The interim findings of a survey conduced by Cardiff University show that 85 per cent of respondents agreed that support from the economic resilience fund was as important as furlough.

So, to be clear, we did not take the most recent decisions to move to alert level 2 without considering the business consequences or the consequences for our culture, arts and sports sectors, which is why we introduced £120 million of packages for businesses, £15.5 million for the cultural sector, and £3 million of support for affected sports. And those funds also recognised the impact of the public's more cautious behaviour that began before the measures were introduced. So, the support will take effect from 13 December, before those measures were introduced. As Rhun ap Iorwerth said, omicron is still very much with us and levels of coronavirus are still incredibly high, but I am pleased that this Government took the decisive actions that we did at the time, which allowed us to keep Wales safe and move on our path to alert level 0.

In conclusion, Llywydd, I'm proud that this Welsh Government continues with its cautious, evidence-led approach to managing this pandemic, which has made our First Minister, Mark Drakeford, the most popular political leader in the UK, who continues to have the support and confidence of the majority of people in Wales. But, like everyone else, I look forward to the gradual return to more normality in the coming weeks and I look forward to going to watch the Scarlets and Bristol Bears playing on Saturday. Diolch yn fawr.
