I thank the delegates for their presentations. There is a lot in them and I commend all of them on the good work being done. We talk about some of it as if it was innovation. I was working remotely in London almost 20 years ago without any help in terms of enterprise or anything else. It was just the way it worked. I travelled into the city one day a week and worked from home in Rayleigh the other days, with no fuss. We have an awful lot of catching up to do. It is certainly the way forward here and just needs to be hurried up.

I have a couple of questions. How much funding has been allocated to the LEOs since they were started in 2014, including to meet accumulated staffing and administration costs?
