Diolch yn fawr iawn, Llywydd. This evening, I'm delighted to have the opportunity to bring forward my short debate. It's my first short debate, actually, on an extremely important issue, which is sport in north Wales, ensuring opportunity for all. And I've agreed—generously, of course—to give at least one minute of my time to Tom Giffard, Carolyn Thomas, Gareth Davies and Ken Skates, to whom I'm grateful. I'm going to approach this in three parts this evening. First of all, I'm going to talk more broadly about the importance of sport; secondly, I want to talk about the challenge in north Wales specifically; and then, thirdly, some of the opportunities that we could look at to see these challenges resolved.
