Diolch, Rhys. Any other comments from Members? Are Members content? Content. Okay. Item 4.2, P-06-1378, 'We want farm subsidies to be extended to small scale and market gardeners.' 'Most farmers receive around 50% of their income from government subsidies…

And again, thank you for travelling from Scotland to join us today; we do appreciate it. I think you've given us some steer into where we may want to go. You'll get a transcript—it'll be shared with you after today's session. Please check that for factual…

No problem. I'm just looking to Joel and Rhys for any further questions. No. Any further comments you would like to make?

Okay. Let's leave that there. If there is, after the session, it would be good to have that in writing. Peredur, you wanted to come in.

Would there be any initial improvements you could make to the Act that perhaps you would like to see if Welsh legislation came forward? I'm conscious that there's—

As I say, we struggled getting some management companies here, so we're grateful for—. I've actually written at the top of my page of notes 'written statement of service', and the question was going to be, again, you do that because it's a conscious—. You…

That's a very welcome comment, and we'll make a note of that when we write our report. In our report, we'll make specific recommendations to the Welsh Government to respond to. I wondered if perhaps you could help us in some way. What recommendations do you…

Thank you, Joel. I'll move to perhaps final questions from Members. I'll start them, and then perhaps Members may want to come in at the end. I touched on regulation in the last question to you. What does regulation look like as a possibility? Would you…

Can I just raise two points before Joel carries on? We hear, don't we, where house builders should give the information about there will be a management company coming on board that charges £300 a month, whatever, and they should do that. They may do that…

Sorry, Rhys, I will bring you in. In terms of the engagement with residents and householders, do you try and do that at the start? Is that just a business decision—you're not forced to do that?

Thank you for that. I suggested that question because it is not as simple as, perhaps, a local authority moving resource from one department to the next. Local authorities, perhaps 30 years ago, could've done that, as you suggested, but probably not right…
