I thank the Counsel General very much for his answer. The clock is, of course, ticking, and the Counsel General's action plan identifies a large number of areas where there will be legal uncertainty if this isn't resolved.

Can you tell us, Counsel General, how confident you are that Wales will have a functioning statute book if we reach the point where there is a 'no deal', fully taking on board, of course, the pressures on your Government resulting from the coronavirus crisis, which must have pulled energy and work away from this field? Are you confident that we will have a functioning statute book if the worst comes to the worst?
