Thank you for that intervention. Yes, certainly, I'm not saying, by any means, that there are not provisions that we wouldn't welcome. I just think that, on the whole, there are too many things that we think are missed opportunities. But, of course, there will be some things, like those that you mentioned, that we would welcome.
So, to close, Llywydd, there is an uplift in this year's settlement, but although it's a step in the right direction, it's still insufficient to even maintain current local authority provision, following decades of cuts, which is why we in Plaid Cymru feel we have no choice but to vote against the local government funding settlement today.
