Thank you. Yes, that's an important point. Peter, briefly, and then we'll come to Joyce.

Sorry, as well, don't feel obliged that all of you have to answer all the questions. Clearly, if you've got anything, indicate, but otherwise—

Okay, thank you. I'm just mindful we're 25 minutes in, we're nearly a third of the way through, and we've covered two out of the nearly 20 areas that we wish to cover. So, maybe Members could be brief and maybe answers could be sharp and to the point. Huw…

So, would you share that characterisation, then, in terms of, 'Yes, it's much better than it was previously, but there are still issues ongoing'?

Ymlaen â ni at yr ail eitem, felly. Achos y bore yma, wrth i ni baratoi ar gyfer gwaith craffu blynyddol Trafnidiaeth Cymru, a chraffu cyffredinol ar drafnidiaeth gyda'r Dirprwy Weinidog Newid Hinsawdd, mi fyddwn ni'n cynnal sesiwn dystiolaeth y bore yma mewn…
