The next item is the 90-second statements. There's only one today, and I call on Mabon ap Gwynfor.

Thank you very much. Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri—Snowdonia National Park—was established 70 years ago this week. Eryri was one of the first four national parks established in this state, back in 1951.

The national park authority's aim is to protect and nurture natural beauty, wildlife and cultural heritage in the area, and to promote opportunities to understand and enjoy its unique, special characteristics. It has inspired a generation of people—the people who live there, visitors, as well as artists of all kinds, as they are moved to question, discover and think about the past, present and future of this special tract of our land.

To mark this milestone, the park has commissioned the National Poet of Wales, Ifor ap Glyn, to write a poem in honour of the occasion, and I'll conclude my contribution by reading aloud the last few lines of this wonderful poem:

‘What will we learn from Eryri?

To measure ourselves against mountains;

and to change speed…

To understand that our time here is short

but our responsibility huge…

Then, as we put on our Instagram face

and take a walk, we’ll tread gently

leaving only our footprints

to burnish the path for our kids.

And we’ll smile

as we enter these rocky portals

because moments here

can enlighten lifetimes.’
