Text

Does the Member accept that, whilst that consultation was undertaken in 2016, the Committee, during its deliberations, had a call for evidence and was able to engage with people on that? We need to strike a balance because, often, I hear from Members about the number of consultations that we undertake, rather than about our actual delivery. It is about trying to strike a balance, engage with people, get evidence and also deliver action on the ground, and we must do that in cooperation with local government, which is what we sought to do.
