Thank you. With regard to your last point, I am aware that, certainly, my own local authority did have funding to award to local groups if they wanted to take part in Jubilee celebrations or organise a street party, et cetera. So, I'm presuming that that's happened right across Wales. As you know, the next debate will be led by the First Minister in relation to the Jubilee.

The Minister for Social Justice works very closely with organisations to ensure that people with disabilities are able to find employment. I would have thought one of the best things we ever had in Wales was Remploy, and I think it was very unfortunate the UK Government closed it down.
