time, yes, you might—you'll be familiar with the word, but—. This is about understandability and accessibility.

So, however, having said all that, I do actually support the general principles of the Bill, and with that, I'll finish.
