Okay. Can I just push on? There are a couple of things I wanted to touch on.

Sure. But I just wonder if, beyond information sharing, there's a role in understanding what are the pain points that are preventing those five from joining, and are there things that can be done at a co-ordinated level to remove those pain points.

And some of it will be about capacity, won't it? As you say, Emma, others will just have different priorities for the capacity that they have. So, it's good to hear about the handbook, but the approach that you were describing there seems a little disparate…

Sorry, Rhondda Cynon Taf. Quite right. So, in terms of the role they have in terms of working with local authorities who may have barriers, what do they do to try and help local authorities overcome any difficulties they may have?

Sure, I'll come back to the pipeline. First, just to better understand why quite a significant part of Wales is missing out on the scheme. As you say, these are local government choices, but it would be interesting if some work was done to tease out whether…

Thanks. I just want to go through the approach to empty homes and the various different schemes that you have. So, to begin with, the scheme that you have for individual home owners, the grant scheme. You obviously have a mix of grants and loans. Just in…

Can I just finish specifically on that? Because you've mentioned, I think, the national museum and the Welsh Government—the national library, sorry, and the Welsh Government. Have you looked beyond those for sharing those?

Excuse me, can I just finish this? You're special pleading the whole time that—. I don't doubt that you're very efficient and you're doing a tough job with limited resources and that's frustrating. I completely understand that; I'm not questioning the value…

Well, with respect, cyber protection is not something specific to Cadw and the royal commission. That's a skill that can be shared across other bodies. But, if you're only looking to collaborate with one body, you're unlikely to come up with much room for…

I'm just wondering, in terms of specifically how you might restructure to share functions, limiting yourself to just one other body is probably not the most optimum of search criteria.
