Who wants to pick that up, whether from a college, a lecturer or a student perspective?

Does David Belsey or Matt Crilly want to come in on that question?

Perhaps it should be introduced more rapidly, Shona—is that what you are saying?

If nobody else wants to come in on student support, does any member of the committee have any final, lingering questions that they want to ask of the witnesses while they are here?

No one is indicating that they do.

Interaction with the business community was mentioned, and I know that Audrey Cumberford is the co-author of a report that addressed the colleges’ relationship to the economy and which spoke about the extent to which more could be done to build better relationships with the small and medium-sized enterprises sector. Audrey Cumberford, do you want to come in briefly on that point?
