Thank you, Minister. There's no doubt that the Cynon valley has benefited significantly from Welsh Government funding over the past five years. Perhaps the most significant area of capital expenditure has been the continued investment in educational buildings within the area.

The Cynon valley has seen more investment from the Welsh Government's twenty-first century schools funding than any other constituency in Wales, to the tune of over £100 million, and that's something that I am very proud of indeed. This current Senedd term has seen the opening of the £22 million Coleg y Cymoedd campus in Aberdare; the £7.2 million Cwmaman Primary School; and in just September of last year, the £10.2 million Hirwaun Primary School. Minister, would you agree with me that this represents a substantial investment in our children and young people, which will make a real difference to their educational attainment and future life prospects?
