I thank Mark Isherwood for his ingenuity in converting a press release into a policy in that question. As he absolutely knows, there is no sign-off at all for the funding committed to the north Wales transport infrastructure, which I think we would all accept is needed.

He describes, I think, in his question ways of working between a Welsh Government and a UK Government. By the way, he doesn't list any of the investments that the Welsh Government has made into any of those projects, which I think probably reveals the motivation behind the question, if I may say, in the context of an election. The point is that there is much more scope for the Welsh Government and the UK Government to work together. There have been very good examples, actually—some of them he's listed in his question. I look forward to seeing a Welsh Labour Government here in Wales being able to work with a UK Labour Government in Westminster to build even more on that joint working so that we can deliver for all parts of Wales.
