You make a welcome reference to post offices. Of course, I remember the introduction of the fund you referred to, but we didn't then have the post office banking framework agreement between the post office and 28 banks, providing access to services on the high street where they have a branch. Do you agree that we should also be encouraging, where practical, the Welsh Government to be working with that framework so that they can support our local post office branches?
