Thank you, Llywydd. And again, I really do not understand the rationale behind this Government's thinking. You want a Bill that improves the well-being of people across Wales, for the purpose of improving economic, environmental, social and cultural well-being, yet you do not want to hear directly from any of the businesses or their employees about relevant matters. I really do think that you exclude businesses at your peril, because, ultimately, these are the ones that you will most want to voluntarily adopt your well-being goals, and the more you push them away, the less likely it will be for you to understand the barriers they face to adopting those goals. That's it, Llywydd. Thank you.
