If we want to discuss in more detail the cost of politicians, maybe the Conservatives can have a word with their friend the Prime Minister—well, the Prime Minister for the time being—Boris Johnson. As we heard, more than 80 appointments to the House of Lords, and some of those against the advice of the appointments commission—that is what we have now in Westminster.

We all know that the scrutiny role of the legislature is vital to a healthy democracy. I'm very fond of the wise words of Sir Paul Silk: 

'Good scrutiny means good legislation, and good legislation pays for itself.'

We need a Senedd with the appropriate resources to scrutinise—to scrutinise over £17 billion of expenditure every year, to scrutinise significant legislation, and to conduct inquiries into the issues that matter to the people of Wales.
