Thank you for that answer, Llywydd. I've been looking at a study from the University of Cambridge's Centre for the Future of Democracy, and that suggests that the number of people in the UK who are dissatisfied with democracy stands at nearly three out of five. The centre has tracked views on democracy since 1995, and this is the highest recorded level ever. In a context where turnout in devolved elections tends to be lower than for UK-wide general elections, how is the Commission engaging with partners to promote awareness, understanding and participation ahead of next year's Senedd elections?
