When you mention postcode, do you mean the first two parts of the postcode, like SA6, or do you mean the whole postcode? If you have the whole postcode, it gets very close to identifying people.

Diolch. The explanatory memorandum accompanying the Bill does not discuss human rights. What account have you taken of human rights in preparing the Bill?

Diolch yn fawr, Gweinidog. If I can start with the first question, are you satisfied the Bill is within the Senedd's legislative competence?

Can I move on to item 2, evidence on the Visitor Accommodation (Register and Levy) Etc. (Wales) Bill? Can I welcome the Minister, Mark Drakeford, to the committee? Would you like to introduce your officials, or would they like to introduce themselves?

Well, speaking as someone who’s a great fan of Flying Start, I thank you for that, and I think that one of the things this committee could do, and my colleagues agree with me, is try and tease out from the finance Minister exactly what the funding of Flying…

Okay. Thank you. The final question from me: to what extent does the draft budget address your priorities? What would you have liked to have seen in the draft budget, and what would like to take out to fund it?

And on the distribution, sometimes it tells you more about age than it does about relative poverty, and older people tend to be better off, only because they tend to have grown-up children and they tend not to have all the costs associated with a child.

Okay. Thank you very much for that. Tell me if I've got this wrong, really, on transport, you're saying we're spending a higher proportion on trains than buses, and the poorer people are the ones who use buses.

Thank you; that's very helpful. Distribution analysis reports state that the budget provides far greater impact upon the 20 per cent of the population who have the least. What are your thoughts on this analysis, and what populations do you think could have…

Can I start off with housing? I agree with you entirely that we need much more council housing. I was one of the people who came from a generation who benefited from the provision of good-quality council housing. It's unfortunate that Treasury rules don't…

Oh, I didn't know you were speaking about national insurance as part of the workforce. Yes, certainly. On the national insurance increase, you're going to get that covered by the Welsh Government, do you expect? Some of the people who contract to you won't…
