I thank the Member for making it in with his question there, and again raising some very valid points around the accessibility of procurement and the opportunities that it brings, not just in terms of creating decent work, but actually in supporting those smaller companies, the foundational economy, local communities. So, it's certainly something that is there at the heart of looking at procurement reform, to make sure that those opportunities are there, for companies and for the people who could potentially work for them in the future in each and every one of our constituencies and communities across the country.
