I know, but that is part of what is going on. There is a feeling that, because of the extension to 2030, we will not have any reporting, but the policy note says that the rural support plan will require that legacy schemes are reported on.

Okay, that is helpful. There will be reporting and you just have to do something technical to allow the reform to move forward. I feel like we need some diagrams. Perhaps that would be helpful.
When will we see the first rural support plan?

I am just wondering about what our papers say about the “wider Agriculture Reform Programme”. Do you use that programme to engage with wider stakeholders?

It would be good to understand how that works. Could you perhaps unpack that for us and tell us with whom you are engaging through that programme in writing?

Hang on a minute, Willie. I will bring in Katie Hagmann to respond very briefly, and then we will have to be really brief.
For the next questions, I must ask colleagues to start with Councillor Hagmann. Councillor Hagmann, can you bring in just one of your colleagues to respond, given that we are really tight for time? I know that that is difficult, because you all have valuable things to say but, as you have indicated, you can follow things up in writing.

Thanks for that—it was really helpful to get that illustration. We definitely need more time with you in the future.
I will now bring in Mark Griffin, who joins us online.

I am going to go against what I said about being pressed for time and ask you to highlight those three core principles.

It is helpful to get that clear, because we were wondering whether the core principles were about poverty and climate change.

We move on to the financial resilience of local government.
