I thank the Member for her question. She makes an important point. The local economic partnerships are about empowering areas to address their specific needs and align them with the departmental priorities. There will, of course, be opportunities for all councils and all areas in them to do that. I know that every MLA and every councillor will make the case for their area: that is healthy. It is really positive that those partnerships are being established and that there will be the ability to shape the economic priorities of local areas. We will review those as they roll out.
