Thank you very much, Deputy Presiding Officer, and I just wanted to ask the Minister if he could reply in his summing up to this particular point, because the second point is about local lockdowns and this afternoon we've had the RCT lockdown announced, or restrictions, should I say, announced. Are there any implications for the University of South Wales because, obviously, in the next two weeks there will be a huge number of students entering the RCT area if, as under normal circumstances, the start of the academic year at university was to be allowed? I'd just like to understand clearly: are there any implications for students given that, as I understand it, the University of South Wales has 22,000 students and, obviously, the main campus is in the RCT area?
