Did you catch the question?

When do you expect to—

Malcolm Roughead, can you give me a flavour of the extent to which you are moving back to being a marketing organisation as opposed to being a funding delivery organisation, which was inevitable during the pandemic?

Overall, we are looking at growing an inclusive economy.

Should there be some conditionality that relates to that in the conditions for all applications?

I have a brief question for Adrian Gillespie on the criticism that there has been about the levels of contact and interface that the enterprise boards have had with the various trade organisations, including the FSB and others. Do you recognise that criticism? There is a feeling that during the pandemic, in particular, the contact was very poor.

I hope that he is there.

There are a couple of areas in which I would like to ask questions. The first question is for Malcolm Roughead. Can you provide an update as to where we are on phase 1 and phase 2 of the tourism recovery plan? Will the expected funding for phase 2 be in the scale that you would hope for?

How are you monitoring the success or failure of the different elements of phase 1?

Perhaps I am being too simplistic, but it seems to me that if you have the indicators, and all the data goes into the indicators on a comparable basis among councils, there must, if you look across the board, be something in common in the councils in which there are declining indicators. There must be something that you can put your finger on in each case and say that it is the most common factor.
