Thank you for raising both of those important issues this afternoon. The Minister with responsibility for energy, environment and rural affairs will have heard your request for the statement on agricultural shows and the Welsh Government's support for them. I just would join you in recognising the important role that agricultural shows play in our rural community life right across Wales and they are often the highlight of the year for many people. So, obviously it's disappointing when people don't have those opportunities to come together in that unique kind of way.

On the matter of PPE, I'd be grateful if you would write to the health Minister, describing the specific issue so that we can explore to what extent this is a wider spread issue or something that is more local, so that we can consider how best to respond to that particular concern. Thank you.
