I again thank Mr. Llewellyn. I mentioned local authorities. Too often, local authorities and TII seem to exist quite separately. However, TII will occasionally send a memo to a local authority asking its road design office to progress a project. The road design office in County Clare is staffed by two or three people. It is over-resourced for what it needs be able to achieve. At times, we need a better alignment between the hierarchy in TII and what is happening at county level. Mr. Llewellyn may be able to champion that. I would appreciate if some of his colleagues in-house might be able to come back to me, perhaps by email, on some of those matters in the coming days.

I wish Mr. Llewellyn the best of luck with TII. We will not wish Wales as much luck with the Six Nations but we all love watching the Welsh team perform.
